August 28 Scripture Meditations Based on Jonah 3-4
Key Verse – Jonah 4:2 And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, … I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness…
MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR BEING GRACIOUS TO ME
Thank You for being gracious unto me, being good merciful
Very holy are You --- though I’m sinful
You let me repent from my evil ways so awful
While bringing my soul toward becoming prayerful.
Thank You for being gracious unto me, since You’re slow to anger
Very compassionate are You --- though I’m tempted in worldliness to linger
You let me acknowledge my spiritual hunger
While touching my heart with Your loving finger.
Thank You for being gracious unto me, showing Your great kindness
Very gentle are You --- though I’m bent by haughtiness
You let me realize my arrogance-destructiveness
While abasing my pride for genuine meekness.
Thank You for being gracious unto me, and ready with Your presence
Very approachable are You --- though I’m sulking in self-pity’s license
You let me see my hypocrisy’s bad essence
While opening my vision toward Your glorious magnificence.
Thank You for being gracious unto me, as well as righteously mighty
Very powerful are You --- though I’m weakened by iniquity
You let me consider my ways against backsliding’s infirmity
While strengthening my faith upon Your truth-authority.
Thank You for being gracious unto me, with Your exceeding compassion
Very forgiving are You --- though I’m unfaithful to Your great commission
You let me recognize my previous hell-bound condition
While transforming my character through Your perfecting conversion.
Thank You for being gracious unto me, indeed always available
Very helpful are You --- though I’m incompetent and unable
You let me ponder on my mistakes, making me humble
While leading my steps to Your victory, by Your might that’s possible.

Voltaire lived in the early 1700’s…he was born in Paris, France….
His words still have meaning today…if we’d give them half a chance.
If we had the opportunity…to talk to the famous Voltaire
I imagine the first word out of his mouth…would be a word of warning…
Beware
Beware of your world leaders he might say…
they are not all compassionate and wise…
‘If you want to know who controls you…
look to those you’re not allowed to criticize’.
Beware of those who say how wise they are…
for there is usually insecurity behind it…
‘Cherish those who seek the truth,’ he’d say,
‘but beware of those who find it.’
Beware of all the nonsense being spoken…
all the madness being tweeted.
‘Stupidity can appear as wisdom,’ he’d warn,
‘the more often it’s repeated’.
He might say beware of those who are filled with arrogance
with self-worship and pomposity
For ‘Those who can make you believe absurdities
can make you commit atrocities’.
If he saw how easy it is for us to kill each other’s spouses,
their daughters and their sons…
‘Beware of fools with power,’ he’d instruct,
‘beware of fools with guns’.
If he looked at the way we treat those in need, he’d say
Beware! We need to change our point of view…
‘For everyone is guilty
of all the good they do not do.’
Yes, I wonder if Voltaire was still here…
if he was around today
would we conveniently dismiss his words…
or listen to what he had to say?

Me, I never learn from teachers
Could not speak till middle school
So I learned intuition from those who don't hear
Can't vocalize at speed of thought
Graduated five credits short by my words and thought
After being misunderstood, stereotyped and judged
by a equal man who looks down on those who don't
Fit in to the mold of him and discredited message
By way of being biast to propaganda and media
thoughts.
I don't wish to offend the art
But I have held nothing but words
I was to humble to speak
I tried to hide and searched for death
But my words are not mine there sent
And until I face fate I am unable to enter the gate
I wish not credit, for this is essence above a unique
soul
I can't speak these parables
To be scrutinized by those who follow only gold
From alpha to the end
There has been the essential divinity
In all so life could grow, love laugh, sin
Spoken word is to be cherished and honored
Only if bold, not self serving, and reasonable
To all human kind.
So what makes you upstanding
Arrogance, or hand picked syllabus
Which is of no relevance in the truth you are denying

