Quiet time with Jesus today. OMG. OMG.

I'm building a new blog, working toward that end at least - a "red word"
version of Jesus' words in the bible.  His words are all I've been interested
in within the Bible for a decade or so, yet I find it extremely difficult or
impossible to find just his words anywhere.

Sooooooo, I'm making a site JesusTheFirstChrist.blogspot.com . 
Step one I've found a word doc version
of the New American Bible (Catholic - good anyway! :-)   ) and I'm red lining
His words.  Listening to magnificent Christ-mass music at the same time.
Only problem is all the crying that wafts over me.

Step 2 I'll add his words to the blog.  No idea how fast it will progress.

Love you all.  Much.

Merry Christ-mass!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS! From our Christlike Nancy.

The Christ is reborn in me today.

As I celebrate the birth of Jesus today, I give thanks for His life, example and teachings.

He expressed the full potential of the Christ, leading the way for me to follow, telling me

I can do the things He did. The divinity in Jesus is also the seed of potential in me.

On this day of rebirth and new beginnings, I acknowledge my birthright as a child of the Most High.

I give thanks for the journey to this place of opportunity and for those who have traveled with me--

my teachers in many forms. All that I have experienced, the challenging and the sublime, has

brought me to this moment of awareness that Christ in me is my hope of glory.

The Christ is reborn in me today.

Let us go now to Bethlehem and see this thing that has taken place,
which the Lord has made known to us.--Luke 2:15

CHRISTMAS, I DIDN'T SEE THE MIRACLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TILL THIS MORNING!!!!!!

Jesus wasn't the Miracle. 

Jesus was the RESULT you'd EXPECT from the Miracle!

So what is this Miracle I just "got?"

No, it isn't the made-up stuff about the "virgin birth," winged
angels, and the like.  That's make believe, and it has killed
over 1900 years time, and millions of people.

It wasn't that there was something special about baby
Jesus per se - THERE WAS NOT.  He was just like any other,
EVERY OTHER baby.

Know what It was??????????  I didn't see it either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Miracle was, that for whatever set of reasons, people
from all over the world saw that this baby was precious,
more precious than any treasure, and they dropped their
selfish lives, left their over-privileged biological families,
and at extreme physical sacrifice, out of Love, lavished
their Love on the underprivileged baby Jesus, and his biological family, WHO
WERE AMONG THE LEAST OF THESE OUR FAMILY born in
the streets - poor - among the poorest.  And of course, that
is what Healthy, Loving Family does, right?  Focuses on,
devotes itself NOT to the MOST of these in the Family,
but the Least, the Needy, the Sick, the Poor IN THE FAMILY!

The Miracle was that strangers, foreigners, "enemies,"
not-family... realized that they WERE One Family - no double
standards - and for a moment they LIVED IT.

So Jesus never knew any different!  HE THOUGHT EVERYONE
WAS HIS BROTHER AND SISTER, CUZ THAT IS HOW HE CAME
INTO THE WORLD!  And that's why Jesus remained the
Christ (repository of Universal Love, One-Family Member)
that we are all born as!  AND IT CHANGED JESUS. 

AND IT CHANGED THE WORLD, A LITTLE.

AND IF WE'D SEE, AND UNDERSTAND THE REAL MIRACLE
IT WOULD SAVE THE WORLD. AND NOTHING ELSE WILL.
EVER.

THERE ARE A FEW MOMENTS LEFT FOR US TO DO SO.

It will take a Miracle to Save us. 

Universal Love is the Miracle.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

It is awesome wth Family and Friends this morning

5:48am I saw my late 20ish son about 3 blocks from our office as I was
heading to the park.  It was on the corner of one of the streets where
he and others sell my daughters for sex.  He wouldn't meet my eye.
But when I had passed him, I looked back, caught his eye, and said
"Merry Christmas."  He seemed a bit stunned.

5:52am it was another 3 of my sons, just a little younger, a block over.  My guess is
they too had just finished selling or wiping themselves with my daughters. 
They took no notice of me, an old, weird white guy, till I shot them a
loud and cheerful, "Morning!"  They fell silent.  They seemed confused.  On this
still, quiet morning I heard nothing from their group for the several
more minutes we remained within earshot of each other.  The seemed to
be thinking about something.

