@QuikWit , I'm not Clarion, but I can offer a little bit of insight into ways that might help you kick the addiction to tobacco cigarettes. Believe it or not, smokers prayed for decades for a miracle to help them and/or their loved ones to quit smoking. A miracle came. (no surprise to those who prayed). The devil has bashed the miracle to the point that smokers are now terrified of trying it, using it, and even recommending it. Follow the fear porn to unleash what the they are so terrified of us knowing.

@Shadetree49 , get your hiney back in here. Your questions and insights are more than welcome here. Questioning everything opens the heart and mind to the realm of critical thinking that we have been manipulated out of utilizing.

To all:

Please pray long and hard for Californians. Believe it or not, there are prescribed burns taking place even as the Power companies turn off the power due to extreme fire conditions and fires. The smoke is awful, the fires are worse. Those poor souls! Pray for the entire state of Calif, please!

@Uma-Rae I will comment when and if the Spirit moves me. Sometimes a person needs to regroup or re-energize. I, like many others have highs and lows. It might be what was called in my day, borderline manic-depressive. In other words I run in spurts.

@Shadetree49 , ha! Got you back in here didn't I didn't I. Neener neener. I'll pray for your re-energizing spirit to spurt you back into action in no time. God Bless. (and be Anxious for nothing. God is in control! 🙂 )

Please note, that the THR product mentioned above, is for those who cannot or who will not quit smoking the tar and smoke that kills. It is not for those who've never smoked or 'vaped'. Prayers for you and all who still suffer through the smokey haze.

**Proverbs 15:22 - New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)**

```Dust


<22> Without counsel, plans go wrong, but with many advisers they succeed. ```

Even Elijah, that great Old Testament prophet, hid in a cave for awhile when he was depressed because Jezebel sought to kill him. God caused the ravens to feed him and gave him water from the brook. I am definitely no Elijah. Just an old man waiting for the coming of the Lord and trying to occupy till he comes.

<12> Observe the sabbath day and keep it holy, as the Lord your God commanded you. <13> Six days you shall labor and do all your work. <14> But the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God; you shall not do any work—you, or your son or your daughter, or your male or female slave, or your ox or your donkey, or any of your livestock, or the resident alien in your towns, so that your male and female slave may rest as well as you. ```

The Question about the Sabbath

<1> One sabbath while Jesus was going through the grainfields, his disciples plucked some heads of grain, rubbed them in their hands, and ate them. <2> But some of the Pharisees said, "Why are you doing what is not lawful on the sabbath?" <3> Jesus answered, "Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry? <4> He entered the house of God and took and ate the bread of the Presence, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and gave some to his companions?" <5> Then he said to them, "The Son of Man is lord of the sabbath."```

Plucking Grain on the Sabbath

<1> At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the sabbath; his disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck heads of grain and to eat. <2> When the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, "Look, your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the sabbath." <3> He said to them, "Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry? <4> He entered the house of God and ate the bread of the Presence, which it was not lawful for him or his companions to eat, but only for the priests. <5> Or have you not read in the law that on the sabbath the priests in the temple break the sabbath and yet are guiltless? <6> I tell you, something greater than the temple is here. <7> But if you had known what this means, 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless. <8> For the Son of Man is lord of the sabbath."```

The Words of Eternal Life

<53> So Jesus said to them, "Very truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. <54> Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day; <55> for my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink. <56> Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood abide in me, and I in them. <57> Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever eats me will live because of me. <58> This is the bread that came down from heaven, not like that which your ancestors ate, and they died. But the one who eats this bread will live forever." <59> He said these things while he was teaching in the synagogue at Capernaum. <60> When many of his disciples heard it, they said, "This teaching is difficult; who can accept it?" <61> But Jesus, being aware that his disciples were complaining about it, said to them, "Does this offend you? <62> Then what if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before? ```
