"Little is known of the holy Martyr Phanurius, except that which is depicted concerning his martyrdom on his holy icon, which was discovered in the year 1500 among the ruins of an ancient church on Rhodes, when the Moslems ruled there. Thus he is called "the Newly-Revealed." The faithful pray to Saint Phanurius especially to help them recover things that have been lost, and because he has answered their prayers so often, the custom has arisen of baking the Phaneropita ('Phanarius-Cake') as a thank-offering." (Great Horologion)   There is a tradition that his mother was a great sinner, and that he was unable to convert her in her lifetime. After her death he prayed more for her salvation than for his own. As he was being stoned to death, he prayed: 'For the sake of these my sufferings, Lord, help all those who will pray to Thee for the salvation of Phanurius' sinful mother.' So, in Egypt, where he is much revered, many Christians pray 'O Lord, save Phanurius' mother and help me, a sinner.'

But does it also teach us how to deal with unrighteous judges in our lives? How often are you frustrated in your attempts to get satisfaction from some big corporation? Maybe you're overcharged on your cell phone bill or a product turns out to be shoddy. We'll apply a Bible lesson to the problem today. Jesus said, In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected man.And there was a widow who kept coming to him saying, Give me justice against my adversary.'For a while he refused, but afterward he said to himself, Though I neither fear God nor respect man, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will give her justice, so that she will not beat me down by her continual coming. When you email someone directly at the top, you'll discover that some companies have something called an executive escalations department.

See these websites for help finding an email address:CEO Email Addresses,ElliottAdvocacyandGetHuman.com. If that doesn't work, try to getanyone'semail address at the company. It has to be a personal address. Finally, it's always better to use email rather than the phone because it leaves a paper trail.

In this week's show, Simon talks you through his four-step process for stacking property deals, and how by following this you can greatly energise your property investing plans. KEY TAKEAWAYS Only buy in an area with strong rental demand, and accurately assess whether or not it's a viable property in terms of rental income, and how much you can hope to gain from it. Work out how much money you'll need in order to acquire the property. Remember that you don't always have to put money down, and can use strategies such as PLOs. Only buy a property that will give you a cashflow. There must be profit left over every month. Everything you buy must make money straight away. Look at the potential return on investment for the property. We need to make sure that any money we put into a deal is working effectively on our behalf. BEST MOMENTS 'You need to understand how much rental income you can achieve' 'For every property you're buying in a traditional way, assume you'll need about 30% of the purchase price upfront' 'If a property isn't making you a cashflow, I wouldn't buy it!' 'You need to factor in that cost and then add in the return that you'd like to make' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone:  http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk  ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Many businesses have been hit hard by the cancellation of large, indoor events as a result of COVID-19. According to the Live Events Coalition, an industry group, 90% of events businesses have seen cancellations since the beginning of the pandemic. But in the face of diminished demand for some events, other options have … popped up.  Pop-up picnics have been one area of the event industry that has thrived. The plush affairs are often complete high-end dinnerware, custom table settings, themed decor and gourmet catering. And they've caught fire recently on social media. In the latest episode of the Speaking Startup podcast, we speak with entrepreneurs who started pop-up picnic businesses in Missouri over the last year about why they think the trend has been so popular and what the future holds. Plus, in the latest story from our Outstate series on entrepreneurship in small-town Missouri, we speak with 19-year-old Olivia Niemeyer, owner of Two Scoops Ice Cream in Bowling Green, about her family's passion for entrepreneurship.

For a short film, For Your Consideration tackles many topics that have long been part of the regular discourse for people in marginalized community, but thanks to social media, become "trending topics" to those no part of those communities. To these people, things like racism, accessibility, women's right and the prison industrial complex are just things they can chat about at brunch.Written and directed by Poppy Gordon, the film with its dark humor, contrasted by bright colors and sunny L.A setting, shows the stunning lack of self-awareness a small group of privileged socialites display when they randomly decide to make a they're sure will be worthy of an Oscar. Only interested in getting recognition by the elites, they pick apart and cast aside what trending social justice cause is worth their time and attention. In our discussion for Carolyn Talks..., Poppy and I talk about the perceptions and misconceptions people have of the disenfranchised, and how social media plays a part in the discourse around advocacy, activism and the ways companies and people with power manipulate them to their advantage.

