His Hand Has to Be In It
God has to be in whatever we're wanting in order for it to succeed.
Looking at Deuteronomy 2, God told the Israelites that it was time for them to stop wandering in the hill country of Seir and to get moving from the area that they were in to another area in the wildness. God instructed them to turn North, but that meant they would have to pass through their "cousin's" land- the Edomites (descendants of Esau), the Moabites (descendants of Lot), and the Ammonites (descendants of Lot). But in passing through, they were not allowed to destroy or harm these peoples in any way.
God had a reason for not allowing them to touch or harm these people, He had promised these peoples their own land. God's will when it came to the land that the He would later give the Israelites was not any of the land of the Edomites, Moabites or Ammonites. The land that God would give them meant that His hand would be in it and no one could stop that blessing.
Have you desired something in life- a job, to move to a new city, marriage, to start a business? In order for it to truly work, God has to be in it. It doesn't mean that there won't be challenges along the way in obtaining these things. But, in order for them to truly work and succeed, God has to be in it.
But when the Israelites came to the Arnon Gorge, God told them:
God's hand was in this conquest and they won. When God's hand is in your conquest, you'll win every time.

The United States were denied a game winning goal in the 87th minute by Rangers midfielder Maurice Edu, but was called back to due to offsides…maybe. Nobody is entirely sure what the call was. Edu was clearly onsides and, if anything, Michael Bradley was being held down in the box for what should have been a penalty.
However, life isn't fair, and quite often, neither is football. Koman Coulibaly in his first officiation of a World Cup game put in a less than admirable display as he frequently missed calls and came up with bizarre bookings for both sides.
Jose Torres replaced Ricardo Clark in midfield after the latter failed to impress in any sense during the England game. Robbie Findley continued to start alongside Altidore for the second time in as many games.
In one of the most predictable actions, the United States allowed another early goal as Valter Birsa hit a cracker from 25 yards out that left Tim Howard rooted to the spot as it found the corner of the net. The United States defense left Birsa with far too much space and he let fly with a perfect strike to put the Slovenians in front.
The United States was out of sync for much of the half and only started to find rhythm in the 40th minute or so when Clint Dempsey played a teasing ball into the area and Miso Brecko made a vital interception with Landon Donovan lurking.
It was short lived however as the Slovenians broke on a counter attack and Novakovic slide the ball expertly to Zlatan Ljubijankic who did well to sneak past the offside trap and slip the ball under the onrushing Tim Howard to leave the Americans in a very bad place.
After the half, Bob Bradley replaced Jose Torres with Maurice Edu and Robbie Findley with Benny Feilhaber. Edu proved to be a great change, as the Rangers midfielder snuffed out attacks and played well for his time on the pitch. Feilhaber was decent. He didn't play badly but failed to make a serious impression on the game.
The Yanks started the half ideally as Landon Donovan, now in a more advanced position, attacked the goal and ripped a shot near post past Samir Handanovic. Then the game really begun.
The United States began continually pushing into the Slovenian half, which was dangerous considering how lethal the latter looked on the counter attack. Bradley made his last sub in the 80th minute by bringing on supersub Herculez Gomez for Oguchi Onyewu. This meant the States moved to a 3-4-3 and really began to attack.
This type of pressure paid dividends as the coach's son, Michael Bradley slotted after being played in by Jozy Altidore. Cherundolo looked long into the box and Altidore rose highest to nod the ball into the path of Bradley who almost put the ball over the goal as he smashed the ball into the net.
After storming back into the game, the Yanks pushed hard, but were constantly kept in check with the breaking Slovenians who constantly found space going forward with only 3 Americans in the back line.
It was all for nought however, as in the 86th minute, Jozy Altidore won a freekick on the edge of the box after being bundled over. Landon Donovan swung it in and Maurice Edu finished with aplomb from six yards out. The goal was quickly called for something, most probably offsides, but replays show that this was clearly not the case. Furthermore, replays suggest a penalty could have been given for how Bradley and others too were handled in the box during the kick.
The match dragged out with no more drama, but the biggest question will be asked of referee Koman Coulibaly, who was fairly bizarre all game. Will he face any repercussions? Time will tell.
The result means that should England beat Algeria today, the United States MUST win against Algeria on Wednesday and hope for a winner from England-Slovenia. If they draw, it will come down to goal difference and become a matter of how badly the United States could beat Algeria.

