117.03 God’s Love and Mercy to all People

117.03 SEEL - Day #2. To liberate people to love and serve GOD and others!

This is where I come in. I'm not really sure why this week started with all the desolation stuff. I've noticed how I really do not take death seriously either. I know how evil and death are really about being separated from Jesus and God. So these aspects are simply not my experience or not real for me. .

I guess I am familiar with each, and seemingly understand them at a different level. Or I guess I simply understand them as separate from the truth and love of God. So now in this lesson to consider an imagine of thine beauty God and all creation, is really easy for me.

Now again doing the Prayerline, and this call interrupts my sentence, only to be a dropped line. Yes, Jesus Likes my focus on just Him. Hoe The Lord chooses me to step into doing more. And I stop to ACT, but then stop to Pray . . . Dear Jesus How best may I act to honor and glorify GOD!

How best can I spread God’s Love and Mercy to all People

Page 172 speaking more of understanding how we each have  skills to serve . . . And it’s Thanksgiving where I’m cooking and preparing food to share . . . . no sure if it’s all comfort foods, or acceptable to everyone. Nor have I invited anyone focused and clear.

It’s how I’m killing myself and everyone around me…. Self-saboteur . . . So worried about my to-do lists.s.s.s, as a crisis creator, or a whiner, or critic, always complaining. . . Yes Family Focus comes in where the deal-breaker shows up, same patterns showing up, where I never show-up.  Someone who is always disrespectful. . . Patterns of abuse, emotional and racial slurs are not acceptable. . .

Wow, I guess I know why I’ve been alone! Knowing all that God has done revealing this to me. Caring Christian Counseling Team. . .”overwhelmed” book now 800-232-6459 800-afamily. . . With Focus On Family, theJoyFM.

Knowing the opposition to riches, honor, and pride, while simultaneously living at odds with each. I've seemingly always had riches, though I've never been in need of anything or seemingly always have been printed for. Though never in excess. But I wonder about honor or pride sometimes as a seem to seek or gloat over any recognition for services I do . . . 

Maybe even seeking recognition in doing some services. . . I guess this brings me to explore Day 3 Consider: How do I experience the two standards playing out in my life or in the world around me? This Brings me back to my main point here, the desolation standard is essentially avoided completely, while the consolation blessings of Christ Jesus are the status quo I seek to share and become more clearly every day.

What role do riches and honors play in my life? I just noted how riches are irrelevant, where I always have all I need and rarely seem very concerned about them. What enslaves me? Is a challenging question. I seem to always be “seeking,” really almost anxious to understand more deeply. Like the Overwhelmed book discussed earlier, they were speaking of the holidays, describing my own scenario with patterns of abuse or neglect, where it was clear I did not belong. I’ve only recently realized the truth coming from “racial slurs,” making me the outcast, irregardless to anything I might do. And sadly I recall my brothers and sister habitually taking money from my mom’s purse. Course, she would always have hundreds in small bills, and intentionally leave her purse lying around. So the arrogance and pride in the riches was obvious in everyone there . . . . Course I prided myself in always having cash myself, though i know many times it was from buying or selling something illegal!

Where is the invitation to greater freedom in my life? Now brings me to a serious Conclusion where I need to engage a triple colloquy prayer, which underscores how serious and sometimes difficult it is to step more strongly into the grace we ask for as a gift to have Love and Mercy for all People . . . Hum, invite Mary to lead me to Jesus and then to God …. In conversation . . . lol, feels like it’s time for my new “Why Statement”

Why I give thanks and praise to Jesus Christ as the HEART, Hands and Feet of God!!!

117.02 glory of God is a human person fully alive

Reflecting God the Father's power at work in the world is giving glory to God, for God's glory is precisely his infinite wisdom and power made manifest in concrete worldly events. This is the service that we are called to give to God: to make manifest the work that the Father is doing in the created world.

We pray to make manifest in life all that GOD.. could want or imagine. What a wonderful goal and purpose in life. To actively seek to bring into our immediate experience more love and joy that only Jesus could understand and share with us.

This book by Joseph mentioned here is wonderful: Here is the Christian's deepest identity: we are to BE reflections, however fitful and fragmentary, of God's work as He evolves all things under Christ the Head. This is why, in the familiar words, the glory of God is a human person fully alive.