On this episode of the Unhashed Podcast, we get into the game theory of paying ransoms, speculation on how to abuse UK's legal system CSW-style, how S2F is totally undeniable and a perfectly predictive model, when NIMBYism with bitcoin mining, and the death of nuance with mining council press releases.Another YUGE cyber ransomware attack surfaced over the weekend. Per the BBC, the gang behind the attack has demanded $70m paid in Bitcoin in return for a "universal decryptor" that it says will unlock the files of all victims. The REvil group claims its malware, which initially targeted US IT firm Kaseya, has hit one million "systems". This number has not been verified and the exact total of victims is unknown. On Friday, cyber-security firm Huntress Labs estimated about 200 firms had been affected.The "supply chain" attack initially targeted Kaseya, before spreading through corporate networks that use its software. '" https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-57719820Despite a UK court order to the contrary, Cobra is still hosting a copy of the whitepaper at Bitcoin.org - https://bitcoin.org/en/bitcoin-paper. Cobra, the pseudonymous operator of the Bitcoin.org website, has been ordered by London's High Court to discontinue hosting its copy of the Bitcoin white paper. Citing copyright infringement brought forward by nChain Chief Scientist Craig Wright, the judge had no option but to rule a default judgment because Cobra chose not to make an appearance, Wright's representation, Ontier LLP, said via a statement on Monday. Judge David Hodge, QC issued an injunction prohibiting Cobra from infringing Wright's copyright in the U.K., either through making the white paper accessible for download on the website or 'œin any other way.' An order requiring bitcoin.org to publish a copy of the court's order was also issued while an inquiry will be established to determine the damages caused by Cobra against Wright, Ontier said. @Outputintern on Twitter said: "Default judgement awarded to Craig Wright. Cobra has to put a notice up on http://bitcoin.org for six months about the default judgement. Also has to pay Craig's costs, ‚35,000 in interim payments ordered so far."One of the most widely used charts for predicting massive future bitcoin price gains is showing the largest divergence since January 2019. The bitcoin stock-to-flow model currently suggests the price of bitcoin should be around $77,900. But as of Monday, the cryptocurrency was trading at $33,668, well off the all-time high price of $64,829 reached in April. Crypto analyst 'œPlanB,' who has been documenting his stock-to-flow model since March 2019, tweeted that BTC/USD is now the furthest away from the estimated value in more than two years. He said the next six months will 'œmake or break' the stock-to-flow model.NIMBY strikes Bitcoin, as Fox Business reports, A gas-fired power plant being used to support a Bitcoin mining operation in upstate New York has divided local residents over the environmental toll of the energy-intensive process versus the economic benefits the business brings to town. Locals who have protested the operations of the plant, which is on the shores of Seneca Lake, have expressed concern that it's polluting the air and heating the lake, the largest of the Finger Lakes. During the 12 months ending Feb. 28, 2021, the company said it mined 1,186 bitcoins at a cost of approximately $2,869 each. '" https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/bitcoin-mining-operation-in-finger-lakes-sparks-local-concernsSpeaking of mining, the Bitcoin Mining Council presented their first report this week. The council is now composed of 23 members, with 14 new member mining companies in addition to 9 founding members the council now represents 32% of the mining industry. Bitcoin miners are rapidly becoming more energy efficient using an increasing percentage of sustainable sources (wind, solar, hydro, geothermal, nuclear) in their energy mix. Bitcoin is powered by a higher mix of sustainable energy (56%) than any other industry or major country. Also, from the report, 'œThe Bitcoin network uses a negligible amount of the world's energy '" 189 terawatt hours as compared to 162,194 terawatt hours of total global energy use (0.02% of all energy consumed).' '" https://bitcoinminingcouncil.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/2021.07.01-BMC-Q2-2021-Materials.pdfIt just became a whole lot easier and much more profitable to mine for bitcoin. The world has known for months that more than half the world's bitcoin miners would be going dark as China cracked down on mining. Now that it's happened, the bitcoin algorithm has adjusted accordingly to make sure miner productivity doesn't continue to fall off a cliff. That adjustment '" which took effect early Saturday morning '" also means that way more cash is going to the bitcoin miners who remain online. 'œThis will be a revenue party for miners,' said bitcoin mining engineer Brandon Arvanaghi. 'œThey suddenly own a meaningfully larger piece of the pie, meaning they earn more bitcoin every day.' China had long been the epicenter of bitcoin miners, with past estimates indicating that 65% to 75% of the world's bitcoin mining happened there, but a government-led crackdown has effectively banished the country's crypto miners. 'For the first time in the bitcoin network's history, we have a complete shutdown of mining in a targeted geographic region that affected more than 50% of the network,' said Darin Feinstein, founder of Blockcap and Core Scientific. Fewer people mining means that fewer blocks are solved each day. Typically, it takes about 10 minutes to complete a block, but Feinstein told CNBC the bitcoin network has slowed down to 14- to 19-minute block times.

