Google is on course to make more than $70bn in revenue this year, and much of that number will be generated by its insanely successful advertising business.
Advertisers pay a fee every time somebody clicks on a link in one of their ads. Some of the costs per click being paid are absolutely staggering. Though they must be worth it, from the advertiser's perspective.
Last month I analysed Google Adwords data from SEMrush to discover the most expensive keywords in the UK. This time, I'll be looking at the US.
So, here are the top 100 terms, taken from a massive dataset of 80m keywords…
Some themes from the research
The legal sector dominates
The most expensive term is closing in on a truly incredible $1,000 per click.
This may sound insane, but consider that the average mesothelioma settlement is in excess of $1m and it starts to make more sense.
Legal terms account for 78% of the top 100, and nine of the top 10. Big money.
Water damage
This is another big ticket item, with more than $250 per click for the top terms. It make sense though. as repair costs and associated claims can run into the tens of thousands.
Popular sectors
Other sectors that need to spend big to make an impression include Finance (insurance mainly), B2B (business telephony dominates here) and Health (the top terms being linked to rehab).
US and UK comparisons
One of the most obvious difference between the keyword costs for the UK and US is the absence of any terms related to gambling in the States, where it remains illegal to gamble online.
Gambling terms accounted for 77% of the UK's top 100 terms, with the most expensive cost per click coming in at around $220.
The other thing is the lack of typos. In the UK advertisers are quite happy to seek out people who cannot spell, something that makes the eyes narrow when those terms are linked to gambling.
Sector by sector
Here's the top five most expensive terms in the US, broken down by sector. I've also adjusted the scale for each one, such is the variance in click costs between industries.
You can share these charts individually, should you wish to do so.
As Google continues to turn the screw towards a fully fledged pay-to-play model my bet is that we'll see even more keyword inflation over the next few years, though ultimately there may be a point at which things start to plateau.
What do you think? Are you surprised by the amount being spent by advertisers? Do leave a comment below…

PARASITIC DISEASE OF RUMINANT INTESTINE parasitic enteritis
There are many types of parasites which live in intestine: 1. Nematodes lives in small intestine as Ascaris sp., Bunstomum sp. or hook worm, Cooperia sp., Trichostrongylus sp., Strongyloid or thread worms, Nematodirus sp., while nematodes of large intestine as Trichuris sp. or whip worms, Chabertia sp. and oesphagostomum sp. 2. Cestodes as Moniezia sp. and larval stage of echinoccoccus. 3. Trematode s as Fasciola sp., Paramphistomum sp., and Schistosoma sp. 4. Protozoa as Cryptospordia sp., Coccidia sp., Plantidium sp. and Giardia sp.
D EFINITION It is a parasitic disease of ruminants, caused by different species of nematodes living in small or large intestine characterized by diarrhea, loss of weight and anemia.
E PIDEMIOLOGY : Distribution : Widely distributed and endemic in Egypt. Animal susceptible : All ruminants are susceptible but young grazing one especially after weaning are more susceptible.
L IFE CYCLE AND MODE OF TRANSMISSION Eggs pass with feces, under suitable condition of moisture and temperature it hatch to first, second and third larval stage (infective stage), infection occurs by ingestion of third larval stage in water or food or by skin penetration and milk ingestion as in Bunostomum sp. and strongyloides sp., the larvae is mature within small or large intestine and adult from appear which laying eggs.
P ATHOGENESIS The larvae and adult cause irritation and inflammation of intestinal walls with occurrence of diarrhea and dehydration Blood loss as in Bunstomum which secrete anticoagulant during feeding resulting in profuse bleeding from laceration of intestinal mucosa Necrotic nodules of intestinal wall which interfere with mechanical movement of the bowel resulting in stenosis as oesophagostomum
C LINICAL SIGNS : Morbidity and mortality rate variable and course is long. Anorexia, weakness, loss of weight. Intermittent or persistent diarrhea (soft watery feces which contain mucous, blood and shreds of mucosa) as in trichuris, chabertia and strongyloides infection Anemia and submaxillary edema especially in cooperia and bunostomum infection. Intusupection and stenosis and nodules (especially in esophagostomum) may be palpated in intestinal wall (more in sheep than in cattle) on rectal examination
P OSTMORTEM LESIONS : Carcass is emaciated, anemic and dehydrated. Intestinal wall is swollen, congested and edematous. The intestine contains watery feces with blood or shred of mucous, necrotic nodules or necrosis in intestinal wall. In esophagostomum, there is intestinal nodules surrounding the larvae which become caseated and calcified.
D IAGNOSIS : Field diagnosis based on signs of anemia, poor body condition, diarrhea, PM, history and epidemiology of the disease. Laboratory diagnosis: - Specimens : feces, intestinal mucosa scrapings, parts of intestine on formalin 10%, blood and serum. - Procedures: Examination of the feces either macro or microscopically by direct or flotation technique after staining by iodine. Fecal egg count or fecal culture to determine the degree of infestation and to differentiate between different parasites from their larvae. Blood and serum biochemical changes reveal anemia and hypoproteinemia. Histopathological findings. Serological diagnosis as agglutination test.

