When Job demands answers from God, hes met not with explanations, but with awe. In this powerful sermon, we explore how God responds from the storm, lifting Jobs eyes from suffering to the wonder, wisdom, and wildness of creation. Discover how Gods care is both cosmic and personal, and why we are never alone, even in the chaos. To catch up on the latest sermons from Deep Creek, go to iTunes, Spotify ordeepcreekanglican.comand check out the website for more info about whats happening. We are a welcoming and growing multigenerational church in Doncaster East in Melbourne with refreshing faith in Jesus Christ. We think that looks like being life-giving to the believer, surprising to the world, and strengthening to the weary and doubting. Read the transcript The word of the Lord is being read from the Book of Job, Chapter 38, verses 1 to 21. Then the Lord spoke to Job out of the storm. He said,Who is this that obscures my plans with words without knowledge?Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me.Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation? Tell me, if you understand.Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know. Who stretched a measuring line across it?On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstonewhile the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy?Who shut up the sea behind doors when it burst forth from the womb,when I made the clouds its garment and wrapped it in thick darkness;when I fixed limits for it and set its doors and bars in place,when I said, This far you may come and no farther; here is where your proud waves halt?Have you ever given orders to the morning or shown the dawn its place,that it might take the earth by the edges and shake the wicked out of it?The earth takes shape like clay under a seal; its features stand out like those of a garment.The wicked are denied their light, and their upraised arm is broken.Have you journeyed to the springs of the sea or walked in the recesses of the deep?Have the gates of death been shown to you? Have you seen the gates of the deepest darkness?Have you comprehended the vast expanses of the earth? Tell me, if you know all this.What is the way to the abode of light? And where does darkness reside?Can you take them to their places? Do you know the paths to their dwellings?Surely you know, for you were already born! You have lived so many years. Good morning everyone. We could probably have some light, I think. It might help you. I don't know if it'll make you go to sleep or not, but anyway. We are looking at, actually, four chapters in Job today, although we just had the start read. If you've got a Bible or something on your phone, you're welcome to follow along. But a lot of the material I'll have up on the screen or read out for us. Let's pray. Lord, we thank you for the richness of your word. And we thank you, Lord, that your kindness to us is in revealing who you are, who we are, and our place in this creation. We thank you, Lord, for your goodness to us this morning and every day, in providing all that we need for life and showing us the way to salvation through Your Son, Jesus Christ. We pray that you'd open our hearts today to all that you would say to us in Your Word by Your Holy Spirit. Amen. Left on Read with God Well, the young people have an expression: to be left on read. It means that you've sent a message to someone and they have clearly seen it. A read receipt has come through. It says delivered and read in whatever, you know, WhatsApp or Messenger or whatever. But they have not responded. So it's not like, you know, they haven't seen the message. Oh, they've seen it. But something about their life your message, your priority in their life means that you've been left on read. Well, at this point in the book of Job, Job is feeling like he is left on read with God. We've had speeches back and forth. We've had lots of human words. But in all the chapters between chapter 3 and 37, we've not had a word from God. Job has been crying out to God because of his suffering. All that he has lost, the changes in his life. Everything good that he had seems to have been taken away. And he believes that God is in charge of the world, and so he cannot understand the justice behind a righteous man such as himself receiving such terrible treatment at the hands of a good God. He had done good. Why had he not experienced good in his life? And he knew that he did not deserve this suffering, this change in his fortunes. So why was God doing it? He cries out to God. In fact, more than just sending God a message, he's actually longing to take God to court, if you like. He's kind of moving from just messages between friends to an episode of Law and Order. He is in the courtroom and he is crying out for God the defendant and the judge to answer him. So you actually see lots of courtroom imagery throughout the whole book of Job. We see at the beginning God, the heavenly Judge on the throne, and the angels coming before Him. The accuser comes and says, What is the justice in this man's life? You are saying he is worshiping you and being righteous, and yet he has so much. It's unjust. He doesn't really love you for you; it's because of all the stuff he's got. And so the whole scenario of Job's change in life and his suffering is set up in this sort of courtroom assembly. But Job himself then starts to style himself as a plaintiff in a court case, calling out to God to take his