AFTER THE WAR, Claire Phillips was hailed as a hero. Even before she was back in North America, her hometown newspaper was singing her praises. Soon afterward, Reader's Digest picked up the story and spread it nationwide. She wrote a memoir of her war activities, Manila Espionage, and it was published in 1947. The following year, at Fort Lewis, Gen. Mark Clark presented her with the Medal of Freedom, America's highest award for a civilian. The accolades kept coming... until suddenly, one day, they didn't.

Record for Future Generations Jonathan Parnell Download Psalm 102,“Hear my prayer, O Lord; let my cry come to you! 2 Do not hide your face from me in the day of my distress! Incline your ear to me; answer me speedily in the day when I call! 3 For my days pass away like smoke, and my bones burn like a furnace. 4 My heart is struck down like grass and has withered; I forget to eat my bread. 5 Because of my loud groaning my bones cling to my flesh. 6 I am like a desert owl of the wilderness, like an owl of the waste places; 7 I lie awake; I am like a lonely sparrow on the housetop. 8 All the day my enemies taunt me; those who deride me use my name for a curse. 9 For I eat ashes like bread and mingle tears with my drink, 10 because of your indignation and anger; for you have taken me up and thrown me down. 11 My days are like an evening shadow; I wither away like grass. 12 But you, O Lord, are enthroned forever; you are remembered throughout all generations. 13 You will arise and have pity on Zion; it is the time to favor her; the appointed time has come. 14 For your servants hold her stones dear and have pity on her dust. 15 Nations will fear the name of the Lord, and all the kings of the earth will fear your glory. 16 For the Lord builds up Zion; he appears in his glory; 17 he regards the prayer of the destitute and does not despise their prayer. 18 Let this be recorded for a generation to come, so that a people yet to be created may praise the Lord: 19 that he looked down from his holy height; from heaven the Lord looked at the earth, 20 to hear the groans of the prisoners, to set free those who were doomed to die, 21 that they may declare in Zion the name of the Lord, and in Jerusalem his praise, 22 when peoples gather together, and kingdoms, to worship the Lord. 23 He has broken my strength in midcourse; he has shortened my days. 24 “O my God,” I say, “take me not away in the midst of my days— you whose years endure throughout all generations!” 25 Of old you laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. 26 They will perish, but you will remain; they will all wear out like a garment. You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away, 27 but you are the same, and your years have no end. 28 The children of your servants shall dwell secure; their offspring shall be established before you.”Throughout human history, many philosophers and theologians have agreed that the one great and most fundamental fear of all humans is the fear of death.That's the fear beneath every other fear. They claim our mortality is like a shadow that hangs over our entire lives and affects everything we do. And this way of thinking is in the Bible. The Book of Hebrews even uses the image of imprisonment and slavery — Hebrews 2:15 says that “through the fear of death we are subject to lifelong slavery.” We have been held in bondage by the fact of our impending doom. Death is a tyrant like that. But, this morning, I have really good news! The Lord has looked down from his holy height — the Lord in heaven has looked down on this earth — and he has acted to set us free.He knows our need and he has come to rescue us!And he has done it for a purpose! The purpose is so that we would praise him! So that we would declare his name! So that peoples from all over the world would worship him!And today, because we believe this, and because we are actually gathered here to worship God, we are fulfilling Psalm 102. According to verse 18, this psalm was written for us. Y'all look at verse 18 for a minute. The psalmist says, verse 18: “Let this be recorded for a generation to come, so that a people yet to be created may praise the Lord …”He's saying: I'm about to write something for future generations, for a people God will create in the future — and I'm recording it so that one day they will read it and praise him …What exactly is he recording? What does he want us to know?Verse 19: “that [God] looked down from his holy height; from heaven the Lord looked at the earth, to hear the groans of the prisoners, to set free those who were doomed to die.”The psalmist, from a long time ago, from an ancient generation, he recorded these words with us in mind — we are the generation to come, we are the people yet to be created, we are the spiritual children