THE NSW Greens propose to reinstate the vendor duty introduced by the former Labor government in 2004 but abolished in 2005.
The 2.25per cent tax was payable by the seller of land where the sale value exceeded the purchase value by more than 12per cent. (The family home or farm was exempt).
They say reinstating the duty would raise $645million a year. But this is flawed thinking.
Last time round, the vendor tax stalled the real estate market.
Then the thriving investment property market, driven largely by mums and dads, turned into a ghost town overnight. That extra tax on the already over-taxed property market caused them to flee to other asset classes.
Scroll forward a decade and little has changed. The industry is still heavily taxed and much of the burden falls on owners.
In recent times, we've been given the message ''don't rely on a pension, invest to prepare for retirement''. And many mums and dads have done just that – buying investment properties to fund their own retirement and, in the process, providing much needed housing stock for renters.
Investors bear a heavy burden – stamp duty, lender's mortgage insurance, legal fees, interest, maintenance costs, property services costs, and capital gains tax when they sell.
Is it any wonder many see a more liquid, less costly share portfolio as a better bet?
But that doesn't increase housing supply.
Greens NSW MP John Kaye said, as before, the vendor duty would not apply to the family home or farm, and would help prevent first-home buyers being priced out by another housing bubble.
But that is simplistic, to say the least.
First-home buyers are not being priced out of the market by increasing property prices alone, but by general economic circumstance.
Those first-home buyers who choose to buy new property are supported into ownership through grants and stamp duty relief.
Those who are struggling to get onto the property ladder do so for reasons other than purchase price. The lack of employment, too little deposit, too many debts or not enough income to qualify for a loan are common reasons. Or they are resistant to buying new properties over old, better located ones that don't attract grants and stamp duty relief.
The Greens assume revenue would be in the order of $645million a year, over four years.
But that is assuming that investors continue to buy property. History shows they do not.
With unemployment now over 6per cent, the Reserve Bank has been confronted with a dilemma: how to stimulate job growth without fuelling a renewed property bubble in Sydney.
The Greens say their package offers a unique response: ensuring that lower interest rates and new spending will stimulate jobs, not speculation.
Stimulating jobs should be the focus of any policy, but it should not involve taxing those who are trying to plan for their retirement.
Jobs growth needs to be aimed at our youth, not at infrastructure schemes that benefit big business, which can then argue a need to employ foreign skilled labour at the expense of our own unemployed.
And while the Reserve Bank may have its hand on the interest rate brake, that is of no use in controlling Sydney's property market.
What will, though, is the market forces.
Major banks will eventually put a brake on that market by tightening lending criteria, so they are not exposed to too much risk.
Real Estate Institute NSW president Malcolm Gunning has warned that the government should not turn to the property market every time it needs money.
"The data from the last time we had a vendor duty is clear. The NSW government will be significantly worse off, as revenue from total tax collected will reduce because the property market will freeze up as it did last time," Mr Gunning said.
NSW Labor's policy to allow first-home buyers to pay stamp duty in instalments is also flawed. Many elect to roll that cost into their home loan. When interest rates rise, which they will, those young homeowners may find the looming stamp duty instalment difficult to pay, along with other regular housing costs such as insurance, rates and maintenance.
Deferring paying a tax that shouldn't be as high in the first place is not going to pave an easier path for next generation home owners.


text: Universal Symbols - Part 2 - Yes! We Even Have Instructions For That June 27, 2018 The folks at universal symbol headquarters put in a bit of extra work on this sign knowing how important it is. They added colors that are recognized almost everywhere as "Yes" and "No" in the event that someone might mistake the meaning of the symbol resulting in an unfortunate event for the person using the facility or the next person who enters. I encountered this sign at Arches National Park and initially questioned its need. Then I remembered how many citizens of other countries visit our national parks each year and that millions of people use slit trenches and not toilets. To the employees of the U. S. Park Service, I say "Thank you" for making these signs large and for posting them in conspicuous locations at your facilities.

Wild Sisters + Rachel Cole + Other loves/
Wild Sister #7 is here. It is about New Beginnings and I'm hearing from some of you that it is the best issue yet! I write about my three words this year, Ritual, Truth and Magic.
You can get your copy here and if you missed the last issues there is a bundle of 6 being sold for one low price.
If you know me, you know I adore this woman. I was with her on the Roots of She Autumn Tribe and she wrote a beautiful piece for the Holiday Joy Up. Rachel is coming to Providence!!! February 26th.
The details of the Well-Fed Woman Retreats are here.
- This quote one of the women in the joy up posted for us, "When a woman tells the truth she is creating the possibility for more truth around her."~Adrienne Rich
- Every time Heather from Mogul Mom posts on FB she is filled with such joy for the year ahead. Her latest, "butterflies. butterflies. butterflies." This is contagious. Imagine feeling this way about your life each day. Go for that.
- That I know what the next theme will be for The Joy Up coming in April. Gonna be good. Love clarity. The last two have made my heart swell.
- The comments from this giveaway are incredible. Grab a cup of tea and see how everyone is making space.
- I opened up my email and found a Sacred Mountain Reading from the gifted and gracious Daniel Collinsworth. The first words, "A rite of passage marks a time of some momentous change in life. If you have drawn this card, you are being asked to make note of the growth and change that is occurring because it will shape your future." Why yes. I'll sit with that.
- Smile anyway. Laugh anyway. (But really she had me at, I love cake. I love cake.) The Winter Tribe is amazing.
- This from Susannah. Beautiful.
- Everything Michelle. Especially this.
- Sitting at night and watching my three goldfish swim around in their beautiful new, huge glass bowl.
- Chloe's (my nine year old) new short hair cut. I'm totally going to follow and do the same.
- The moment after the sleep filled tantrum when sleep comes back to the little one. Sigh. Sick baby, there will be more. This moment is the recharge.
- The most beautiful note I received from a friend helping guide me to the beauty inside of being in the truth. One of the most beautiful gifts, she gave me permission to be quiet.
- The ease into which I can snuggle into Patrick's body, 18 years later.
- How peaceful my home is after all are asleep and I sit in the dark, lit only with candles, and connect back to me.
- All of you, for being here. For sharing this space. For the incredible magic that you bring to all that is around you.