case and also to answer him as his opposition. He longs for there to be someone a witness, an arbiter, a mediator in the courtroom between him and God. And actually, when he calls for a Redeemer and says, I know there must be someone, he's still using this picture. I want someone to stand on my side, to be my legal advocate. To provide what I need. As I stand before God the Judge. God Speaks from the Storm So when we come to God speaking in chapter 38, we actually see God begin His own cross-examination of Job. God speaks. And yes, He will engage in this courtroom scene and these questions of justice. Now, what He says in answer to Job's complaints may be very unexpected. But when we see the beginning of chapter 38, we can imagine exactly a defense attorney standing there saying, Brace yourself. Are you ready for my questions? So God answers Job. In our NIV translation, we just have, Then the Lord spoke to Job. That's appropriate. I'm not a Hebrew scholar, but what I do know is that there's a difference between the way that God speaks here and the way God has spoken the only other times we've seen Him speak (in chapters 1 and 2). In chapters 1 and 2, God speaks to the Satan the accuser, the adversary and He does not... (the Hebrew doesn't use the normal everyday sort of reply form of the word). It's not like this is a dialogue between God and Satan. Satan says something and God speaks, but He doesn't "reply" in the sense that they are equals. Here, however, the language is back to normal. God answers Job, as you and I would answer or reply to one another in conversation. He has now brought Himself into dialogue with Job. Not that either one's character or essence has changed, but that God is willing to have a conversation with this human being. Face to face. But it's not really face to face. It's not equal. God speaks to Job out of the storm. Throughout the book of Job, Job has been using this imagery of God Himself. You might have heard that we are expecting a "weather bomb" off the east coast of Australia this coming week. And you think to yourself, Ah, do you need to just really escalate this imagery? It'll probably be quite rainy and windy. However, the picture of God speaking out of the storm is that escalated "weather bomb" language. This is power. This is threat. And Job knows this about God, because Job has used this language of Him before. In that first courtroom scene in chapter 9, when he's saying, You're the Judge I want to bring my case before You. But I feel so powerless. If He does come to me, He would crush me with a storm and multiply my wounds for no reason. And then, towards the end of the speeches, just before the final human arbiter (Elihu) speaks, Job says to God, You snatch me up and drive me before the wind; You toss me about in the storm. Elihu, in his speeches (before God finally speaks in answer), says this too about God: His thunder announces the coming storm. All the threat that you experience when a weather bomb is on its way... This is the power and holiness and otherness of the great God of the universe. But God, out of His great power and otherness, does not destroy Job when He speaks to him out of the storm. He says, Who is this that obscures My plans with words without knowledge? Brace yourself like a man. Like a warrior. I will question you, and you shall answer Me. And so we wonder, what will God say in response to Job's suffering and his request for justice? Will He go into the explanation of Satan coming before God in chapters 1 and 2? Will He say, Actually, you werent as righteous as you thought. Everybody gets tough times? What is He going to say? The Vastness of Creation Well, God begins His answer to Job by lifting his eyes to the vastness of creation. He lifts Jobs eyes above Jobs own human story, and He tells Job just how vast and indescribable how unfathomable and transcendent God really is. He begins by saying, Were you there when I laid the earths foundation? He pictures Himself as a builder and an architect. He says, Were you there? Who marked off its dimensions? Who stretched a measuring line across it? Did you lay the concrete footings? No, I did that. And more than just doing a building for you humans. This was set in a vast heavenly realm: ...the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy. God doesn't give a lot of insights into the heavenly realm in these chapters, but it's always there God's ways are ancient, transcendent. There were beings around before you, and they are truly beyond our comprehension. Have you ever given orders to the morning? Have you journeyed to the springs of the sea and walked in the recesses of the deep? (Maybe the Mariana Trench, or whatever it's called something I learned from Octonauts.) What is the way to the abode of light? Have you entered the storehouses of the snow, or seen the storehouses of hail, which I reserve for times of trouble? Does the rain have a father? From whose womb comes the ice? Can you bind the chains of Pleiades or loosen Orion's belt? (He's talking about the stars.) Can you bring forth the constellations in their seasons and lead out the Bear with its cubs? (That's referring to a constellation.) Can you raise your voice to the clouds? Do you send the lightning bolts on their way? God's ways are ancient and transcendent and truly beyond our comprehension. Science may get us so far, but a lot of what we observe, we still not we are still not able to say why or how