"With great Power comes great Responsibility"
What is power? What is a responsibility?
I ask these questions daily.
Is power a synonym? For Rich or Witch?
Or is a whole nother thing which we cant just seem to itch?
If people with powers have responsibilities why don't they serve them?
when they come across people of the less they just kick and ignore them.
"- great responsibilty " is true I must say that
But how come the people with POWER have to have that?
Trusted people, who are loyal and kind. but because they have a different skin just makes then "one of you're kind!"
The kind should have the power not the rich or poor.
its the LAND OF THE FREE so why can't we do more!
The people with power abuse it greatly, so is that why everywhere is a danger lately?
Im young and responsible but I have no power.
But the old man with money has a pool, workers, and loads of POWER!
If great power gives you great responsibilities,
how come the people with power cause nothing but great hostilities
"With great power comes great responsibilty" was what a very wise man once said.
Maybe the rich need to get that in there f----ing head.
Iran,
your glory
is now known
by the world.
You stood
against two
nuclear powers,
United States
and Israel.
For years,
America bullied you.
But in silence,
you prepared yourself
for danger.
And when
the war came,
you fought back
like a tiger.
What your enemies
never understood
was this—
The spirit
of the Persian people
was forged
through thousands
of years
of history.
Empires came.
Empires fell.
But Persia
endured.
Today, Iran,
many see you
as a hero.
You showed
the weak nations
that determination
can challenge
great power.
You possessed
terrible power
beneath the ground,
yet wisdom
stopped your hand.
They called you
a terrorist state.
But history
will remember
who brought war
to your door first.
And now
the world watches
as history changes.
For Iran
stood alone
against powerful nations
and forced
the world
to think again
about power,
resistance,
and destiny.
For every empire
that worships power
eventually learns
that pride alone
cannot protect
the soul
of a nation.
Love you so much, you make me feel happy and fill my moments with exhilaration.
Baby you are so sweet, you sing like a bird making the days filled with sweet sound. Your sweet melody, brings love and light to my moments in time.
Sparkling like a star, you make me shine brighter and brighter like a diamond.
Love you so much, my heart beats with so many love thoughts, it makes me feel your strong arms around me making me feel happy all day long.
Love is forever in our mind, it grows, it builds, it makes us feel so amazing we glow.
Love and relationships have great power, they can lift us to places we can only dream of.
Love you baby, to the moon and the stars above.
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
Vagaries, slick word snakes off the tongue.
Hard lines are drawn when we desire fluid.
Smears won’t fix a disrespect this horrid.
It must be washed clean, now be strong.
There is great power in being a disruptor,
that charisma is perceived as so dynamic.
Transitional is what you feel with the shtick,
the source ultimately becomes a generator.
Calculated a metaphoric mutation spreads,
immediately eliminating anything invasive.
Don’t work against it, for it is aggressive.
The kill shot lurks under silken threads.
Oscillation sharpens with a slight crackle,
seismic waves split open and then devour.
Minute by minute or maybe it’s hour to hour,
nothing captures quite like shadow-tackle.
the
lie
has
great power
in
deceiving mankind
thus
when
we
wear
the
cloaking ring
and
dorn
the
red cape
the
lie
becomes
the
truth
in
this world
and
impossible
to escape
Two millenia past, and more.' A night gathering of the
Sanhedrin, which is i beleive of un-law? So not by day under
Gods sun, as Gid advised Moses, justice should be seen to
Be done, Yeshua knew that wrong would be done He also
Knew His accusers ' everyone' tortured and crucified unto
Death, just after forgiving His tormentors, he gave His last
Breath' He was taken down 'His body intact' no bones
Were broken. and such is the fact.' They took His body to
Josephs tomb, wrapped Him and left, they were full of
Gloom.' Yet Jesus In spirit went to hell, in the lowest depths
Did He show and tell ' many beleived and hastened to His side ' He ascended with them to our Father, the Word holds
No lies.' And then great power filled that room all of a sudden a light Intense, etched His form into those sheets.'
There is blood that has been traced and Its living still.' So We hear now my people a great light shone, enough power To shake the earth through the bedrock shows, and so now on to this one' His photo was taken, how typical said the athiest yet His Father
Could have had no camera..' As they were not invented
I hope my point is well taken.?
Knowing there is great power in our words…
knowing the peace and joy they can bring
knowing the havoc they can wreak….
may we always be blessed to take a moment…
and think before we speak.
