past  (FT sainte)

“Painfully Beautiful” is a song born in the cracks — in the places where life hurts, but God still moves. It captures the strange tension between grief and glory, sorrow and splendor. With lyrics like porcelain fractured yet glowing, this piece invites listeners into the quiet truth that pain is not wasted in God’s hands. The melody weeps and soars, wrapping around the moments we’d rather hide — yet somehow, they shine. This is for every heart that’s walked through fire and wondered if anything good could come from the ashes. It’s for those who carry scars and questions, but still find themselves breathing, believing. In every lyric, the message is clear: God is still redeeming. Still shaping beauty from the mess. Still making cracked vessels radiant. 'Painfully Beautiful' is a holy echo of Romans 8:28 — that in all things, He is working for good. Even this. Especially this.

Painfully Beautiful

- 8 stages of US. History will repeat if we don't know that history. Conservatism has checks and balances. Now a vendetta against the left. New system rising.
-Stand and endure in trust. Match truth with the Lord's word. Can't trust media. Graduates live longer. We are programmed and trained to be employees, not entrepreneurs. Privileged few run things. Leaders don't tend to speak for their constituents. World's truth is a control mechanism. We must endure to death if necessary. Church is infiltrated because God doesn't argue with Himself.
- We can have peace when it's else wise gone. Breakthroughs are fuel that can last the rest of our lives. In our weakness His strength is perfected (in us...). Know how to let go? We receive things by revelation from the Holy Ghost.
- Don't complain! Though eternal, we are leaving here. Don't take time here for granted. Find Christ in every day. Stop worrying- He shows up at the very end. Trials are love and necessary. There is no peace. Racism is an example. 
- 4 horsemen partial review. Global financial system.
- Atlantic isn't going to hold together. Mid East winters are getting brutal. 
- Rev. 20- Fulfillment against Gog Magog; total corruption. God looses Satan after 1,000 yrs. out of mercy. Dead judged by Book of Life. No 2nd death for us. Our advocate wipes our slate clean. Praise God if our name is written in the Book of Life. Sins to Sea of Forgetfulness.  Death AND hell delivered up dead. Some will exist in death without identity. 
-He will overcome the world in us. We are meant for victory. Our choice. Don't resist. God won't recognize who we invent. We are predestined. We are sent to become empowered. Then.. we get to go back home.

Abraham didn't waver through unbelief - his life was a journey of growing faith, and we are instructed to walk in his steps of faith.

The Surprising Strengthening of Faith

“I’m Okay” is a heartfelt Christian country song for anyone who’s ever battled doubt, temptation, or the weight of their past. With raw honesty and powerful hope, the lyrics remind us that no matter how far we fall, we’re never alone—Jesus is right there with us.

This track is a testimony of grace, identity, and healing. When life gets hard and your strength runs dry, remember: “I’m okay… Jesus is here with me.”

🎧 Perfect for quiet mornings, recovery playlists, and anyone needing a reminder that grace still meets us in our mess.

I’m okay…Jesus is here with me

God has at various seasons of our lives appointed us to adversity. There is no use regretting it. God's will is that we shine in darkness for our Savior, the light of the world. The deacon Stephen, through no fault of his own, ended up in a morass of adversity. He was appointed to be the catalyst of God's accomplishment of world missions. Through this adversity, God was with Stephen each step of the way. We worship the same God as Stephen did. We can expect that God's appointments in our calendars are for his good and that he will be with us.

- Post EQ - massive disturbance in magnetosphere. Causes magma problems. Losing ice in Alaska. Not much data in Russia. Current changes contributes to ice melt. Everything escalating. Many quakes before the huge one of Revelation. Big event will cost lives.
-  Water event will bring drought. Jet stream will flip changing weather. 
- Most don't acknowledge the Creator, and yes we have purpose. Angers scientists. No more sound doctrine. Will turn to fables. Worship demons. Some Christians are bitter from attacks. Daniel- craft will prosper. Science has bits and pieces of what God has mastered. Satan infiltrates. Spots in your feast of charity. (Jude) People trust in the system.
- Word disrupts programming. Even righteousness is programed. Word causes offense. No tactics... Can't control others.
- Carrying the message of Christ is different from reading the Bible. 
- If you don't know what to look for, you'll never find it. Sad not to hear God's answers for us.
-Be armored up for combat. Take on assignments. Don't be pacified. Have expectation of the Word. 
- World is governed spiritually. "Let there be light" was a process. 
- Angels- God dispatches and empowers them. They inform and escort us. Power is in the assignment. Power is given to do a task at the very last! We will be delivered. No need to waste time or worry. 
-Trials show us our deficiencies. Good times are worse for faith. 
-Embracing strange flesh brings destruction. 
- Tel Aviv = Sodom and Gomorrah. 
- John 14:15-16 - another Comforter. World can't see or accept the Spirit of Truth. Holy Spirit is God's Spirit. We are born with the Word in us. 
- We rebuke demons in Jesus' stead. Ambassador acts on behalf. Effective if by His instruction. We have a supernatural power for our calling.
- Chimera- humanity mixed with species. Mankind's monsters.
- World reverse views. 3 storms ahead bringing tragedy. 3 times to seal the psychological. 
- Formulas kill discernment. 
- COT will have a satellite.

In this compelling episode of Parallax, Dr Ankur Kalra sits down with Dr Anandita Kulkarni, preventive cardiologist at Baylor Scott and White Heart Hospital, for an eye-opening conversation about addressing cardiovascular disparities in South Asian populations through the innovative Dilwale registry.

Dr Kulkarni tells the story of returning to her Texas community to serve South Asian patients and her determination to create meaningful change through data. What started as a local initiative grew into something much larger: a comprehensive registry of over 31,000 South Asian patients that's revealing critical insights about heart disease in this underserved population.

Beyond the clinical data, this episode delves into the practical challenges of culturally informed preventive care. Dr Kulkarni shares insights on addressing barriers to physical activity within South Asian communities, helping patients navigate dietary changes while respecting cultural food traditions, and the delicate work of motivating lifestyle modifications in a population already facing higher cardiovascular risks. Her patient-centered approach demonstrates how combining population-level research with deep cultural understanding can fundamentally improve both individual outcomes and community health.