and for what purpose. But God knows. And God has been in this business for an awfully long time. God's Intricate Care for Creation But He also then says moving from this large picture down to an intricate care picture. He says: Who gives the ibis wisdom? Who gives the rooster understanding? Do you hunt the prey for the lioness and satisfy the hunger of the lions? Who provides food for the raven when its young cry out to God and wander about for lack of food? Do you know when the mountain goats give birth? Do you watch when the doe bears her fawn? God knows. God's knowledge of creation is far greater than human knowledge, and it's intricate and caring. And you might notice that these animals and birds mentioned are not ones that humans domesticate or find useful. They aren't God speaking about the cattle and the sheep grazing (there are parts in the Psalms where He does that, to make a different point: See what I can do to care for you.). But this is not that. This is, See all the strange and unconnected-to-human-life parts of creation that I know, that I love. My knowledge is intricate. You say I haven't seen your suffering. I see all. And I care for all. Wild and Playful Creatures And then related, and starting to move on from here He starts to have this really kind of strange, wild and playful description of creation. Who let the wild donkey go free? I gave it the wasteland as its home; it laughs at the commotion in the town. Will the wild ox consent to serve you? Can you hold it to the furrow with a harness? Will you rely on it for its great strength? (The answer being no not a chance.) Then this long excursus on the ostrich: The wings of the ostrich flap joyfully, though they cannot compare with the wings and feathers of the stork. She lays her eggs on the ground and lets them warm in the sand, unmindful that a foot may crush them or that some wild animal may trample them. She treats her young harshly, as if they were not hers. She cares not that her labor was in vain, for God did not endow her with wisdom or give her a share of good sense. Yet when she spreads her feathers to run, she laughs at horse and rider. The ostrich is a nonsense creature. God says it's got this big body and a long neck and a funny tiny head. It lays its eggs in the sand rather than putting them in a nest or sitting on them. It makes these foolish decisions. It looks ridiculous. And yet when it runs, God says, I delight in it. It is fast and crazy and wild and stupid, and I love it. This creation that I have made. Look around. It is full of wildness and nonsense and play. And it is not always centered on you. An ostrich goes its own way. A horse, a hawk. An eagle. An ox. A mountain goat, a donkey. All of these wild, free creatures. I made them. I love them. I delight in them. And they're not really part of your story. Behemoth and Leviathan: Chaos Contained He goes on then into chapter 40 and 41, and He moves into these animals that seem to be mythological. And the point here is that God's power contains and holds in check all that seems out of control, including chaos and injustice. So we've got wildness, we've got nonsense, we've got play. But now we've got two creatures called Behemoth and Leviathan. Now, in my household, we have conversations about whether Behemoth (which I made along with you and which feeds on grass like an ox; what strength it has in its loins, what power in the muscles of its belly, its tail is like a cedar, etc., etc.) is a hippo, a rhino, or a dinosaur because its tail is like a cedar and hippos have, like, tiny little tails. What is this creature? The Leviathan. Similarly, it's in the sea. Can you pull in Leviathan with a fishhook? Tie down its tongue with a rope? Can you make a pet of it or put it on a leash for the young women in your house? No one is fierce enough to rouse it. Who then is able to stand against Me? Everything under heaven belongs to Me. These creatures Behemoth (this kind of mythological, dinosaur-like, big, scary chaos creature on land) and Leviathan (the Kraken, if you like, in the ocean) are mythological beasts, terrifying to all the sailors and the pirates and everybody in the Psalms. Leviathan stands for all the forces of chaos and opposition to God. There are creatures, of course, on the earth that God could say, "I control this," but these ones seem to be imbued with this kind of symbolic chaos meaning, and even a dark and evil meaning. The great beast on land and the great beast in the sea. But God contains and holds in check all that seems out of control, all that seems terrifying, all that seems chaotic and even unjust. There is chaos in God's world, and yet it is not out of God's ultimate control. God's Justice Is Bigger Than Ours Finally, in chapter 40 at the beginning, He teaches us this. God's story is bigger than our story. God's justice is bigger than our justice. But its not in opposition to our story and our justice. I don't know if you've ever heard preachers or teachers say, "Well, you know, I appreciate that your heart is for the vulnerable. I appreciate that you don't feel that that is right. But God's justice God's rightness is beyond ours." And it sort of undercuts that feeling that sometimes we have, that things aren't right and that we're supposed to live with this very, very significant cognitive dissonance that, you know, God doesn't actually care about the things we care about. No, God's justice is bigger. God's ways are