Great Bible Truths Podcast Episode 140 Lessons from their lives Talk 6: Gideon (Part 3) - Raising up an army Welcome to talk 6 in our series Lessons from their lives. Today we've reached the final section of our talks on Gideon. So far we've seen how when God's people were in defeat because they had disobeyed the Lord, when they turned back to him God raised up a leader. Last time we saw three things that were essential in preparing for victory: Destroying your idols The power of the Spirit Finding the will of God. Today we're in Judges 7. Our subject is Raising up an army and we'll be considering the men and methods God uses in bringing his people into victory. To save time, rather than reading the whole chapter, here's a quick summary:   God tells Gideon that he has too many people in his army. He doesn't want Israel to boast that her own strength has saved her. He tells Gideon to send away everyone who is fearful and 22,000 leave, reducing the army to 10,000.   But God says it's still too many! The men are to be taken down to the water and selected according to the way they drink - more of this later. As a result Gideon is left with just 300 men.   During the night God tells Gideon, if he's afraid, to go down to the Midianite camp and listen to what they're saying. Gideon arrives just as a man is telling his friend his dream in which a round loaf tumbled into the Midianite camp and overturned it. His friend interprets the dream as meaning that God has given Gideon victory over the Midianites.   This encourages Gideon and he prepares to attack. He divides his men into three companies of 100 men. Each man is given a trumpet and an empty jar with a torch inside. Following Gideon's lead they go to the edge of the enemy's camp and simultaneously smash the jars and shout, ‘A sword for the Lord and for Gideon'. The Midianites flee and the Israelites are victorious.   So, what can we learn from this story about the men and methods God uses in bringing his people into victory? It's very clear that doing things God's way is the only guarantee of success.   The Men God chooses   Those who are courageous   3 Anyone who trembles with fear may turn back   It's not surprising that people were afraid. The enemy was very powerful:   12 The Midianites, the Amalekites and all the other eastern peoples had settled in the valley, thick as locusts. Their camels could no more be counted than the sand on the seashore.   But there's a difference between being afraid and trembling with fear. Courage is not the absence of fear. Courage is acting despite your fear. It's clear from verse 10 that even Gideon was fearful but the assurance of God's presence is the antidote to fear 6:11 The Lord is with you mighty warrior.   How often does God remind us of what he has told us many times? Cf. Hebrews 13:5-6 5 ... be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you." 6 So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?"   Fear can be incapacitating! But we don't have to let it. The Lord is with us.   Now let's look at vv 5-7.   5 So Gideon took the men down to the water. There the LORD told him, "Separate those who lap the water with their tongues like a dog from those who kneel down to drink." 6 Three hundred men lapped with their hands to their mouths. All the rest got down on their knees to drink. 7 The LORD said to Gideon, "With the three hundred men that lapped I will save you and give the Midianites into your hands. Let all the other men go, each to his own place."   To be honest, the precise details are not quite clear here, but the NLT summarises as follows: When Gideon took his warriors down to the water, the Lord told him, “Divide the men into two groups. In one group put all those who cup water in their hands and lap it up with their tongues like dogs. In the other group put all those who kneel down and drink with their mouths in the stream.”   So the men are separated into two groups:   those who cup water in their hands and lap it up with their tongues like dogs those who kneel down and drink with their mouths in the stream   Now this may have just been God's way of reducing the army to the size he wanted, but it's also possible that the way they drank revealed something about their character. One way of interpreting this is as follows:   GROUP A Why did God choose these? Have you ever noticed how a dog drinks? With its eyes always open for the enemy. This suggests to me that God uses those who are disciplined.   GROUP B Why did God reject these? Drinking water is a legitimate exercise. Indeed, it's essential! But it's not something we should bow down to. There are many legitimate things in our lives, less essential than water, that can, if we're not careful, become a barrier to our service for the Lord if we let them become the controlling motivation for our actions. This suggests to me that God uses those who do not bow down to the legitimate. They are totally dedicated to the task.   So God uses those who are courageous and disciplined and totally dedicated.   