Lord Ruthven

A lord would grant land to another noble in exchange for protection and military services. This grant was called a fief. Those who received fiefs were called vassals. Within the fief, the vassal was the highest authority. Fiefs could be various seizes. Some were single estates just big enough for a knight and his family. Others were large, as big as an entire country or province. The vassals promised the lord military services. Military service was

European feudalism was based on contract and Japanese feudalism was based on personal relationship with the lord and vassal. This helps prove that the differences between European and Japanese feudalism made limited government more likely to develop in the West because a contract limits what the lords and vassals could do. William, the king of English, said, “I command you [the vassal] to summon all those who are under your charge......and bring ready with you those five knights that you owe me[

one day, I found another note on my nightstand saying she was sorry she had to leave, because she just couldn’t get past her feelings. She told me to keep the puppy. I was devastated once again. Each time it happened, I prayed and cried out to the Lord and could just barely deal with the pain. This time, a few hours after she left, she called me from Redding, crying and saying she was very confused. It was raining so hard she couldn’t even see the road to drive and felt it was God sending

soldiers of the emperor protected the poor people. Then when the empire fell, there were no laws protecting them, so they turned to the lords to keep the peace and to act on their behalf. This willingness of the poor people to be ruled by the lords led to the beginning of Feudalism. Some peasants, poor people, were free, but most became serfs, slaves, to the lord. Serfs generally lived in communities that were ruled by the local nobles. They could not marry or even leave the manor without the lord’s

worries of today. The rest stop, we park in is worry, and busyness is our companion. Fear drives our motivation to stay connected in the world , it pushes us through our days, propelling us farther away from the destiny in which the Lord is calling us to. The Lord has been dealing with me about my former self. That nasty black hole which resided in me fed off of constant busyness, And I believed, if I stayed busy, and connected to the world no one would forget about me. By pushing harder in

Did you know? Expectations affect your experiences in life. Meaning: Your outlook going into a situation will affect your outcome. Example: A child raised in a poor home was always told no when she asks for anything. She 'd ask for new shoes or to go on a trip, but they were too poor. Growing up, she began to dislike the word no and found it nearly impossible to ask anyone for anything. She feared to be told no even when she needed things badly. So she missed out on opportunities to better herself

It wasn’t until I was a newly hired Youth Minister at just 21, employed full-time at a church in Indiana that I realized, I had no idea what I had gotten myself into. I went to Bible College, I had the training, but yet, something was missing. After a few months of frustration, I realized, the problem was, I literally had no idea what I had gotten myself into. So I began to wrestle with the question, ”What is ministry?” I had an assumption, but rarely are those well informed, or, at least in

reliance. I have truly grown closer to my role model in my life. Matt Harp, my role model, is a man of truth, integrity, love, selflessness, and compassion. Many different times he surprised me with how he acted, spoke and thought. I clearly saw the Lord lead his life, and his actions revealed as much. I wanted to follow his example. He led me through junior high, what was definitely the toughest part of my life. Looking back, I can only imagine what would have happened in my life if I had not grown

positively drove him to settle on choices as lord that were poor, and in actuality a maladroit ruler. Notwithstanding this imperfection in character, Richard could be seen as a clever, wise individual, yet illsuited for his acquired occupation. Promptly the peruser is demonstrated the love of function and show that Richard holds. He hears the allegations conveyed to him by his cousin Bolingbroke and Mowbray. Mowbray dreading unprejudiced nature on the lords part is consoled by Richard: "fair-minded

Now when the fourteenth night had come, as we were driven up and down in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors sensed that they were drawing near some land…When it was day, they did not recognize the land; but they observed a bay with a beach, onto which they planned to run the ship if possible. But striking a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground.” (Acts 27: 27-44 This is Luke’s account of the shipwreck that Paul experienced in the Adriatic Sea, near the Island of Malta as