higher. He does care about human right and wrong. He does care about the treatment of the vulnerable and the marginalized. He does care when people do wicked things. So in chapter 40, He says again to Job, Brace yourself like a man. Would you discredit My justice? Would you condemn Me to justify yourself? Do you have an arm like God's? Can your voice thunder like His? Unleash the fury of your wrath; look at all who are proud and bring them low. Look at all who are proud and humble them. Crush the wicked where they stand. Bury them all in the dust together; shroud their faces in the grave. "Then I Myself will admit to you that your own right hand can save you." God cares about the behavior of human beings, and He knows when the proud are being wicked. He knows when human beings who have abused and hurt other human beings deserve justice, and He will bring it ultimately, of course, in the death and the condemnation of the wicked. But God's justice is not in opposition to the justice that you and I desire, even though He is so far above our ways. Job's Humble Response So Job responds, and he responds twice. (If you were at Andy Prado's talk on Wednesday night, you'll know that the first response is one of humility, and we'll look at the next one next week.) He knows, actually, you're right: my story is small. Humans are small in light of God's wisdom and power. Job answered the Lord, I am unworthy how can I reply to You? I put my hand over my mouth. I spoke once, but I have no answer twice, but I will say no more. "I am humbled. You have shown me the vastness of Your creation. You have lifted my eyes to the intricacy of Your plans, and I know that they are beyond my own story." Humans Are Small, But Not Worthless or Alone But God would not want Job to stop there. He knows that Job needs to hear more than just "humans are small." (So really, is that why He's come to him?) Humans are small. God is big. But humans are not worthless. When God came to us in Jesus Christ, He did the same. He looked around. Creation. He saw what was there. He saw the sparrows rising and falling. And He said to the people around Him, Look at this creation. God cares for these. He could be quoting Job about these sparrows. But Jesus said, Are you not worth more than many sparrows? Does not God care for you so much more than even these utterly gorgeous little creatures? Psalm 8 says that God deserves all the praise and glory. And yet what is humankind? That you care for them? That you raise them up? That you love them? Humans are small, but they are not worthless. And humans are small. But they are not alone in this world with its chaos and sufferings. The God who is big is also personal. God came to Job to answer him. God answers him as a friend a very high, transcendent, complex, holy-other friend. God says, Look around at this creation. It is made personally by Me, and I am with you in it. In its chaos, in its dark, in its light. You are not alone in this world. A New Way of Looking at Things From C.S. Lewis I learnt something new a new way of looking at things from C.S. Lewis this week. I'm going to read to you from one of his essays, from a book called God in the Dock. He says: There is an activity of God displayed throughout creation a wholesale activity, let us say which people refuse to recognize. The miracles done by God Incarnate, Jesus, living as a man in Palestine, perform the very same things as this wholesale activity, but at a different speed and on a smaller scale. So think about the things that we've looked at in Job chapters 38 to 41: the seas being in God's control. Jesus calming the storm. Jesus walking on water. God feeding the the ravens. God taking great delight in His creation. Jesus feeding the 5000. Jesus bringing healing and restoration. Jesus having meals. Jesus turning water into wine. One of the chief purposes of these miracles is that people, having seen a thing done by a personal power on the small scale, may recognize, when they see the same thing done on the large scale, that the power behind it is also personal indeed the very same Person who lived among us 2000 years ago. The miracles, in fact, are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see. Of that larger script, part is already visible and part is still unsolved the script of God's plan. In other words, some of the miracles of Jesus do locally what God has already done universally (provide calm, be over all the chaos). Others do locally what He has not yet done but will do (healing, restoration, resurrection). In that sense, and from our human point of view, some are reminders and others prophecies. God creates the vine and teaches it to draw up water by its roots and, with the aid of the sun, to turn that water into a juice which will ferment and take on certain qualities. Thus, every year from Noah's time till ours, God turns water into wine. But when Christ at Cana makes water into wine, the mask is off. But the miracle has only half its effect if it only convinces us that Christ is God (obviously essential, and we always preach it like that). It will have its full effect if whenever we see a vineyard or drink a glass of wine or juice, we remember that here works He who sat at the wedding party in Cana. God's entire creation is personal. God knows it. God loves it. The other transcendent, powerful God is the God who walked among us in Jesus, but who has never been far from us in every circumstance. Amen.