Dear Friends of All Souls School,
In an effort to provide additional resources to parents, I invite all current All Souls School parents and parents of recent alumni to share your insights about your ongoing school. If you have a child in a public or private ongoing school in a grade between K and 12, we hope that you will take a moment to complete the brief questionnaire below.
Your responses will be placed in a binder that will be kept on the 4th floor for parents who are currently applying for their children to Kindergarten to refer to. The binder will be organized with tabs for each school -- information on any school, private or public, where your child is in a grade between K and 12 (or a recent graduate), is welcome.
The binder will be assembled for use as soon as questionnaires are returned and will be updated as more are completed.
This project is being put together by parents to be used as a resource for other parents within our community. Please keep responses to constructive, fact-based answers and your own personal experiences. Responses may be edited or condensed for consistency. Please note that your name and phone or email contact information will be noted in the binder for parents to use only for follow-up questions and not for recommendations.
Forms may be returned via email to
Thank you in advance for your participation in creating this wonderful resource.
Dr. Jennifer Vest

|Dissimulation in youth is the forerunner of perfidy in old age; its first appearance is the fatal omen of growing depravity and future shame. It degrades parts and learning obscures the luster of every accomplishment and sinks us into contempt. The path of falsehood is a perplexing maze. After the first departure from sincerity, it is not in our power to stop; one artifice unavoidably leads on to another, till, as the intricacy of the labyrinth increases, we are left entangled in our snare. - Hugh Blair
|How often do we sigh for opportunities of doing good, whist we neglect the openings of Providence in little things, which would frequently lead to the accomplishment of most important usefulness!... Good is done by degrees. However small in proportion the benefits which follow individual attempts to do good, a great deal may thus be accomplished by perseverance, even in the midst of discouragements and disappointments. - George Crabbe
|In reality a major part of pleasure in obtaining things is overcoming the obstructions that stood in our way. Once we realize this, we will be able to decrease our desire for those things that are spiritually or physically harmful just by examining them objectively and seeing that we are not missing so much. At the same time, we can gain more pleasure from spiritual accomplishments by focusing on how much we are missing in this area and can feel the sense of accomplishment in overcoming the necessary difficulties. - Eliyahu Eliezer Dessler
|Enthusiasm is at the bottom of all progress. With it there is accomplishment. Without it there are only habits. - Henry Ford
|Brotherhood doesn't come in a package. It is not a commodity to be taken down from the shelf with one hand - it is an accomplishment of soul-searching prayer, and perseverance... The spontaneous feeling of brotherhood is a mark of human maturity. - Oveta Culp Hobby
|The work we are doing is more or less the work we meant to do in life [but] it does not yield us the feeling of accomplishment we had expected... If I were required to put into a single sentence my own explanation of the state of our hearts, heads, and nerves, I would do it this way: we are vaguely wretched because we are leading half-lives, half-heartedly, and with only one-half of our minds actively, engaged in making contact with the universe about us. - Walter Kerr, fully Walter Francis Kerr
|The greatest accomplishment is not in never falling, but in rising again after you fall. -
|At first glance, life appears meaningless, futile, full of contradictions and absurdities. But a deeper, meditating look uncovers beauty, order and harmony, revealing life as a supreme accomplishment of eternal wisdom... All of creation is an act of love and providence, a drama imbued with meaning... In simple words: Life is a mission of awareness and awakening and deep enlightenment. We are here to sense this divine presence beyond all phenomena. We are here to recognize a deep urge in our hearts to act in harmony, in conformity and in love with these divinities. - Mustapha Mahmoud
|Five minutes, just before going to sleep, given to a bit of directed imagination regarding achievement possibilities of the morrow, will steadily and increasingly bear fruit, particularly if all ideas of difficulty, worry or fear are resolutely ruled out and replace by those of accomplishment and smiling courage. -
|The successful person is one who is able to take his talents and invest them in the business of living in a manner that leads to the accomplishment of a full life of service... The medium of exchange is not the dollar but services rendered. - Sol Roth