5:59am as I was just a block from the White House, my brother, my age,
white, was by the McPherson Metro for the warm air.  Looked like he'd been out all night
drinking, in the snow.  Not enough money I'd say to have been in bars. 
Scruffy.  No response to me or my "Merry Christmas?"

6:02am Connie happily received my "Merry Christmas!"  I asked her to stay
by the vigil for a moment, and crossed the street to my 2 sons and a brother
in the Secret Service.  Two I didn't recognize, and one I saw upon getting
close was my brother Kevin.  Oh my goodness, does he ADORE his two
young children.  It was just daybreak, and here he was on Duty, as they
were waking up looking for Santa.  All 3 were surprised and happy with
my "Merry Christmas" handshake.

6:20am or so my sister, the one with the coke bottle glasses and missing
front tooth walked by.  Big warm smile - "Looks like another foot of
snow mid day, you be careful" she wished me.  I don't know where in
DC she sleeps, on the streets.  "Merry Christmas" I said.  "Merry Christmas"
she said.

6:30am this enormously talented, intelligent, handsome, single brother came down from
the office, furious at me for not reducing myself to being his alarm clock -
blaming me for his failure in his opportunity to be here at 6am when
Connie and I change shifts so Connie wouldn't have to walk the 10
blocks in the ice, with her bad foot.

It is awesome with Family and Friends this morning.

Love you.

Start

Please friends, let me tell you the gift brother L gave me today.

Yes, there is the magnificent Christmas display of greens, berries,

red weeping willow (?) that Leon gave me, and I'm sharing with
our sister Connie; and that she is thrilled with.

But not that.

You know how much I Love Barack, don't you? My Love for him is
right up there with my Love for Jesus, because he is
such a Hope for us all. I would gladly give my life to protect his
Work. I spend every waking second attempting to
work at his side on our shared quest to Save Humanity from so
much needless Suffering. We all should. We all must.

I've only known, personally, one other Leader that was of
his caliber of transformative leadership. Who? Start Loving.
I wish I had known millions of such Leaders, and yearn to spark
millions. I LIVE to spark millions!

But having totally wasted my youth, totally not applying myself
I did not reach the caliber and breadth of global expertise that
let me ply my Leadership abilities as Barack is so brilliantly on the
global scale. My point? Oh my goodness, do I "get" Barack.
He IS the greatest Leader in the history of the world, and I Love
him, and I want him to have every ounce of support I can give
him in his Sacred work for our Family.

My friend, my Brother L gave me a gift today -

"If you write President Obama a letter I am quite sure I can get it
hand delivered to him."

Please, imagine my Joy at this moment.

I sooooo want Barack to know that he has my full support, were
it to cost me my life.

I sooooo want Barack to understand CONSCIOUSLY what may be
his UNCONSCIOUS, and therefore fragile CORE COMPETENCE -

HE REFUSES TO BE ANYTHING BUT A "BROTHER" TO HIS
6.8 BILLION SIBLINGS, CHILDREN AND FOLKS.

Pray for me.

Your Loving brother,

My beloved friends -

Late December has become an extraordinary season for me these last 5-10 years.

I'm free now of all the distractions.

I'm free now of the perversions in which I'd been steeped, addicted to for so many
decades - that this is a season of "stuff," rituals, parties, songs, family (and therefore "NOT-family,")
dogma, ceremonies, symbolism, physical miracles, "magic," sex, banquets, treats ....

No. 

Finally, this is the season when I come the closest to our beloved
brother Christ (Spirit of, Being of Universal Love) Jesus.  Our Father willing, I'll spend many hours
this next week  or so reading and pondering deeply the words of Our Brother, over, and
over, and over - basking in the Radiance, Wisdom, Truth of his Universal Love for us, you, me, all
of our Sisters and Brothers, born and who in the future are born. Basking in the Truth, Love, Life,
Peace and Joy of Him.