CLOSING REMARKS: Final thoughts from Konstantin (5:22)
Focus on the Process by Kaizen Taki
As you
evaluate and start to establish your priorities
for the New Year I encourage you to pause and ask why you are wanting to do something. It's easy to want to jump right into things - for example start running to prepare for a marathon.
In your enthusiasm
don't skip the preparation needed
for a good baseline of health. Is the purpose about running, or taking care of yourself? After all, why are you wanting to create new fitness goals in the first place if not
to become healthy
I had
a friend
who went to a CrossFit gym multiple times a week and
ran regularly
in preparation for a marathon. They were unaware of how much dysfunction they really had. They trained regularly and pushed hard, so they
must be in good shape
, right?
Unfortunately it doesn't work like that.
Excessive tension
and a lack of sensitivity and awareness
can cause us to be unaware
of what our internal state really is. They were struggling with their training and had regular injuries. Frankly,
they were a wreck
I encouraged them to back up a step and
instead try walking first
. I asked them to just casually walk the distance they were running. No time constraints, no pressures, or worries of any kind. Just walk and
listen to how their body felt
When they attempted the walk they reported back that it was horrible. They didn't even get halfway through and
their body hurt so much that they had to stop
. If you can't even comfortably walk a certain distance, does it honestly make sense that you would be able to run that same distance without some sort of price to pay?
If you want to start running, then let's
get the legs healthy first
. Start with regular massage to the feet, legs, hips, and spine, plus regular walking. Take the time to remove excessive tension, improve circulation, and get the joints healthy.
Once walking can be done easily without creating pain or soreness, start alternating walking and short distances of running.
Slowly replace walking
with more running until you are running the desired distance.
This approach will
take longer
to develop. But once you reach your desired goal it will
truly belong to you
. Just because you stumble across the finish line doesn't mean the process of how you got there was beneficial for you.
Part of what makes changing your health so difficult is we suffer through a process towards a goal that is too far away.
We get distracted
and define success by whether or not we finish the race in a certain amount of time, regardless of the actual physical cost.
Instead of
enjoying the process
of getting healthy, we accidentally take something that was supposed to be good for us and turn it into something that is destructive in order to achieve a very narrow and superficial goal.
I think the trick to being consistent and patient is to learn to enjoy the day-to-day process of
improving our lives
. The process in Konstantin's course can help you build
quality time
with friends and family. Enjoy the feeling of getting out of bed when your joints are
. To
feel empowered
and to improve your health,
get the course now
rebuild yourself
from the inside out.

Okay, so the beauty room has been knocked into some kind of order but I kept stopping to take pictures of long forgotten about things. I'm too much of a magpie, clearly, but they do chart the beauty road I've travelled so I'm reluctant to get rid of them.
This is really tricky to capture on camera, but it is a clear gloss that has a 3D hologram effect running through it so that the white double ccs look like they surface to the top of the gloss.. very clever, and this was from Autumn 2003. It is very rare indeed.
These funny biscuity things from Pupa must be about ten years old.. I'd never seen anything like them: they're lip and cheek colours.
From 2004, the Chanel Artist Palette at the time cost £29.50… how very reasonable!! I actually bought this in Las Vegas and it is still in the most immaculate condition as I just couldn't bring myself to use it.
This is the Dior Princess Ring released in the summer of 2005.
This is a very rare Christian Lacroix face powder palette.. I have no clue where I got it.. I have absolutely no memory of it at all!

Gosh! they all look so amazing!
The Gouaches de Chanel palette is the only makeup item I regret not purchasing, every time I see it I feel like kicking myself.
Although at that time it felt like a lot of money especially as I was under the impression each tube cost £29.50!
The Gouaches de Chanel looks amazing. In 2004 I was still 13 and my mother had just pushed concealer my way! I can't imagine what they would charge for it now.
I absolutely love all of it! The Chanel gloss is really cool, and the Pupa colors are just adorable.
I remember the Lacroix, it was one of sephora's special designer collaborations. around spring 2003 or 2004!

