Gideon was told God wanted him to do what looked like a suicidal task, and he used the fleece for God to supernaturally prove it really was from Him. Smart! Once Gideon got the answer that is was from God, he obeyed. And won! (300 guys with torches caused a big, nasty, occupying army to run like rabbits)

Because we are spiritually alive in Christ, everything we do is spiritual. If we want to do something, and it doesn't contradict Scripture, it's probably fine. Go do it, and rejoice in God. If you don't have the ability to do it, ask God for the ability. If He doesn't give it, then stay where you are, and be content.

People died to give you the Bible in your language.
Read it. Eat it. Dwell in it. Rightly divide it. Live it.
Laugh, dance, praise your God, and go read some more. May God bless you.

Awesome!

vilages of tales (Erice)

Enchanting, magical, and mystical door that leads to a place
perhaps not on this lifetime, but long ago. It reminds me of one of my favorite movies called: Brigadoon.

Strange mating rituals: Alberta tree swallows

This is hilarious with these two birds mating. All sorts of scenarios play in my mind as I watch them. I added my notes to their mouths which are their beaks. The one inflight asks, "What did you say?" The other bird replies with a cry, "Marry me, I love you!"

Trail of Light

Kaikala is the sea and the sun in Hawaiian. The sea will always reflect the light of the sun. The sun will shine on those who stand before it shines on those who kneel under them.

My Beloved Mother Mona, This Mother's Day is in Remembrance of your Love and Light. Your Spirit and Love lives on through your Children...

It is Mother's Day, May 9, 2010 at 2:35 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time. To my Mother, Mona: I thank you for your selfless dedication to your husband and your children. I thank you for the beautiful individual you are. I thank you mother for putting your family first in all things. You have all your life, (even in your marriage, through neglect and abuse (both emotional and sexual), protected your children as much as you could. You grew up never being proud of your Hawaiian Heritage because your skin colour was too fair. You suffered at age 3 when your father tragically died,then you suffered at the hands of your stepfather. All you ever wanted really, was to be loved. You married into a relationship with a man that grew up with the same abuse as you did.

To have nothing, to be neglected and abused was the only life you knew. Your own children have grown up and shared the same abuse and neglect emotionally, though we were given everything materially. When you cannot love yourself, you do not know how to love others nor allow others to know and love you. You are not free to love nor fully express yourself and be all that you can be.

You left this world without wanting to see me. You forbade it for 3 years. By happenstance my brother walked into my hospital room just to find you in the hospital 3 doors down. You would have died never saying, "Goodbye" to me. You grew up in abuse and married into abuse. Your children learned what abandonment and abuse meant emotionally and verbally. We could have taken you away from all of that and cared for you but you decided to remain in that marriage.

This is a very difficult Mother's Day. God intervened and I was able to say, "I love you Mother, and Goodbye" before you died on April 25, 2010 at 8:06 p.m. at home. I will never forget the times I can remember that we shared as mother and daughter. These times of love and bonding came when you were free and not under the duress of my father, your husband.

I will never leave you nor will I ever forget you. Come to me in my dreams mother for I will be there and we will be free to fly away and be safe forever.

I love you and Happy Mother's Day.
Your daughter who would have died for you in a heart beat,
Moana ;) xo

This is one of the most beautiful belts I have ever seen in any culture.
The horses gleam as if they were running free in the sunlight. The burnt orange brown colour in the belt gives a nice contrast against the blue in the trousers. This is aesthetically as well as artistically beautiful. :)

His eyes...

His eyes were seen immediately after I uploaded my photo.
Who do I refer to as, "His eyes?" There is Ke Akua which is God in Hawaiian. I believe that there is no doubt that the sky holds so much to ponder....I see more than just His eyes, I see His face and beard too.....

YOU RAISE ME UP

God said, “Here’s My plan for you: Give your life to Me, and just let go.Have faith and pray, and read the Bible through, and you’ll have blessings more than you can know.” So simple, yet it brings me perfect peace, living life for God the way I should with direction, purpose, fullness and release.
Life with God is very, very good. For Freddy with love. We no longer live life puzzled. We are a
framed portrait of Christ's love and in fellowship, we can achieve anything together. Aloha, Moana :)

Translation: Recognize others, be recognized, help others, be helped; such is a family relationship.Explanation: Many native Hawaiians live with their extended family and family is the most important part of life for them. This saying teaches why they should put family first...In the Ohana or family, you know others and they know you, you help others and know you will be helped if there is anything you need.

This is what true happiness feels like. If it could be expressed in a photo, it would look like this. Rockets of fire and light bursting inside. The Holy Spirit/Ghost once felt within a soul, is never meant to leave. We must
choose wisely to make correct choices and follow His commandments
that we may be blessed with His Divine love.

The light that reflects upon the field is ethereal. It is so heavenly that is does not seem humanly possible to capture such beauty. Yet, I truly believe when God touches a life, He shows His light through another.

Eduardo Amorim has such a gift. It is within himself and seen and felt by so many others.
