confusion

He who knows he is a fool is not the biggest fool; he who knows he is confused is not in the worst confusion. The man in the worst confusion will end his life without ever getting straightened out; the biggest fool will end his life without ever seeing the light. If three men are traveling along and one is confused, they will still get where they are going - because confusion is in the minority. But if two of them are confused, then they can walk until they are exhausted and never get anywhere - because confusion is in the majority.

Confused? Confusion is good. It__ an excellent place to learn something new from.

Times of great calamity and confusion have been productive for the greatest minds. The purest ore is produced from the hottest furnace. The brightest thunder-bolt is elicited from the darkest storm.

I observe something.When the angel of the Lord appeared to Cornelius, he also appeared to Peter. The two parties involved.Cornelius stared at him in fear. __hat is it, Lord?_ he asked.The angel answered, __our prayers and gifts to the poor have come up as a memorial offering before God. Now send men to Joppa to bring back a man named Simon who is called Peter. He is staying with Simon the tanner, whose house is by the sea.__hen the angel appeared to Peter... While Peter was still thinking about the vision, the Spirit said to him, __imon, three men are looking for you. So get up and go downstairs. Do not hesitate to go with them, for I have sent them.__gain, when the angel of the Lord appeared to Saul on his way to Damascus, he also appeared to AnaniasAs the angel of the Lord appeared to Saul, __ho are you, Lord?_ Saul asked.__ am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,_ he replied. __ow get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.__hen the angel of the Lord also appeared to Ananias and told him, __o to the house of Judas on Straight Street and ask for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is praying.In a vision he has seen a man named Ananias come and place his hands on him to restore his sight.__hen the angel of the Lord appeared to Mary, the mother of Jesus, he also appeared to Joseph.And the angel said to her "Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus." and the angel also told her about her cousin, saying "behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren"The angel then appeared to Joseph saying "Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit."Again, after the angel had told Mary about her cousin, the angel appeared to Zechariah, the husband of Mary's cousin saying:"Fear not, Zachariah: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elizabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John."Indeed God is not an author of confusion

One way to be sure you are not making the wrong decision, is to lookvertically upwards

He was troubled; this brain, so limpid in its blindness, had lost its transparency; there was a cloud in this crystal.

See, it's not that I'm jealous of others. I just don't understand why they can be happy and I can't.

_Look, I__ real sorry about Cheryl, I know you loved her a lot,_ Mandy apologized gloomily. __t__ wrong that people have to keep killing off Pollution.___t__ alright, I think she wants to be remediated,_ Alecto told her calmly, though his grief-stricken and depressed expression said more to Mandy than his words did. __ou don__ have to forget Cheryl, no matter what Mearth said to you,_ Mandy pointed out. __eople shouldn__ be forced to forget what they love, or to just get over the death of what they love. Cheryl was your friend and nobody can make you forget her if you don__ want to.

I want to say more, but don't know what the words are supposed to be. I feel such a tenderness for these vulnerable night-time conversations, the way words take a different shape in the air when there's no light in the room.

When the person you love can't see your love for them beneath the painful things you say when they reject you, remember this: Love is blind.

Words were only an approximation of meaning. The meaning escaped between the words, dissolved, disappeared, like fog fading away between iron bars.

Today words curve around my vision,Stumbling from my parched coreTo soak again those strands of silence.

In the dark, words get lost.

I believe God himself will someday debate with and answer every objection arrogant men can come up with against him; I believe he will humble us and humor himself. Know-it-alls, pseudo-intellectuals, militant anti-theists, for Christ's sake, or rather their own sake, best beware of getting roasted by their own medicine. Ah! Our delusions of trying to argue against an omniscient Creator.

True belief is movement toward God even in the midst of confusion or frustration or fear.

You are believing not in your god but in yourself if your god knows no better than you do...and yet, in this alone, I am afraid, you have already been fooling yourself.

Samsa certainly had no idea what lay ahead. He was in the dark about everything: the future, of course, but the present and the past as well . What was right, and what was wrong? Just learning how to dress was a riddle.

Nightmares are not dreams. A good dream does not leave the dreamer in darkness, confusion and terror. Start having dreams, not nightmares!
