Nice Prayer! Right back at you, with an Advent Gift for us imperfect to increase our Faith in the Perfect. 🙏

Perfection, 100% reliable repeatable harmonics in language and music is hard scientific evidence of God. And God’s dominion over linear time from perfect Redeemed Time. So God is not a clock maker God separated from us who wound up the universe and left us.

If this was either an Atheist random universe or a Clock Maker God Universe, then over linear time, music and language would decay into Atheist secular gibberish. Instead, every time Ave Maria is played back, the harmonics repeat exactly like the first time.

And, with out reliable repeatability, the scientific method can’t even work.

So God Bless all with Christmas Blessings of Love=God.

“Hell is the delusion that some how God and you are separate from one another.”~ St Mother Teresa

Tessa, as a writer, I understand the importance of words and how they can convey impactful emotions, beliefs, and a worldview. Each of us is a game-changer. May your pen never run out of ink, your keyboard remains filled with inspiration, your paper never run out of space, your mind never run out of ideas, and may your heart never run out of love, compassion, and ministry. I pray that the blessings of our Christ-as-Life Christmas bring you the joy of the greatest author of eternity – God the Father. Merry Christ-as-Life!

Happy Birthday Jesus! 9 months after Mary said yes to the Will of Our Father. Via the Angel Gabriel. And was conceived of the Holy Spirit into the New Eve, New Arc of the New Covenant.

This is my Christmas Prayer for you:

Tender Jesus, Precious Child of God, thank you for coming into our world to reclaim the holiness of our human experience – for mirroring our true identity as God’s beloved. Save us this Christmas and at all times from what separates us from Your presence and goodness within us. Renew the innocent inner child in us who longs for You and God’s loving presence.

We kneel in awestruck humility and gratitude before the gift of Your love. May you transform us, and those we love. Give us understanding of the Christmas mystery of your unconditional and generous love.
