we desperately need a revolution of consciousness

It is 3:21 PM Friday afternoon here in Western Michigan. It is 67 degrees and cloudy/a gray day. Tomorrow it has been predicted to be a sunny day.

I got up this morning around 7:30 AM/I had been awake since 4:50 AM. Carol left around 8:27 AM to help fold church bulletins. I spent the morning writing in my paper diary and reading, 'Theoretical-Practical Theology-Redemption in Christ' Volume by Petrus Van Mastricht. I also filmed a video for my Youtube channel.

Carol got home around 2:03 PM. When she got home I was sitting waiting Time out. I did read for awhile from a book titled, 'The Iovis Trilogy-Colors in the Mechanism of Concealment' by Anne Waldman. Last night I finished reading, 'Zuckerman Unbound' a novella by Philip Roth. Carol and I did watch some Professional Football last night. We did not stay up to see the Detroit Lions beat the Kansas City Chiefs.

There is not much else to report. This evening Caleb, Emily, Emily's Mother Vickie, Josie and Cora are coming over for a meal and to wish Josie Happy Birthday/tomorrow Josie will be 9 years old.

"[1] The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
[2] Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
[3] To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
[4] And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
[5] For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
[6] When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
[7] And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
[8] But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
[9] And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
[10] And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
[11] Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." Acts 1:1-11
