Is Prayer the only thing needed to fill our Lives with Purpose? According to Henri Nouwen, “Reading Scripture while anticipating insight is powerful. But Listening to Yahweh’s voice takes Time; silent meditation is priceless and Spiritual-Forerunners help Discern what is Truth and what is Tainted by this world.”[1] Contemplate a New-Time filled with Mercy from Christ and Hope from Heaven where Angels and Saints assemble in Glory-to-God.

Starting today there are 364 days in which to petition religious and none-religious communities to Act-Holy, Observe-Grace, and Refrain themselves from Evil. Jesus is the Christian example through which the Holy-Spirit sends Light through Darkness. Other Prophets taught Truth and Lived in accordance to God’s will; they foretold of a coming Messiah, a King whose Spiritual-Advice and ensuing Suffering would Save-Lives. Welcome to His Communal-Insights traversing the World for Restoration-of-Faith.

“At noon darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon.  And at three o’clock Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which is translated, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Some of the bystanders who heard it said, “Look, he is calling Elijah.” One of them ran, soaked a sponge with wine, put it on a reed, and gave it to him to drink, saying, “Wait, let us see if Elijah comes to take him down.” Jesus gave a loud cry and breathed his last. The veil of the sanctuary was torn in two from top to bottom.

When the centurion who stood facing him saw how he breathed his last he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!” There were also women looking on from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of the younger James and of Joses, and Salome. These women had followed him when he was in Galilee and ministered to him. There were also many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem.” (Mark 15:33-41 NABRE)

Here on earth an occasional Thief, Addict, or Fiend of some sort will try to undo what God has set forth. In fact, Anguish makes ends meet when the Vail-of-Truth is lifted and Freedom begins. My God and Your God knows suffering; He came down from Heaven to experience Sorrow before conquering Death by Forgiving those who Know not What they Do.
