notes/quotes:

don’t know how good a green lantern i would be.. will power ness

when i start thinking about the themes in scripture i get so excited.. each theme tells a good story about nature of god.. love thru theme of light.. and 2 other themes 1\ children/sonship 2\ voice/word.. they tell a good story..

age old question philosophers of old thought to answer.. plato, aristotle, peppermint patty and hattoway.. questions like.. what is love..

if love is light.. what is opp of that.. what is the darkness

rebecca pippert: anger isn’t opp of love.. hate is .. and final form of hate is indiff.. dark side of love is hate.. that hate culminates in indifference.. which is opp of will power.. ability to do something

lewis anger law – maté addiction law

you just described john last 5 yrs (per what he’s been telling me.. and nana).. wow

levi poet.. father’s attitude toward me has never been apathetic/indiff.. hands reached to me even when i was his enemy w/o excuse..

cross and cradle were never plan b.. always the plan..

children of god are ones who listen to his voice and obey him.. of course.. god breathed into them.. thru his voice..

not yet scrambled ness.. already on each heart ness

so.. why can’t we just listen.. we often choose death.. why would anybody choose death

proverbs 8 on wisdom.. the lord had me at the beginning.. having my delight.. description of wisdom

how do you listen to the voice.. when they (light and dark) sound the same.. seems both make sense..

to me.. need 1st/most: means to undo our hierarchical listening to self/others/nature as global detox/re\set.. so we can org around legit needs

jiminy cricket.. trouble w world today.. won’t listen to right voice..

what can we do so know what right voice.. does it have to shout louder..? that wouldn’t do it.. that would only terrify the children.. or they’d run to one shouting louder.. how can voice become so clear/dear to children so they feel they have to listen to it

khan filling the gaps law et al

only one way.. word became flesh and made his dwelling among us

who could have dreamed.. that we would hold god in our hands.. revelaing his glorious plan to save the world.. the cradle has never been plan b

what is love.. a baby boy.. lying in manger.. word become flesh.. john 1:9.. true light coming into world..

how does light come.. john 1:10-13 – light makes a way for us to be children..

again.. not yet scrambled ness

so many things in world still grey.. but one thing no longer grey.. god’s word.. thru incarnate word of god.. we know heart of god.. beautiful

he calls you to come home.. his love beyond highest star and reaches to lowest hell.. his heart is always for us no matter the cost

implications.. one main thing.. we are called to let our words become flesh..

they will know.. by our love

3 ways for words to become flesh: forgive, serve, witness

1\ forgive – regardless of what we have done he runs to us.. ‘you don’t understand relationships i have to forgive’.. i would have to say.. so were you/i.. father ran to son while he was a long way off..

pearson unconditional law.. unoffendable ness et al.. eisenstein i know you law et al

2\ serve – others.. actively seeking their good.. ‘love has a million disguises.. but winning isn’t one of them

us & them ness

3\ witness – god loves people everywhere..

what allows all this? will power? our willing ness? in a sense yes.. we have to decide/choose (listen).. lord of rings.. powerless w/o power source.. our source of love: we love because he first loved us..

could we w/in the oceans fill or the skies of parchment made.. to write the love of god above would drain the ocean dry.. from sky to sky.. so powerful.. it draws the apathy out of us.. takes us.. who are ugly and makes us shine/beautiful to a world that desperately needs it