The methods God uses   He wants us to rely totally on him   2 The LORD said to Gideon, "You have too many men for me to deliver Midian into their hands. In order that Israel may not boast against me that her own strength has saved her   He continually encourages and guides us   9 During that night the LORD said to Gideon, "Get up, go down against the camp, because I am going to give it into your hands. 10 If you are afraid to attack, go down to the camp with your servant Purah 11 and listen to what they are saying. Afterward, you will be encouraged to attack the camp."   He even uses the enemy to bring about his purposes   13 Gideon arrived just as a man was telling a friend his dream. "I had a dream," he was saying. "A round loaf of barley bread came tumbling into the Midianite camp. It struck the tent with such force that the tent overturned and collapsed." 14 His friend responded, "This can be nothing other than the sword of Gideon son of Joash, the Israelite. God has given the Midianites and the whole camp into his hands."   He has a unique solution for every situation   16 Dividing the three hundred men into three companies, he placed trumpets and empty jars in the hands of all of them, with torches inside.   He has a right moment for everything   17 "Watch me," he told them. "Follow my lead. When I get to the edge of the camp, do exactly as I do. 18 When I and all who are with me blow our trumpets, then from all around the camp blow yours and shout, 'For the LORD and for Gideon.'" 19 Gideon and the hundred men with him reached the edge of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just after they had changed the guard. They blew their trumpets and broke the jars that were in their hands. 20 The three companies blew the trumpets and smashed the jars. Grasping the torches in their left hands and holding in their right hands the trumpets they were to blow, they shouted, "A sword for the LORD and for Gideon!"   He expects us to know our place and to follow the leaders he has appointed   17 "Watch me," he told them. "Follow my lead. When I get to the edge of the camp, do exactly as I do.   21 While each man held his position around the camp, all the Midianites ran, crying out as they fled.   He works with us   22 When the three hundred trumpets sounded, the LORD caused the men throughout the camp to turn on each other with their swords. The army fled...     He guarantees us victory 25 They also captured two of the Midianite leaders (AV princes), Oreb and Zeeb. They killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb at the winepress of Zeeb. They pursued the Midianites and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon, who was by the Jordan.   The princes were taken Satan will be destroyed Jesus has already won the victory!

Bible Reading: 2 Corinthians 1:3-10"Summer, I love these earrings!" Natalie held up the gold-and-pink bunny rabbit earrings to her ears and looked in the mirror. "Thanks! I have lots of pairs now that I got my ears pierced." Summer opened the top drawer to show her friend. "Did it hurt lots?" Natalie asked as she sorted through the earrings. Summer shrugged. "Just a pinch." Natalie swept her blonde curls behind her ear to look at her unpierced lobes. "I want to get my ears pierced someday, but I'm a little afraid." "I was really scared when I got mine pierced," Summer admitted with a sigh. "You know what helped me? My friend Savannah went with me when my mom took me to get them pierced, and she encouraged me the whole time. She stayed right next to me and reminded me that it would be over quickly. She had gotten her ears pierced a few months before, so she knew what it was like." Natalie nodded. "Remember the lesson we had at church yesterday, Summer? Savannah comforted and helped you in your distress, just like Jesus comforts and helps us." "Right! You know what I'm going to do for you, Natalie? Whenever you decide to get your ears pierced, I'll go with you and encourage you, just like Savannah did for me. That will help you with your fear! I was so scared, but with my friend right there who had already gone through the same thing, I felt braver." Natalie jumped up on a stool and struck a power pose. "My drama teacher had us memorize Second Timothy 1:7: 'For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline.'" She toppled off the stool with a shriek and Summer grabbed her arm, helping her stand back up. The girls giggled uncontrollably until Summer took a deep breath and said in her best theater voice, "Two are better than one! If one falls down, their friend can help them up! I'm glad we're friends, Natalie." "Me too!" Natalie waved her hand regally. "We can help each other say farewell to fear!" -Savannah Coleman How About You?What are you afraid of? Everyone has fears, but if you're a child of God, He promises to be with you when you're afraid. Jesus knows exactly what you're going through, and He will comfort you and give you strength when you face scary things. As His child, you can offer help and comfort to others when they're afraid. How can you be a help to someone and encourage them to say farewell to fear? Today's Key Verse:For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline. (NIV) (2 Timothy 1:7)Today's Key Thought:Do not fear; God is with you!