Storm fells historic Varina tree
By Tom Lappas, Citizen Editor 06/30/12
Friday night's ferocious thunderstorm toppled dozens of trees throughout Henrico County, but perhaps none more significant than the one it felled on Route 5 in Varina.
The oak tree that stood for some 150 years there, at the entrance to scenic Tree Hill Farm near the split of New Market Road and Osborne Turnpike, arguably was the most historic tree in the region.
It was known as the Surrender Tree because nearly 150 years ago, beneath its fledgling branches, Richmond Mayor Joseph Mayo surrendered the City of Richmond to Union forces during the Civil War. Six days later, on April 9, 1865, Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia in Appomattox, essentially ending the war.
In the years since, the tree steadily advanced skyward, ultimately sprawling out high above electrical wires and the two-lane road beneath it, rooted to the ground by a trunk that grew to more than four feet in diameter. It presented a grand welcome to visitors at Tree Hill Farm, ushering them along a rolling, gravel-lined path dotted with other stately, if less historic, oaks toward the farm's 237-year-old manor house.
Even as changes came to the 531-acre farm site – which was sold by the Burlee family to developers in 2006 – the tree remained a constant reminder of the site's significance. (Native American artifacts found on the site have led some to conclude that it may have been the home to the Tsenacommacah tribe of Virginia Indians, led by Chief Powahatan, the father of Pocahontas.)
In late 2007, the Henrico Board of Supervisors approved plans for a large-scale mixed-use development on the site, featuring nearly 2,800 housing units, 1.16 million square feet of commercial space and more than 250 acres of green space. Initial plans called for construction to begin by early 2009, but today the site remains untouched, its future put on hold by a faulty economy.
And so for the past six years, the Surrender Tree stood guard over its lonely but breathtaking Varina home, casting long shadows daily as the setting sun disappeared across the James River.
Until June 29, when at last, the Surrender Tree itself surrendered, uprooting itself as it fell across Route 5. It took power crews a number of hours early the next day to clear the tree from the road, which was closed through late morning.
Perhaps it was fitting that the tree's demise occurred on the eve of the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Glendale (the fifth of the Seven Days Battles), which occurred just a few miles east in Varina.

Extremely vulnerable = Vulnerable Persons Officer (VPO) who will carry out a Home Safety Check engaging professionals and carers. Longer term multiple visits/interventions as appropriate. Levels of Service
Home Safety Check is designed to :- Reduce the risk of fire in the home. Reduce the risk of death/injury from accidental fires in the home This is achieved through:- Giving of fire safety advice Fitting of fire safety equipment including smoke alarms where necessary Making referrals to partner organisations Home Safety Checks (HSC)
VPO Role: Provide appropriate and effective interventions to improve safety for those identified as extremely vulnerable Provide additional specialist equipment Engage with partners, carers and professionals who have a shared responsibility for the safety of vulnerable people Develop referral systems with our partner agencies.
Risk and Vulnerability – The Reality!
Chaotic Lifestyle
Electrical A mother of three, left the plug in air freshener device plugged into a kitchen socket while the family visited friends. The £4 freshener overheated and set fire to a pile of clothes before the blaze spread to other parts of the kitchen.
E Cigarettes Safer than cigarettes – still pose fire safety hazard Should be charged in accordance with manufacturers guidelines Charger should be unplugged whilst not in use Have caused at least one fatal accidental fire
Assessing Risk What risk and vulnerability to fire is present? To whom does it present a risk? –To the service user –Those around them (incl adjoining properties) –To those looking after them –Emergency Services Have I recorded my observations and completed a referral form? Is there anything I can do here and now to mitigate the risk? Is it significant enough to ring the referral through to the Contact Centre?

The Economic Report of the President for 2010 is written by the Chair of the Council of Economic Advisers. An important vehicle for presenting the Administration's domestic and international economic policies, it provides an overview of the nation's economic progress with text and extensive data appendices. For more than sixty years, the Economic Report has provided a nearly contemporaneous record of how Administrations have interpreted economic developments, the motivation for policy actions, and the results of those interventions.

