Crickets and Scorpions

I usually spend time in prayer at five a.m. each morning.

I shall relay a lesson that God taught me very dramatically
during one of those early morning sessions.

I pray in a closet that is actually the vocal booth of our
former home music studio. It is soundproof.

As I entered clad only in shorts, I heard the sound of a cricket
chirping. There in the shadow, I saw the cricket.
It was very close to where I sit on the floor each day.

"Sit down and don't bother the cricket,"
I heard a soft voice speak in my spirit.

I obeyed.

I turned out the light and sat in total darkness and silence.

I felt something crawl up on my leg.

"Don't bother the cricket," I heard the voice say again,
"I am trying to teach you something."

"You need to learn to distinguish the difference between
crickets and scorpions in life. Don't bother the cricket."

The cricket crawled. It is an eerie feeling to say the least.
I wasn't afraid of the cricket. I knew it couldn't harm me.
It wouldn't bite, sting, or even so much as scratch me.

It was just a highly annoying and extremely icky feeling.
A cricket crawling all over you.

I let the cricket crawl for almost a minute until I couldn't
stand it anymore. I brushed the cricket off, turned on the light,
picked it up in my hand, and took it outside and let it go.

I understood what God was trying to show me.
Life has scorpions and crickets.

Scorpions are the things that can hurt us; things that are truly
destructive and dangerous. Crickets are the things that have
absolutely no power to hurt us, they are just irritating.
They get on our nerves; they try our patience.

I saw things differently after emerging from prayer that day.

I realized that the vast majority of the things that really
irked me

...were crickets.

The vast majority of the things that irk you

...are crickets.

Don't bother the crickets
and don't let the crickets bother you.

You said it you prove it. I made no such claim.

Good! You didn't insist NT writers talked about such cruelties by coming churchmen. Otherwise, it would be another christianity deception fabricated by you as 'device' to deceive the unknowns. The NT writers are big fabricators, but they can't be that forseeing to write about the cruel devices used by coming churchmen. Why are you so gong to even ask me if the fabricating NT writers could have talked about the killing and torture devices used by churchmen? You are really dumbass gong cheebye!

The Superior Man

I am the inferior of any man whose rights I trample under foot.
Men are not superior by reason of the accidents of race or
color. They are superior who have the best heart, the best brain.
The superior man stands erect by bending above the fallen.
He rises by lifting others.
~Robert Green Ingersoll~

It's a question that you cannot answer, or won't answer, because you know it will just be demolished and you will be exposed as abysmally ignorant. What else?

Minding The Store


"My focus on the business will be limited during this time,"
I explained to my employees.

We sat around the conference table during our weekly meeting as
I explained the vision of MountainWings and the time that I needed
to spend to make it work.

I soon realized after starting MountainWings that MountainWings
would require a tremendous amount of time and resources, but I
also saw the awesome potential to help people worldwide.

I had to make a decision.

We all come to points in our lives where we have to make major
decisions. I couldn't focus on both business and MountainWings.

I only have just so much time and energy.

Not only do I have my own business, but I am executive vice
president of a family business, I am senior pastor of a church,
and I have a wife and three small boys, ages 7, 4, and almost 2,

...plus MountainWings.

Something had to give to make way for what MountainWings would
require. I chose my business as the thing I would sacrifice.

MountainWings has grown into the largest inspirational email in
the world. The testimonies that we receive daily of the lives
that MountainWings continues to change lets me know the decision
was the correct one but there is another side of the story.

My business.

We make natural health products (www.thewoman.com) that are sold
in health food stores nationwide. I am a preacher, but I am also
a scientist (a chemist by educational training). My father
exposed me at an early age to the wisdom of natural living.

My father took me to health seminars and at the age of 17,
I became as I am now, mostly vegetarian with occasional kosher
fish and extremely health conscious.
From what is written it is the way Jesus ate.

The way that you think, eat, and live influences the inside
and sooner or later it shows on the outside.

My business reflects my passion to keep people healthy just as
MountainWings reflects the passion to raise the spirit.

When I took my focus from business to MountainWings, I expected
the business to suffer. It was only natural that it would
decline with the president concentrating on another project.

The health food industry suffered with stores going out of
business and manufactures going bankrupt or downsizing.
We saw our competitors fall by the wayside.

This year was the best year in the fifteen years of my company.
Each quarter of the year broke records and this quarter will be
our best quarter ever.

Our flagship product is Miracle 2000(R). It is a liquid full
spectrum multi-vitamin sold in health food stores nationwide.

The sales of Miracle 2000 kept climbing. The testimonies about
Miracle 2000 are as serious as the MountainWings testimonies.

I had to wonder and reflect on why had business increased so
dramatically when my focus was in another direction?

Perhaps while I was seeing about God's business,


...He was seeing about mine.

The Wave


When I was a radio DJ, I would return home about the same time
every day along the same route.

One day I passed a van going in the other direction that I
assumed was my mother (same hair style, same make of van) and
automatically lifted my hand in greeting.

Only when I got beside the van did I realize my mistake.
I didn't know the elderly lady driving this particular vehicle.
I felt a little foolish, but not as foolish as I felt when I
made the same mistake the next day and the day after!

Waving hello to my mother was just so automatic that I waved
before realizing my mistake!

I determined not to make the same mistake the next day, and sure
enough, there she was at approximately the same location coming
at me. I kept my hand firmly on the steering wheel when
something odd happened - she waved to me!

Of course I waved back, neither of us having a clue who the
other one was.

This went on for weeks. We would see each other at about the
same spot and wave to each other every day. One day she wasn't
there, and I worried that she was sick, or hospitalized, or
worse, but had no way to find out.

I never saw her again. I think of her often, and I smile when I
think that two strangers made friends
through a simple mistaken wave,
and each of us had something to look forward to
at the end of the day.
