Every Family in Heaven and on Earth
“For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
“Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.” -Ephesians 3: 14-21 ESV Study Bible.

“Blending With Blenda”
Or . . .
“Romancing the ROCK”
Remembering the movie: “Romancing the Stone.”
In
My state of confusion
As I turned on my computer, it seemed that today was a Saturday –
But
Today is actually a Wednesday
I was born on a Wednesday
And
In the name Wednesday is the word
Wed
I’m now 74
And I’ve never been married
Have no children, either.
I’m not a dad.
I have had some girlfriends
Though most of my life I’ve been living single –
Without even a girlfriend to go out on a date with.
And often, when I walk to the supermarket, and go by a little restaurant on Rathbun Street in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, I remember being in that restaurant with a girlfriend of decades ago; and miss those times of walking with a girlfriend to a store or somewhere – a female companion to be friends with. That girlfriend, though, is not the one.
I like going to myfreecams.
There is someone there who is so beautiful . . .
I just like seeing her.
Her name is Brenda.
In my booklet of names for boys and girls, Brenda is defined as “the feminine form of Brand.”
So, I went to the boys’ list in that booklet to see what the name Brand means.
It means: “a fighter.”
Brenda doesn’t seem like a fighter, though.
She always moves gently on screen.
She seems very graceful.
I wrote to her that when I see her video I begin falling in love.
It was because I’m thinking of posting this writing to my blog that I had a concern that, maybe, Brenda might not want my thoughts and imaginings about her and me to be made public; so, I began wondering about another name for her in my writing. In that booklet today I found the name Blenda. It means “Dazzling; glorious.”
At 74, though, my love life is only imaginary now.
And literary – as in writing about it.
That is as far as it goes now – for me –
Imagining and writing.
This imaginary love for Brenda has some spiritual overtones, though.
I recall some words of Jesus:
“Eat my body; drink my blood.”
See John 6 in The New Testament

And, in Luke chapter 22, it is written:
“And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying,
‘This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.’” -Jesus [Luke 22: 20 ESV].

Some readers may find the following imaginary writing offensive. It is sexual. I was thinking this evening that, maybe, love between a husband and wife may be about to become something holy and spiritual and Biblical and kingdom of God(ly).
This is what I mean:
It’s about Jesus saying,
“Eat my body. Drink my blood.”
What if– in love-making—the two begin having oral sex; and she – with him in her mouth – begins to squeeze him between her upper and lower front teeth – even hard enough to draw his blood – and she drinks his blood – as she continues with her love-maKING – AND she recalls Jesus’ words about “eat my body . . . drink my blood.”

Maybe the above is only to be contemplated in the realm of imagination.
Maybe it is only for spiritual contemplation.
Maybe the Second Coming of Christ is very close at hand.
Maybe the great tribulation is about to bring the world system to an end very soon.
Maybe in the new heavens and new earth, love-maKING will be of a much more spiritual nature.
“Yet among the mature we do impart wisdom, although it is not a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are doomed to pass away. But we impart a secret and hidden wisdom of God, which God decreed before the ages for our glory. None of the rulers of this age understood this, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But, as it is written,
“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
Nor the heart of man imagined,
What God has prepared for those who love him”—
These things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.” -1 Corinthians 2: 6-10. ESV Study Bible.
