This is the third post in a series about Hearing from God. You can use these links to read part one and two.
Last time I discussed how we hear from God through nature, the Bible, and dreams. What was next on my list was different than what I believe is meant for today.
I'm going to tell you the story of my morning today. I promise it will fit in.
This morning I got out of bed begging God for forgiveness. I can be a despicable, weak sinner. He answered immediately and saved me from the darkness within, and I got up and tried to decide what to do with my day when I felt like trash.
Writing a post about Hearing from God just seemed entirely out of my ability at the moment. My best friend Tabitha and fiance Ryan were also both online and I was talking to them on facebook chat.
They didn't know it, but I ended up curling on my side in the recliner, fetal position style, and sobbed my heart out for a few minutes. I cried out to God, "Just tell me what to do! I want to be obedient!" This might have seemed an extreme reaction to you, but the refrain going through my mind was, "Why don't any of the jobs I want ever want me? I feel like I'm never good enough." Of the last 48 MONTHS of my life, I've spent 37 1/2 of them unemployed. There's only so much rejection a girl can take!
And I talked about how I felt to Tabby. And it made me think about this documentary I saw yesterday which I plan on posting about later, but for this story you need to know it's caused an ache in me to do something about the unjust economical system somehow, to ease some of the suffering in the poor somehow.
And I think that's part of the reason I've been unemployed. Somehow God has raised me in the richest country on the planet while giving me a heart that doesn't just feel for the poor, but claims them. I'm not saying that I am the poorest of the poor by any means (the fact that I'm online proves that) but what I mean is, I honestly know I am them, but for the grace of God. I watch this documentary about unjustice and I feel like sticking up for my loved ones, these strange people in a strange country I've never met. I can't really describe it, but I know it's alien to the way most of my countrymen feel around me.
And this brings me back to Hearing from God. One of the biggest and most amazing way He talks to us all is with our experiences. Remember, He is Sovereign. He puts us in situations where we are needed or we need, usually both. He gives us trials that uniquely shape us. He gives us pleasures and desires that direct our paths.
Like our memories, there is both a short and long term version of this, and they weave together over time.
With the long term experiential communication, it typically happens slowly over time and you look back and you say, "Whoa."
Remember, God knows if you're His sheep. I've heard many stories of many people who come to God and know Him for the first time... and then look back and see how all the experiences of their lives is proof, with their new spiritual eyes, that He was there seeking them all along.
And for myself, I can see how He intended me to move to India years before I ever thought the idea or met Ryan. I was a religion minor in college and really was going for the Christianity classes, but you had to take at least two different religions. I was interested in Judaism as a background, so that was a no-brainer, but what about the other one? Well Hinduism fit in my schedule. That was the reason that I took it, but because I did while I am by no means an expert (I just took a 101 level course) I probably know more about that religion so important to my future home than most Americans.
Also, I don't like Chinese food, Japanese food, Korean food, etc.... I find Thai tolerable. But I lovvvveeee Indian food.
There are other more subtle things, but I an look back and see how God knew where I was going long before I did.
Then in the short term version of this kind of communication, it's more obvious (though sometimes we miss it.) A frequent, general example to give you is when the same message keeps coming up through various unrelated sources. For me and others I know, this will often happen with scripture. I'll go to my (not affiliated with my church) Bible Study and we'll discuss a passage. Then I'll go to church and they talk about it there. Then I hear it on the radio or randomly flip my Bible open and land directly on it.
Okay, God, message received! And I study and pray about it and get what He wants to tell me.
And sometimes it's light and fun, like hearing a song at just the right time that it's like an inside joke from God.
And sometimes it's like this morning. When I looked at my circumstances and trials of the past four years and how they've shaped me. And I thought about the documentary that so moved me yesterday. And I remembered blogs I've read over the past year. And seminars I've attended years ago. And then I get online and read a blog post that's quite relevant!
And I go, "Ah, Lord. I see." And I nod thoughtfully, still not sure what to do with this new information, but now aware God's been leading me somewhere and He's opening my heart and especially my hands for something new.
Hearing from God is often like learning a dance by just dancing it. You fumble and trip and misstep... until suddenly it clicks and you do it. And you clap your hands and say, "Let's do it again!" and you revel in getting it... and He goes, "Now that you have that down, let's try this..."
"Let's do that again!" Yes, indeed!
I would like to dance!!!

