I seek always to be helpful in what I have to say after reading the many postings I find so helpful in this wonderful group. This then is just one more of such of my posting.

I once read a poem about "He whow knows." inwhich a list of persons who are fools, childish, or just asleep. Also of one that said; "He drew a circle that shut me out.- "We drew a circle that took him in."

In view of the above, I often feell myself to be some times foolish and childish, and at other times asleep and then after reading Ecclesiastes
and Proverbs, wise.

Job,14:1-12 tells us that man born of a woman is of a few days and full of trouble. He springs up like a flower and withhers away;- And look it is at
such times that I feel we find him in the spring of life a beauity that we
all behold.

To be obsess with the obsesssion of such youthful male beauity as can be found in our boyhood years can and has lead me to be a boy lover with a feeling of deep passion that has become akind to lust. And it is this I feel that has lead to an addition of problems and troubles that Job said would be.

I am therefor happy to have God's Holy Spirit as a helper in this warfare
of which Paul in chapter 7 and 8 tells us about. Here we find much food for thought, as our thinking and feelings often lead to our actions and behavior. Along with what we read at Phil.4:8-9

So let be also thank you for reading this as I hope it can be of help.