I'll be with Our Brother Jesus who Loves us all more than anyone ever has, but as
we all can learn to do, as we MUST QUICKLY re-learn to do - which is what Jesus died to give us;
which is the ENTIRETY of what He died to give us - HEAVEN IN THIS LIFE, INDIVIDUALLY,
and if enough of us get it right soon enough - HEAVEN COLLECTIVELY, Saving Civilization - Literally.
Nothing less. Nothing more.  Nothing else.  Simply Heaven on Earth is what Jesus was Dying to give us.
I Start am the "son" of Edward.  SO IS MY BROTHER EDGAR.  "Son" is NOT an EXCLUSIVE term!
"Christ," along with terms like "Marine" are designations of Character and Competence; but
non-exclusive - begging to be earned, achieved by those dying to Serve.

"Love as I have Loved," he said.  [What, He gave us a direction that He knew we were not capable of?  Rubbish.]

"If you Love me, you will do greater works than these," He said.  [What, He was kidding?]

We are all to become, to return to being the Christs we were born as - Beings of Universal Love.
Christ Jesus died to make us Christ Start, Christ Leon, Christ Diane... BY WHATEVER NAME,
OR BY NO NAME AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Beings of Universal Love - as you can be, as some of
you are, as all of us can fully become.  Our Achievement? Our Glory?  Of course not.  Our DUTY.
Our Joy.  Universal Love's GLORY. Our global Family's only Hope.  Humanity's Only Hope.

"The Kingdom of God (Good - Universal Love) is within you.  BE like a Child [before lust, hate, division,
superiority, exploitation, greed, not-family...] and enter in."

Loving you all,

HAPPY JESUS' BIRTHDAY!

Start L was all but thrown ouit of the Catholic Store in DC today

There is a very large "Catholic" store in DC about 4 blocks from
the White House.  I wanted to get several cards to mark
Jesus birthday and went in this afternoon, and a gift for Connie. 
As I entered this shop, probably 10 customers were in the store. 
It was quiet, "pious," as you can imagine. 

An agitated late 20ish store clerk went bustling from his counter
at my left, in front of me, hurriedly to a man who also was walking
in, behind me at my right.  "YOU, YOU can't be in here!  Out!
OUT!"  I glanced at this man, roughly my age, bundled in one of
those emergency shelter blankets, scruffy, obviously a street
person.  "And you call this a 'Catholic Shop?'" I asked the clerk
firmly, but not unkindly or disrespectfully.  He responded not
inappropriately, and a bit contritely, "He vandalizes things when
he comes in the store."  "Well, I can understand that you can't
have that, but he should be treated with the respect due EVERY
human none the less."

"Are you OK," condescendingly, smarmily came the question from
an early 30ish, very handsome, oily black haired, Wall Street banker
suited guy I immediately judged to be the store manger / corporate
manger.  I stood looking somewhat blankly at his insincerity, that he
might see it as well; giving him the chance to reconsider his dirty
approach and profoundly Anti-Christlike attitudes and prejudices.
"Are you OK?" came the question again; and he weakly extended
his hand for a handshake.  As I took his totally tepid handshake
I said, "Yes, I am OK.  But I don't think you are really concerned
whether I am OK."  It was obvious that he immediately judged
that this guy in a US Flag hat and scarf, camouflage coat, plastic
bags and saddles on feet was yet another "bum" psycho trash
to be thrown out of his Catholic Shop. 

He slithered away.  For a moment I returned my eyes to the rack
of cards with Jesus on them, and then thought to glance at him
as he walked toward his office.  He was in full sneer at an associate
indicating sooooooooo unmistakable,  "Can you believe that
wierdo trash joke I just spoke to?" 

I had caught his eye again by glancing his way.
"Are you associated with what here calls itself a 'Catholic Shop?'" 
I asked across the store, respectfully.  "Yes," he replied.

Having given him this last chance to see his Evil, I went and bought
my cards at Barnes and Nobel. 

When at a long BN cahier's isle it was my turn, from about
4 registers down a mid 20's, very attractive clerk sang out
"May I help you sir!" looking squarely at me with a smile that may
eclipse fossil fuel as a risk for melting  the glaciers.  And every other
clerk was as nice and respectful, kind, genuine and WARM!!!

God save us from the Christians, and ESPECIALLY the God Damn
Pedophile Papists Perverts.

There is far less "room at the Inn" today than in Jesus day.

Your brother,

Start

ps:  As I left BN I thanked them for their kindness and gave them
a 20 second version of the Catholic Store story loud enough
for the 20 folks around the hear.  Two days before Christmas.