Aliens, in the context of extraterrestrial life, have captivated human imagination for centuries. While conclusive proof of their existence has yet to be obtained, there are several compelling reasons to believe that aliens are real. Here is a summary of the key points supporting this notion:Vastness of the universe: The universe is unimaginably vast, with billions of galaxies, each containing billions of stars. It is statistically improbable that Earth is the only planet to harbor life among this vast cosmic expanse. The sheer number of potentially habitable planets suggests that the existence of alien life is highly plausible.Exoplanet discoveries: In recent years, astronomers have made significant strides in discovering exoplanets—planets orbiting stars outside our solar system. Many of these exoplanets lie within the habitable zone, where conditions for liquid water and life as we know it are possible. The discovery of such planets further strengthens the case for potential extraterrestrial life.Extremophiles on Earth: Life on Earth has proven to be remarkably adaptable, with organisms known as extremophiles thriving in extreme environments previously thought to be inhospitable. These extremophiles, found in places like deep-sea hydrothermal vents and acidic hot springs, demonstrate that life can survive under harsh conditions. If life can endure such extremes on Earth, it raises the possibility of similar life forms existing elsewhere in the universe.UFO sightings and encounters: Throughout history, there have been numerous reports of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and encounters with alleged extraterrestrial beings. While many UFO sightings can be attributed to misinterpretations or hoaxes, some incidents remain unexplained, suggesting the presence of unidentified aerial phenomena. These encounters, coupled with credible testimonies from military personnel and pilots, provide intriguing evidence that something unexplained is happening.Astronomical anomalies: There have been instances where unexplained astronomical phenomena have been observed, such as unidentified signals from deep space known as fast radio bursts (FRBs) and unexplained fluctuations in starlight known as Tabby's Star. These anomalies raise questions about their origins and have led scientists to consider the possibility of extraterrestrial intelligence being involved.The Fermi Paradox: The Fermi Paradox poses the question: If there are numerous potentially habitable planets in the universe, why haven't we encountered any extraterrestrial civilizations? This paradox suggests that there may be factors at play that we are yet to understand. One possible explanation is that intelligent alien life exists but remains beyond our current technological capabilities to detect or communicate with.While these points offer compelling reasons to believe in the existence of aliens, it is important to approach the subject with scientific skepticism and an open mind. Further exploration, technological advancements, and scientific discoveries may eventually provide definitive answers to the question of extraterrestrial life.Now, with stunning new claims being brought by what is being called the most credible whistleblower in the sphere of UFO's to ever come forward is making shocking claims about Aliens and the technology that humans have reversed engineered from crash sites for decades.Do you believe?(commercial at 16:37)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Intelligence Officials Say U.S. Has Retrieved Craft of Non-Human Origin - The Debrief

Psalm 104 is a beautiful and poetic hymn of praise that exalts God as the Creator and Sustainer of the universe. This psalm is part of the Book of Psalms in the Old Testament, attributed to King David, and it reflects on the grandeur and majesty of God as revealed through the natural world. Structure and Themes The psalm is structured as a meditation on God's creative power, with the psalmist taking the reader through various aspects of creation, each highlighting God's sovereignty and care. 1.God's Majesty and Glory (Verses 1-4): The psalm begins with a call to bless the Lord, acknowledging His greatness. God is described in majestic terms, clothed in light, stretching out the heavens like a tent, and riding on the wings of the wind. The imagery here sets the tone for the rest of the psalm, emphasizing God's transcendence and power. 2.The Foundations of the Earth (Verses 5-9): These verses describe God's creation of the earth. He established the earth on its foundations, so it cannot be moved. The psalmist recounts how God set boundaries for the waters, ensuring that they do not cover the earth again after the flood. 3.God's Provision for Creation (Verses 10-18): This section focuses on God's provision for all living creatures. Springs of water flow between the mountains, providing water for animals and plants. The earth is depicted as being full of life, with plants growing for food, trees providing shelter for birds, and mountains serving as habitats for wild goats and coneys. This highlights God's intimate involvement in sustaining life. 4.The Cycle of Day and Night (Verses 19-23): The psalmist marvels at the regularity of the natural world. The moon marks the seasons, and the sun knows when to set. Day and night each have their purposes, with humans working during the day and nocturnal animals, like lions, hunting at night. 5.The Vastness of the Seas (Verses 24-26): The psalmist praises God for the vastness of the sea, which teems with countless creatures, both great and small. Leviathan, a sea creature, is mentioned as a playful being that God created, further illustrating God's dominion over all things. 6.Dependence on God (Verses 27-30): All creatures depend on God for their sustenance. The psalmist reflects on how God provides food at the right time and how life and death are in His hands. When God sends His Spirit, life is created, and when He takes away their breath, they return to dust. 7.The Eternal Praise of God (Verses 31-35): The psalm concludes with a prayer that God's glory endures forever and that He takes pleasure in His works. The psalmist expresses a desire to sing to the Lord as long as he lives and ends with a call for sinners to be removed from the earth, ensuring that God's praise remains pure. Key Messages •God's Sovereignty: The psalm highlights God's control over all aspects of creation. Everything in nature is a testament to His power and wisdom. •God's Provision: The psalm emphasizes God's role as the sustainer of life, providing for the needs of all creatures, great and small. •Humanity's Place: While humans are part of creation and work within it, they are also portrayed as being dependent on God's provision, just like all other creatures. •Worship and Praise: The appropriate response to recognizing God's power and provision is worship. The psalmist models a posture of humility and praise, encouraging others to do the same. Psalm 104 is a reminder of the beauty and order of God's creation and calls believers to recognize His hand in the world around them. It invites us to join in the ongoing praise of the Creator, whose works are both magnificent and meticulous.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sendme-radio--732966/support.