AFTER the successful publication of my book The Destruction of Dresden on April 1, 1963 -- which was accompanied by a serialisation in the then fledgling Sunday Telegraph newspaper -- I learned that the British Air Ministry had subjected my two brothers, both Royal Air Force officers, to critical comment and interview.To ease their position, I decided to write a book about one of RAF Bomber Command's most successful operations, the August 1943 strike against Hitler's secret rocket plant at Peenemünde, on the Baltic coast. Of the legitimacy of this particular attack there could

In the years after 9/11, officials scrambled to rethink security at the border and in the air—while privacy groups and foreign governments did their best to stop and then roll back security measures. As a result, we have only partially closed gaping security holes. Worse, the resistance has made it all but impossible to head off other disasters that are inherent in new technologies such as computer networks and biotech. In Skating on Stilts, Stewart A. Baker draws on his experience at Homeland Security to give the reader a ringside seat as the battle unfolds. In a lively memoir, he de

Over the years, many countries have approached the World Health Organization for advice or information on the feasibility of measures to control the growth of expenditure on medicines. Such calls for help led the Organization to undertake a study as early as 1983. The report "Drugs and Money" was widely used and repeatedly updated. This edition aims to provide policy makers and regulators with a compact and practical review of the various approaches that have been developed and tested to date in an effort to contain the overall costs of pharmaceutical services and drug treatment.

The quarter is the oldest one of Rome: in the ancien times the name was SVBVRA (you have to read 'V' like 'U'), it was a place with a lot of brothels... Nerone used to go there in disguise to test plebeian mood, and it is Caesar's birthplace also.
Today is a little bit different, Monti is a very cool quarter!
This is the article published in TheGuardian (http://m.guardian.co.uk/travel/2012/mar/08/rome-monti-neighbourhood-city-guide):
'The full Monti: Rome's cool quarter. A stone's throw from Rome's Colosseum, you'll find the up-and-coming neighbourhood of Monti, buzzing with cool bars, fashion shops and traditional restaurants, loved by a loyal local crowd.
The Colosseum may be one of Rome's main tourist attractions, but wander up the slight incline away from the famous amphitheatre and you'll find endless gems of architecture, craft, fashion and restaurants tucked away in narrow streets and quiet corners. Formerly the city's seedy underbelly – where prostitutes and outlaws took refuge until as recently as the 1940s – Monti is now an enclave for the city's young, creative flock, and has the new upstarts to prove it. Strolling the cobblestone streets, you're likely to hear the hum of a designer's sewing machine or the thud of a hammer in a jeweller's shop.
The neighbourhood, named after one of Rome's seven famous hills, marries modernity with historical charm – from the fresh new ventures rubbing up against centuries of crumbling craftsmanship to the dapper signore ordering his cafe next to a bedraggled hipster.
Smaller and less touristy than the nightlife hub of Trastevere, it retains a strong community vibe...'

Quick Reminder : Do not commit adultery
- You shall not commit adultery. (Exodus 20:14)
- If a man commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor, both the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death. (Leviticus 20:10)
- Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, "Where are your accusers? Didn't even one of them condemn you?" 11 "No, Lord," she said. And Jesus said, "Neither do I. Go and sin no more." (John 8:10-11)
- [Jesus said:] "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.' But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body go into hell.
Pray together and make your family meals great again
In these days of takeaway and drive by meals being available, the habit of praying as a family is being lost to many in the present generation. This is NOT a tradition I'm talking about. This is something that should be natural in spirit to a Christian. The Christian life among many good things is a life of thanksgiving. This again, is not a tradition. I mean it's not about some dedicated holiday in which give thanks to God for your blessing once a year. But rather the main thing is about thanking Jesus for giving you new life each and every day of your life. And this is what matters when you pray as a family; that each one present for meals is alive and alive in Christ.
Not everyone gets to meet up together for even a single meal as a family. Why so? Because some are stuck in debts and some family member has too keep working, while some are working overseas perhaps at oil rigs or places of armed conflicts abroad. While the sadder part is that some of their family members have passed away. And the saddest part is for those who passed without having faith in Jesus Christ, no heaven for them!
So, that is why when you are having your food and drink with your family, firstly give thanks to God that you are all together and safe, secondly thank Jesus for the salvation that he gives you and ask for his forgiveness and blessings, and finally confess that Jesus is Son of God who is your all in all. That's the least you can say in your family prayers together, but you can thank the Lord more and more if you wish. Pray at your family meal times together as a family and make your family meals great again!
Here's a suggested prayer that you can pray at your family meals:
Thanks be to the Lord God and the Lord Jesus Christ for bringing us together for a meal. We thank you O Lord for giving us life and life in abundance. Forgive us of all our sins and heal us in spirit, mind, soul and body. We believe that you O Lord Jesus are the Son of God and we praise God for sending you to us. By the Holy Spirit bless us now as we all share in our earthly meal and grant us that we eat and drink in the marriage supper of the Lamb of God which is to come. Amen and amen.