Doing what God wants done, in the name of Jesus Christ, for all the world to see . . . . Like reminding Mary and Wanda what it means to be truly alive and connected to God's love and Spirit we find all around us. . . . Wow: Acknowledgment, approval, and then thanks: the holy way of the creature in the Creator's hands.

Now more focused on SEEL Week #17: the two standards. . . And as strange as it may sound, the last page I wrote was detailing the experience of beating satan in one moment and then healing and loving someone in the very next.

My work today, and always never really accept or acknowledges satan. I know his works and desires, equally recognizing how desperate he tries to interfere with me and distract me from all that god brings to me.  But satan is NOT LOVE, so really is Not anything, not life, not God, Not worth my time, thought, effort, nothing!

I am generous with my wealth, giving time, talents and treasures to friends, neighbors and complete strangers as I am able. My wealth and possessions really are used to inspire and support this ministry and education that I provide to my neighbors. . . I Find what I have defines how I can share and serve others. 

I had to fix my pump so I could water and expand my gardens. I have to redo everything for the city code enforcement board meeting next month where I’m listed for Urban Agriculture violations again. And then I also need to fix my fence and get everything cleaned up for the homeowners insurance company that has pictures of the hurricane damage I’ve not fixed yet.

The high-point was when could get the broken nipple out of the pump. I asked Steve Nextdoor if he had any ideas and he came over and helped me get it out. It was so great to get the love and support from my neighbor with a random weekend challenge. I gave them a much of the purple sweet potatoes I’ve found around. The next day and this morning again the water was running over everything again! YEAY!!!

I’m really not one to imagine satan in anything. But instead ask Saint Joseph to guide me outside. I never put anything towards satan to even acknowledge the challenges that he might bring me, and I refuse to even capitalize his name, which this app tries to do every time I type it.

Yes I know who satan is, and have confronted and dealt with him forever. It’s kinda sad too, as I realized how he still tries to get pretty women in front of me to distract me and pull me away from all that I know and do.

Similarly in Mass today: JESUS delivered us from the power of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins (2nd reading today Colossians 1:13)

That’s where I belong, so to imagine the opposite even as an exercise is creating a crack in the doorway to allow something I consider useless and wasteful. Recognizing what is really means that it’s nothing at all. There is only Love and there is Only Jesus, all these rest is really where Jesus is not. Thus, equally I stay in Jesus and Love and have made such a effort there to step away is not possible.

And I guess the confrontation is as close as I get. And I realized I could perceive and understand the evil, the not Jesus, the not. . . Which I perceived in detail. . . Yes almost at the end of this post where the paragraph starts: “As crazy as it might be“

And still this section in SEEL wants us to recognize and acknowledge evil!?! Just not my cup of tea, the very last line speaks of imagining something in the current times, while the fight is ongoing so adding any word or comment is counterproductive.

Yes that previous link shares the experiences I see. . And it’s interesting to see deeper into those circumstances.  I mean, that one experience carried over for weeks, as I know what it means to allow evil to impact children. 

As crazy as it seems, I still never have helped my own children resolve their own similar encounters.  Emily said I was right on target the first time we met in Starbucks 12/24/20– ?? I think it was 2010? Since she left at age ten, 2000, and was gone for ten years.

Funny when I met her husband the first time, he admitted he was in Starbucks too. And then also stated he knew about her step-dad and would keep her safe away from him. Course they got the guy some drugs toe keep him stable, but the crazy perversion with children is still there. 

Oh wow, I realize now as I write, that I saw her step-dad at my son’s wedding last month. Only one picture, and that was enough. It was clean the villain was there hiding in the eyes. . . Eeeek, it’s weird how I can see it from one picture.  Or I guess one clean shot of someone’s eyes. . . Like I witnessed at the exodus meeting.

What do these words mean for me now?

What you are recognizing is how much your own family might be destined to address these issues a lot deeper than you know. You have seen the porn in your city and neighborhoods. You have witnessed and participated before. And you know this poison is more intense in the Bay Area.

I get it. . . Like the Word experience. With all the technology that is here beyond and above anything we can find anywhere else.

What you know deep inside is going to kill them.

