Topic: Man in Three Dimension
Text: 1Thess 5:23
Sometimes, we do things amiss without understanding who we are.
Who are you? Do you know what manner of being you are?

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration

 Man is a combination of three things. The Body, Soul, and Spirit.
Take good care of these three things. Most times you guide your car, phone. Do you guide your spirit?

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
God relates to us through our spirit and if you don't take care of your spirit, you won't hear from God.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
What do you do to your soul? Mind what gets in your mind.
Nobody makes you feel bad without your consent. Mind what makes you envious of others. These are things that destroy the soul.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
Protect your spirit from what can quench your fire. Things like laziness, pleasure. Mind what brings these three down (Spirit, Soul, and Body)

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
Things That Can Quench Your Fire Spiritually
1. Laziness: You are lazy to pray.
2. Pleasure: Temporary pleasure is one thing that puts you off from God. Earthly pleasure.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
Three Things To Guide Against Earthly Pleasure

1. Don't be possession driven (Luke 12:15, Mark 8:36&37)
What profits you when you gain the whole world and lose your soul.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
2. Be a Kingdom Asset: Add value to the kingdom. Dont be a liability. (2 Tim 2:20&21)

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
What value do you contribute to the Kingdom? Are you a giver or a receiver? Make yourself useful and a solution.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
3. Aspire To Please God: (2 Corin 5:9-10) Your reward would be according to what you have done whether good or bad.
Make pleasing the Lord become a motivation of your actions, words, etc.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
Relate to people, according to the way the Lord will be pleased. Make it tour aim to be well-pleasing to God in everything you do.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
#Prayer

Tell the Lord you want to be well-pleasing to Him. Lord help me to please you in everything I do. Anything that would distract me from pleasing You, let it drop off. in Jesus name.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
#Prayer

Let your fire burn in me as I go around my business, work this week, and beyond in Jesus name.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration
Declaration:
I receive the fire of the Lord. I will be on fire for Him In Jesus name. I will win and I will not be small. Amen.

Title: On Fire for God

To be on fire for God is not how much you shake your head or shout but a consciousness. When you have it, you know it. Your desire is aligned with God's desire.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration #prayer

Fire is contagious, it spreads to those around it. When you are ablaze for God, it is evident in the life of those around you. The fire can't be contained.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration #prayer

Anywhere you are, they should be able to identify you with Christ. A quiet Christain doesn't go far. People around you ought to feel your fire.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration #prayer

Triangle of Fire

Fuel
Heat
Oxygen

Without these three fire can't take place in the natural realm.

#ChurchGRA #GRAService #Restoration #prayer

As a child of God, you need to consistently be on fire for God. Here are three things you need to stay on fire for God.

1. Word of God. This is the fuel that ignites the fire in you. The Word of God is spirit and life.

Topic: Gratitude, Faith, and Answer

Gratitude is the quality of being thankful. 1Thess 5:16,17 and 18.

#ChurchGRA #Gratitude #MyTurnToShine

You shouldn't only show gratitude when you receive something but also give thanks even when things don't go as planned.

#ChurchGRA #Gratitude #MyTurnToShine

There are times where there is no reason to give thanks, but that is the perfect time to show gratitude. In everything, give thanks.

#ChurchGRA #Gratitude #MyTurnToShine

God defines gratitude differently from the way we define gratitude. Man can deceive you with gratitude but God can not be deceived. God sees the heart; He sees beyond the surface.

#ChurchGRA #Gratitude #MyTurnToShine

Gratitude is the state of the heart. Some people would give anything to have your kind of life but they have no idea of the challenges you face. Be Grateful.

Message Title: Gratitude in Marriage

When a man is grateful to the wife, he will get double from the wife and vice versa. Anytime you're grateful to your spouse your cup overflow.