of verse 28 …And he wants us to know that God has done what nobody else can do — God has rescued us from eternal death and everlasting judgment! And he has done this through his Messiah!So, believe in Jesus Christ and praise God! If we do that, we have righty applied Psalm 102. That's the psalm! … And, this psalm makes me wonder … if a past saint recorded this for future generations, what are we recording for future generations? If we think about our children and their children and generations yet to be created, what do we want them to know about God? What would we record for them?A lot of truths probably come to mind, but looking at Psalm 102, there are three truths that stand out. So this morning, here's what I'd like to do: Looking at Psalm 102, I want to show you three truths about God we should record for future generations …1. Record this: God will hear our prayers for help (verses 1–2, 17)We see this right away in verse 1:“Hear my prayer, O Lord; let my cry come to you!”Notice the psalmist is asking God to hear him because he knows that God hears him. That's the only way this make sense. The psalmist is confident that God will hear himask to be heard. But it's about more than being heard, he wants to be helped. Verse 2:“Do not hide your face from me in the day of my distress! Incline your ear to me; answer me speedily in the day when I call!”He wants God's attention and answer. He wants God to eagerly move toward him and make a way — and more like now than later. There's an urgency here. The psalmist is at the fork in the road. And we get this. We've been here before.We've all been in moments where we feel stuck or overwhelmed and we don't know what to do. We've come to the end of ourselves and our own resources, and we don't have the answer. We call this being in a troubled-heart situation.And often, if we're honest, being there makes us either angry or sad. Because it's just so uncomfortable. Our default as humans is to either harden our hearts and shake our fists … or harden our hearts and give up. We either wanna fight … or quit. But, it's in those moments, like the psalmist, when we should pray and cry out to God. Because in those moments God is especially attuned to us.Especially AttunedThis is verse 17:“he regards the prayer of the destitute and does not despise their prayer.”Now, we know that God always regards the prayers of his children, no matter their circumstances, but when I say that God is especially attuned to us in our troubled-heart situations, I'm trying to capture what the Bible tells us here: “God regards the prayer of the destitute.”Or Psalm 9:12,“[God] does not forget the cry of the afflicted.”Psalm 34:18,“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.”Psalm 69:33,“The Lord hears the needy …”Jesus himself says, when you're burdened and heavy laden, Don't run from me, come to me. Our destituteness — our desperate need and spiritual poverty — does not repel God from us, but it draws him near to us when we pray. Now, look, God drawing near doesn't mean he gives us what we want right away. It doesn't mean he lifts the darkness right away. But he gives us himself — he's with us, and he is at work. We want to record this. We want our children to know: God will hear our prayers for help. 2. Record this: God will outlast our suffering (verses 3–17)This becomes clear in verse 12, but first we gotta see verses 3–11.In verses 3–11, the psalmist, as “one afflicted,” describes his affliction in 15 statements. And they are uncommonly poetic. Eight of the 15 statements are metaphors that use the word “like.” Listen to these images:My days pass away like smokeMy bones burn like a furnaceMy heart is struck down like grass that has witheredI am like a desert owlI am like a lonely sparrow on a roofI eat ashes like breadMy days are like an evening shadowI wither away like grassThe theme here is that the psalmist feels like his life is fleeting and isolated. It's fleeting like smoke, fleeting like an evening shadow, fleeting like grass that was sprayed with Round-Up before it bakes 12 hours under the blazing sun.We've seen withered grass before (or maybe weeds). It goes from ‘green and lush' to ‘yellow and dry' … and soon they're dead and gone. The psalmist says that's his life. Fleeting.Then for isolated, in verse 6, he's like a desert owl. And I don't know much about desert owls … translators are actually not sure what kind of bird this is. The King James Version translated this word as a pelican. But whatever the taxonomy of the bird is, the idea here is that it's a loner bird. It's a bird that is by itself in the waste places. If you can imagine it: there's a landfill of ruins, and nothing is living except this one bird all alone. That's what it's like for the psalmist. These are powerful images of suffering. The