The older I become in my Christian walk the more obvious it becomes that God enters into every situation to perfect trust in His children.
As I’ve observed His children there are a few noticeable behavioral responses that seem to pattern in their lives. You might call them growing pains. If we’re honest with ourselves we’ll admit we have practiced these behaviors. Doubt is usually the trigger to our carnal responses. Reason and spiritual ignorance are usually brought in as first responders to any crisis. This is where your mind goes around about the sovereignty of God. If God is omnipotent then every thing that happens to us is by divine decree or divine permission. We can even find scriptures like in job to support these first responders. This merry-to-around intends to bring us to blame because we can’t reconcile the events with a loving God or a just God or bring us to trust in a false precept that will ultimately disappoint which will move us to not trust God. Generally haste accompanies these first responders.
If you should survive the lies of the first responders then introspective will search your life for sin. If you don’t find it you move to doubts again of God’s justice or question your blindness. In either case truth is missing and God is not trusted. If you should find sin then shame calls you to hide from God or to excel in religious practice so you can earn His favor and appease His wrath. The result again is not trusting God.
If introspective fails then extrospective measures your life against others. The same cheerleaders assist you here. The result again is eyes turned away from God in distrust. You will see people you judge not as good as you blessed or people better than you. Your judgment is false and cannot lead to truth.
Apathy can arrive as part of your hiding from God. This is a response to all the disappointments of improper or misplaced trust. It is not trust to behave like a kite with no attachment to a relationship, soon you will find yourself lost wondering where God is.
But the love of God is trustworthy and calls our spirit in every circumstance to say “unto you Lord do I commend my spirit”. This is the only response that keeps its focus on God and allows His virtues to walk you through all your weakness until you acquire more evidence of His faithfulness; I am not disappointed by my prolonged incarceration or the injustice that currently triumphs over my life. God has always been near and changeless in His tender mercies towards me. A perfect love cast out fear which is the companion to all doubts and responders. The faith of Christ is the gift given to overcome all these lies and allow you to rest in a perfect love no matter the circumstances. Trust is not natural but supranational. That is why only God’s true children can practice it. And the world will always ridicule it.

________________________________
This statement is for Dr. Ira, to suggest that "regret" or the feeling of being able to do a "do over" if given the chance, is not a possibility in the trusting Christian's mind, and not in Kurt's mind, who has always been about his Father's business.
I feel that this trust and optimism also comes from a faithful "end game" that has always been in sight and never been lost, despite all the uncomfortable events and unpleasant circumstances that seem to still rule. Not only has God's love and mercy been present with Kurt from day one, but also his vision of victory and vindication.
Some might call of this religious rhetoric, but his faithful see these things as real character traits that can't be stolen away or destroyed, and are in fact the mark of a true believer.
The true test is found in adversity and how one handles this and the attitude he maintains.
Blessings always follow the faithful in due time. This is just how He works. When that happens, the Dorean Group won't have to say, "well I told you so," and you weren't listening, for it has always been a fact to them and something that could always be counted upon.

