“Restoration” A Reblog of another Faithful WordPress Follower with Commentary by John J. Rigo, Texas’ Poet, Copyright 2015

“Mustard Seed Budget” is another one of my faithful followers. We agreed on many things when it comes to religious belief, especially in the belief that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. I have huge disagreements with some of his insights about God. For one I do not believe God is a “Punisher” of humans in order for them to crawl back to Him. “What harm we do in life, in the majority of cases, we do to ourselves” is my way of belief. Other than that I believe this WordPress blog has much wisdom to give to us all and is truly worth reading and following.
Little Ismael, one of Carlos’ kids.
a time to gather stones together — Eccelesiastes 3:5
The pieces of our lives get scattered. Either things explode by themselves, or we make poor choices and squander the good gifts God gave us.
When we are angry at God, He waits patiently for us. Sometimes, we have to be broken to come to God humbly. Then He begins to pick up the pieces of our lives.
God sent me to Guatemala on a mission that I didn’t originally know what for. But it was for restoration.
Carlos opted out of the church. He was hit with the double whammy of church rules and bubbling hormones. The hardness has melted now. His mother died a month ago. Elisa was a powerful force for years to help build the church. Carlos has finally taken over his dad’s bread bakery and is trying to be the…

Hocuspocus13 has been a follower of my WordPress Blog for a very long time. There is always those that seem to be the first to post a like with a new posting on one’s WordPress Blog, this WordPress follower follows in that faithful group. The Blog itself, is one of mystery in some ways. Who the poster really is, seemly is never revealed. The Reblogs themselves within the blog are insightful and full of knowledge in the worlds beyond us. Worth going thru for that special knowledge that seems to excape us in the everyday media, but yet down deep within our spiritual being, we know to be true.
“On Falling Stars” a poem by SteveHi ReBlogged with Commentary by John J. Rigo, Texas’ Poet Copyright 2015
Posted in A Reblog of the poetry works of SteveHi on WordPress on January 3, 2015| Leave a Comment »
Steve has been a follower of my work for some time. In his work I see a large part of me, my dreams, my regrets, my fears. As we approach our elder years, which I am already in at 73, we see death right before us. Each day we read and hear on the media of another dying right close to our own age and become keenly aware how hard the clock is ticking against our time on the earth. Read Steve’s poetry work. The landscape will become very familiar to you if you are a senior such as me.

Posted in A ReBlog that brought me Great Humble Honor on January 3, 2015| Leave a Comment »
In 2014 there have been many ReBlogs of my past poetry and especially my now past Commentary’s regarding community, the nation and our world. Of all of these, this posting by this WordPress Blogger brought me the most humble of honors. What an awesome site this woman has in support of police personnel around the world. It is truly at a time, that this kind of praise for our police departments around the world is badly needed.

My dear blogger friends, today’s post is based on the comments left on my “About” page by a great poet and a human being John J. Rigo, Texas’ Poet and Commentator (http://texaspoetry.net.). So rightfully, he recognizes and acknowledges the enormous impact of the generosity and caring attitude of Police Officers in his childhood. It surely is a pleasure to read these feelings of gratitude. Since I believe,