psalmist is naming his situation well. … which is really helpful … I think the only thing worse than suffering like this is to suffer like this and not know what to call it. Suffering with awareness is at least a step in the right direction. Because that's what sets up verse 12.Remembering GodNotice the psalmist has described where he's at through verse 11 — he's looked at himself — but then in verse 12 he says:“But you, O Lord, are enthroned forever;You are remembered throughout all generations.”And here in verse 12 through verse 16 he sets his mind on who God is, on what God is doing, and on what God will do. There's a combination of present reality and future hope, but it starts here with verse 12 where the psalmist declares something foundational. He says: God is enthroned forever and God is remembered throughout all generations.This means first that God is eternal. When psalmist says “God is remembered throughout all generations” he's talking about generations past, present, and future. Long before we were ever here, and long after we're gone, God is God, and he has been, and will be, remembered. In the long train of human history, we're just a tiny part, but God is eternal.And it gets better. It's not just that God exists eternally, but God is enthroned eternally. That means he reigns. He's in control. And if the God who is in control is also eternal, that means that God will outlast our suffering. God is bigger and he's gonna live longer! So suffering does not have the final say, but instead he's at work in it. He's doing something through it. He's building something through it — verse 16.What He's BuildingAnd sometimes we can see it, other times we can't, but we can rest assured it's happening. That is the hope of the psalmist! God, enthroned forever, in his mercy and kindness, is building now what is gonna result one day in all nations fearing the Lord and all kings of the earth bowing before him. That's the hope of the Old Testament — Habakkuk 3:19 — “… the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.”And that's the hope of the New Testament — Revelation 7:9 — “a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages … [are] crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”We want to record this! We want our children to know … God will outlast our suffering, and that means his redemptive purposes are guaranteed. He will accomplish every good thing that he intends. Even when we feel like a desert owl, he is building something glorious.3. Record this: God will comfort us with truth of Jesus (verses 23–28)In Psalm 102 there's a change that comes in verse 25, and it makes the whole psalm.I want to show it to you, but we need to start in verse 23. In verse 23, the psalmist picks back up on his lament from verses 2–11. He says, verse 23: “He has broken my strength in midcourse; he has shortened my days.”And he's talking about God doing this. It's just like in verse 10 when he says his suffering is because of God's indignation and anger. The psalmist is bearing God's wrath. The superscript already told us this is “The prayer of one afflicted.” And in the context of the Psalms as whole, this is the voice of the Messiah. Psalm 102 is like Psalm 22 — ultimately we're reading the prayer of the Messiah in his suffering. And so the psalmist, the Messiah, says to God in verse 24: “O my God,” I say, “take me not away in the midst of my days — you whose years endure throughout all generations!”And you'll notice in your Bible that the quotation ends there with verse 24. This is what the suffering Messiah says to God. Then in verse 25 we read:Of old you laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.Now get this: starting in verse 25, we are reading God's answer back to the Messiah. The Messiah cries out to God in verses 23–24, and God answers the Messiah in verses 25–28. And we know this for sure because this is what the writer of Hebrews tells us in the New Testament, in Hebrews Chapter 1.You don't have to turn there, but in Hebrews Chapter 1, the writer has been describing the divine glory of Jesus, and to make his case, he quotes several verses from the Old Testament where God speaks about the Messiah. The writer of Hebrews says that “of the Son”, or “about the Son”, God says this — and in verse 10 he quotes from Psalm 102:25.So, according to the New Testament, God the Father says to God the Son, the Messiah: “You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the work of your hands. …”I want to make sure you get what's happening here! In Psalm 102, verse 25, in response to the Messiah's suffering, God the Father comforts him with the truth of who he is. The Messiah feels like a desert owl. His strength has been broken, his days are shortened. But God says to him: Of old you laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you will remain; they will all wear out like a garment. You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away, but you are the same, and your years have no end.Church, this is the truth of Jesus! Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever — and this was God's comfort to Jesus himself in his suffering, and it's God's comfort to us today. Remember the truth of Jesus! Remember who he is, and that because we're united to him by faith, our future is as secure as he is.Our hope is as alive as he is. It's living hope. Record that! That is what we want our children to know! The truth of Jesus changes everything.And I pray that's something our kids are learning from us, especially in these days. I mean, we are teaching something. We are modeling something. …Earlier this week, Melissa and I had dinner with Rob and Becca Ketterling. Rob is the lead pastor of River Valley Church here in the south metro. He planted River Valley back in 1995, so he's been a pastor a little longer than I have, and in recent months Rob has been a friend to me — I'm so thankful for him. He and his wife took us to dinner, and for an hour and half, they just poured into us. We were sharing with them our burdens, and especially for the children of our church and our own children. And Pastor Rob said to me, obviously, it is right to protect our families and children. But then he said to me: I know you want to make your children safe, but what if God wants to make them heroic?What if God wants to give them heroic faith? What if God is raising up in your church right now future Daniels and Deborahs who will seek the good of these Twin Cities for his glory?This challenged me. And I just wanna say: I'm in! Sign me up! Would that God do that!I mean, what do we really want for our children? What do we want them to know? What are we recording for future generations?I'll tell you three truths from Psalm 102:God will hear our prayers for help. God will outlast our suffering. God will comfort us with the truth of Jesus. And that's what brings us to the Table. The TableAt this Table is when the truth of Jesus takes center stage. The bread and cup represent his body and blood that he sacrificed for us at the cross, and so when we eat and drink, we remember what he did, and we remember our union with him. By his grace, we are united to him by faith, and all of his blessings become ours. This is why this table is only for Christians. If you trust in Jesus Christ, we welcome you to eat and drink, and give him thanks!

Inga Dalrymple is a visual artist whose practice explores painting and drawing as a dialogue between material, gesture and perception. Working between abstraction and observation, she is interested in how paint can hold traces of movement, memory and experience.Inspired by nature and the feelings it can evoke, Inga works through processes of layering, erasing and reworking. These actions become a record of time and thought, revealing decisions and changes made during the making of a work.Gesture sits at the centre of her practice. For Inga, each mark carries memory, emotion and a sense of place, while also acting as a way of thinking through painting. Forms appear and disappear, allowing the surface to guide the work as it develops.In this episode of Art Wank, Inga talks about painting as a process of thinking, the role of gesture and memory, and how abstraction can give form to experiences that are difficult to define.Inga is represented by Otomys.

At age 84 I am staring at the end of life as I have known it. Yet I am seeing, with the eye of faith, beyond my death and burial. I am living into the resurrection of Jesus the LORD. However, living in faith has not delivered me from doubt, from grief, from many losses, and fears. I cannot deny my own dying. It is on top of me every day. The worst of it is contemplating separation from Donna, my wife of 58 years. I think we need to talk to each other about death and about our dying. In fact, we need to die in the church declaring the "victory that has overcome the world." It is also true that at 84 and in reasonably good health, I am called to share my life with those running alongside me and those a generation or two behind. Donna and I have love, knowledge, and wisdom that others need. Too many of us are victimized by the foolishness of isolation, self-pity, and a thumb sucking second childhood. For us it is a time of living wisely, sharing the victory of faith and the wisdom gained from 60 years of preaching, pastoring, and prophesying in the church, as well as 30 years of lawyering, combined with parenting two adult children and eight grandchildren. Come join us on this journey of memory and anticipation as we learn to live by "Dying Into The Resurrection."
