sovereign

It is apparent, dear reader, in most continents of the world kings and queens are not what they once used to be. Where once total power rested in their hands. Many now are just figure heads of past glories. Given the many atrocities which had been carried out under the banner of this king or that Queen, it is not unreasonable to be in the situation we are presently residing. Yet the limiting of absolute power from the former sovereigns of this world has not prevented the abuse they used to carry out from being visited upon us by others. Sadly, however, the opposite is not always true, for many leaders of their countries were worthwhile men and women, who took their role of King and Queen with such seriousness that their entire lives were dedicated to the furtherance of the people under them. The monarchy indeed became the true Shepherd. Sadly with the lessening of the monarchs power the ability to protect the flock has also gone.

Connection

There is dear reader a perception that one can exist inside of this life without affecting another person. This view, I believe comes more out of hope that actual truth.

Masterpiece

There are, dear reader, many copies of an original masterpiece found throughout the world .Yet while each copy can bring much pleasure to its individual owner or viewer, it's value, rightly so, is always judged less than the original itself. Even more confusingly, there exists artists of such skill in the world that they can copy an original masterpiece to such seemingly perfect brushstroke that it takes an expert to be able to differentiate their work from the original. There can be only one masterpiece, the rest are all copies or imitations. While those who have known copies can take great pleasure from this, the person who thinks They have a masterpiece yet suddenly discovers they have a forgery, has a very different view on the work they now own. Copies are useful only when they are recognised as copies, when mistaken for the original thing they can cause many problems. The same illustration can be applied to our spiritual life, the faith of Christianity tells about the relatio...
