For A moment I after I view some news around the World, meaning The Life of Humanity a very not dwelling assessment. And Then I look out the window, notice a young Lady, trying to visit some one next door, And thought about my wife, and thought about how women who think they are the gift to mankind, not realizing one day they will get old and that beauty will go away on the outside and I thought about the men as well and for just a moment I thought the young ones are seeking "Life". The young attractive women, has in mind; "the Cinderella Syndrome" or " a Barbie Mentality".
And The man there, is not really exciting about this life. Even if he is a "Millionaire" He is not excited about "The Tea Cups", or having any fancy notions about being "King David" or "King Solomon" for a "nice Pickup will do and maybe a "LABRADOR" and a "PlayStation" or XBOX will do.
I Just looked at the people and those out of the window. The sites of their achievements and goals disgruntled me. I could see their goals. I been there. And know a many who also had those Targets. Even those who reached those targets. even those who loved and found love, but was it Love even after 20-30 years the lovers split up. "LOVE NEVER FAILS" "Love does not keep track of wrong". You see I know now, after many years. The LOVE of GOD is not in a host of things in a "book". Love come and grows in suffering and great pain and forgives many wrongs and denying oneself of the pleasures of this Life and watered with many tears.
So after feeling this "despondency" coming over me. I said I got to get out of this state of mind. So I sat down and said "LORD" and something said turn to "1 JOHN" and {"TOLLE "Lege" "TOLLE" "Lege"} he heard children in the play yard singing "Pick up and Read, Pick up and Read" and "Augustine" look down and on the ground, there laying on the ground "The BOOK to The Christians in Rome".
So I turn to 1 John and found these words; JOHN telling what he and the disciplines had seen with their own eyes and touch with their own hands. And the words leap from The pages The page had "LIFE" the words came "ALIVE"
1 John 1: 1-4 KJV
The Word of Life
(Luke 24:36-43; John 20:19-23)
"1That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of The Word Of Life; 2(For The Life Was Manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that ETERNAL LIFE, which was with THE FATHER, and was manifested unto us 3That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with THE FATHER, and with HIS SON JESUS CHRIST. 4And these things write we unto you, that Your Joy May Be Full."

The mind of a person plans his way, But the LORD directs his steps.
NASB 1977
“Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were younger, you used to gird yourself, and walk wherever you wished; but when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will gird you, and bring you where you do not wish to go.”