It is a privilege to welcome recording artist Vince Montage to The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. At just 20 years old, Vince has already written over 500 songs and collaborated with heavyweights like Polo G and Scott Storch (Credits include 50 Cent, Dr. Dre, and Beyoncé), but nothing he's made has been quite like this. On May 8th, he released "Fleeting," his debut single and the opening statement of a bold new era. Raw, introspective, and unflinchingly honest, the track confronts the emotional weight of impermanence in love and in the versions of ourselves we can't hold onto. “Fleeting” explores the ache of emotions that are impossible to hold onto: the moments, relationships, and feelings that slip away just as quickly as they arrive.Written during a period of rapid personal change, the song reflects Vince's desire to return to moments in time and the complexity of feeling deeply for something temporary. Vince's new era is marked by a desire for authenticity and emotional honesty, as he reminisces about moments that slip away as quickly as they appear. Vince's creative process stems from internal dialogue combined with a distinct talent for identifying complementary melodies.In the case of “Fleeting,” the melody came long before the final production, allowing the emotion of the record to take center stage. The track was produced by Pacific, with Vince operating as a co-producer alongside his longtime collaborator, Grammy Award-winning producer-engineer Mixx, with whom he has worked since his early teens and has collaborated with the likes of Teyana Taylor and French Montana. Together, the duo has crafted a soundscape that balances subtle percussion with emotional intensity.For Vince, authenticity is everything – “If you can reach a lot of people, you can have a big impact on other people's lives in a bunch of different ways.” Vince Montage's musical focus has now shifted from creating music that is an extension of pop culture to creating music rooted in authenticity. “When you're making music for the purpose of trying to catch a trend, you can make a song that becomes a hit, but it's not going to influence people in the same way that making music from your own personal experience does.” Originally from Columbus and now based in Miami, Vince began his music journey at just 13 years old. What began as a creative desire to collaborate with creatives Vince admired on SoundCloud quickly evolved into a legitimate, all-encompassing career and relentless creative pursuit for Vince, culminating in collaborations with influential artists. Over the past seven years, he's worked to refine an innovative style unique to him but shaped by influences ranging from some of his favorites: From Prince to Queen to contemporary innovator, Mk. Gee. On this edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Vince Montage spoke about how SoundCloud has helped him, the stories behind his most-streamed Spotify songs, including “Light Switch,” “Back 2 U” – his collaboration with Karri, and “Stuck in this Mood” with Polo G.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jake-s-take-with-jacob-elyachar--4112003/support.

How to build life that doesn't collapse when excitement fades.Building on passion solely guarantees failure. Passion is feeling that comes and goes. I'm doing masonry full time, 50 hours a week—am I passionate about masonry? March 2025: 150 downloads. March 2026: 1,500 downloads—I don't care, it's one person at a time. I'd rather have 1,000 real buyers than 100,000 tire kickers. Purpose: the thing you can't NOT do differs from passion: the thing you feel excited about. God is in "I am"—everything after is bullshit. Fuck the Pharisees, fuck religious scholars who recite scripture without living it. The mind is meant to be servant, not the master.When you have lemons, you could let them dry out—or juice them when they're ripe.

There are journeys that merely take us from one destination to another, and then there are journeys that quietly transform the way we look at humanity itself. My years of travelling across the length and breadth of India and abroad as a journalist have never been limited to assignments, deadlines, cameras, or reports. They have been an ongoing education in human emotions, contradictions, resilience, beauty, and the astonishing plurality of life.Every city, every village, every railway compartment, every tea stall, every backstage corner of a theatre, and every modest household has introduced me to people I had never imagined I would meet. And perhaps that is the greatest gift of travelling with open eyes and receptive ears- the world constantly surprises you. Society reveals itself not merely through headlines or events, but through ordinary individuals carrying extraordinary stories within them.Over time, I realised that my true fascination did not lie only in meeting deadlines or “covering” events. My heart was increasingly drawn