#ChurchGRA #Gratitude #MyTurnToShine

Gratitude is an appreciation for something one has done for you. (2 Samuel 9:1) Couples expect their spouse to show appreciation for things done. Whenever this isn't forthcoming, there will be a reaction from such a spouse.

#ChurchGRA #Gratitude #MyTurnToShine

In a similar vein, God expects us to express gratitude to Him for all He has done for us. The story of the ten lepers portrays this fact. (Luke 17:11-19)

#ChurchGRA #Gratitude #MyTurnToShine

Whenever you don't show gratitude to your spouse, you are removing something from your spouse. Many times couples focus on things that have not to be done rather than appreciating things that have been done.

#ChurchGRA #Gratitude #MyTurnToShine

How do you show appreciation in marriage?

1. Never trivialize what your spouse has done; no matter how little it may seem, always appreciate their effort.

global health policy in 2020 has centered around NPI's (non-pharmaceutical interventions) like distancing, masks, school closures

these have been sold as a way to stop infection as though this were science.

this was never true and that fact was known and knowable.

let's look.


above is the plot of social restriction and NPI vs total death per million. there is 0 R2. this means that the variables play no role in explaining one another.

we can see this same relationship between NPI and all cause deaths.

this is devastating to the case for NPI.


clearly, correlation is not proof of causality, but a total lack of correlation IS proof that there was no material causality.

barring massive and implausible coincidence, it's essentially impossible to cause something and not correlate to it, especially 51 times.

this would seem to pose some very serious questions for those claiming that lockdowns work, those basing policy upon them, and those claiming this is the side of science.

there is no science here nor any data. this is the febrile imaginings of discredited modelers.

this has been clear and obvious from all over the world since the beginning and had been proven so clearly by may that it's hard to imagine anyone who is actually conversant with the data still believing in these responses.

THREAD: We filed RTIs on behalf of @no2uid asking the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare questions about how your personal data will be protected while you're using CO-WIN, the COVID-19 vaccination registration platform.

We got answers... kind of. Here's the new info.

1/n


Just like with Aarogya Setu, many Indians are worried that about the potential CO-WIN has to leak your data or threaten your privacy in the name of dealing with a pandemic. So, we asked the MOHFW some questions about data protection under the Right to Information Act.
2/n


In the responses we received, MOHFW said that it cannot provide us with a privacy policy on CO-WIN (?!).

Thankfully it was clarified that Aadhaar is not mandatory for registration on Aarogya Setu or CO-WIN, and that physical vaccine certificates will be provided to everyone.
3/n

The data it says it will collect will be your name, gender, date of birth, photo ID, and number.

National, State, and District level admins will have access to use the app, but there is not much further clarity on this point.

But most importantly...
4/n

The responses (or rather lack of them) related to your data privacy and protection are completely vague. We received no clear answers on which Ministries/Depts will have access to your personal data, the permissions provided, etc. This is a failure in terms of transparency.

Academic staff at universities can't be open about the complaints against them - and most complaints of transphobia from students seem to be directed at staff. I'm just a final year PhD student, under no contractual requirement to be confidential, so I can share.

The original complaint against me was typical of the sort of thing directed at many female professional academics (and some male too). The strategies employed by my complainants are commonly used.

One of these is to perform vulnerability while behaving aggressively. Performing vulnerability is essential in order to trigger the university's awareness of its duties under the Equality Act, and establish an oppressor/victim dynamic to the case from the outset.

My complainants did this effectively. The complaint was initiated by a fellow PhD student, who joined forces with the SU. A student from the SU wrote the actual complaint. This is how it begins:


In all my dealings with @HuddersfieldUni I accepted that sometimes anonymous complaints were necessary - and that, sometimes, victimisation could be a concern. However, I have never victimised anyone. Nobody has ever argued that I have.

A thread celebrating the many lady librarians of Mumbai, because very often, a woman who reads creates societies of people who read.

Seen here is Mrs Gulshan Feradoon Cooper, Head Librarian for over forty years at The People's Free Reading Room in Dhobitalao. “I am not at all strict, that’s my only drawback,” she said. (She doesn't charge a fine).