Joseph of Arimathea, Nicodemus and Jesus
Lets first read the following verses as we reflect on the Lord Jesus Christ and how he brought change in Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus by his death. Here we go:
31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
32 Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.
33 But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:
34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.
35 And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.
36 For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
37 And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.
38 And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.
39 And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.
40 Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.
41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.
42 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.
(John 19:31-42)
Joseph of Arimathaea is not heard of in most part of the Gospels except just after the crucifixion and death of Jesus. Who was this man and what did he have to with Jesus? Also what does Nicodemus have to do in all this?
From what we read in the Gospels (Matthew 27:57–60; Mark 15:42–46; Luke 23:50–53; and John 19:38–42) it's known that he was a disciple of Jesus Christ. However he followed Jesus secretly as he feared the Jews. He was actually a part of the Sanhedrin which was the council of Jewish religious leaders who strived for Jesus' crucifixion. However, the Gospel says that Joseph of Arimathaea did not give his consent but rather opposed their decision. That makes him a good man doesn't it. Besides he was rich. God made him wealthy for a purpose that only few can ever receive from the Lord God. He took a personal risk of life and of reputation when he went to Pilate to receive the dead body of the One True Savior of the World who is none other than Jesus Christ. And by his wealth he could arrange for Jesus to be laid in a tomb (sepulchre). When Jesus was born he was born in manger as there was no place available for him. But at his death this one man from Arimathaea did all he could so that the Savior could be given some dignity after his death. Joseph of Arimathaea did not care for his life anymore as he knew he had to honor the Son of God the giver of eternal life more than anything.
Now to speak about Nicodemus. This man due to his short height had to first meet Jesus by climbing the sycamore tree. Though this man was a great sinner, Jesus came to dine in his house much to the dismay of the religious leaders. Yet Jesus led this man Nicodemus to repentance and salvation. In the due course of time, when Jesus died on the cross, Nicodemus did not flee nor abandon Jesus like most of the disciples of Jesus Christ. Very few men were brave enough to stand up for the Lord in public after the crucifixion. This man was one of them. He served the Lord well by bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes so that Jesus' body could be wrapped in linen with these spices as per the Jewish burial custom.
Jesus at his death caused Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus to manifest the courage and right action no matter what the circumstances for the sake of the Lord. If you were in place of these men at that would you have done the same for Jesus? It's a hard question to be honest. But the simple answer would be your actual actions in such times. However there should be nothing keeping you from standing up for Jesus Christ no matter where and when, if you truly believe that he is the Son of God. Yet again, were only courage and good works what Jesus woke these to men to by his death? Not at all, because by his agonizing death on the cross and his glorious resurrection from the dead he made available not just for them but for everyone who believe complete justification and salvation. You don't earn your salvation by your good works but yes once you accept your salvation by your faith in Jesus and his Gospel then by your good works you can indeed give glory to God. The power of the Lord Jesus in his death and resurrection goes beyond inspiring courage and good deeds. For it has healing for sick, forgiveness for the sinner, deliverance from the darkness, friendship with God and life everlasting. Blessed are those who have not seen Jesus and yet believe. Amen.
A message to those rich in the present age
As for the rich in this present age, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy. (1 Timothy 6:17)
Be careful of putting your trust in your riches. Moths destroy costly clothes. So do the rich get conned into buying things they don't need at all. Because of their abundance they neglect to give glory to God. But yet at the moment they avoid the Lord they become diligent to the wrong paths of life. There is only one life and then comes the afterlife. The legacy of the rich can only go this much. Perhaps their true friends and select relatives will remember them once they are no longer on earth. But if they choose the Lord God even to their last breath then the angels of God will remember to bring them to heaven. There they will be comforted by Jesus Christ and the saints of the Lord God forever and ever.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness,
that I may enter through them
and give thanks to the Lord.
20 This is the gate of the Lord;
the righteous shall enter through it.
21 I thank you that you have answered me
and have become my salvation.
22 The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone.
23 This is the Lord's doing;
it is marvelous in our eyes.
24 This is the day that the Lord has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Save us, we pray, O Lord!
O Lord, we pray, give us success!
26 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
We bless you from the house of the Lord. (Psalm 118:19-26)
