i walk a fine line between eloquent prayers and “MOOOOOM WHAT DO I DOOOOOO”
It’s a small detail I’ve always overlooked, but I don’t think it’s insignificant. After the resurrection, only John’s gospel still calls the disciples the Twelve rather than the Eleven.
In Luke-Acts, the women return to “the Eleven” to report the resurrection, and the disciples later elect Matthias to replace Judas.
In Matthew, Judas hangs himself and toward the end, “the Eleven” go to Galilee.
In Mark, Jesus appeared “to the Eleven.”
But in John, Jesus appears to all the disciples except Thomas, who was one of “the Twelve.” It’s a remarkable, arresting phrase to read after the resurrection in light of the other gospels and to realize that in John, no one is missing. Judas hasn’t fallen headlong in a field, hung himself, or just disappeared from the story. In John, they are whole. They are still Twelve disciples, not Eleven.
It’s a complete rewriting of the gospel record and of Judas’ story. It’s an alternate ending, where Jesus really does keep his promise that he would not lose even one given to him.

Needed: – Red and Silver Candles – The Thing you are charming to be your sensor. I recommend a pendant or necklace you wear daily – Juniper Incense or diffused oil
Steps: – Light your candles and set up your incense/oil. – Take your item and establish what its natural state is. This is its resting state, which means that nothing is a foot. – Now take the item and establish what it will do/ look like when something isn’t right. With a pendant, this could be it flipped over or twisted on the chain. – Reset it to its natural state, and wave it over the candle flames, then through the smoke or mist from your Incense/ diffused oil. – Hold it in your hands and focus on the two states, give it direct orders on which is which, and what and when it is to alert you. – Wave it again over the candle flames and through the smoke/mist. – Blow out your candles, and set your Sensor to work.

I’ve been making sentences out of predictive text only. It’s come up with these gems:
“I JUST WISH THERE WERE A WAY TO GET MORE COINS AND THEN I COULD MAKE A BETTER LIFE FOR MY FROGS.”
“You are not going to make me feel happy and I don’t want to see you again.”
“I want to be a happy boy but my uncle is a very intimidating person and he sees me as a human and I don’t want him to know that I am not going to be a god or something.”
“I’m so glad that you are here to make me feel like I am a great grandmother.”
“My heart broke into a werewolf and a vampire and a frog boy who was never told that he was a gay man and the emperor and the holy queen of sass.”
“God is a lesbian and she has no plans for the next few days.”
“Female robots have never been more aggressive than they are this year and I think they’re the best thing to happen to me.”
“The emperor of the pines is the only man going to my birthday party and he is going to come to my room to help me out with my friends.”
Oh shit… we’re gonna fuck the Emperor of the Pines this weekend, guys!
“Giant frog attempts to eat my daughter for dinner and I ended up having to eat a whole tub of chocolate cake for her birthday.”
“I’m not sure what you think of my twitter account but I’m not sorry.”
“I think I am deeply uncomfortable with the idea of having an actual relationship with the emperor of the pines.”
The monster is a beautiful woman and she wants to be loved.
What I did was wrong and I don’t know how to make it up to you.
I’m sorry if I was a gay gay lesbian woman but I don’t want to wear a furry costume to school tomorrow, so I’m going to try to swallow my own blood and then I’m going to be a vampire.
I don’t want you to be a vampire but I am sure that you will be a very charming and friendly person when you’re not wearing a leather jacket.
This weekend was just so weird lol I’m not wearing pants.
Don’t get me wrong I’m not going back to jail for cyber bullying this year but I am going to go to hell.
I want to play with my friends and my loved monsters but they don’t want to play with me.
I want to go to the emperor of the pines for a long long night and I want to see him again and he will be the only man that will ever know the way I love.
I’m so glad that you can make it to the end of the world and I don’t want you to go to sleep now.
do you think God has favorite memes? like he goes to the angels and says “look at what my beautiful children made” and shows them that russian wizard cat meme
i’ve basically become a theology consultant for my friends and i love it.
Magickal Uses: Attracts success, good fortune, and favorable circumstances. Served as a love food. Leaves are carried for luck. Pregnant women carry a packet of the leaves to ease the pain of pregnancy and childbirth.
Sweet, red strawberries are often used in spells for innocent love, friendship and happiness; as well as bringing out the sweetness in a person or situation. On the other hand, the luscious strawberry is a well known aphrodisiac, and can be used to stimulate deeply passionate, and sensual love relationships. As with all magick, the outcome is set by the intention. Used (sparingly) to draw fortunate circumstances into one’s life.
Lucky Charm Spell:
You’ll need:
An iron locket (if possible, other metals are acceptable)
1 strawberry leaf
Chamomile tea (and a towel)
4 star anise
Green salt (grind together sea salt and basil)
Bloodroot powder
1 green candle
Cast your circle, tracing the outline with bloodroot powder: at each watchtower (east, south, west, and north) offer a star anise to each element and place them at each quarter. You may use your own words, but here is an example of how to address each element:
“Air, please blow away all negativity and leave only positivity.” “Fire, please burn a bright light and illuminate me for luck to find.” “Water, please flow like a river and help luck streaming in pure.” “Earth, please grow good happenings and lucky blooms.”
In the center of the circle, wash your hands with the chamomile tea. This is to wash away bad luck which may be lingering and to encourage everything you touch to become lucky. Pat your hands dry with the towel if you want.
Take the iron locket and rub it down with the green salt to purify it. Say as you do this: “With this green salt, I rub away negativity and leave positivity and luck, and harm it none so mote it be.”
Light the green candle and hold the locket in the flame. Say: “With this fire, I create a beacon for luck.”
When cool, put the strawberry leaf inside. Rinse off the green salt with the chamomile tea, and meditate, focusing on channeling lucky energy into your new charm.
-NOTE- Do not use anything you may be allergic to. Remember to snuff out the candles after the spell has been cast with wet fingertips or a candle snuff: blowing out the candles may undo your magick. It does not have to be a locket: you may use anything metal which can hold a strawberry leaf inside. The best time to do this spell is: Sunday, dawn or noon, in spring or autumn, when the moon is waxing or full.
-TIP- Do the spell when it’s raining so you can make the chamomile tea from rain water. Also, the rain can help wash away any lingering bad luck.