sorry!!
but i fail to see how "....am not disappointed by...." tranlates into "...i would do it all over agian..."
i mus be missin sum thins... A LOT OF THINS...
but no fear, i am sure that you will find a way to translate it that way....
"...yes, i spent $30,000 on this car, but i am not disappointed with it...but surely this means taht i would buy anohter one..'
waht???
translated:
"...yes, i spent $30,000 on this car, but i ELATED with it...and SURELY this means taht i would buy anohter one..
NOT DISAPPONTED = ELATED/HAPPY
NOT.
"yes, i did 7 years in the can...i am not dissapointed, and surely i would do anther 20, no problem.
"in fact, i am so happy, i would gladly do another 10 for nothing. and if the dg didnt put me there, i was about to volunteer to go and do time anyways..."
FRENCH: GIVE ME A F***KING BREAK!!!
nonetheless, i am glad that you can speak for kirk and tell us what he really means from his blogs.
i guess the rest of us (2) dont udnerstand him.
to MOST ppl, "disappointed" means that they are not necessarily angry or upset at the outcome.
BUT IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY ARE HAPPY ABOUT IT EITHER AND IT CERTAINLY DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY WOULD DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN.
ONLY IN YOUR MIND DOES IT MEAN THAT.
in any case, oct. 28 end of the mayannaise calendar is but a few weeks away.
just hold on...you wont have to worry about the dg settle mints anymore.
the cuntry will be very different by then. trust me.
Kurt,
When you get out, I am willing to help you out a bit. Man taking care of their fellow man. That's what this life should be about.
I watch and read and hope that your freedom comes as soon as possible.
"Man taking care of their fellow man. That's what this life should be about."
I AGREE COMPLETY.
IN FACT, FOR THOSE WHO WILL LISTEN REGARDING THE MAYANAISSE CALENDAR, OCT. 28, AGE OF AQUARIUS, 2012, ETC
THE FACT IS:
PAY ATTENTON NOW...
THOSE WHO DO NOT OPEN THEIR HEARTS W-I-L-L N-O-T SURVIVE PAST 2012.
TRANSLATED:
THEY WILL DIE.
EITHER FROM NATURAL CAUSES; SICKNESS, OLD AGE, ETC
OR FROM SOME KIND OF MISFORTUNE, ACCIDENT, INJURY, ETC.
MOST WILL NOT BELIEVE NOR UNDERSTND THIS, BUT I ASSURE YOU THAT IT IS TRUE.
THE AGE OF AQUARIUS IS INFUSING A NEW FREQUENCY OF VIBRATION IN OUR BODIES.
THOSE WHO CANNOT/WILL NOT ADAPT, WILL SURELY PERISH.
ADAPTING MEANS OPENING UP AND PUTTING LOVE IN ONES HEART.
T-R-U-S-T M-E ON THIS.
DONT FIND OUT THE HARD WAY.
NOT DISAPPONTED = ELATED/HAPPY
_____________________________
I would change Elated/happy to DELIGHTED. That would be a little better fit. No, it's not that I speak for Kurt, (your assumption), it's just that my reading comprehension is just a little better than yours.
"I started Dorean in righteousness by the guidance of His spirit. It attacked the works of the enemy in accordance with the will of the head and nature of Christ. Shall I tremble because all hell broke loose? No, I am DELIGHTED, I will CONTINUE down the same course that got the ire of the devil"
If you continue down the same path that enlightened you in the beginning, this is not regret, or a "do over" as you suggest. But by your own admissions, you already say you don't understand, so why the anger? How funny that you also assume that you "speak for the rest of the blog". LOL
The wicked & hard hearted will survive way past 2012, I assure you. I'd even wager on this. You can count on it like a cold sore that won't go away. The last & final battle against evil doesn't happen until after the millenium, when they are all cast out for good, and we all know that hasn't started yet, because Christ hasn't arrived yet from the clouds and literally from heaven above to reign personally on this earth for a 1000 years yet, and the anti-Christ won't even be on the scene earlier than 2013.
I'm still waiting for the whole State of Florida to be evacuated from the gulf oil spill. I can't wait to claim the whole State of Florida for myself by adverse possession once everyone leaves. You got me so excited, only to disappoint me since it hasn't happened yet. Maybe that won't happen until the end of 2012 though is what I think you are saying.
I wonder if BP if they had to do it over, if they would have not sabotoged their own oil rigs after seeing the great environmental devastation? I think the huge clean up profits made even couldn't change their minds on a do over either.
The nature of the beast doesn't change. A leopard doesn't change his spots.
I rarely see a person's basic general nature change over a lifetime.
Money doesn't change people. It just make assholes, bigger assholes because that's what their nature was before they ever had alot of money. It only accentuates their basic nature.
You speak of any inheritance from Dorean as a moot point. You're wrong there too as it diminishes the importance of everything Kurt has done to date, and what would be the purpose of a victory party if there is nothing to celebrate?
ust hold on...you wont have to worry about the dg settle mints anymore.

You see doom and gloom. I see opportunity.

That which runs the world is not people, but ideas, ie: the establishment’s ideas.
Political parties never change, because they promote the ideas of the establishment. The political system will change when politicians are elected to office to do only ONE thing: the will of the people. After a person has been elected to office (to do only ONE thing) then, and only then, people can put their ideas to vote, which is then executed by the person in office who was elected to do only ONE thing: execute the ideas (will) of the people. Right now there is no separation between the candidate and their ideas. People ‘think’ they vote for a particular candidate, but they do not. They vote for the candidate who represents the establishment’s ideas. The people have no WILL in either selection.
Until the IDEA that government officials are elected to government office TO DO ONLY ONE THING (the will of the people), things will continue to happen in human life (as they have been) according to the law of accident.
P.D. Ouspensky:
Things happen in human life according to three laws:
The law of accident, when an event happens without any connection with the line of events we observe.
The law of fate. Fate refers only to things with which man is born: parents, brothers, sisters, physical capacities, health, and things like that. It also refers to birth and death.
The law of will. Will has two meanings: our own will, or somebody else’s will. We cannot speak of our own will, since, as we are, we have none.
Q. When do we cease to be under the law of accident?
A. When we develop will.
In a TRUE democracy, it is a TWO part system. The first part: electing someone to office to do ONLY one thing: the will of the people. The second part: voting on ideas, which are then executed by the person who was elected to do the one and ONLY thing.
Right now what have is candidate and idea rolled into one- there is no room for the peoples' will.
DEMOCRACY NOW!
correction- a TWO part process, not TWO part system. I must have been thinking about our current system which is a TWO party system.
The people have no will.
When they are told it is against the law to sell lemonade in their own front yard, they do as they are told:
