Feels...

 



Still think that was a joke?




Look hard, you'll see it.



The "caves"?
They are carved out of sandstone.
Its a monastery.




See the ladders?



"The almost inaccessible 
Dabba Selama monastery 
( 13°41.67′N 39°6.03′E) 
is assumed to be t
he first monastery established in Ethiopia, 
by Saint Frumentius. 
(Died c 383).

The intrepid visitor will climb down, 
then scramble over narrow ledges along precipices, 
and finally climb an overhanging cliff."

These were started being built
(carved)/constructed
while Frumentius was still alive.



Point is?
Ethiopian Christianity
pre-dates
Roman Catholicism.

IT DEVELOPPED 
COMPLETELY OUTSIDE OF IT.

(As did others 
you never hear about, 
ever wonder why?)

When the Europeans 
came to Ethiopia?

They already had Christianity.





a while back make any more sense 
to you these days?








AMEN!




Yup...




All the logical arguments
and all the evidence in the world 
will not do it.

Only the power 
of the Holy Spirit
can convince you.

Im just trying to point out
(In my own way)
that it is logical
to believe in a creator
and that 
there is 
an abundance 
of evidence
(more so than ever before).

The cosmologist and 
the evolutionary molecular biologist
know it, so I figure you should too.

You might want to
entertain the though of
"Why is that exactly?"

Your mind 
already knows 
the answer
that your brain 
doesn't want 
to admit 
to your heart.

Trust me it does.



Yeah...read that again.




ring is on his finger.

(Follow the link 
and 
Stop with the nonsense 
already,
he was.)



That record turned 40 
the other day.

I had the original 
with the three glaring mistakes 
in the liner notes. 

(The Wikipedia entry 
doesn't even mention them)

I wish I would have kept it now.

And this was not
my first record 
of his.

That was



 for all you:

"You're just a white boy poser 
living in the suburbs "

types.

I heard the live version 
of Jammin 



off that record 
when I was a junior 
in high school 
(81)
at a local head shop. 





that used to be located 
(No longer there 
for a long time now)
right next door 
to where I used to work



(Shakes, malts, Sundays, Cones
Banana splits, you name it)

in Plainview,  
a neighborhood 
in J-town, 
East Jefferson County 
(Louisville KY 
for all practical purposes.)

Our backdoors shared 
the same Dumpster pad
lol.

I kid you not.

Needless to say?
I got to be friends 
with the manager 
of the Wildberry lol.

Go figure lol.
I know
hard to believe etc.

I was already 
"indulging" 
lets say :-),
well  before that.

All that is a Coincidence?
Thats a Lil hard for me to buy into.
Especially these days.








For some friends of mine :-).




AMEN!




He is your offering.
He gave himself up for you.






YUP...

Not many anyway...




WHAT ARE YOU WAITING ON EXACTLY?




Which one are you?
If you are one that is.




The God Of 
ENDURANCE...

AMEN!




Smaller circle.
Tighter bonds.

Great advice BTW.

I love you baby.
TTYS honey.