Episode 119    In this episode, I discuss the concept of spiritualising forgiveness and its implications in faith and daily life. I talk about how the struggles many people often face in integrating love and forgiveness in their lives are due to an insecure attachment with God and a fear of not doing the right thing. I talk about the pitfalls of spiritualising forgiveness and how true forgiveness should lead to human flourishing rather than spiritual subjugation. I discuss the necessity of healing ourselves instead of just focusing on forgiving others, arguing that forgiveness is both a journey and God's work, not ours alone. I conclude this episode by offering practical advice on working towards forgiveness within a secure relationship with God.Watch this recording on YouTube.Follow me on my Instagram account @animann for more material on the integration journey and subscribe to my monthly reflections on Begin Again.CHAPTER MARKERS(00:00:13) - Introduction(00:00:50) - Exploring the Struggless with Forgiveness(00:03:34) - Three Signs Indicating you may be Spiritualising Forgiveness(00:09:32) - Understanding the True Essesnce of Forgiveness(00:23:09) - Real-Life Complexities of Forgiveness in our Relationships(00:29:48) - Exploring the Process of Forgiveness(00:30:40) - Why do we Spiritualise Forgiveness(00:38:41) - Embracing the Vastness of God's Love(00:47:24) - How to Navigate our Emotions and Forgiveness(00:55:04) - ConclusionTRANSCRIPTAvailable here.REFLECTION PROMPTDo you recognise any of the three signs of spiritualization in your life?

Welcome back to Ramadan Reflections 2024! On this blessed 9th day of Ramadan, we delve into Surah al-Baqarah (2), verse 274, reflecting on the timeless wisdom it holds. In this verse, Allah extols those who give generously, day and night, in secret and openly. We explore the significance behind these actions, drawing inspiration from the exemplary life of Imam Ali (peace be upon him). Imam Ali's unparalleled generosity, even with meager resources, sheds light on the essence of charity. His actions, revealed through hadith, illuminate the profound meanings of giving in various ways and times. Giving in Secret vs. Openly: We delve into the virtues of discreet charity, reflecting sincerity, humility, and purity of intention. Conversely, open giving inspires others, fostering a culture of generosity. Nighttime vs. Daytime Giving: We uncover the symbolism behind giving at night, emphasizing sincerity and devotion to Allah. Daytime charity offers visibility, facilitating direct interaction and community involvement. Continuous Generosity: Imam Ali's consistent acts of charity highlight the importance of continuous giving, beyond sporadic gestures. Vastness of Divine Reward: Allah's promise of reward underscores the immeasurable blessings of charity, transcending material wealth. Through practical tips and reflections, we're encouraged to emulate Imam Ali's virtuous qualities, fostering compassion, and spiritual fulfillment. In a world often consumed by materialism, his teachings offer a timeless blueprint for living with purpose and virtue.