Senator Pat Toomey returns to the Dom Giordano Program to warn listeners about the forthcoming debate and narrative surrounding the enormous ‘For The People Act,' which Toomey frames as an effort to eliminate the filibuster to allow a clear path to further their radicalized agenda. Toomey lays forth what he predicts the media narrative to look like surrounding the Senate debate of the issue, and explains how the bill is not what it's being sold as, that being a bill to make it easier for Americans to vote in elections, and further pushes the country toward a one-party rule. Then, Giordano and Toomey discuss the decision by Bishops to reconsider whether or not Biden should be given communion based on his beliefs on the abortion issue.

Morton Klein, president of the Zionist Organization of America, said that during the current Hamas attacks, "for the first time ever, Israeli Arabs are attacking Jews in Israel. Israeli Arab citizens are attacking Jews in Israel, they're burning down synagogues, they're burning down Jewish homes, they're destroying Jewish cars, they're burning down Jewish apartment buildings."

  “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” A. W. Tozer     NEEDS TO BE MET BY MOTHERS   Safety Safety comes in the form of a person.   Nurture The Soviet Union did an experiment many years ago where they took infants and only gave them their basic needs food and sleep, but no human contact or nurturing and most of them died. It is why skin-to-skin is so vital in babies and the miracles of that concept with premature babies is amazing because, Without nurture, we wither.   Basic Trust We aren’t born trusting; trust is learned.  That our interactions form trust and most of our EI comes from our relationship with our Mother   Belonging and Invitation Feeling wanted is not an intellectual exercise, but a relational one. You can’t say you are wanted you have to experience in a relationship. They want me around!   Someone to Love The development comes not from being loved but by loving.   Godly attributes are found in Mothering. We were created in his image.   “Never! Can a mother forget her nursing child? Can she feel no love for the child she has borne? But even if that were possible, I would not forget you!” Isaiah 49:15 NLT   TYPES OF MOTHERS   The Phantom Mom   emotionally unavailable. Present physically but not emotionally. You lack that connection which causes detachment Which makes it hard for you to emotionally connect with other people and the problem is you don't just magically start emotionally connecting you have to make conscious decisions on how to start bringing that into your life because it's not a Behavior you learned as a child.   The China Doll Mom   fragile, unable to deal with stress. We tend to learn how to deal with emotions through our mothers how to deal with some of those stressful emotional things so if your mom is very fragile and unable to deal with stress and she was this China Doll it causes you to have this lack of being able to contain your emotions. When you're a kid You don't just have emotions you are emotional and your mother helped you try to contain those emotions and teach you that unless she didn't learn that as a child and so she is very stressed out doesn't know how to contain them then that's to learn Behavior you gather from them.   The Controlling Mom   unable to empower, release. Lack of making your own decisions. You feel like you are not in control some else is. You become timid never take a risk.   The Trophy Mom   Accept you if you perform. You feel like you have to prove you are worthy to be loved. You struggle with imperfections.   The Still-the-Boss Mom   The goal as you age into adulthood is that you actually become friends with your parents you enjoy your parents unfortunately some Dynamics is it doesn't matter if you're 40 years old 50 years old I'm still the boss and you're still the little child in my mind the way I treat you.  Which then can cause you to always feel like you're less than with other leaders and other people or you go the opposite and you have to dominate because you're insecure and you keep people down.   NEEDS TO BE MET BY FATHERS   Unconditional, expressed love   Unconditional which means there are not limits or bars to reach AND IT IS EXPRESSED. Many adults say they have never heard their Dad say I love you!   Security and Comfort   When Dad is home I am safe. We are protected.   Praise and Affirmation   Not just saying I love you but I see you and the value that is in you and calling that out!   Provision   Dad is a provider. He takes care of my needs. I feel secure.   Purpose in Life   That he lets them know they can make a difference in this world and they will be great men and women as they grow.   So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.” Romans 8:15 NLT   According to the Life Application Bible, “In Roman culture, the adopted person lost all rights in his old family and gained the rights of a legitimate child in his new family. He became a full heir to his new father’s estate. Likewise, when a person becomes a Christian, he or she gains all the privileges and responsibilities of a child in God’s family.”   TYPES OF FATHERS   Performance-oriented   demand obedience and performance. No rest always striving always proving yourself and your well.  Never good enough.   