In my wooden form, stories I unfold
A simple pencil with tales yet untold
Gripped by hands i sketch dreams and plans
A tool for artists, scholars, and fans
With every stroke, ideas take flight,
From blank pages to visions bright
I wear down slowly but I never cease
Creating worlds piece by piece
Though small and humble I hold great power
In every line I mark each hour
December 8 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on Ephesians 1-3
Key Verse – Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.
PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR HIS SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS
Praise be to God for His spiritual blessings with:
Grand plan of His work
Good pleasure in His will
Great power along His way
Glorious praises during worship
Gracious provisions in His worth
Guiding prudence midst His wisdom
Governing providence by His watchfulness
Ephesians 2:10 Praise be to the Lord
for perfecting us as His workmanship:
Created for Christ-like character
Converted by His compassionate care
Cleansed toward consecration’s commitment
Charged for His calling so clearly communicated
Challenged to be courageous by His counsel and comfort
Ephesians 3:1 Praise be to the Saviour for
allowing us to be His prisoners:
Bound by His salvation
Burdened by His service
Brought to His sanctuary
Blessed with His satisfaction
Braced upon His steadfastness
Bestowed along His sustenance. Amen!

As humans we have great power
that many don't use for good
we have the power to help and encourage
or to break someone's spirit
While walking through a dark situation,
a smile and quick hello help me
to put one foot in front of the other
and keep trying to move forward
Or a series of mean and angry words
can bring the tears close to the surface,
and make me feel worse than
I did before the tirade
Being kind is a basic command that is
the basis of my life and it is very
frustrating when that kindness is thrown
back at me with venom
The same body organ produces kind words
that produces angry and hurtful words
the difference is using it for good or evil,
which is a fight that is fought on many realms
“To be, or not to be?” asks Hamlet's soul,
a mind transfixed between the depths below
and life's thin, airy hold: this desperate role,
I still play; although, from despair I know
that meaning consists neither in wealth, pleasure,
nor youth, might, thought: not even in great power!
But in the feet of this poem's solemn measure,
the answer is found: 'tis life, by whose Flower
the gift of meaning is through your love's labor,
the purpose for which you were made and reborn.
In this fact, take heart and faint not nor waver;
but seize at last your life's prize unforlorn!
Though Hamlet ponders still the sleep of death,
I breathe the Flower's scent with life's every breath.
In an early Sunday morning muse,
there I was, in a huge forest of trees.
It had the feel of being in a world filled
with people, ever increasing year after year.
Notwithstanding, there were two trees
that stood out more than all the rest.
I was then reminded of two contrasting
trees I have read about in the Bible.
The Psalmist David spoke of 'the wicked'
being in great power, SPREADING themselves
like a Green Bay Tree. Another Psalmist said
that 'the righteous' shall FLOURISH
like the Palm Tree.
And then I prayed to the Lord Almighty.
O God, may the wicked cease from spreading.
And Lord, let me be among the righteous
who flourish like the Palm Tree.
100424PS
(Green Bay Tree)Ps. 37:35; (Palm Tree)Ps. 92:12
If fate opposed is useless, what great need
is there to challenge dark despair's great power
when spirit dies, and soul, mind, body bleed,
as hope wilts like a melancholic flower?
When lungs give way, and breath begins to drown,
should life and existence now become jointless,
so glory and fame (marks of the renown
that laud their pride) be futile, vain, and pointless?
But sculpting songs transforms life's dreadful deluge,
as odes calm a tempestuous, mental clime,
like a moored buoy that delivers refuge
through this apocalyptic end of time.
So, brooding minds therefore must all beware,
lest deep truths lead to bottomless despair!
Many Angels In My Heart Are Held
Many angels in my heart are held ---
One to keep you & I safe by night & day;
Another to hold us protected & an array;
Of others that guard all those I love.
They settle like a gentle dove
Upon our hearts or on our brow
If we will but allow
them the space to do their work.
Sanity or insanity, which do I choose,
In life or death I cannot loose;
Pain is a bumpy road and ride
It would be nice to know you’re on my side.
The limits of this life are overwhelming at times,
But I can still hear clearly a bell in heaven chimes,
Telling me the great power of love
Which reaches across all abysses from above---
One mighty, eternal law of love
Sent to us as a gift from above,
As serene & natural as life and death
We will know it fully when we draw our last breath.
As big as my heart, as wide as the heaven above,
After all is gone what will remain is love;
Touching each of us & in our hearts it does meld
For the many angels in my heart are held.
Lord please, hearest now my prayer,
and set thine angelic wings around me,
so that I may no longer be dismayed,
that I may no longer be afraid.
But instead Lord, set my Spirit free,
that I shall rise with gracious glee,
transformed by his great goodness,
and made whole by his great power.