Aliens, in the context of extraterrestrial life, have captivated human imagination for centuries. While conclusive proof of their existence has yet to be obtained, there are several compelling reasons to believe that aliens are real. Here is a summary of the key points supporting this notion:Vastness of the universe: The universe is unimaginably vast, with billions of galaxies, each containing billions of stars. It is statistically improbable that Earth is the only planet to harbor life among this vast cosmic expanse. The sheer number of potentially habitable planets suggests that the existence of alien life is highly plausible.Exoplanet discoveries: In recent years, astronomers have made significant strides in discovering exoplanets—planets orbiting stars outside our solar system. Many of these exoplanets lie within the habitable zone, where conditions for liquid water and life as we know it are possible. The discovery of such planets further strengthens the case for potential extraterrestrial life.Extremophiles on Earth: Life on Earth has proven to be remarkably adaptable, with organisms known as extremophiles thriving in extreme environments previously thought to be inhospitable. These extremophiles, found in places like deep-sea hydrothermal vents and acidic hot springs, demonstrate that life can survive under harsh conditions. If life can endure such extremes on Earth, it raises the possibility of similar life forms existing elsewhere in the universe.UFO sightings and encounters: Throughout history, there have been numerous reports of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and encounters with alleged extraterrestrial beings. While many UFO sightings can be attributed to misinterpretations or hoaxes, some incidents remain unexplained, suggesting the presence of unidentified aerial phenomena. These encounters, coupled with credible testimonies from military personnel and pilots, provide intriguing evidence that something unexplained is happening.Astronomical anomalies: There have been instances where unexplained astronomical phenomena have been observed, such as unidentified signals from deep space known as fast radio bursts (FRBs) and unexplained fluctuations in starlight known as Tabby's Star. These anomalies raise questions about their origins and have led scientists to consider the possibility of extraterrestrial intelligence being involved.The Fermi Paradox: The Fermi Paradox poses the question: If there are numerous potentially habitable planets in the universe, why haven't we encountered any extraterrestrial civilizations? This paradox suggests that there may be factors at play that we are yet to understand. One possible explanation is that intelligent alien life exists but remains beyond our current technological capabilities to detect or communicate with.While these points offer compelling reasons to believe in the existence of aliens, it is important to approach the subject with scientific skepticism and an open mind. Further exploration, technological advancements, and scientific discoveries may eventually provide definitive answers to the question of extraterrestrial life.Now, with stunning new claims being brought by what is being called the most credible whistleblower in the sphere of UFO's to ever come forward is making shocking claims about Aliens and the technology that humans have reversed engineered from crash sites for decades.Do you believe?(commercial at 9:31)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Intelligence Officials Say U.S. Has Retrieved Craft of Non-Human Origin - The DebriefBecome a supporter of this podcast:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.Become a supporter of this podcast:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Rom 8:31-39 Today we consider the greatness of God's love for us. However, what makes this love so great? Certainly we can point to the fact that it is from God so that makes it great, but what really illuminates the love of God is recognizing just how sinful we are. Listen this week as we give thanks for our great Savior Jesus Christ.

Mauro Bergonzi taught ‘Indian Religion and Philosophy' from 1985 to 2017 at the University of Naples “L'Orientale”. About twenty years ago - after 25 years of meditative practices - a spontaneous fading out of his spiritual seeking just happened unexpectedly and only a radical non-dualism prevailed. From then on, he has been invited to hold regular meetings of ‘sharing of being' (satsang). A survey of Mauro's non-dual communication is available in his book Il sorriso segreto dell'essere (Mondadori) and in his website.E-mail: bergma@libero.it Some video talks from Mauro's Appearances at SAND Italy: The Bottomless Pit Behind the Word "Consciousness" The Utter Simplicity of What Is Rays of the Absolute a film by SAND Topics 00:00:00 – Introduction 00:12:41 – The Story of Mauro 00:34:15 – Types of Awakening 00:47:20 – Vastness and Meeting Nisargadatta Maharaj 00:58:08 – Accessing the Felt Sense of Emptiness 01:09:55 – Awareness of Awareness 01:16:47 – The feeling of “I Am”