towards people- their obsessions, passions, peculiarities, silences, artistic madness, vulnerabilities, and invisible emotional landscapes. Some people devote their lives to preserving a dying musical tradition. Some quietly nurture literature in forgotten towns. Some continue creating despite poverty, loneliness, or complete absence of recognition. There are also those whose tenderness, pain, humour, and courage never become visible to the larger world, yet remain unforgettable once encountered.As a documentarian and storyteller, I often feel that my responsibility extends beyond information. Documentation, for me, is not the mechanical act of recording facts. It is an emotional and ethical process of preserving the fragile textures of human existence before they disappear into silence. Memory is not merely nostalgia; it is continuity. It helps societies remain connected to their emotional, artistic, and moral inheritances.There are countless moments from my journeys that continue to live within me like secret lamps- illuminating my understanding of people and creativity. Many experiences cannot even be fully articulated. Some encounters become deeply personal treasures, impossible to translate entirely into language. They remain within me as guiding lights for an unsuppressable creative impulse that continues to shape my work and my perspective.I have often felt that the world moves too quickly to truly listen. We are surrounded by noise, speed, consumption, and endless distraction. In such a climate, attentive listening itself becomes an act of resistance. To sit with someone, to allow them space to remember, to speak, to sing, to reflect - these are deeply human acts. Through audio, visuals, conversations, interviews, and archival efforts, I try to preserve not only personalities, but also the emotional atmosphere surrounding them.One such memorable moment came while I was working on a documentary exploring the journey of Marathi theatre. During the course of filming, I met at the home of the accomplished singer Shaila Datar. It was one of those gentle, unplanned encounters that remain etched in memory far beyond the formal purpose of the assignment. Prachi displayed immense warmth and kindness towards me, she graciously agreed to hum a few lines in her beautifully trained and tender voice.That small moment may appear insignificant in the larger scheme of things, but for me, it carried the essence of why I continue doing what I do. It was not merely about recording a voice. It was about preserving an atmosphere, a sensitivity, a fleeting human exchange that otherwise would have vanished into time. Cover and Text IrfanSuch moments remind me that documentation is not simply technical work- it is an act of emotional preservation. Read more in Memorywala journal.

beyond the horizon.Ca: Joan, Laia i Pere estaven emocionats, tot i el fred, perquè avui era el dia de la sortida escolar.En: Joan, Laia, and Pere were excited, despite the cold, because today was the day of the school excursion.Ca: La primavera començava a desfer la neu i el gel, revelant petits pedaços de terra sota el blanc brillant.En: Spring was beginning to melt the snow and ice, revealing small patches of land under the bright white.Ca: Joan era un noi aventurer, amb una gran passió per la fotografia d'animals.En: Joan was an adventurous boy, with a great passion for animal photography.Ca: Sempre portava amb ell un quadern on dibuixava i prenia notes sobre els animals que somiava trobar.En: He always carried a notebook with him where he sketched and took notes about the animals he dreamed of finding.Ca: Aquesta vegada, el seu objectiu era capturar una foto rara d'un mussol nival.En: This time, his goal was to capture a rare photo of a snowy owl.Ca: El grup de l'escola s'entretenia amb les explicacions de la mestressa, però Joan estava inquiet.En: The school group was entertained by the teacher's explanations, but Joan was restless.Ca: Els seus ulls exploraven el paisatge, esperant veure un indici del mussol.En: His eyes were scanning the landscape, hoping to see a hint of the owl.Ca: Laia i Pere van riure mentre intentaven mantenir-se calents, fregant-se les mans i saltant per no sentir el fred.En: Laia and Pere laughed as they tried to keep warm, rubbing their hands and jumping to avoid feeling the cold.Ca: De sobte, el professor, el senyor Rovira, va avisar que el temps empitjorava.En: Suddenly, the teacher, Mr. Rovira, warned that the weather was getting worse.Ca: Havien de tornar al campament, però Joan encara no havia pogut fer la seva foto.En: They had to return to camp, but Joan hadn't been able to take his photo yet.Ca: Sentia la urgència dins seu, barallant-se amb la seva pròpia prudència.En: He felt the urgency inside him, struggling with his own prudence.Ca: Tornar o arriscar-se a quedar-se una estona més?En: Go back or take the risk of staying a little longer?Ca: Llançà una mirada a Laia i