Premium Member Discerning the Times: A Sign of the Times
Jesus said, “You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times.” (Matthew 16:3) There are passages in scripture that roar louder with each passing era, and Romans 1:28 is one such thunderclap.

It's the lack of grattitude, It's the wanton desire. It's the hopeless attitude, It's the planet on fire. It's the cost of living, It's the war in Ukraine. It's the unforgiving, It's the realm of mundane. It's the rise of insanity, It's the falling of tears. It's the search for humanity, It's the preying on fears. It's the blatant hypocrisy, It's the bevy of crimes. It's the death of...

One of the nicest Christmas traditions I know Involves a guy, a girl, and some mistletoe. Or perhaps I should say that's the traditional way. But in this age of sexual diversity, Guys don't always kiss a biological miss, And girls often prefer not a him, but a her.

Well, the gray lady’s losing her ‘shine’. It seems Wordle had crossed party lines. The puzzle to greet us contained the word ‘fetus’, They aborted the word; it’s all fine. ---------- The New York Times removed the word 'fetus' from their Wordle database so they could remain 'distinct from the news'. https://www.cnn.com/2022/05/09/media/wordle-roe-v-wade-intl-scli/index.html...

There is war and rumors of wars...are they MAD? Matthew 24:6-13 NIV 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and...

The Final Show
I can’t see beyond the iridescent glow of lights— forming this unworldly silhouette around his body. Yet, I can see him: the shapes of his every breath, steadily outpaced by his heart, which could only hope to match mine— moving at unsurpassed speeds. I see his neck; the steady fluctuations as beautifully gentle words dance their way past his...

Two young nudists went to lie down and bask Along came a cop who took them to task Thought they broken the law For basking in the raw Then the cop said" you're not wearing face masks"... The nudists thought it was some kind of jest Both cursed the cop and started to protest Reinforcements were called The nudists were appalled When they were...

HASHTAGS AND SELFIES This era of the ego,hashtags and selfies..and me me me... to the fore,impatience always knocking on my door.

Where Respect..Respect is craven most..in this world of me.. My thoughts are running wild..Pity pity me..I've never grown up.. I'm immature... still just a child. Copyright © Brian...