The Horse
Watch his splendor
as he strides elegantly across the prairie.
His beautiful mane blows like a leaf
on a windy November day.
Each step. One after the other, gracefully taken,
as not to lose the rhythm.
The ground beneath him, uneven, uneasy for his
stepping, is taken with great arrogance.
He stops for only a moment,
to nibble on a blade of grass.
He looks around, left to right and behind,
to be sure that no one is watching
his unusual dance on the prairie.
He dances with the beating of time, never ending,
and only he can hear it.
It will never stop, as the hands of time never do.
His tail with its one fleck of black upon it
sways like a child on a swing.
Going faster and swinging higher,
to show the pleasure of the dance.
It sways with the beat of each hoof
trouncing the ground.
Will he stop? Possibly
However, does it matter?
He is free from the world of anger, pain, fear
and reprimand.
Let him go now, he is free like the wind.
No rider shall violate the beauty of his body,
no slashes of anger shall be felt
on his innocent flesh,
and no blood shall be shed to hit the ground,
to make a pool of color on the ground.
Let him run.
He is there no more
to take the beatings of the whip.
Let him go now, he is free like the wind

Key Verse – Jeremiah 49:5 Behold, I will bring a fear upon thee, saith the Lord GOD of hosts, from all those that be about thee; and ye shall be driven out every man right forth; and none shall gather up him that wandereth.
HEART THAT LEARNS FROM GOD WITH REVERENTIAL FEAR
Our heart learns from God with reverential fear against haughty sufficiency
That corrects us by His satisfaction-persistency
So that we can stay in His compassionate proficiency
And be content in enjoying His mercy.
Our heart learns from God with reverential fear against vain arrogance
That rebukes us by His meekness-deliverance
So that we can abide in His nourishing sustenance
And be peaceful in claiming His assistance.
Our heart learns from God with reverential fear against shameful selfishness
That humbles us by His sacrifice-completeness
So that we can acknowledge His omnipotent greatness
And be confident in trusting His kindness.
Our heart learns from God with reverential fear against perilous idolatry
That disciplines us by His standards in the ministry
So that we can march along truth-infantry
And be courageous in doing His will against sin-entry.
Our heart learns from God with reverential fear against hypocritical reaction
That cleanses us by His purging sanctification
So that we can strive for His holiness-anchored function
And be teachable in gaining from His instruction.
Our heart learns from God with reverential fear against worldly interest
That reproves us by His divine test
So that we can invest in His eternity’s fullest
And be fruitful in working for His honour, always the best.
Our heart learns from God with reverential fear against disobedient tenacity
That molds us by His loving authority
So that we can yield to His guiding sovereignty
And be blessed in praising His Deity.

The Bear to the East of Uncle Sam, what is Uncle Sam doing in the territory of the Bear? Uncle Sam behavior is that of a moron.
Uncle Sam is like a mad child ,trying to kill himself out of his own madness. Uncle sam is ruthless and power-hungry. He lacks empathy, and he always blames others for his mistakes. He takes credit for the work and ideas of others, and he puts down and belittle those who don't share with him his views or support them.
Everywhere Uncle sam goes, he creates chaos and miseries, and his madness now is making him to start poking the bear in the eye.
Uncle Sam, please stay away from the Bear the apex predator, you cannot win any fight with the bear. You will be"beaten out of existence," and don't push the Bear too far, you have been beaten down by your own pride and arrogance, every odds are against you so much so that it is suffocating your pride. Leave the Bear alone and mind your own business.
Uncle Sam, you have created allies, but just morons in your presence, "When a blind man leads a blind man, they both end up in the ditch.”
Only morons ask for a fight with the bear, Uncle Sam, together with your allies, you'll be badly humiliated should you continue poking the bear..!!
Uncle Sam, stop provoking the bear. Stay away!
Your end lies in your greed, and your collective fate has been sealed.

Nature, wondrous from the very beginning
perfectly created* by God for mankind
precious gift to tend with grace He grants.
Nature, beauteous paradise is now badly ravaged...
oppressed by inhabitants' abuse
hurting it with combined folly and negligence.
Nature, with soaring technology
toward so-called progress is continually afflicted
agonizing in advancement-inflicted pain.
Nature, sighing in disgust at arrogance
of development --- keeps on warning sternly
tolerating not selfishness and greed of human nature.
Nature, along pestilence-triggered dearth
gives to us admonition, and we must take heed
before we despair, regretting ... when it is too late.
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
