| HEY NINETEEN! NOT A 19TH NERVOUS BREAKDOWN!! | | 2007-09-16 12:32:00 | | Josh Beckett took a huge step towards earning the 2007 AL Cy Young award by outpitching and outclassing Chien Min Wang for his nineteenth win of the season. He defeating the New York Yankees in a much needed game for the Sox...the final score was 10-1. The lead is back to 5 1/2 games, five in the loss column, with 13 games left to play. He pitched 7 innings, giving up only one run on 3 hits and striking out 7. Wang, on the other hand, went only 5 2/3 innings, giving up 5 runs on 9 hits. No contest! Beckett said this about the two teams......"We were playing against a tough team," Beckett said. "And I think they'll say the same thing. They knew they were playing against a tough team, also. That's why our games last 12-13 hours."Well, Josh, they may seem that long, that's for sure! And the tension between the two teams was palpable. Kevin Youkilis, who the Yankees and their fans intensely dislike, was hit on the hand and wrist area. He immediately left the game to have it X-Rayed, and th... | | By: Peter's Red Sox Forever | | |
| | CHAPTER NINETEEN | | 2005-09-03 22:24:00 | | INTERMEDIATE TRUTHBefore that point on anyone's path is reached however, the prevailing tendency is to see only what we want in ourselves or the situations in which we’re immersed, then unconsciously––or if pressed––acrimoniously deny, equivocate and rationalize the remainder. It proves easier to accept our shortcomings, assuming any have been brought to our attention, as a direct result of other’s behavior. Most often, our nature is simply to take for granted that the dilemmas and dire circumstances we imagine ourselves bound by, are somehow, someone else's fault and responsibility. This delusion can be so ingrained as to disavow entirely what faith we might have been clinging to, averring; “what kind of God could let this happen?” Being oblivious to even the suggestion of a Divine Plan that Masterfully coordinates circumstances so that each moment’s lesson is realized to its fullest possible fruition, is part and parcel of the prideful ego relying on instinct. As long as we continue to expect some form of satisfaction; closure, reparation, etc., before we can “go on” with our lives, we’ll not know the peace and love of Truth. By the same token, we can’t be expected to perceive The Truth in the first place until our unrealistic externally oriented expectations are discarded so we may choose to change what amounts to; our self-centered, ego driven perspective of “what’s fair”. Only then can we begin coming to grips with the notion that; though there may very well be a reason for every action, our comfort level with not knowing the exact motivation behind each, has room for improvement, which constitutes growing more accepting with each encounter, the consequences of which lead to a rebuilding of lost faith. As alluded to earlier, overcoming our instincts is prerequisite to surrendering our will to God’s Will. Before we can even approach that overcoming though, we will need to have acquired a measure of faith to rely upon in the... | | By: THE HIGH WATCH, a View of God's Unfolding Divine P | | |