There is no such thing as a common operating picture
My reasoning is that a common picture implies a common understanding and point of view. This means that to achieve this ideal scenario, everyone has to have the same experiences, biases, beliefs, and circumstances. This concept has gotten traction amongst emergency managers however, it is almost never realized.
Every person interprets information differently, even if it is the prima facie, the exact same information. There have been numerous cases where two witnesses to a crime will provide authorities with a completely different and often opposing record of events. It turns out that we all see things through our own lenses that act as filters based on personal bias and experiences. Your interpretation of the incident will be completely different that of the other people involved. So, the picture can no longer be said to be common.
Consider the orchestra. Musicians read the same sheet of music but they all play different instruments. It is the same venue, masterpiece, and conductor and yet the experiences will vary between people of different ages, knowledge levels and even from different locations in the building. There is a personal understanding of what is supposed to happen but to get it right, for everyone to share a common understanding, the conductor must serve as a messenger for the composer. They must understand the music and convey it through the movement of the baton so that the musicians in the orchestra understand it perfectly
Become the conductor and not the passive performer. You have a masterpiece to execute for the audience. It is not good enough to display sheets of music for you musicians. You need to manage the speed, flow, and direction of everyone involved. Your primary responsibilities are to the unify the responders, set the tempo, execute clear preparations and beats, listen critically and shape the sound of the ensemble, and to control the interpretation and pacing of the music. Use a baton to signal to them. A baton, not a sheet of music!
"Become the conductor not the performer"
Remember, not every performer will be able to see your gestures. They may not even be in the same building and may have never picked up an instrument before. They may be in danger and in a high-risk situation. Make sure you can still deliver the composers message with context and relevancy.

Herman's Amazing Direct Hair Colour
Herman's Amazing Direct Hair ColourHerman's Amazing Direct Hair Colour comes in an excellent range of high pigment colours, all of which can be mixed together allowing you to create your perfect shade with ease.
Herman's is not tested on animals, is ammonia free, Vegan, and comes in 115ml pots.
Please note that for hygiene reasons we cannot accept returns on this item except in the unlikely event of a manufacturing fault.
* Dyes usually last between 8-12 washes and fade out gradually over time. Dry shampoo can help you to prolong the colour and using a good quality conditioner can help slow fading a little.
* Herman's is Ammonia Free, and Vegan.
* Darker shades may give a sheen of colour to darker hair but we recommend pre-lightening for the best results.
* Dye results cannot be guaranteed always try a strand test to check possible results.
* Always follow manufacturers instructions fully.
Helpful Hints:
Shampoo the hair with a pH acid balanced shampoo, this will give the hair the correct acid balance, allowing Herman's hair colour to achieve the best results. Hair should be washed / clean and dry before dying. We recommend using shampoo but not conditioning before dying. Generously apply to hair, starting at your roots. We recommend dividing your hair into sections to get the entire length of your hair. Feel free to massage it in, it will not damage your hair or your scalp. Processing time is 15-30 minutes, a plastic cap will contain the heat on the hair helping to achieve a better result. Rinse the hair thoroughly away from the face with warm water until all the residue dye has been removed. You can optionally shampoo to reduce color bleeding. Condition thoroughly. Herman's will take faster, and last longer, on chemically treated hair eg permed or bleached. If more than one colour is applied the hair must be washed and dried separately, greater care must be taken when partially colouring lighter hair.
* Do wear rubber or plastic gloves when applying the hair colour.
* Do use vaseline, petroleum jelly or baby oil around the hairline and ears, to avoid staining skin.
* As with all hair colours, we advise a swatch test first.
* Do not mix Herman's with peroxide.
* Do not use on eyelashes or eyebrows
* Do not use shampoo with conditioner.
No comments yet, maybe you can fix that.

Today it is undeniable that the competition on the real estate market continue to rage. With the expansion of the digital sector, agencies are no longer the only ones on the market. Buyers have increasingly more online platforms to list and find offers in line with their needs. That is why the window display appears as a way to attract potential clients .
So how do you set yourself apart? What technique should you implement?
Like any other commercial gesture, it is necessary for the real estate agent to market these ads through image. Indeed the picture is the central part of putting the property up for sale. Attractive photographs will allow the agent to see the rate of clicks on these ads increase but also boost the display window communication.
Let's put ourselves in the shoes of a potential buyer who, when it comes to implementing an important life project, will be confronted to tens or hundreds of ads before choosing only a small number to visit. With limited time to find the rare diamond, and a large variety of choice, he will quickly put aside the propositions with no or low quality pictures. Therefore, the customer must be able to imagine themselves in the space and be impatient to visit it with just one glance. In this sense, the ads must be vectors of emotions. Here, window display can be crucial.
Window display : Use Real Estate photography
So why not maximize the number of visits and have a successful sale over a short period of time thanks to real estate photography? This discipline must be an integral part of the agency's brand. The real estate agent should not only limit himself to selling the property but should also take into account all of the parameters and actions to be done in order to meet his or her objective but also that of the owner: selling. For the owner, highlighting the property will only make them more confident and reassure them when it comes to the agent handling their property. This is why, using real estate photography to optimize you window display may be relevant even essential.
Unfortunately, it remains an aspect widely ignored by many agents, mastering real estate photography techniques is an essential pillar of the job. The real estate agent who wishes to improve on his or her skills in this area must practice and get the necessary material to reveal the full potential of each property on the market. VitrineMedia, expert of window display is happy to share it's special guide on real estate photography to accompany in this process.

