“I got up and pretended to study the pictures on the walls like I was a lover of religious art. When I got to the Merciful Mother right above Sinita’s head, I reached in my pocket and pulled out the bottom I’d found on the train. It was sparkly like a diamond and had a little hole in back so you could thread a ribbon through it and wear it like a romantic lady’s choker necklace. It wasn’t something I’d do, but I could see the button would make a good trade with someone inclined in that direction.

Here is the story. I'll try to keep it short. We returned to the US from Scotland in 2011 and take care of my dad for a year. Into 2012 we began to fast and pray about what God would have for us next. In a dream he spoke to me that Scotland when was the first of many nations he was going to send me to. Then in July 2012 we received prophetic ministry and an African

Bonnie Green, Chief Estimator, agreed that in a normal year only slight delays might develop due to a shortage of labor. However, she pointed out that for such a large project, the company would have to use unionized employees and that the construction industry labor agreements with New York City were to expire on October 30, 2004. Past experience and current construction activity in the surrounding area indicated that any union tradesman would support a strike against the city. Since this is a public project, she estimates that there is a 50% chance that they would strike this project to gain the attention of the national media.

Fast forward, the Lord guided me through the U.S. Marine Corps, Desert Storm and four tours of U.S. Embassy duty, it was not easy as in those days you had to fight daily as a Marine. It was just par for the course, so to speak, this I believed harden my spirit along with frequent drinking. I think the drinking became a way of coping with the tragic death of my mother among other things. While in the Marine and living in Africa I had a vision of a mountain and a gathering of people dressed in white. I later determine that the mountain and the people were in Ethiopia. The people all looked as though they were in a trance and were walking to and from the mountain. When I would walk up and asked them what they were doing, they would only say one word to me "Exodus" the Greek word meaning to depart just as the Israelites had departed Egypt. At the moment I did not truly understand what God was saying, but I now I realize that God was telling me to turn away from my worldly ways. See as a Marine I became very aggressive and would fight at the drop of a hat. I was a drinker and womanizer and the more of both I had, the better I thought I was doing. That said, the vision I had was the embarkation line of my departure from the Egypt of my flesh and the beginning of my journey and transformation; not to say I am perfect now because I am still a finite being, but I am not who I used to be.

The arguments I choose to assess for truth and validity will be three statements taken from the Application's list 12.2 (a -y) at the end of Ch. 12, “The Art of Thinking” publication. I will start with the statement (j) the premise that "power must be evil because it can corrupt people." Checking the argument for any hidden premises and ensuring it is stated fully and in a clear concise way is the first step. This argument seems to pass the first hurdle, however after checking for errors affecting truth, the argument has flaws. Beginning with, the part of the argument that says power corrupts people is not true

On a cold summer night the sun was shining brightly in the sky. The sounds of bears were given to my ears in the breeze as it came through the forest trees. Wolfs could be seen in the tree line hunting their pray. Feeling the rugged rocks that you tread on. Fresh air smells like pine scents with a glowing spray of a river. There was a spiritual being present that made my heart quicken and my body became still. HE came to show the way for HE is the truth, the way, and the life for through HIM we well shall see the face of GOD. This started my first step into what is a fantastic journey is exciting yet wondering what is gone to happen. Each step brings peace no matter what the challenge is because HE leads me. Some search to find a round their

At the age of 5 my mother, my father and I took a walk over the bridge in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. While never been able settle down as a child, my mother took it upon herself to carry me across so that I don’t fall down thirty feet to a watery death. As we enjoy the smell of the air and the wind blowing coolly against us, we decided to take a photo. Father went across from us with the camera and my mother and I stood on the other side, our backs facing the edge of the bridge and the river leading to the ocean. It wasn’t until I heard a scream and saw a flash that I realized I was falling for what felt like 10 seconds. After fifteen hours in a coma, I awoke to find my family happy as can be, even though I had no memory of any of them. It was from that point that I wondered how I would have been a different person had I retained all my previous feelings and thoughts.

The Constitution declares that “no Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States” and does not offer any ideas or suggestions for what to call the new chief executive that was created. Americans—especially anti-federalists who were in opposition to the Constitution—worried a great deal about freedom’s fate under a president who possessed the powers of a monarch and who would live in a kind of court whose language and manners would separate it from the rest of the community. But, as Bartoloni-Tuazon states in her prehistory of the controversy, “Americans were already quite used to status differentiations because titles distinguishing military rank, occupational status, and political office had long been “en- trenched in the

On February 12th, 2015 I left America for the holy land. After we got on the plane I felt excited, I had not been to Israel in many years. I was thinking wow I’m about to have a great experience and make some great friends. After the long flight we arrived and the first thing I felt was the warm Israel breeze on my face. After waiting for one of the other kids to find their luggage which got lost we rode to Jerusalem. The views I saw outside the window were truly magnificent, from wild animals to construction workers to plants of crazy color. After finally getting to the Youth hostel we enjoyed dinner rice and potatoes. Then we walked to the kotel and took a late night tour of the Jewish, Armenian, and Muslim quarter. When I walked up to the wall I started

We found curtains from a deluxe room on the ship, and we used those as a sail. We caught fish with some floss and a stick, using some extra pieces of food as bait. We managed to stay healthy for 2 days until we got caught in a whirlpool, it was very hard to get out of but after hours of fierce fighting and a miracle we managed to get out. After a day of smooth sailing we started to have hallucinations because of heat exhaustion, I got water for the Captain and I and we had been able to survive that day. I will never forget the day that we saw land, because that meant that there was still hope. There was no better feeling than that, it made me feel all warm inside, I don't really know how to explain it. I have to be honest, I didn't think I was going to make it. I had said my prayers and thanked the lord for the wonderful life I had, I accepted the fact that if it was my time, it was my time. Once we were swimming to the land I stopped and looked at the captain and said, “I just want to thank you for saving me, I don't know what I would have done without your guidance.” With a smirk he said,”kid I could not have done it without you.” Once we made it I was brought up p the

As they moved closer, Calvin noticed a someone speaking at a podium on a makeshift stage. From the distance, he noticed that many of the people in the crowd were middle-aged white men draped Confederate States of America paraphernalia. Upon noticing this, he signaled his family to go to the nearby pond without him as he’d catch up later. Janice took the kids to the pond while Calvin walked toward the crowd. When he arrived, about 30 yards from the podium, he recognized the man speaking. It was none other than Billy Cobb Guidry. In front of all these people, he spoke of white power, “niggers taking our country”, and “Mexicans going back where the hell they came from”. As the only black person anywhere in sight, Calvin left the scene filled

I met people from different religions: Muslim, Jewish, Christian, Catholic. All people were standing in line waiting for their journey to being in the big city, each one of them had their own style of dressing according to their culture, they all had their own language, it was amazing, I felt like I have just woke up from a dream that lasted 22 years. I felt that this is the time I will start to live the real life. Meeting people from all over the world in a very short time was a very encouraging situation that gave me a good impact to start my new

There was a thick layer of snow and ice it took us all day to get to our first outpost. we set up camp and stayed the night the unbearable weather. We heard strange noises through the night screams Dom said “they’re just bobcats,” It sounded too real. The sound screeched against my ears throughout the night as if people were slowly being killed, or as if a monster was killing it’s prey. I woke up the next morning and I saw Jesus was nowhere to be found, I called out to him twice no

Space is an infinite thing, always expanding and growing. I think we all are the same way, changing and weaving through the other stars. Sometimes we are pulled to one, and then we revolve around them, until we are gone or whisked away.
