Happy 5th New Year
“Oh, that is a 'Q.'”Richard (Dick) Fredrick Dinan, Bastrop Texas
The innocuous sentence uttered a confession and the instant chill of Texas summer air mac felt a yard away. There are signature postures and expressions, the tells of poker, a man never out-grows. Decades earlier Dick delivered his man-hood to the mouth of granddaughter to WWII Lieutenant Commander John (Mac) Erskine MacRae while the kindergartner was in the hands of her mother Mary Anne McRae Dukes (Hawaii artist). Dick, did you pay Mary even 12 pieces of silver for that act? How many grandchildren did that Waikiki beach toilet see the worlds' Dicks with? If that opaque-latexed masonry could talk.
The chill was recognition that the woman just built and trademarked, without protest, the code cult name of international mongers. Geoffrey Emil Brehmmer and Dick were in deep doo-doo for their qngmic shit. The witness that took down the qngmic cult needed protection. Dick, Judas hung himself. mac is not buying you the rope. When the wicked die there is no celebration for the righteous. We grieve, "Why didn't that useless fucker listen?"
Recall the words of Elisha to the commander Naaman? Naaman was just healed of leprosy by washing in the Jordan river at Elisha's word. Elisha never even looked out his door at Naaman's leprosy. No one is being asked to ceremonially bathe in a river. The Christ fulfilled cleansing at the Jordan when baptized by John. Naaman's objection to the water still holds today. It was Naaman's humility that cured him.
It is against life to make a test of God's existence using people. It is reasonable to be blinded by truth, Saul of Tarsus sure was. It is so simple to build a friendship with God. Just ask Him in prayer to help you find your way to moving out of the way of those semi-headlamps. No one need like Elisha or even that mac does not run around bending over backward looking to lick the boots of all the important pretty people. She does not have the luxury of treating anyone like they are greater than her owner. God says, Boom Baby!
