Words of Wisdom | The False Self

An excerpt from Morgan Snyder’s book “Becoming a King:” “The context of the journey of deliverance from the false self and restoration of the true self is unique, but the process is universal. It begins with awareness. The first step to becoming true is becoming aware of the false. Who am I in my falseContinue reading “Words of Wisdom | The False Self”

Mirror Mirror | The Walking Dead

Introspection — what better way to start a week. I had a dream last night. There was a mother and her two small boys. I walked up to them and the boys were swimming in a large pool. Their mother was floating face down in the water. Startled, I asked the boys what was goingContinue reading “Mirror Mirror | The Walking Dead”

Words of Wisdom | Vindicate Me

King David is my favorite author of the Old Testament. He was a man that was real, honest, and raw with God.

I would be surefooted in one moment about my path forward with the truth. AsContinue reading “Mirror Mirror | Stammering”

All childhood sexual crimes fall under this category. It is a genocide on the human race – so it is indeed a racial crime. WhyContinue reading “Words of Wisdom | Genocide”

Mirror Mirror | Imagination

Introspection — what better way to start a week. Looking back on my childhood, I had small bouts of imagination. I didn’t have time to dream. But, on occasion, I did. Puff, the Magic Dragon (by Peter, Paul & Mary 1963) Puff, the magic dragon lived by the seaAnd frolicked in the autumn mist inContinue reading “Mirror Mirror | Imagination”

Words of Wisdom | Living with a Parasite

There are worms that won’t harm you if you swallow them, but there are worms that can be extremely harmful. Incestuous relationships are like eating harmful worms and having them live inside you wreaking havoc. They create a system of shame and disappointment. Trustworthiness is no where to be found in these caverns created byContinue reading “Words of Wisdom | Living with a Parasite”