Amy Martin got in touch with us to tell us about Birmingham Soup:
What is SOUP?
SOUP is a democratic experiment in micro-funding.
Each month we hold a Birmingham SOUP event at Impact Hub Birmingham, you bring a dish to share (if you want) and pay a suggested donation of £5 or more on the door.
Audiences hear pitches from four pre-selected proposals working on projects that benefit communities in Birmingham. Over a potluck/picnic-style SOUP dinner, attendees cast their vote for the project they want to help fund.
The project with the most votes goes home with all of the money raised from the door. Winners come back to a future SOUP to tell the audience how their project went, how they used the money and what impact the project had on the community.
SOUP is a powerful tool to start conversations, practise democracy and fund new projects/people/ideas in our city. There are many models on how to do it but we follow the Detroit SOUP method which means that all the events are run by a team of volunteers.
I started Birmingham SOUP as an antidote to austerity. Birmingham has been hugely affected by the cuts to local services. This is a small but powerful way for a community to directly support one and other and a super accessible way for people to access money for projects with social impact.
So far we've raised £2200 for 7 creative projects in Birmingham, previous winners have included Elliot Lord who engineered and constructed special cardboard beds for the homeless that raises them from the floor to give them a better night's sleep. Artist Mohammed Ali who was fundraising for a new arts centre in Sparkbrook. Second Pedals who re-commission second hand cycles, a creative project in response to the refugee crisis called Beyond Borders. The Danny Campaign who helps homeless people keep in touch with their loved ones and Tasty Waste a campaign and workshops about unnecessary food waste and healthy eating.
We are really excited about the potential of Birmingham SOUP and would like to expand our reach to more people, we are currently seeking pitch proposals for our event on June 9th: https://birminghamsoup.co.uk/
Deadline for pitch proposals is 2nd June. The application process is really simple – just 5 questions on an online form here: https://birminghamsoup.co.uk/submit-a-proposal/
Thank you for taking the time to read this email, please check out the website for more information: https://birminghamsoup.co.uk

How to Protect Your Rights If You Are Arrested (Part 1)

Being arrested and accused of any crime can be as frustrating and stressful as it is frightening, particularly if there seems to be a lot of evidence against you and/or if you have never dealt with the criminal system in the past. In such cases, knowing how to deal with police and assert your rights will be crucial to protecting yourself and building your defense cases, especially if you are later officially charged by prosecutors. Here is a closer look at what you should do if you are stopped or arrested by police in order to protect your rights:
- Tip 1 – The less you say, the better: Whether you are walking down the street or driving your car, when you are stopped by police, you are obligated to tell them your full legal name; however, aside from that, you do not have to tell them anything. Although you may be eager to explain yourself and tell your side of the story when you are stopped or arrested by police, it's crucial that you restrain yourself and don't say anything that could later be used against you.Even if you don't think that anything you may say could be remotely incriminating, when you start talking to police, they may be able to use interrogation tactics on you, get you emotional or angry and, as a result, get you to say things that you may not mean or want to say.
- Tip 2 – Be polite: While you should not answer many of police officers' questions, you do not have to be rude in the process and should, in fact, do your best to be polite. This is especially important if, after you have been stopped by police, the officer decides to arrest you because the more resistant you are, the more likely it is that you will be charged with additional crimes, like resisting arrest. Although you may be angry in these cases, do your best to keep your cool, as it can be crucial to your defense in the future.
Be sure to check out the upcoming Part 2 of this blog for additional tips regarding what you should do to protect your rights in the event you are arrested and/or charged with any crime.

Researchers Identify New Cause of Brain Bleeds
Source: University of California
Summary: A team of researchers has provided, for the first time, evidence that blood deposits in the brain may not require a blood vessel tear.
Bleeding in the brain, identified as cerebral microbleeds (CMB) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), are tiny deposits of blood in the brain that are associated with increasing age, cerebrovascular diseases, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease. CMBs are a common cause of cognitive decline and contribute to a risk of stroke. Using MRI, cerebral microbleeds are found in nearly 20% of people by age 60, and nearly 40% of people by age 80. Direct examination of human brain tissue samples shows that brain bleeding is almost universal by age 70. A team of researchers from the University of California found that brain endothelial cells, the cells that line blood vessels of the brain, have the capacity for engulfing red blood cells and depositing them outside the blood vessels and into the substance of the brain, without requiring a disruption of the vasculature. The study findings were published in the journal Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience.
Much of the new research, which was done in collaboration with the Keck Graduate Institute, was based in large part on previous work done by Fisher related to cerebral bleeds and how they are often an undetected cause of dementia and how they may develop after concussions. "It has long been believed that a tear or rupture of a brain blood vessel is the cause of cerebral microbleeds," said Fisher, a professor of neurology at the UCI School of Medicine. "While more confirmatory work needs to be done, our study points to an entirely new direction in efforts to eliminate brain bleeding and its consequences."

And I think that is a good thing. Finally some balance and only good stuff is in my exchange. Im delighted.
My friends are the best, and my love interest showed me some love back, and my hostfamily is so extremely nice and great (LOVE my hostsis), my class is better and i love my teachers.

