The Force can lead without upset or war. Tools can be used for any purpose and any side. A Modern day Jedi-like the Force- can achieve with no parade, boast, or pride because its the natural way. The Force never achieves by fore or rush. Things spoil early when methods are present. The force isn't like that...it lasts.

This week if you will, think about this -

Everlasting

Adding The Force to things changes the outcome all the time but : that means sometimes slowing down or even stopping some things - not everything but SOME. So many times I get stuck here - when some one recommends slowing down or even stopping for me it drives me nuts. Adding the Force can often mean paying attention to specific things ... think about that . Changing outcomes of things can take ONE small act. Poof. Just one ...

How we win matters. Why?

Something to think about my Temple.
May the Force we seek - we share - and we serve find your and be with you.
Feel free to on me or reach out or just hit me anytime , I’m still 100 percent avalinle most time.

Monday mornings is my - 1230 Temple time hang around and logistics n such. Need a good word or an encouraging one : Sunday AND Monday mornings I troll our discord - catch me if ya need me anytime.

I am a Jedi


It is my choice

Is it yours ?

Then, we are one with the Force as it is one with us.

That doesn’t blow your mind ?

Something to think about this week....


IF we acted like that - when we do - things change.

Does it need to make the news ....

The choices made that are not in the news tend to have the long term effect and harmonize better (or worse) through the Force. They are often not the sudden halt that is forgotten at the next stop.

Much love,
Kobos

Me and “the brother “ have a saying often when we begin to speak of the Hero’s Journey or in self reflective type of things - and n the case of Hero’s such as Hercules or these type of “big” names - the question arrives from Johny -

“ any one ask Hercules if he was alright ?”

Hero is the main character of the story. The subject. You. Being the Hero or main subject - are you ok ?

Can ya take some time to reflect if YOU are ok. Take some time to reflect on that. Please Jedi. It is just as important to ASK others within or without our circle - hey Hercules - Hey Han Solo - you ok? You ok big time ? Hey Harry - Hey Gandalf - Ender ... ??? Bruce - Clark - hey Father - hey son - hey significant other *waves ! Hey clergy - hey pastors - warriors - gardeners - hey brothers - hey moms knights - students - Council - Hey dads! Hey y’all - how are YOU - what you are now - how ya doing?

Chewie survived the span of movies - ever ask Chewie is he was ok?
Use this as a reminder to check what’s present and strengthen it a bit-

If not me- reach out some where. As a modern day Jeddist it is our gift and our right to be able to think and take time for ourselfs and others.

Hey Jedi - u ok?

Pm me - directly - Discord or here or directly if you like.

You are not alone.

An Oasis is fertile.

So many times we as Modern day Jedi have these parallels ideas. Parallel to the world in views and actions. One of these is the oasis idea. Being ready to minister or help ISNT easy freinds and as Jedi it can be a bit more difficult. If a oasis is a buffet of things others need then the need to have them and organize them is there as well. Often times in life it’s never a one stop shops type of thing. Being a “blessing” or the answer can have a better benifit from organization.
We all wanna give. Something ——- some days if just by being present we as Modern day Jedi can create the oasis we needed. That’s one of the Forces we share often. That glow or need to be a help. Be ready and organized - or just be present - either way - a full glass can be shared or emptied by us or life but an empty one can be filled again.
The oasis factor -
Funny thing in modern day Jediism hu?
May the Force be with you as you seek , search and share it with others.

In everyday life - we take the leafs of the things in our space. Not every one is represented here -
Avocado, bamboo, lemongrass, cedar, cactus, olive, Willow, marijuana, purslane , three seeded mercury, Holly, tomatoes, biscuits, maple, fig, Persian silk tree, peaches - to name a few ...


We place them in a brown bag and when ready we burn them togeather and try to be in a mood of thankfulness for all of the things present and a part of our life.
Being able to be - “right now “ or in the moment is something almost all Modern day Jedi have some type of practice for and to pass on.

I know of a person who began their day by thanking their Savior for each individual item in their home. Sound silly but let me tell you first hand - I’ve never felt so welcome and almost grounded and recharged from just being in someone’s space. The sugar was just a bit ... sweeter in my tea - there was a level of appreciation and that I couldn’t put my finger on till much later on in life.

What is present - ?
Right now now off - the - line ?
In real life?

May the Force continue to be with y’all
Pastor Carlos
