Metanoeite CXLXVII

"Stay here while I go over there to pray."

Jesus, I need to get away before I come back.

"I did."

"Angels came and cared for Jesus' needs."

Metanoeite CXLXVI

"Look up!"

I'm so weary and feeling pulled down by naysayers, navel-gazers, party-poopers, and damning demi-gods who see what's wrong with everybody but themselves.

"Shifting sight saves."

"You'll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things
true,
noble,
reputable,
authentic,
compelling,
gracious -
the best, not the worst;
the beautiful, not the ugly;
things to praise, not things to curse."

Metanoeite CXLXV

"I do not change...I make everything new."

You are always providing new ways to experience and express You.

"Because you've still got changes to make to conform to Me."

"You must be born again and from above."

Metanoeite CXLXIV

"You have heard...but I say..."

I met with a young man who wept because of "people bein' ugly" to each other; so I quoted some of Your friends: "It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness."

"My people brighten the path leading to Me."

"Let your light shine so they may see..."

Metanoeite CXLXIII

"Absolute futility! Everything is futile!"

I came back, went to my study nearly five hours before a wedding because I had so much work and catching up to do, turned everything on, and nothing worked.

"I do."

"God alone is my salvation."