Passive   home but not home, roommate. There but not there. Comes home and zones out and never involved in their life. Lack of emotion, passion, initiative can develop in adults.   Absentee   simply not around. Either left or travels so much that they miss a lot of life. You lack intimacy and fear people will always leave you or not be there.   Authoritarian   prioritize the law over love. Follow my rules. You better obey me! So you always look at rules over relationships as you grow up You fear always failing and the punishment that will follow that.    Abusive   emotionally, physically, or sexually abusive. He is supposed to protect you, and love you, and affirm and As you grow it can cause Shame, guilt, anger, lack of trust.   Now you may be saying Pastor Mike  I don't really deal with either one of those I have a father that was good and a mother that was good and they provided cared for they were present make nurtured me love me. that's phenomenal and those are wonderful things and I am so glad that you were experienced as a child was that. I will say though this that the distance between a dysfunctional and abusive parent and a good parent is this (Show with hands) what the distance between good and perfect is this and how good your parents are there are not perfect like your God is and we still need to rise above the good to experience the perfect love and relationship with God. How do we move Beyond good to perfect or how do we move Beyond abusive distant and hurtful relationships with our parents to a perfect relationship with God?     1. RECOGNIZE   How many people when you go out to eat with your kids and they get a kids menu one of the games on there is two pictures that look identical except there are ten or so things in the picture that are different and your objective is to Circle and find what is difference between the two pictures. the same is true with the when we've you got with there are Godly attributes he places in both of our parents however they're not perfect and they've experienced things and so you got to recognize and I asked how is God different than my parents?   this is not dishonoring to your parents and it's not bashing your parents it's what we need for healing and how we move forward for the healthy view of God for ourselves and also transfer that to our children.   what you experienced as a child is not your fault what you do as an adult is your responsibility. Have you ever known something was wrong but you were too busy to deal with it or you procrastinated and forgot to do with it? like a light bulb goes out and what are your kitchens you keep forgetting to go to the store to buy a lightbulb so you just go weeks and weeks with a dim room. or there's up toilet that just runs a little bit and you just live with it even though it makes your water bill go up. or maybe your wife tells you over and over that she needs new windshield wipers and you keep forgetting and then when it rains she's driving in dangerous ways through a storm barely be able to see through her windshield. I mean I would never do any of those things those are not examples of me another imperfect people.   So many times that's us in life. we know there's things that need to be addressed and fixed we just muscle through it we just ignore it we just act like we can push it off but it's causing us to live a life with a dim view and we are not able to see clearly it is costing us in ways sometimes we don't even understand.   There are distinct differences between your Earthly parents and your heavenly father and you've got to recognize it.   'See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! 1 John 3:1 NLT   The Lord’s loving kindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23 NASB   Even if my father and mother abandon me, the Lord will hold me close. Psalms 27:10 NLT   Give yourself permission to feel to grieve and investigate those differences. to be honest with yourself.   I had to investigate those incorrect views of God based on the way I was raised in therapy. through therapy I started identifying hurts from my past I started remembering occasions in my life. Through therapy I started realizing that I had to learn to cope with some dysfunctions from my childhood survive through painful moments and as I became an adult I started responding to people in situations out of an instinctive nature that was unhealthy not a conscious decision to be healthy. you got to recognize these things or you can't walk towards health.   2. RELEASE   You're going to have to give your parents a gift that  humanly speaking they may not deserve. That gift is forgiveness. it's not letting them off the hook and it's not saying that what they did was right and not wrong. It's saying I'm releasing them to God. I'm not the judge he is, I'm not the corrector he is and I'm not the creator he is.   Story of Monkeys in India and the hollowed-out coconuts.   I do know this… Unforgiveness is more about you than the other person involved… Unforgiveness impacts your life far more than the other person… Unforgiveness is far beyond the offense and if we do not understand that it will destroy us… Resentment points your anger and animosity toward a person or a situation… When resentment controls us it tells ourselves that this person or situation is keeping us from happiness or joy… We make a person or situation our focal point for happiness…   Surely resentment destroys the fool Job 5:2   Resentment destroys us… It controls us… It becomes what we focus on and think about… We tend to get any quiet times we focus on the person and the incident… We have imaginary conversations with that person if we had the opportunity to tell them how we feel… It becomes all consuming.   