I got this Word before. . . I mean, I’ve always said satan was dead to me already.  But clearly I know and find him very easily and often in places that I wouldn’t look or consider.

We still protect you. That image of Saint Michael spinning His Sward and Shield around you is still very clear and present in your consciousness.  you’ve seen trees trimmed and doors opened, teasing everyone about how you could walk through walls. . . And then at the Vinoy seeing how real that was still in your experiences. 

I get it, Your Word is still very powerful and PRESENT all around me. . . Thank You Dear Lord Jesus Christ, I Love You Dear Lord Jesus Christ . . .

What about this definition you found using the last words before Day 2?

As far as I’m concerned I never allow affective and emotional reactions are essentially the same thing: a person's immediate, visceral response to a stimulus, involving feelings, physiological changes, and behavioral expressions like facial expressions and actions.  lol, ok that’s not right, I always respond and always avoid evil. I’m just very familiar with satanic games and stay away and don’t play!

117.01 always in gods presence

ok more to do. THANK YOU JESUS. I love how my iPads work and the iphone and everything just clicks together and works great. I just love it all. 

This is a trip!

I recognize how much Jesus has done for me. Each day I see more and more of His Grace and Blessings everywhere. Today I saw Mary coughing again and struggling to breathe in Church. I knew I had to take her outside and get her shoes off to share with me. And then to my surprise she walks over to speak with me. . . About saving her wine for consecration!

It surprised me, so I missed the opportunity for my inspiration. But after mass, and after the men's prayers, as I was leaving she walked up looking for Fr Curtis, and I was able to chat with her a bit. Yes, I was able to hug her and hold her for a bit, explaining about our heart energy connecting to all life. I was able to share with her talking about our heart energy entwining before bringing her to the tree and getting her grounded. She told me she had a real tree at home and understood my images that I gave her of the magnetic flux lines to visualize. . . She really had such a big smile on her face, explaining all her ailments as we talked.

Wow, I guess I really knew what it was all about. And I was able to tell Wanda what we did. Wanda said her back and everything were still really feeling great. It’s really clear to me how I need to get more focused on my healing others and accept that is something that I need to be doing more. I guess this is in line with the mystic lessons I’ve been addressing here with SEEL, discernment is really ground zero.

Like with Mary, I was clear about what the task was before me. And I understood and was ready to approach her. I never had any question about who was sending me the message. And to read this section about consolation and desolation and recognize how obvious it is never to change plans during desolation.  But I know I never really tolerate anything from satan. It’s like confronting him in the Exodus meeting, he couldn’t even respond to me. I really have had that experience a lot, where it’s very clear that someone is avoiding me or knows something about me to stay away. Now the next page in SEEL:

God is faithful and remains with us; however, the good feelings of spiritual consolation are gone for the time while we remain faithful in difficult times, we come to understand that faith involves more than feeling good; faith has to do with steadfast commitment, which deepens our friendship with God.

Like the Highlight at right is really great. Making sure we are focused and keep our own work in order and never allowing interference. It’s really funny almost. I’m always in Prayer, I really have this ongoing conversation, as Jesus and the Saints really want to help and guide me all the time. I’ve been challenged a few times, but I see and feel His grace and glory in everything all around me.  All existence is God, all is Love! Like the fundamental energy, creating all matter and everything else it’s just love. The more we understand and grow into this, the more we gain independence and that’s how we end up lost. Independence usually brings pride and control, Keeping it all in Jesus is a trick!

Like working outside today I knew Saint Joseph was ready to help me. And He was so delighted when I stopped and asked for directions about what I was doing. Asking for his guidance with tools and work always brings him joy!

Desolation inspires patience and perseverance as we just hang in there knowing everything comes around making things stronger and better. It’s just the way of things, as love grows with more faith and more perseverance trusting that the love and friendship in Jesus goes on forever. 

Reading this page now, I found a book by Mark and read about In the Examen, we review our recent past to find God and God’s blessings in daily life. We also look back to find moments in the day when

things didn’t go so well—when we were hurt by something that happened to us, or when we sinned or made a mistake.

Which really means, just losing touch and not listening to the immediate guidance. As he said also how spending all the day with Jesus is really ideal. Making the time, and stopping to listen and accept and understand the guidance as it’s really always available and always around us can really be very easy with Love and Trust!