“I prefer research libraries because I don’t like novels, I like history," said Sarita Shekar Gandhi, Head Librarian at KR Cama Oriental Institute. Over her years at the library she has devoted herself to understanding the nuances of Zoroastrian studies.


Bidisha Basu co-started @leapingwindows , a library and café for comic books, graphic novels and manga. “You get people who have never read a comic before and that’s the most interesting part of the job. It’s exciting to introduce them to comics," she said.


“A librarian should not only love books, she should also love people," said Arati Desai the Head Librarian at the immaculate Nehru Centre Library in Worli. "I've even swept and swabbed my library, there's dignity in everything that you do at work," she goes on to say.

HELLO: If you pee and every time you finish, your urine looks like this picture, you may have a serious medical illness.

Foamy urine especially if it is persistent and noticeable over time may mean you have a serious kidney problem.

Let’s talk about this today...
RT for others.


What are the features of a normal urine?

A normal urine should have a light yellow colour, painless, odourless (or faint smell), steady stream and should ideally not foam when you pee.

When there’s something wrong, then you see changes in all the above normal features of urine.

For instance if urine becomes very deep yellow, it may mean you are dehydrated;

If urine becomes painful or smells really really bad, it may mean you have an infection;

If urine has a poor stream, especially in a man, it may mean a prostate problem like cancer.

Do you get me?

So today let’s talk about Foamy Urine.

What are the things that can cause urine to suddenly be foamy. As I said in the first tweet, it MAY mean a serious medical illness like a serious kidney problem.

First things first- it does NOT always mean a problem but it may as well.

Now what are the causes of Foamy Urine:

1. SPEED-
If you pee really fast or with a lot of force, it may make your urine more foamy than usual. The speed and force makes the urine generate a lot of bubbles which tend to almost quickly disappear as it is formed in the toilet bowl.

Guruvayur Sri Krishna & Coconut with Horns.
#Krishnaleela
#Bhakthi
🕉
We’ve all grown up listening to stories of Shri Krishna. This one is a famous story of Shri Krishna in Guruvayur Temple, also called Dakshina Dwaraka.


There lived a villager who planted coconut saplings and had promised that he would offer the 'first coconut' from each of his coconut trees to "Guruvayurappan". When the trees started to yield coconuts, he collected the first coconut from all the trees in a sack 👇


and set forth to Guruvayur.

On the way he was stopped by a robber who asked all the items in the sack. The villager told the robber that the coconuts in the sack belonged to Guruvayurappan and so he was unable to hand it over.
@SriramKannan77 @Jayalko1


The robber with anger asked the villager "Is Guruvaurappan's coconut any different? Does it have horns ?".
Saying so the robber pulled the sack forcefully out of the villager's hand, and coconuts came out..👇


To their astonishment each and every coconut in the sack had horns! Even today, the coconut with horns are displayed in the temple for devotees to see.

This is my son, Sam. He’s 5. And today he learned how shitty and harmful #ToxicMasculinity is. My rage meter is spiking right now so excuse me if this is a little raw but there are some things I want to say about BS #gender norms (a thread)


Sam is my middle child & he’s a terror. A “boy’s boy” as so many (not me) would say. He’s rough and tumble, he’s loud, he’s always dirty, loves trucks, plays sports and knee drops me from the couch. But he also loves a lot of “girl” things.

Sam has a collection of purses because he likes to carry things around. And he also loves to have his nails painted bright colors because he thinks they “look beautiful.” And he’s right – they are beautiful…


So he proudly wore his red nail polish to kindergarten this morning because Sam has absolutely no concept of nail polish only being for girls or reason to think anyone would possibly have a problem with beautiful nails.


But his classmates did have a problem. A big one. Sam was ridiculed for being a boy with nail polish. They called him names and told him to take it off. This lasted the entire day.
