rich in fruits and harvest
ASKED AND ANSWERED - by Joseph Talushkin & Dennis Prager
"How did America, a nation composed largely of the rejected of other societies, become the most afluent, freest, the most influenctial society in the world?"
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall standA mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her nameMother of Exiles. From her beacon-handGlows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command. The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame."Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries sheWith silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,The wretched refuse of your teeming shores. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
Emma Lazarus, 1883 - inscribed on the base of the Statue of Liberty
This is the resting place,
let the weary Rest
this is the place of repose
Is 28:12
HE WHO TRUSTS NEED NOT FEAR
Is 28:16
You shall triumph by stillness and quiet
your victory shall come about through calm and confidence
Is 30:15
free to do what you want any old time
LOVE
love me true
LOVE
have stranger things ever happened
i don't know
but who could have thought it ?
Sing, O heavens, for the LORD has done it
Is 44: 23-24

They shall not hunger nor thirst, neither shall the heat nor sun smite them; for He that hath compassion on them will lead them, He even by the springs of water will guide them.
11
And I will make all My mountains a way, and My highways shall be raised on high.
12
Behold, these shall come from far; and, lo, these from the north and from the west, and these from the land of Sinim.
13
Sing, O heavens, and be joyful, O earth, and break forth into singing, O mountains; for HaShem hath comforted His people, and hath compassion upon His afflicted.
Isaiah 49:10

siempre he tenido un mensage para ti que tu sabes

Eleusinian Mysteries
from "A History of Religious Ideas, Volume 1" Mircea Eliade pg296
"at first he [the initiate] wanders in DARKNESS and undergoes all sorts of TERRORS; then suddenly, he is struck by a marvelous LIGHT and discovers pure regions and meadows, hears voices, and sees dances. The mysete, a crown on his head, joins the "pure and holy men"; he beholds THE UNINITIATED, huddled together in mud and fog, sunk in their WRETCHEDNESS THROUGH FEAR OF DEATH and MISTRUST OF BLISS in the beyond (Stobaeus 4, p. 107 Meineke)."
Another way of saying it:
The Heroes Journey
Once through the fires they no longer hold you in slavery to fear
Been there done that
Sooo... Even the terrors don't leave us empty handed. God is wonderfull in funny, strange, and often unintelligible ways, or maybe I'm just dense and it takes me a while to get it. I just LOVE books.