116.02 in the Image of God, as the time to take authority

Oh wow, moving deeper into this session now. 116.02 DAY 3 Mark 1:21-39. Join Jesus on a busy day.. and I read this and mark up what jumps out for me. . .

Now again this is pressing me to step into more than I’ve ever known, or really ever fully recognized and understood. Though I seem to have done or lived such mysteries all my life. I had another powerful Prayerline experience where these same highlighted ideas came through very strongly. It was a lady who had called before. And she told her story from the start and complained about her brother exploiting her and all the challenges that pressed against her while she was actually doing holy missionary work successfully. 

We all get frustrated when we do something good, and get stomped on anyway by the greedy and arrogant who get jealous. I said a prayer for her and then she recognized me. She said it’s been months since we spoke, but she knew it, asking for my name again. “Yes Rafi, I remember you”. . . 

Now after we had prayed, I told her it was time for her to step into something more. Not just walking outside and reconnecting to the Love and Truth of God that we can find in the Woods, and Trees, and Beauty all around us. I told her she was made in the Image of God. It was time for her to take authority. I asked her to repeat after me. . . Whenever you can stop and NAME the evil attacking her . . . Just Say the Words: “I Renounce this “named” evil spirit in the Name of Jesus Christ; I command this “named” evil spirit to leave me in the Name of Jesus Christ!”

I told her that the specific, anxiety, anger, depression, and deceptions up against her, can be dismissed by this power of Jesus. Wow, I am back again into the Mysteries of God, where each evil is dismissed and dispelled by the Grace and Love of Jesus Christ. It’s all about Jesus, and the Power of His Love beating the evils of this world, again and again. . . 

DAY 4 is to repeat this passage above again. . . so I selected the Bible verse at the top of this page and hit the menu link to “search with google” and found the verse from a different version copied here at right. The first was KJV, and now it’s NIV . . . So this time I felt how Jesus was preventing the demons from speaking since “they knew Him already” as stated in Mark 1:24 as the Holy One of God.

Recognizing again now how important it is to know why we have come and also how it's equally important to remain anonymous. This Really feels like a strong lesson for me, where No one needs to know my WHY except me. I guess, I've not defined it all enough anyway. But I do see how the Mysteries of God are coming through TO ME and knowing and accepting this is only half the challenge! I now must be silent, and keep these mysteries and experiences to myself.

WOW, the challenges never cease. . . Day 5 now with Mark 2:1-12 Jesus immediately knowing his authority. So I guess my lesson now is accepting and understanding what all this means when I put it all together. Like leading and teaching in a dream that has come full circle again.

I guess, the next step for me is coming in closer to how my whole world and life is shifting again! Day 6 is about resting and endearing into this New place of Being with Jesus and what that really means. Then Day 7 is repeating this.

Of course, I've gone back and reread all my notes and experiences with the week lessons of 115 and 116. There is a lot of synergy and resonance between these and the other events in my life. Like I literally just replied to a professional engineering request for Building a new resort in the multimillion ranges . . . With the salary and benefits package to match . . . The distractions never cease.

116.01 Mysteries of God’s Dreams in 3I- implementing the intense intimacy and intelligence!

Starting the prayerline now. My first call was some guy who called before and was never outside. It was interesting as after our prayers, I asked him about the outdoors, and he was so grateful to realize that he really loved it outside and was trapped in the concrete box, never seeing the sun, the trees, or anything outside at all.  Yes the Beauty of Nature is FILLED with God and God’s Love is everywhere.

Ok now SEEL WEEK #16 The Grace Requested: “To know HIM more intimately” Love him more dearly follow him more closely in order to know Jesus we must take this Humanity seriously!!!

Recognizing it is now my time and place to do everything I’ve been designed to do. It's really kinda neat as I see and experience more and more in the Love of Dear Lord Jesus Christ!  And I'm totally perplexed at times, for how this world will continue for me, giving me the opportunity and experience of writing and learning more and more each week. Where I found more notes in SEEL listening to our first meeting again.  It goes back to our first trying to Learn about my new WHY STATEMENT and then I found this note to slow down and appreciate this savored relationship with God (see pic copied here below)!  