Sadhguru is the 5th most influential global spiritual thought-leader, behind the Pope, the Dalai Lama, and Eckhart Tolle. Matt O'Neill spent a weekend learning from Sadhguru at his renowned program, Inner Engineering. This episode teaches the most important lessons he teaches about living a life of joy.  In this episode, learn how to live life with an open heart, create peace and love in the world, and tap into your highest potential. Learn how you can take responsibility for absolutely everything and become intensely involved in life. These principles are keys to unlocking good moods.  Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation:  Take responsibility for your thoughts and emotions Breaking free from the victim mentality Accept each moment as it is How to become intensely involved in life Unlock your heart through unconditional love Cultivate peace within to share joy and love with the world [05:47] Embracing Perspective: Our Place in the Vastness of the Cosmos One of the most negative thought patterns we can fall into is the victim mentality. When we view ourselves as victims, we believe that circumstances are out of our control, and we suffer as a result. However, the truth is that being a victim is a choice that we make with our perception. By taking responsibility for our lives and choosing to be in control, we can free ourselves from the suffering that comes with the victim mindset When we choose to take responsibility for everything in our lives, we empower ourselves to take action and improve our situations. We no longer feel helpless or at the mercy of external circumstances, and we can approach challenges with a proactive mindset. This shift in perspective allows us to move from victimhood to action and take steps toward creating positive change in our lives. [09:51] Breaking Free From the Victim Mentality The victim mentality is a negative thought pattern that disempowers us by making us believe that things are happening to us, beyond our control. This mentality perpetuates suffering as we blame external factors for our problems and feel harmed by others. However, being a victim is a choice we make with our perception. By taking responsibility for everything in our lives, we can break free from the victim mentality and create positive change. This shift in focus allows us to take control of our experiences, let go of suffering, and move towards a fulfilling life. Though it requires effort and self-awareness, choosing to be responsible empowers us to take action and pave the way for a brighter future. [14:46] Choosing to Respond Responsibility is about our ability to respond to situations in our lives. By taking responsibility for everything that happens, we empower ourselves to choose how we respond, even in the face of unfair or difficult circumstances. This means that true responsibility requires a willingness to respond to any situation that arises. When we limit our responsibility, we also limit our ability to take action and respond effectively. Therefore, embracing responsibility means embracing our ability to respond to whatever life throws our way. Notable quotes: [06:26] When you keep the fact that we are floating through empty space, on a ball of dirt, and that it's all happening, and you get to experience it... you start to see that this problem really is not a problem. [06:54] The more involved we are with what's going on in life consciously, the happier we get to be. [10:18] Every single time you are a victim of something, you are suffering.

Aliens, in the context of extraterrestrial life, have captivated human imagination for centuries. While conclusive proof of their existence has yet to be obtained, there are several compelling reasons to believe that aliens are real. Here is a summary of the key points supporting this notion:Vastness of the universe: The universe is unimaginably vast, with billions of galaxies, each containing billions of stars. It is statistically improbable that Earth is the only planet to harbor life among this vast cosmic expanse.

Aliens, in the context of extraterrestrial life, have captivated human imagination for centuries. While conclusive proof of their existence has yet to be obtained, there are several compelling reasons to believe that aliens are real. Here is a summary of the key points supporting this notion:Vastness of the universe: The universe is unimaginably vast, with billions of galaxies, each containing billions of stars. It is statistically improbable that Earth is the only planet to harbor life among this vast cosmic expanse. The sheer number of potentially habitable planets suggests that the existence of alien life is highly plausible.Exoplanet discoveries: In recent years, astronomers have made significant strides in discovering exoplanets—planets orbiting stars outside our solar system. Many of these exoplanets lie within the habitable zone, where conditions for liquid water and life as we know it are possible. The discovery of such planets further strengthens the case for potential extraterrestrial life.Extremophiles on Earth: Life on Earth has proven to be remarkably adaptable, with organisms known as extremophiles thriving in extreme environments previously thought to be inhospitable. These extremophiles, found in places like deep-sea hydrothermal vents and acidic hot springs, demonstrate that life can survive under harsh conditions. If life can endure such extremes on Earth, it raises the possibility of similar life forms existing elsewhere in the universe.UFO sightings and encounters: Throughout history, there have been numerous reports of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and encounters with alleged extraterrestrial beings. While many UFO sightings can be attributed to misinterpretations or hoaxes, some incidents remain unexplained, suggesting the presence of unidentified aerial phenomena. These encounters, coupled with credible testimonies from military personnel and pilots, provide intriguing evidence that something unexplained is happening.Astronomical anomalies: There have been instances where unexplained astronomical phenomena have been observed, such as unidentified signals from deep space known as fast radio bursts (FRBs) and unexplained fluctuations in starlight known as Tabby's Star. These anomalies raise questions about their origins and have led scientists to consider the possibility of extraterrestrial intelligence being involved.The Fermi Paradox: The Fermi Paradox poses the question: If there are numerous potentially habitable planets in the universe, why haven't we encountered any extraterrestrial civilizations?