The Battle to Read Deeply
You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them. Ray Bradbury said that in 1994, several years before the proliferation ... Read More
By Andrew Peterson •
After watching this video three times in a row, we (at the Centricity retreat) talked for about an hour about what we learned from June Taylor about art. If you have time, watch it twice, then post a comment about what jumped out at you about hearing this woman talk about her work. There's a lot to be learned here. (Thanks to John Farkas for the great discussion.)
As a singer-songwriter and recording artist, Andrew has released more than ten records over the past fifteen years. His music has earned him a reputation for writing songs that connect with his listeners in ways equally powerful, poetic, and intimate. He has also followed his gifts into the realm of publishing. His books include the four volumes of the award-winning Wingfeather Saga.
"The way in which I can do the very best is to keep the scale small and to be very intimate and very detailed."
I'm reminded by a line from one of Wendall Berry's essays in Home Economics, "Everything in scale." I think our capitalistic society often forgets that. I think a lack of scale is very harmful to art.
Like her old books about fruits, we have an old book about fruit, the Bible. And like the gardens that speak to her about what is ripe and when to pick the fruit and what side of the tree to pick it from, God has put us here in this huge garden, and as we walk through it, it is our job to look for what He wants us to see and use that for His glory. The more we know about God, the easier this becomes. We learn to use what He gives us with very little waste. We learn that the way is not about more stuff. We learn that teaming up with one or two people to do the tasks He has placed right at our elbows can be even more important than larger-scale missions. We learn how to apply what He teaches us and the experiences He has given us to share the fruit that He has gifted us with that not only nourishes others but also imparts others with the sense that someone cared enough to take the time to make it especially for them and show them how it can compliment even the pig on their plate.
The FIRST thing that jumped out at me, of course, was that I would sure like to try some of her jam!
Very, very beautiful an inspiring. (not to mention mouth-watering)
What I initially observe is, what may seem mundane or ordinary, can certianly be the very beauty of God and until it is showcased or focused upon, so as to see every detail, it may go unnoticed. Taking time to focus on small peices of God's word or His nature or the fruit of His creation, should stop us in our steps and help us to move into awe of Him. I am speaking of the fruit June uses and of June herself, being one of His creations as well.
Wow, so much to comment on… I can see how you spent an hour discussing the video and what June Taylor does. I'll limit myself to just two things that jumped out at me…
the first time through, the last line really stuck in my head, "It's just fruit, eat it and have great memories". It represents, in a way, the point of the book of Ecclesiastes. We can't catch the wind, and it is futility to try… but we *can* enjoy life, and experience it to the fullest when we look at it from the right perspective… when we don't try to do things with it that we shouldn't do… when we don't idolize life. Or jam.
The second time through it struck me how much attention Ms. Taylor pays to the beauty and… detail of her work at every stage. At different points in the video she talks specifics from the plant to the jar.
-She pays attention and self-consciously notices what is blooming/ripening at the same time, and uses those things together.
-She examines each piece of fruit, and only uses the very best, with no blemishes on them.
-As she was cooking some fruit, she points out how beautiful the colors are.
-Finally, after she has canned the product, she makes a point to say how beautiful the fruit is, and how it really should be packed beautifully as well.
I really liked how she really pours herself into every step, and how every step rewards her with beauty.
Ooohhh…I loved that. It was beautiful to watch. Many thanks to my husband for scooting me on over here to watch.
Her attitude was great: enjoy making it, and do your best, but don't take yourself too seriously. It's just food.
The first thing I did after watching this was forward it to my music team at church. And then I grabbed a banana.
There are so many good things to take away from this. Her patience and deliberation with her craft is inspiring and convicting.
"Nature presents you with goodies." That's great. We are most times too busy and disracted to see the presentation. Here is a woman who has heard that calling and has responded in a beautiful way.
So much of this goes against everything that our American industrial machine preaches at us everyday. Wow.
And now I want to move out to the country and plant a garden.
(Man, I gotta start reading some Wendell Berry)
"You can't formulate that into something that is hard and fast, if you do than you standardize, and thats essetional what industry does, it standardizes."
Ah, I'm going to go sit under an apple tree and ponder that statment for the next hour.
I've been thinking about modern medicine all day and how its a business, plain and simple. Money runs it. Physicians work for money. Drugs cost money. Research to do new things costs money. I think when compassionless capitalism starts to shape medicine, there are problems.
Some people think the answer is for government to pay for it. Thats a costly solution, but it has a very glaring problem. It merely treats a symptom. What happened to doctors who want to be servants, who want to help, who want to aide those suffereing and fight the evil that is disease?
A future doctor myself, I think that we could take a lesson from her. You cannot mass produce medical care. It doesn't work. Something is lost when medicine becomes a business. That something is quality. Concern. Compassion. It must go into every patient. This field can only be fixed from the bottom up. The logistics of how to do this I do not know, but I am sure hat it does not center around money.
http://junetaylorjams.com/ has a different stop action short. It combines the themes she explores in this video. What struck me was this woman has a calling, a vocation, not just a job. That's what I strive for as well — even though I work for a very large global entity that doesn't stop me from similar experiences in my vocation.
I also enjoyed her attitude. She is curious about the past and how it's been done before. Not just "those who fail to study history are doomed to repeat it" but I got a sense that she is carrying forward the rich traditions of those artists that preceded her.
She also is humble — its just jam, eat it; enjoy it. But at the same time she is not just "canning preserves." She thoughtfully considers each task in the process. It's not just a catch phrase that love and care go into her products.
To paraphrase a description of a conductor I once heard on a Father's Day tribute: "She takes her work seriously, but does not take herself seriously." That's pretty cool when the company is named after her.
one line says it all: "the garden will inform me."
SUCH beauty. thank you, andrew.
p.s. i love her purple eyeshadow. it makes me listen more intently.
My first reaction to watching this clip was, "Is it worth it?" "Does her jam really taste that much better than jam you could buy at the grocery store?" Then I realized that it's not only the artist who has to have perceptive taste but also the one who digests the art. In order to receive truth and beauty, one has to be trained to differentiate between what will suffice and what is truly good. So my question is, "How do we teach people to aquire a taste for truth and beauty?"
What stands out to me is her passion and love for every part of the process. How absorbed she is in it. Thinking about the flavors and textures when the jam is eaten. Mulling them over in her mind. Looking at the colors and what will look beautiful together. Finding out as much as she can about how people have done this in the past. Being open to combinations that are outside of the norm. Doing the work herself. Deciding on packaging that says more about the jams and preserves, and where they have come from, than just what flavor it is. This is her passion.
And that jam is temporary–it is meant to be consumed. It is beautiful food, but foods purpose is to be eaten. She would be disappointed if noone experienced those flavors and textures and colors that she has poured so much of herself into. The jam is temporary but the memories are permanent.
I need to make more memories of jam.