Including citizenship question on 2020 census "constitutional" and "legal," but John Roberts votes against it anyway, handing open borders advocates a victory
If you are a member of a presidential administration and a policy you impose is deemed both constitutional and legal by a majority of justices on the Supreme Court, you'd expect to be able to implement it, right?
Well, if you're Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, you serve in the Trump administration, and you want to include a question about citizenship on the 2020 census, you'd be mistaken.
You won't be able to ask that question. Because…well, because. You just didn't explain yourself well enough.
On Thursday, the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to send a case involving a lawsuit against the Trump administration's decision to include a question about citizenship in next year's census back to the lower court for additional consideration.
Why? Because, to Chief Justice John Roberts, who wrote the majority's opinion, Ross just didn't 'justify' his reason well enough as to why he wanted to add the question.
"The Secretary's decision to reinstate a citizenship question is amenable to review for compliance with those and other provisions of the Census Act, according to the general requirements of reasoned agency decision making," Roberts wrote in his opinion. "At the heart of this suit is respondents' claim that the Secretary abused his discretion in deciding to reinstate a citizenship question.
"Altogether, the evidence tells a story that does not match the explanation the Secretary gave for his decision. In the Secretary's telling, Commerce was simply acting on a routine data request from another agency," he continued.
Mind you, the decision to add the question was POTUS Trump's (through his Cabinet secretary, Ross) to make. The high court understands that adding the question is both legal and constitutional.
But because Ross didn't present his case well enough — as though he had to say anything other than the fact that he has, under the Constitution, the authority to ask the question — Roberts sided with the high court's Left-wing, open borders, Democrat-appointed wing.
This was a 'legally sound and reasoned exercise' of authority
That wasn't the question under consideration, according to the four opposing justices — Kavanaugh, Alito, Gorsuch, and Thomas. They argued in their dissenting opinion that the Supreme Court's only role was to determine whether Ross was breaking the law or violating the Constitution by including the question in next year's census; and a majority on the court found he did not break the law in doing so. (Related: POTUS Trump planning to end "birthright citizenship" scheme long exploited by the Democrat Left to generate more voters.)
"The Court's erroneous decision in this case is bad enough, as it unjustifiably interferes with the 2020 census. But the implications of today's decision are broader. With today's decision, the Court has opened a Pandora's box of pretext-based challenges in administrative law," they wrote.
"In short, today's decision is a departure from traditional principles of administrative law. Hopefully it comes to be understood as an aberration — a ticket good for this day and this train only," they continued.
"Because the Secretary's decision to reinstate a citizenship question on the 2020 census was legally sound and a reasoned exercise of his broad discretion, I respectfully dissent from Part V of the opinion of the Court," they concluded.
The case is Dept. of Commerce v. New York, which sued over the issue.
Needless to say, POTUS Trump was, um, disappointed in the ruling, and he tweeted as much Thursday afternoon.
…..United States Supreme Court is given additional information from which it can make a final and decisive decision on this very critical matter. Can anyone really believe that as a great Country, we are not able the ask whether or not someone is a Citizen. Only in America!
The president and the administration have argued that the citizenship question is necessary because it will allow for better enforcement of the Voting Rights Act. Leftists argued, however, that no, all Trump is really trying to do is suppress minority votes — an argument that is so overused and so old the Supreme Court has heard it a thousand times if justices have heard it once.
One spot of good news: Trump has asked his administration to hold off printing the Census forms until the question can be successfully redressed.

A Bluebird in My Heart(conosciuto anche col titolo francese Tu ne meuras point) è un film del 2018 diretto da Jérémie Guez.

La pellicola è stata presentata l'11 marzo 2018 al South by Southwest Film Festival, per essere poi essere distribuita nelle sale francesi il 5 settembre 2018.

Trama
Appena uscito di prigione e ancora sotto sorveglianza, il danese Denny, trova alloggio in un modesto hotel belga di periferia. La struttura è gestita da Laurence, madre dell'adolescente Clara, e con un marito in procinto di uscire dal carcere.

Clara si annoia e sente molto la mancanza del padre, anche perché la madre, con mille scuse, non la porta da mesi agli incontri in carcere. In realtà, sapendo che il marito non ha intenzione di tornare a casa in quanto ha intrapreso una relazione con una sua istruttrice, tenendo distante la figlia cerca di alleviarne il trauma che avrà quando saprà la verità e dovrà sopportare un distacco ancora più grande.

