The Healing Power of Jesus Christ - Sculptures by Angela Johnson

Jesus Christ is the greatest Being to be born on this earth--the perfect example--and all religious things should be done in his name. He is Lord of lords, King of kings, the Creator, the Savior, the God of the whole earth, the Captain of our salvation, the Bright and Morning Star. He is in all things, above all things, through all things, and round about all things; he is Alpha and Omega, the first and the last; his name is above every name, and is the only name under heaven by which we can be saved.

He will come again in power and glory to dwell on the earth, and will stand as Judge of all mankind at the last day.

Sculptor, Angela Johnson is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Her
lifelong love and adoration of Jesus Christ is the guiding power of her life. Angela and her husband
Kenneth have four children and ten grandchildren. She is the Director of the I Am the Light
of the World Foundation, a nonprofit that has been organized to create a sculpture garden
depicting the teachings and miracles of Jesus Christ.

When once asked by a newspaper editor if she looks at her hands and is amazed at
what she has been able to accomplish she replied, "It is more amazing to me what Jesus
Christ can do with a soul."

The Call - Let The Day Begin

Al Gore used "Let The Day Begin" as his campaign song in the 2000 U.S. Presidential Election and Tom Vilsack used it as his song during his brief 2008 U.S. Presidential Election campaign. The Call 's 1989 release became the band's biggest crossover hit. With its insistent bassline and driving guitars, "Let the Day Begin" was a rousing track that was a memorable introduction to the band's fifth album. The album consists of some of The Call 's strongest material and the undercurrent of optimism and big arena rock hooks results in it being their best bid for wider success.

Not mention it has become something of a "Morning Prayer" to me over the years. Enjoy.

Infinite Power of Hope

Dieter F. Uchtdorf, an apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ, shares how hope encourages and inspires us to place our trust in the loving care of our Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ.

How To Receive Healing From Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ is alive and healing people today and performing many miracles. How do we receive healing from Jesus? Listen to the video for the answer.

+++

Yes, Jesus was a man. Where I have a question is how can we accept him as "God" if we cannot accept ourselves as divine? IOW, according to the bible, we too are the children of God and it does not yet appear what we shall be - but at his appearing we shall see him, for we shall see him as he is (1John 3:2).

Additionally, he is made like unto us in every way (Deut 18:15,18; Acts 3:22, 7:37; Hebrews 2:17) dear readers, since this is true, are we not also divine? Made in the image and likeness of God. What does every way mean if not "exactly like us"?

For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. (Acts 17:28,29)

Claim your birthright! Know who YOU ARE!

Lifting Burdens: The Atonement of Jesus Christ

Apostles of Jesus Christ testify of the Saviors power to heal, change, and purify us through His Atonement.

Witness & testimony in the video above come from members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Members of the LDS church built a settlement not far from where I call home. I have visited and photographed their graveyard and meeting hall site in Amboy, IL. Admittedly, I do not know much about their beliefs. I have only met one Mormon in my life and he was stationed with me during our time in USAF basic military training back in 1989. What I do recall about Caleb was his "holy underware" which I was detailed to launder, and his unwavering faith in doing that which is right in the sight of God and for the honor and service of the United States.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has been brutally oppressed in this country over the years, yet, from my brief encounter with one of their members, I can write of no finer example of a man dedicated to selfless sacrifice and heartfelt dedication to the principles of freedom, justice, and the healing power of Christ's love within the souls of all who call upon His Name.

The International Order of Saint Luke the Physician does not discriminate upon any denomination, nor does the World Community for Christian Meditation . It is my prayer that visitors to this blog will respect those of Our Lord's pasture who may be outside the gates of their own sheepfold. We must remember that Christ died for all and that "all good things belong to us" as members of his body regardless of labels or man-made, or self-imposed barriers.

It is only by total self surrender that we come to at-one-ment with Our heavenly Father and this through the example of our elder brother in the faith, Jesus Christ, and in the unity of the Holy Spirit for which he prayed would be our inheritance.

May we not disappoint is my humble prayer.

Christ heals the blind man of Bethsaida (Mark 8,22-26)

Healing of the blind man by Jesus speaks to me on several levels. Not the least of which is the metaphysical level; blindness often is equated with "not understanding". Whereas light has long been understood to be an "A-ha!" moment; an epiphany.

Knowing in the Biblical sense is an enlightenment, an intimate, even sexual gnosis of the beloved. When Christ heals the blind man, as he heals us, we too are brought into a clear vision of the Kingdom of God. We are made new; and this means (in so many passages) a virgin. In other words, a pure bride of Christ.

While this may or may not be instantaneous - there is an ever present progression; a 'glory to glory' : 'strength to strength' movement in the journey that is our lives. We are found in the mire of our sins, we are called to return home. It is at home where we know ourselves to be whole, accepted, loved, and able to show love. It is at home that we KNOW ourselves to be reconciled.

Many years ago, I had a spiritual director who told me that he believed that heaven would be like a continuous mulitple orgasm of pure rapture. I laughed when he told me of his belief. Now, after my own progression, I cannot dismiss his words so readily.

My blindness, and that of saint Paul who had "scales removed from his eyes" that we might see more than what lies beyond this dark veil trust in the healing, regenerative, reconciliatory, all pervasive power of Christ's power and virtue to make us whole - to lead us home and truly give us blind ones, eyes to see and ears to hear.

Placing Our Hands On The Sick

The Guardian - Ending Clip

I had the distinct honor of having watched the movie, "The Guardian" starring Kevin Costner and Ashton Kutcher on Veteran's Day. It tells the story of the United States Coast Guard's elite rescue swimmers.

As a former U.S. Air Force medic, it seems to me that the USCG are the military's forgotten heros; undoubtedly remembered by those whom they have searched for and rescued, but largely operating unnoticed under the banner of Homeland Security. I admit, I cried while watching this movie. The message of self sacrifice for a total stranger, and being a "fisher of men" was not lost on me.

I pray for the day when there will be no more war and the casualties, wounds, death and destruction inflicted by humans upon other humans made in the image and likeness of God. Until that day comes, I honor those who give of themselves every day, so that others may live.

These things we do so that others may live

My alma mater...God bless you! "That Others May Live"

You Never Let Go - song by Matt Redman

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won't turn back
I know You are near

And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?

*** Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We'll live to know You here on the earth

Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You

Never Let Go by Bryan Adams - a tribute to the troops

Can you lay your life down, so a stranger can live?
Can you take what you need, but take less than you give?
Could you close every day, without the glory and fame?
Could you hold your head high, when no one knows your name?
That's how legends are made, at least that's what they say.

We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, cause you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

Can you lose everything, you ever had planned?
Can you sit down again, and play another hand?
Could you risk everything, for the chance of being alone?
Under pressure find the grace, or would you come undone?
That's how legends are made, at least that's what they say?

We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, cause you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

Never let go, Never let go, Never let go

Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, 'but you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

Never let go, Never let go, Never let go

walkie-talkie, some military humor on Veteran's Day

Because laughter is the best medicine...God bless our troops, and all those who serve our nation so that we may enjoy what remains of freedom in this world.
