Do you know which side of the gulf is waiting for you? Walking
Through the Park is my written testimony of how God directed me
through the first54-years of life. It was inspired at a time when I
was forced to re-evaluate who I was and where I was going. As I did
so, I found that my events in life, and present circumstances,
where not that different from those experienced by many others, and
it made me feel good knowing I was not alone. God is in control He
gives us free will to choose His guidance, and His best for our
lives, or to choose to navigate through life on our own. Every
story in the book is true. These are the events God used to direct,
shape, and mold me. They reflect my personal failures and
accomplishments. The characters are the people God used to push and
pull me in different directions, the most important of which was
Mom and Dad. The progression through the chapters is natural and
follows the major periodical changes in life. The Introduction
gives a sense of who I am and what is important to me. Chapter
after chapter shows the reader how life is more than just a
journey, it is a well-planned Divine scheme of events with a
definite beginning and end or transition from life to life. My hope
is that the reader will discover their life has a definite purpose
and goal and there is an important decision they need to make. God
can and will lead, guide, and control your life if you ask Him to,
but you must invite Him in.
When we lose a loved one, we are overwhelmed with grief, denial,
abandonment, and anxiety. God's comfort does help to ease the pain,
but only time will heal the wounds. The loss leaves a hole in our
soul where our loved ones once occupied the space. We search for
answers to our questions. While some aspects of grief are common to
all, the grieving process is a uniquely individual experience. The
following stories are about four souls I have loved and lost. The
most comforting thought God has given me is that I will see them
all again one day in the future.
Dolphins are one of the most intelligent, sentient beings that God
has created. God created them, as they are, before He placed any
soul in a flesh, human body. They did not evolve from another type
of animal. As we are the terrestrial minds of the Earth, dolphins
are the aquatic minds of the Earth. God loves His animals. This
project is intended to fill the gap between the viewpoints and
perceptions of scientists concerning dolphins, and the basic
understanding held by the general public. You will find information
on the history of the Order Cetacea and a complete list of its
taxonomy. We will have a discussion on the theory of evolution.
We'll learn about the life cycle of dolphins and their social
structures. It is interesting to see how the U.S. Navy has used
dolphins and what sparked the rush of research that has provided us
with so much knowledge about dolphins. We'll learn about some good
will from dolphins to humans and the controversy over man's
exploitation of dolphins. We'll also discuss a culture in the world
that is detrimental to dolphins. It also provides resources for one
to gain their own information and knowledge.
Ask anyone on the streets of America to answer one or more
questions about the Bible and you will get a variety of misinformed
answers. Therefore, it is my opinion that our country is Biblically
illiterate. They may have an abundance of thoughts on the matter,
but when you compare those thoughts to scripture the lack of true
knowledge becomes evident. When King James' scribes translated the
Hebrew and Greek manuscripts into English in 1611, they made many
mistakes, which they duly noted in a letter to the King in the
front of that Bible. So I have compiled particular scriptures from
throughout the Bible and added some topical essays in an effort to
dispel some of the lies, myths, and traditions of men associated
with those mistranslations. I do not claim to be an expert in
languages or the Bible, but research and homework is simple enough
to do.
Heaven by the Sea is a heart-warming story with a devilish
component. It follows the main character through the three Heaven
and Earth Ages. Part One, The First Earth Age, establishes the
relationships between the main character, A.J., and several of the
secondary characters. It also sets the tone for Parts Two and
Three-the second and third Earth Ages. In Part Two, A.J. is a
"fifty something" widowed preacher in a seedy borough of New York
City. His wife of twenty-five years died five years earlier from a
rare form of cancer. Over the years, A.J. gained a reputation of
taking his work out on the streets and helping the needy where they
live. However, a physical ailment and a near-death experience
caused him to retire to his hometown, Cocoa Beach, Florida. In
Cocoa Beach, he joined his lifelong friends, Jack and Laura, to
begin a new era of his life. Early on, he began to make some new
friends including a pair of angelic bottlenose dolphins, which he
named Michael and Gabriel. A.J. learned later that Gabriel was a
female and changed her name to Gabrielle. God had blessed A.J.
financially through the stock market, so he was not pressed to
work. Through Jack and Laura's church, he began to volunteer at the
local children's hospital where he made two new important
friendships. Maggie was the Head Nurse, also in her fifties, and
took a liking to A.J. the moment she met him. James Walker had
recently retired from the hospital as Chief Pediatrician. Without a
church to preach in, A.J. searched for a substantial way to serve
God. His new friends, including the dolphins, had a profound
influence on him. With the help of a realtor, Betty, A.J. located
and acquired an abandoned spa-resort on a private lagoon south of
Cocoa Beach. Together they opened a therapy clinic, the namesake,
for children based on Dolphin therapy. With the help of volunteers,
the old spa was transformed into a nonprofit, children's therapy
clinic with fantastic facilities, where families could stay with
their children who were receiving physical therapy. Shortly after
opening, while their first child client, Ashley, was still there, a
hurricane caused Heaven by the Sea to close for repairs, after
which, it reopened and thrived. It gained national support and
controversy over their use of dolphins, but A.J. quickly dispelled
the controversy through transparency and honesty. Even though the
dolphins were wild and in no way confined, they did, however, have
to obtain a permit from the National Marine Fisheries Service and
add a dolphin expert, Monica, to their staff in a miraculous
manner. Suddenly and unexpectedly, the world was drastically
changed overnight. Apollyon, Satan, in his role as Antichrist was
kicked out of Heaven onto the Earth, and the apostasy of II
Thessalonians 2:3 began. Apollyon began his flood of lies to the
world at the United Nations and quickly moved over the whole Earth
deceiving the world, claiming to be Jesus Christ. His supernatural
powers and wisdom persuaded the population to "fly away" with him
in what was known as the rapture. A.J. gained the national
spotlight with his biblical teaching that Apollyon was the
False-Christ, not the true Christ, but few listened. Heaven by the
Sea became a stronghold for those who did listen to A.J., and they
withstood Apollyon's flood of lies and power. The sound of the
seventh trumpet initiated the Second Advent of the true Christ, the
Lord's Day, the millennium, . A.J.'s teaching of Biblical
prophecies came to fruition. All human flesh melted away as each
individual stepped into their spiritual body. A.J. and his friends
joined the multitude of others, which had remained true to Jesus
Christ, at the millennial Temple to worship God and receive their
assignments to go out into the world and teach the word of God to
the lost souls. In between the teaching, A.J. was reunited with the
three dolphins. A.J. and James also visited some very famous places
in this world and out of this world.