Denny, taciturno e misterioso, viene assunto come lavapiatti in un vicino ristorante asiatico e fa dei lavori edili nell'hotel per pagarsi la stanza. Clara ci fa amicizia e lui mostra grande sensibilità e vicinanza verso una ragazza che evidentemente cerca dove può una figura paterna.

Una sera in cui la madre è occupata fuori, Clara è avvicinata da un ragazzo e, vittima della propria curiosità e ingenuità, cade nella trappola del malintenzionato che la violenta. Denny sente dei rumori ma giunge solo in tempo per venire minacciato dal ragazzo, armato di pistola, che riesce a scappare.

Soccorsa la ragazzina ferita e traumatizzata, Denny mantiene con la stessa il segreto di quella sera, prefissandosi l'obiettivo di vendicarsi. Il destino lo pone presto di fronte al responsabile dello stupro e così, in preda ad un istinto violento irressistibile, lo uccide e poi ne occulta il cadavere.

Sembra farla franca, ma prima deve confessare a Laurence la verità, suscitando, almeno momentaneamente, enorme biasimo. Quindi viene trovato da una banda di malavitosi che pretende da lui il compenso per la droga andata in fumo con il cadavere del "malcapitato" violentatore-spacciatore.

Ne nasce una faida che lo costringe a nuova violenza, solo in parte placata per intervento di Clara, ma che comunque, regolati i conti, lo costringerà a fuggire.

Laurence lo aiuta in questo, avendo compreso l'umanità di un uomo, sì in difficoltà nel sedare istinti violenti, ma seriamente intenzionato a rifarsi una vita su altre basi. Clara, segnata dalla violenza ma forte degli insegnamenti di Denny, riabbraccia il padre anche se questo, uscito di prigione, probabilmente non tornerà più a casa.

Freezing rain in the forecast
Winter is here, with sub-zero temperatures likely to create health and safety concerns through the weekend.
"You didn't set a record but you got very close," said Jim Sweeney, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Lake Charles. He said temperatures in Opelousas overnight Wednesday and Thursday morning hit 24 degrees, only four degrees above the record for the date.
"When you add in the wind chill, it felt more like 13 degrees," Sweeney said.
He said it won't be as cold Friday, but there is a possibility of freezing rain. The precipitation should be arriving about dawn with freezing rain and ice pelts that might continue until about 9 a.m.
He said temperatures at that time should be right at freezing, so there is some possibility of a slight accumulation of ice on elevated roads and bridges creating slippery conditions.
But temperatures will be above freezing after that so the ice, if it does come, won't create a serious problem.
He said the chance of rain will return Saturday, but temperatures will be above freezing "so it will just be cold rain."
By Sunday temperatures should be in the 50s, closer to normal for this time of year, and are expected to be in the 60s by Monday.
Local plumbers said they fielded few calls related to frozen or broken pipes Thursday morning. But with freezing temperatures expected to return overnight they were keeping their crews on standby.
Mary Laurent with SLEMCO said the cold produced minor power outages in a few areas but nothing serious.
Unless there is a great deal of freezing rain, she said, they are not expecting any problems Friday either, "but we have all our crews on standby. We are ready to go."
With the worst of the cold how behind us, most schools are expected to be open Friday.
Heather Hargrave with the Schools of Sacred Heart in Grand Coteau said those schools were closed Thursday and the campus came through the cold weather without any damage. Because freezing rain is possible, though, they will remain closed Friday.
Lisa Vidrine with the St. Landry Parish Office of Emergency Preparedness said it appears the parish weathered the cold in good shape.
"We had nothing significant. It was a nice, quiet night," Vidrine said Thursday. She said the biggest problem was dealing with rumors being shared on various social media outlets.
Vince Deshotel, St. Landry Parish's county agent, said the relatively short cold snap shouldn't have any effect on the local farm economy.
"The cane has all been harvested. There is some winter wheat in the fields, but wheat can withstand a lot of cold," Deshotel said.
He said the cold will drive crawfish down into their burrows, but that shouldn't affect the crop.
"It is looking like we were going to have a pretty good crop and this might slow things down a bit. But unless we are looking a freezing temperatures for five or six days it shouldn't create any issues," Deshotel said.