Pere.En: He glanced at Laia and Pere.Ca: "Tingues cura", li va dir Laia amb un somriure tímid, entenen els seus desitjos.En: "Take care," Laia said with a shy smile, understanding his wishes.Ca: Joan va decidir quedar-se una mica més.En: Joan decided to stay a bit longer.Ca: Va veure com el grup s'allunyava i es concentrà en la seva missió.En: He watched as the group walked away and focused on his mission.Ca: Aleshores, després d'uns minuts eterns, va veure un moviment sobre una branca nevada.En: Then, after what seemed like endless minutes, he saw movement on a snow-covered branch.Ca: Allí estava, majestuós i calmat, un mussol nival amb els seus ulls penetrants mirant el paisatge blanc.En: There it was, majestic and calm, a snowy owl with its piercing eyes looking out at the white landscape.Ca: Joan va agafar la càmera, però just llavors, un cop de vent va aixecar la neu del terra, amenaçant la seva visió.En: Joan grabbed his camera, but just then, a gust of wind lifted the snow from the ground, threatening his view.Ca: El seu cor batia a mil per hora.En: His heart was racing a thousand miles an hour.Ca: Va respirar profundament i esperà, pacient i persistent.En: He took a deep breath and waited, patient and persistent.Ca: Finalment, el vent es calmà i el mussol es quedà quiet, com si posés especialment per a ell.En: Finally, the wind calmed, and the owl stayed still, as if posing especially for him.Ca: Joan va disparar la càmera, capturant el moment perfecte.En: Joan snapped the camera, capturing the perfect moment.Ca: Amb el cor ple d'alegria i amb la seva missió complerta, tornà corrent cap al campament.En: With his heart full of joy and his mission accomplished, he ran back to camp.Ca: Quan va arribar, el professor i els companys l'estaven esperant.En: When he arrived, the teacher and his classmates were waiting for him.Ca: "Veig que has tingut èxit", va dir el senyor Rovira somrient, veient l'expressió de triomf en el rostre de Joan.En: "I see you were successful," Mr. Rovira said smiling, seeing the triumphant expression on Joan's face.Ca: La classe aplaudí, admirant el valor i la paciència del seu amic.En: The class applauded, admiring their friend's bravery and patience.Ca: Joan va aprendre aquell dia que la natura és tan impressionant com imprevisible, i que la paciència pot ser la seva millor aliada.En: Joan learned that day that nature is as impressive as it is unpredictable, and that patience can be his best ally.Ca: La tundra àrtica, amb tota la seva immensitat i fredor, se li havia revelat com mai abans, deixant-li un record que duraria per sempre.En: The Arctic tundra, with all its immensity and coldness, had revealed itself to him like never before, leaving him with a memory that would last forever.

Rick Reeves - Lead Pastor and an elder of Gospel Community Church in Eugene, Oregon. Rick planted the church in 2015–2016 with a strong conviction to bring a gospel-centered congregation to the area. A passionate preacher who has served as the primary teaching pastor for about 10 years, Reeves emphasizes that Jesus is the true hero of the gospel story. In this episode, Rick Reeves joins us for a raw conversation on faith, fatherhood, and the "Proving Ground" of manhood. We strip away the misconceptions of Christianity to discuss the messy reality of the daily wrestle with sin and the relentless drive for approval. From his childhood reputation as a "Holy Terror" to navigating a complex relationship with his "no-bullsh*t" father, Rick shares how a broken past became a mission field.

Eric explores the Japanese concept of Sakura, using the transient bloom of cherry blossoms to highlight the fleeting nature of life and beauty. The speaker connects this cultural philosophy to the world of koi husbandry, explaining how these "living pieces of art" reach peak perfection only for a brief moment before aging. Through personal anecdotes about Japanese tattoo artistry and backyard pond construction, the narrative emphasizes that the value of an experience is often found in its impermanence. The episodes serves as a call to action for listeners to slow down and practice presence during life's most ephemeral moments. Ultimately, Triplett promotes a lifestyle of intentional appreciation, suggesting that the most meaningful memories are those we recognize as temporary. Key Takeaways: Slow down intentionally to witness and appreciate the fleeting moments of beauty that occur in your daily life. Embrace the reality that life's most valuable moments are temporary and cannot be frozen or repeated. Incorporate calming elements like the sound of water into your environment to help ground you in the present moment. Focus on being fully present during the "peak" seasons of your relationships and personal growth before they naturally transition. When you encounter a meaningful experience, sit with it quietly for a few minutes to let the lesson sink in before moving on to the next task.