Bitterness becomes something deeper because it goes beyond the person or the situation…. It becomes your outlook on life… It starts creeping into every area of our life… No longer are we upset at just the one incident or person, but we start seeing it impact other areas of our life and we are more sensitive in other areas of our life…   Work at living in peace with everyone, and work at living a holy life, for those who are not holy will not see the Lord. Look after each other so that none of you fails to receive the grace of God. Watch out that no poisonous root of bitterness grows up to trouble you, corrupting many. Hebrews 12:14-15   The writer of Hebrews refers to bitterness as a POISONOUS ROOT… That it grows in our hearts and is poison to our life. Roots do 3 things.. ROOTS ABSORB, STORE, AND GROW.   So a root of bitterness is going to absorb every negative feeling that surround resentment and bitterness… Anger, hurt, jealousy, hate, vengeance, retribution, sadness, broken heart, pain…    Then it stores it…. It harbors those feelings… Those feelings start to become a part of you… Now sadness defines, anger defines you… heart ache defines you… You start to realize that joy, happiness, and peace is the rarity not the norm in your life….   It starts to grow… Now what was a bad situation now is monumental… Now it is like a domino effect in your life that and more and more effects you and maybe people offend often that in the past never would… Then many times DEPRESSION starts to creep in and take up residence in your heart and mind….   Then Hebrews says it CORRUPTS MANY… That it starts to effect our relationships… Marriages, with our children, family members, our friends…  We start bearing the fruit of bitterness We see bad in others We justify criticizing and gossiping We secretly celebrate other misfortunes We bring people down/.   3. REJECT   'For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world... Ephesians 6:12 NLT   The devil wants to use the shortcomings of your parents to keep you from walking in an intimate relationship with God to keep you from your god-given identity in him. the reality is true hurt people hurt people and the shortcomings of your parents is a domino effect of what they've experienced in life.  there is the truth about something called a generational curse and unfortunately negative things compound and they grow through generation after generation. However, all authority is in Jesus when we recognize and we release we have the authority in the name of Jesus to reject those negatives.   We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ.  2 Corinthians 10:5 NLT   4. RECEIVE   Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow. James 1:17 NLT   Whatever pain you experienced whatever loss you've experienced do those parental figures in your life you must start replacing the pain with God's truth and filling those voids with God himself. he will never leave you or forsake you, cast your cares upon Him for he cares about you, he made you wonderfully complex oh, you are his workmanship oh, he hold you in the palms of his hands, his eyes search and find you, never can you escape his presence. THE PROMISES GO ON AND ON!   'And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.' Romans 8:38-39 NLT

'For some people, it takes 70 years for them to make an impact on the world; for Bryson, it took just 7.' - Amanda, Bryson's Mom Over the past 20 months, I have heard about many amazing children through their powerful stories. None, however, affected me in quite the way that Amanda's story of Bryson did. Perhaps it is because he was a 27 week premie and it reminded me of days caring for tiny premies. Perhaps, it is also because of his many months, and even years, spent in the hospital with his multiple medical problems. Perhaps it is because I think of all of those 'medical moms' that have become such dear friends to me. It could be any of the above, but I don't think it is really any of those reasons at all. I think the reason why this story is so powerful to me is because of the way this story shows that knowing Bryson made everyone around him a better person. Everyone. Amanda  says that nurses tell her they are better nurses, more caring because they knew Bryson. He impacted doctors, staff, even the people assigned to clean his room. When he died, a hospital and a whole community grieved with Amanda for it seems that everybody knew Bryson.  Bryson's impact on the world, however, did not die when he did. His legacy continues to make people better even today eight years later. Amanda's husband did not meet her until after Bryson died, but he feels that he knows Bryson and holds him as part of his family. Perhaps the most powerful story ones at the end of the podcast episode when Amanda shares a letter written by the father of Bryson's favorite doctor who met him for only 15 short minutes. All I can say is, 'Wow. What a kid! If we could all just be a little more like Bryson.'