"How do we teach people to acquire a taste for truth and beauty?"
Breann that's the million dollar question. I guess that's where the saying "you can lead a horse to water but you can make him drink" came from. I think the teaching will come in experiencing good art versus bad art.
Thirsty people will drink sand in want of an alternative. The writer of Proverbs is instructive by portraying Wisdom and Folly as two women inviting people to eat and drink. The distinction between the two is the means in which the meal is prepared, how the house is built and how the table is set. Most people today would say the end justifies the means, but the means are just as important from a biblical perspective. I consume far too many things without considering this point. Food is the least of my worries in this context, but it is the most visceral way to make me consider the cost of my consumption (i.e. I can see the results of my poor food choices). 🙂
Truth and beauty cost us something so many people will take the cheap alternatives because the cost is too much and the results much harder to see in the mirror. In the case of jams, perhaps I'd go with Smuckers or Bama for every day use but for a special meal or as a special gift I'm now thinking June's product would fit the bill — i.e. be worth the cost.
Its the same with our art. Our culture is inundated with cheap or commoditized art or art fit for a specific sub-culture (not just Christian, but its ironic that we've fallen into that same mode). It takes some effort to find artists who deliver their art with the same personal humility and professional passion (to steal a Jim Collins line) that June has with her work. The artists who work like June, teach people by their art and artistry. In other words it's the art of living that is the lesson. How would Jesus live? Not what would Jesus live, or drive or paint, sing or preserve?
That's what I took from this woman's testimony about making jelly. Imagine if we all took this approach to our work and by extension our life. As Christians, we are called to do so. It would be a much more winsome approach and would likely cause the action and our reaction that Peter points out in 1 Peter 3:15.
"There's an intimate knowledge by doing."
That stood out to me immediately. It's good advice for those who grow deaf to the steady call of artistry. Get your hands dirty!
On second thought/watch, the phrase also sounds like good medicine for anyone who condescendingly erupts "I could do that, what's the big deal?" when they see something beautifully simple.
Unfortunately, I can't get the video to load, but it sounds great.
I check out the rabbit room often, and have been listening to the streaming album quite a bit.
I'm just getting started on a blog of my own: http://www.boundandfree.wordpress.org . Check out my post on Love & Thunder.
I'm still finding my voice in the blogging world, but I think it is starting out o.k.
What i learned from watching this video: I need to get my hands on some of that jelly!
And that art is the single most enjoyable way to teach and learn and explore and question and exeperience and touch and feel and smell and taste the things of heaven.
What first jumped out was her passion for what she does and how she noticed everything. She saw it all. I might be tempted to look at a diamond and see its beauty and texture, but beyond that, it casts light. What about the texture of the light that is thrown off that diamond and onto the objects around it. The light crawls across what it hits. Maybe that is a little out there, but it struck me.
Also the way in which she talked about it and the words used were like she carved them out of an orange peel and you could roll them around in your hand and really feel it.
And then the jester that also resides in my head exclaimed "WHATEVER YOU DO, PLEASE, PLEASE DON'T CALL IT JELLY!!!!" Sorry Josh, I was thinking of the commercial for that All fruit stuff, not you.
I recently read about a conversation a Christian had with an evolutionist.
On a plane, recently, I sat by a biologist. Actually, he called himself a "systematic,
evolutionary microbiologist"! He was returning from what seemed to me to be very
like an Indiana Jones type expedition in the Caribbean. It was, in fact, a research trip
dedicated to studying various species of plants.
Now, I admit, I am not a big plant man. Talking about plants, especially rare
species that the average person does not even know exist, is not my idea of fun. But
this guy was so excited I could not help but get caught up in his enthusiasm. Far
from being dry and crusty, this man had fire in his belly and was absolutely thrilled
with his work.
He launched into this story about plants that were on the verge of extinction,
how important they were, what could be done to save them and why we must save
them. He just could not bear the thought that we had already lost and were now
losing whole species of plants to extinction. He even pulled out his napkin and drew
diagrams and charts. I must say, I learned more botany in that stretch of time than I
had learned in years of schooling.
When he finished, I leaned over and asked one simple question. "Where," I
asked, "did you get your passion for plants?" It caught him off-guard and he looked
at me like I had a third eye. I said, "I mean, it is not every day that you meet
someone who has such a deep burden for the welfare of plants. I am just curious as
to its origin. Did you grow up around botanists? Are your parents botanists? Did
you just decide one day that you were going to love plants?" He said that he had
never really thought about it much. And we both said, laughingly, "It probably just
But then I pulled out my napkin and drew three interrelated circles, with the
Father written in one circle and the Son and Spirit in the others. I pointed to the
circle with the Son's name in it and said, "I know the origin of your deep passion for
plants. There is only one human being in the universe who really cares for plants.
He is delighted in his Father's creation, burdened for its welfare and preservation.
He knows the plants by name, every one of them. And I know who you are. You
are a participant in Jesus Christ's passion for his Father's creation.
"That fire in your belly is not yours. It does not have its origin in you. It comes
from Jesus Christ. He puts his passion for his Father's plants in you. He humbly
shares his delight in them, his burden for their welfare, his desire for their wholeness
with you through his invisible Spirit. And you are living in it. You go to sleep at
night, wake up in the morning, and work all day in his concerns and creative ideas.
There is far more going on in your life than you ever imagined. You are living in
Jesus' life, participating in the relationship that Jesus Christ has with his Father in the
fellowship of the Spirit. You live in the circle of the Triune life of God and you are
not sure that God even exists!"
This video reminded me that God likes fruit and "although He's glad for the fruit, its me that He loves."
"There's an intimate knowledge by doing." That jumped out at me as a confirmation of George MacDonald's writing. He wrote that men have often sought to understand God rather than obey Him (and to trust Him is to obey Him). The only way to enlighten the understanding is to faithe, which expresses itself through love. When we obey God through faith, we are given understanding. We've got to step in faith, and keep stepping, in order to have true (and I mean that in the sense of aiming a bow and arrow) understanding.
It's just like playing the banjo. A person can read all about it, and become an "expert" on the various methods for learning. But until he sits down to actually DO, his knowledge is merely theoretical and, for all practical intents and purposes, useless.
I saw the Book of Kells at Trinity College, Dublin quite a few years ago when we were playing in Dublin (I love days off overseas).
"You can get fruit from two different sides of a tree and it be different."
She said at least a dozen things that jumped out at me, but this is the one that stuck the most. This reminds me that my willingness to "faithe" as Ron calls it is the variable that will define the fruit that I will bear.
That video is teeming with insight…as are all the comments. Great stuff. Even from the first line "Nature presents you with goodies, and you have to know how to relate to them," that video is loaded. I gain more each time I watch it.
I'm curious, Andrew…what were some highlights from your discussion on this at the retreat? (and thanks for bringing the video to our attention!)
Call me a weirdo, but It somehow stuck out that she said "pigs were meant for fruit"…. its like a childrens fairytale about a pig who learns about the magic spell to be turned into a tree just ran through my head.