This week I tackle the situation where AI tools are exploding everywhere while ROI and economic productivity is hard to find. I also discuss the “commoditization” of AI “features” and the shift in value to “AI applications,” which is good for all corporate buyers and users. You'll understand how important it is to build a long term strategy, despite all the experiments going on (contact us to see our HR Blueprint). I also discuss the Galileo Everywhere strategy and how we've been expanding Galileo to support employees and leaders, not just HR.

Inside your body, there is a large and amazing family of chemical workers who, although they usually last less than a minute, make life possible. There are so many different kinds of these chemicals, called prostaglandins, that science is just beginning to learn how important they are to life.Prostaglandins are made by just about every tissue in your body. They are made by tissue cells from stored fatty acids. When triggered, fatty acids swarm out of the cell walls and are quickly changed into the necessary prostaglandin. Prostaglandins are involved in regulating reproduction, breathing and circulation, among other things.Prostaglandins made by the cells lining our blood vessels relax the muscles around them so that more blood can flow through them. And blood platelets also produce another prostaglandin; when triggered, it enables the blood to clot and seal wounds. In the lungs, prostaglandins regulate the openings of air passages. They help protect the inside of your stomach. It is because aspirin inhibits prostaglandin production that it helps headaches and can cause stomach problems in some people. Prostaglandins have been implicated in the swollen, painful joints caused by arthritis.The human body is literally a symphony of thousands of carefully designed systems, each one playing in harmony with the other and all of them working together. This fact alone leaves no justification for the claim that we are designed by genetic accidents.I Corinthians 12:18"But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased."Prayer: Lord, I thank You that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I understand that it is because of sin that sometimes our systems do not work as You designed them. According to Your will, grant me healing in those cases, but let me always be aware of Your love and presence in my life. Amen.REF.: Shodell, Michael. The prostaglandin connection. Science 83.

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com Paul says, “We fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen… what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” (2 Cor. 4:18) “We fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen… what is seen is temporary, Temporary - pros-kee-ross Fleeting, non important for the task, WHEN I WAS 22 YEARS OLD SHOPPING FOR A CAR.

If eternity is real—and the Bible says it is—then living only for the moment- THE FLEETING is the most dangerous way to live. 1 Eternity Is More Real Than the Moment **Scripture:** 2 Corinthians 4:18 Paul doesn't say the visible world isn't real—he says it's **temporary**. Temporary doesn't mean unimportant. It means *not ultimate*… NOT THE PURPOSE Going on a cruise in 2 weeks… my wife “what are you going to pack”.

You don't get a bigger TV for it You don't hang family portraits. You don't panic if something breaks. Why? Because you know **you're not staying long**. Many of us are rearranging furniture in a world we were never meant to settle in.

Welcome to Season 5, Episode 49! Vroooommmm!!! We're exploring the story of Asian Pacific Islanders in Formula 1… and this is something we actually know a bit about. This is a sport long dominated by Europeans and a handful of South Americans, but there has been a small group of drivers of Asian Pacific descent who have made an impact in recent years. We'll share a little about F1 racing in general as well as when API began making their mark in the sport. In addition to recent drivers like Alex Albon (our favorite), Yuki Tsunoda, Zhou Guanyu, and now Arvid Lindblad, we'll also talk about a few engineers, leaders, and teams that have prominent Asian representation. In our recurring segment, we'll share what we're listening to. For Ted, it's the audiobook of Babel by R.F. Kuang. It's narrated by Chris Lew Kum Hoi and Billie Fulford-Brown. For Gen, it's the music of Sarah Kinsley… specifically the song Fleeting. If you like what we do, please share, follow, and like us in your podcast directory of choice or on Instagram @AAHistory101.