The very person rejected by the scribes and the Pharisees has turned out to be the cornerstone which the builders rejected. Jesus of Nazareth is his name. He comes in the name of the Lord God of Hosts. He did not come into the world for his own glory but for the glory of the One who sent HIM. To those who believe this are the doors of salvation open in the land of the living.
28 And when he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. 29 When he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount that is called Olivet, he sent two of the disciples, 30 saying, "Go into the village in front of you, where on entering you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever yet sat. Untie it and bring it here. 31 If anyone asks you, 'Why are you untying it?' you shall say this: 'The Lord has need of it.'" 32 So those who were sent went away and found it just as he had told them. 33 And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, "Why are you untying the colt?" 34 And they said, "The Lord has need of it." 35 And they brought it to Jesus, and throwing their cloaks on the colt, they set Jesus on it. 36 And as he rode along, they spread their cloaks on the road. 37 As he was drawing near—already on the way down the Mount of Olives—the whole multitude of his disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen, 38 saying, "Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!" 39 And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, rebuke your disciples." 40 He answered, "I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out." (Luke 19:28-40)
It is truly wise to accept Jesus Christ as the king who comes in the name of the Lord. Not a king of earthly limitations but rather a king sent from God himself. Not everyone in the world accepts him as their king, the king of righteousness but for those who do, they will never be wrong. Therefore hold fast to your confession of faith which Jesus came to die for all sinners so that those who believe in him will not perish but have everlasting life.
37 "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing! 38 See, your house is left to you desolate. 39 For I tell you, you will not see me again, until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'" (Matthew 23: 37-39)
Jesus came for the Jews and also for the Gentiles but first for the Jews. Now remember that most of the disciples of Jesus when he walked on this earth were Jews. However not every Jew including the religious leaders had faith that he was sent by the Lord. This was because they didn't understand the Scriptures in the light of the Holy Spirit but were legalistic. Yet the Savior of the world has given them this, that if they acknowledge him as sent by the Lord, then their house will not longer be desolate. But even as their times come again, let everyone who is capable of breathing even now say 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord'. Amen.
True sayings
🌿"To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. To one without faith, no explanation is possible." – Thomas Aquinas
🌿"If, then, you are looking for the way by which you should go, take Christ, because He Himself is the way." – Thomas Aquinas
🌿"Man cannot live without joy; therefore when he is deprived of true spiritual joys it is necessary that he become addicted to carnal pleasures." – Thomas Aquinas
Control your tongue when you are bitter
"A gentle tongue is a tree of life, but perverseness in it breaks the spirit." (Proverbs 15:4)
"Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits." (Proverbs 18:21)
"Whoever desires to love life and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit." (1 Peter 3:10)
"If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person's religion is worthless." (James 1:26)
For some to control one's tongue when its pleasant all around is difficult. How much more difficult for them to keep it in check when their heart is filled with bitterness? As for the rest its still an achievement to control themselves when there is bitterness in their life.
However if we remember the words of the Bible then we should know the consequences of speaking the wrong things, the bad things and evil things. Let me make it real to you; there are considerable divorce cases going on which could have been prevented if either or both of the spouses would have not insulted each other by a very wide degree. Or there are people or children who keep running away from their parents because the parents love to speak evil words to them. Now, I don't justify divorce nor unnecessary running away on account of such things but yes I do strongly recommend control of one's tongue to prevent any further damage to oneself and others.
Some may say they didn't actually mean it when they said things that were hurtful to others. That's exactly my point. Don't say things that you don't mean to say in the first place and don't make any of your emotions whether happiness or bitterness as your excuse for the same!
Make a decision this day to use your tongue more wisely. The benefits are many; better relationships, peace in your dealings with others, living clean and giving glory to God all in all. It's up to you to control your speech but do pray to the Lord God for his healing and deliverance in this area.
You may pray like this:
O Lord God I ask through your Son Jesus Christ that I be holy as you are holy. Make my tongue an instrument of peace. Help me to speak words that are wise and life giving. Empower me by your Holy Spirit to not have be deceived by emotions whether they are mine or of others. In the name of Jesus, I cast out the spirit of discord and perversion of tongue from my life and totally reject the influence of all that is earthly, sensual and demonic. I pray that I be victorious in my life on the inside and the outside so that God be glorified all in all. Amen.