And I know My ultimate desire is to lineup and fulfill the passions and love relationship in Christ Jesus through His Mystical Works. As I’ve dreamed about restoring the Garden of Eden and here I am teaching Sustainability and Entrepreneurship (again), which often engages students exploring new business ideas for sharing healthy organic foods and methods.  This beauty of my experience abounds!

And I know this experience morphs into a completely new world as I never know exactly what could be next, and I simply show up and move forward. . . . 

11/6/2025 today I started before dawn with the JoyFM podcasts, Exodus, and my exercises before racing to Clearwater to do a Career Day for local high school kids. It was kinda odd, and my first attempt at this. But I followed and did what I needed. I figured I would stay and do my class next. So now I’ve got some free time to read and review this SEEL work before my class.

My very first lesson is asking for this Grace of God to know Jesus more intimately, to love him more intensely, and to follow him more closely, which then begins with Day #1 Matthew 4:1-11. Yes, I relate and understand about Jesus dealing with the devil and being challenged after fasting. I’ve been fasting more myself. I’ve really been set into a more normal schedule of doing every-other-day of the Prayerline and all the rest that I do. It really wasn’t a challenge, but just something I needed to get more focused and set for creating more regular habits for myself . . . . Like the teaching, grading, and yard work or gardening. . . . Mangroves and more too.

When I think about this piece in SEEL and what I need to learn from this. The phrases that jumped out at me, were the words that would bring me back to God. 

. . .Now again I have such a wonderful experience in communion with Jesus. Yes, Now!

Now again feeling and knowing all things come from God and all things are of God and filled with his glory and TRUTH. This again reminds me of the Holy Spirit from the Wilderness or the boy from the Woods who hear's and knows God’s Words coming to me from all life, trees, grass, birds or bugs, songs, podcasts, emails, and everything I Receive is of God.  Asking Christ for His Wisdom and deepest meaning and intention in this intimacy we shared in integrity and implementation. 

Which brings me to service  DOING THE MYSTICAL WORKS OF CHRIST . . .  Which is now aligned with the Exodus going now too: “To render an account of our works.” Learning from my emotional errors and finding deeper truth and passion in growth to share and understand the Mysteries of God’s Dreams.

Wow, yes it’s about love and the Glory of God in Father, Son and Holy Ghosts . . . . And I guess what’s really important and significant for me now is recognizing how Jesus really beat satan, and died on the cross as the sacrifice for my sins . . . . Which really means that NOW more than ever, Hebrews 4:14-16: I can Step into God’s Mercy to Confidently Serve my neighbors and His People for His Glory through these Mysteries of God’s Dreams.

And it’s really important that I remain confident and secure in all that He’s given to me and all that is before me! As I recognize the sacrifice Jesus made, removes my sins to get closer and more intimate with God!

I stopped to reread all these passages from the SEEL book and the Bible with SEEL Day #1 Matthew 4:1-11 and Hebrews 4:14-16, and as incredible as it may seem these screenshots gave me lots of space to write and share my deeper experiences that I’ve had in this study.

As with exploring my WHY Statement where I realize it’s more important than ever to step deeper into my work and place. . . . And what is my work?  And what is my place? Is it more about some Mystical Dream I’ve seen glimpses of. So now I read my next SEEL Day #2 Luke 4:14-30 . . . . What really has God sent me to do and how can I possibly step into something new?

And now I notice what phrases jump out to me from this Bible verse and I'm more intimidated and terrified than ever. Yes it certainly is about the Power of the Spirit as the Lord IS upon me, anointed me and sent me to this time and space to be rising up from midst of the waters, to implement the Mysteries of God’s Dreams.

Course I know intimately, how much my family and home rejected me, no mater what I did or said. Feeling this deeper connnection to Jesus, who was stuggling to reach those He loves from his own home and community. Wow, and I was raised in this vibration, where I was always rejected by everyone. And seeing the reference to the midst of the waters, where I've worked all my life is always a blessing . . . Which feels like I’ve finally learned to step beyond this rejection, fear, and insecurity. 

However, stepping into the mystic and mysteries I found from week #15… means implementing the intense intimacy and intelligent Mysteries of God’s Dreams.