Who Are You?
God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.- 2 Corinthians 5:21
So many of us are insecure and struggle with an identity crisis because we don't know who we are.
Do you know who you are?
Stop trying to find your identity in who you know, through your academics, where you work, what you wear, what you own, ...this list could keep going.
What are Your thoughts about yourself? How do You feel about yourself?
Stop comparing yourself to others! It is not God's will for you to be insecure and live in fear.- 1 John 4:18
Be All You Are In Christ!
When you know who you are in Christ you will be secure in your worth as a child of The King.
I have a desire in my heart to share devotions and scriptures to help people grow spiritually. I am humbled by the way God has used me to share Jesus with others and help people and I know if I ever stop I will always have value because I am a child of God and He loves me.
My identity is not through this ministry. I am more because of who I am in Christ! My worth and value is not based on what I do. My value is in knowing I am created by God to be His. I am secure in His love because I know Him, I have a relationship with Him, and He is the lover of my soul. His love is not something you earn. It's a gift you receive through faith. We are all equally valuable to God.-Philippians 3:3
You are a unique creation! Value and respect who God made you to be. His love is not based on who you are, it's based on who He is. God loves you and has a great plan for you. Trust Him and everything in life will work out well.
Stop putting confidence in your flesh! Be confident in who you are in Christ!
Know who you are!