ASR Dutch Science Park Fund qualifies as impact investment
The ASR Dutch Science Park Fund has been classified as an impact investment by anchor investor a.s.r. and received "reasonable assurance" from fund auditor KPMG. a.s.r. real estate's definition of impact investment has been assessed against the standards of INREV and GIIN. The ASR Dutch Science Park Fund invests in sustainable commercial real estate located on Dutch science parks. This allows the Fund to not only positively impact the ecosystems of these science parks, but to also create an ideal environment for companies that make positive contributions to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
By providing an ideal environment on science parks for companies focussing on innovative and sustainable products and solutions, the Fund makes a valuable contribution to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). One example is the Oldelft B.V. company. Oldelft develops medical ultrasound transducers that are most often used in the field of cardiology. Another example is Lionex International. This tenant of The Gallery in Twente is a leading global supplier of customised microsystem solutions in scalable production volumes. Its applications tie in with the themes of energy efficiency, sustainable agriculture, water, and health. With this in mind, the Fund not only reports on its direct impact on the ecosystems of science parks, but also on the impact of users in relation to the UN SDG. The Fund does so on the basis of the UN PRI Impact Investing Market Map, which offers investors a practical link between the broad ambitions of the sustainable development goals and the specific opportunities for impact investment.
The Fund's strategy and objectives in the field of impact investment correspond to the standards formulated for that purpose by the INREV (the European Association for Investors in Non-Listed Real Estate Vehicles) and the GIIN (the Global Impact Investing Network).
Over 70% of the portfolio has a positive impact on the local ecosystems
The ASR Dutch Science Park Fund invests in sustainable commercial real estate that contributes to the optimisation of Dutch science park ecosystems. The Fund aims to invest at least 50% of its portfolio in real estate that has a positive and measurable impact on local ecosystems. Reports on this aim are published periodically. As of 31 December 2020, 72% of the Fund's portfolio meets these criteria.
Partnerships with government bodies and semi-public institutions
In addition to individual investments, the Fund also invests through partnerships with government bodies and semi-public institutions; universities and local government bodies in particular. These partnerships create a low-risk environment that allows the Fund to invest in a wider range of real estate and to contribute to the further development of the science parks in which the Fund and its partners have a common interest.

Priscilla Presley Details Elvis Presley's Drug Abuse & Final Days In Documentary
by Tatyana Samonte EscanoMarch 18, 2018, 3:08 amMarch 18, 2018, 3:08 amMarch 18, 2018, 3:08 amDaily Digest, News, News Feed >
The new HBO documentary Elvis Presley: The Searcher gives an inside look to the parts of the King of Rock n' Roll's life that has never been shared before.
The legend's former wife Priscilla Presley was the executive producer for the documentary and held a panel at the South By Southwest Film Festival in Austin. She was alongside director Thom Zimny, Sony Music's John Jackson, and country songwriter David Porter.
READ: Oscars 2018 Best Dressed List
During the panel she expressed that it was hard at times to revisit the darker memories. "It was difficult for all of us, we certainly didn't see it coming. But we certainly saw the journey he was taking," she said.
One of the main topics of the film was the singer's struggle with prescription drug abuse, Zimny often consulted Presley about what had happened and the experience of being there with him. However, he felt that some details should only be touched on and not dwelled on. "It's not a clear black and white situation," he said. "When I was looking at certain tracks [from] the very end of his life…I still have this feeling that there was a man who was connecting to the music and that this story has been told one way. Sitting and listening to that music and also talking at length with Priscilla, I realized that we were going to be able to touch on some of the tragic moments, not dwell in the details of it."
Presley discusses about what led him to get to that point of addiction and how she has dealt with people who said no one did anything to help him. "People go, 'well why didn't anyone do anything?' Well, that's not true. People there in the inner group did, but you did not tell Elvis Presley what to do. You did not. I mean, you'd be out of there faster than a scratched cat. They would try and no way. He knew what he was doing."
READ: Grammys 2018 Best Dressed List
Presley also credits much of Elvis's abuse to time in the U.S. Army — he started taking pills when he was stationed in Germany for two years.
The film does not just focus on the dark times of his life, but also discusses his childhood and how he came to become the King of Rock 'n' Roll.
Fans will have the chance to watch the emotional documentary on April 14 on HBO.

and knows its completion, in each others arms.
in Union with you, my Beloved.
