Amen my dear brothers and sister!  What more can Jesus offer us than His precious invitation to come to Him just as we are!

Those who take Christ at His word, and surrender their souls to His keeping, their lives to His ordering, will find peace and quietude. Nothing of the world can make them sad when Jesus makes them glad by His presence. In perfect acquiescence there is perfect rest. The Lord says, "Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee: because he trusteth in Thee." Isaiah 26:3. Our lives may seem a tangle; but as we commit ourselves to the wise Master Worker, He will bring out the pattern of life and character that will be to His own glory. And that character which expresses the glory--character--of Christ will be received into the Paradise of God. A renovated race shall walk with Him in white, for they are worthy.   


Yes, our sister and I selected the same quote. We not only may have peace, but will reflect the character of our Lord!

Amen, Brother Beacon!

Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, but Satan ever seeks to lead souls away from the only true source of soul rest, into different ditches of distraction that do not produce the character depth and growth that only comes through union and communion with Jesus! Sin intercepts that connection, and that is why Satan seeks to lead the human race into sin--to separate us from God, the ONLY source of joy and purpose that really matters! Not only will we be filled with joy in divine communion in a fully surrendered and converted relationship with Christ, but we will be filled with ALL of the fruit of the Spirit without one missing, given strength to live up to the light of God's law, and enabled to use the spiritual gifts God has given us to edify the church and save souls! Praise God!

"Scribes and rabbis, with their punctilious attention to religious forms, had a sense of want that rites of penance could never satisfy. Publicans and sinners might pretend to be content with the sensual and earthly, but in their hearts were distrust and fear. Jesus looked upon the distressed and heart burdened, those whose hopes were blighted, and who with earthly joys were seeking to quiet the longing of the soul, and He invited all to find rest in Him." {The Desire of Ages, page 328, paragraph 3}

In Jesus' day, there were and still are the religiously lost people and also the openly sinful lost people (and everyone in whatever way they are lost). But sin is sin as the transgression of the law of love and rest, so whether it is religious pride, or sensual indulgence of immorality--or any other work of the flesh, it separates the soul from God and by the love of self brings unrest. The gospel offers us the remedy in Jesus! Jesus yearned for ALL of them to be truly converted and come to Him. So today the offer still stands, as He years over all the human race to come to Him: "Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light" (Matthew 11:28-30). Will you come and surrender to Him? He will give you rest in His service!

From Furniture To Shampoo: Common Household Chemicals Linked to Brain Damage
By CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY MARCH 27, 2024
https://scitechdaily.com/from-furniture-to-shampoo-common-household-chemicals-linked-to-brain-damage/

 New research indicates that chemicals found in countless household products can damage specialized brain cells.A team of researchers from the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine has provided fresh insight into the dangers some common household chemicals pose to brain health. They suggest that chemicals found in a wide range of items, from furniture to hair products, may be linked to neurological diseases like multiple sclerosis and autism spectrum disorders.


 The new study published in the journal Nature Neuroscience, discovered that some common home chemicals specifically affect the brain’s oligodendrocytes, a specialized cell type that generates the protective insulation around nerve cells.


 “Loss of oligodendrocytes underlies multiple sclerosis and other neurological diseases,” said the study’s principal investigator, Paul Tesar, the Dr. Donald and Ruth Weber Goodman Professor of Innovative Therapeutics and director of the Institute for Glial Sciences at the School of Medicine. “We now show that specific chemicals in consumer products can directly harm oligodendrocytes, representing a previously unrecognized risk factor for neurological disease.”


Chemicals of Concern and Their Effects
On the premise that not enough thorough research has been done on the impact of chemicals on brain health, the researchers analyzed over 1,800 chemicals that may be exposed to humans. They identified chemicals that selectively damaged oligodendrocytes belong to two classes: organophosphate flame retardants and quaternary ammonium compounds.


 Since quaternary ammonium compounds are present in many personal-care products and disinfectants, which are being used more frequently since the COVID-19 pandemic began, humans are regularly exposed to these chemicals. And many electronics and furniture include organophosphate flame retardants.

Consumption of Fast Food Linked to Potentially Deadly Liver Disease
https://scitechdaily.com/consumption-of-fast-food-linked-to-potentially-deadly-liver-disease/

The study found that eating fast food is associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, a potentially life-threatening condition in which fat builds up in the liver.
 
 Researchers discovered that people with obesity or diabetes who consume 20% or more of their daily calories from fast food have severely elevated levels of fat in their liver compared to those who consume less or no fast food. And the general population has moderate increases of liver fat when one-fifth or more of their diet is fast food.

The findings also reveal that a relatively modest amount of fast food, which is high in carbohydrates and fat, can hurt the liver. “If people eat one meal a day at a fast-food restaurant, they may think they aren’t doing harm,” said Kardashian. “However, if that one meal equals at least one-fifth of their daily calories, they are putting their livers at risk.”

 
 “Healthy livers contain a small amount of fat, usually less than 5%, and even a moderate increase in fat can lead to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease,” said Ani Kardashian, MD, a hepatologist with Keck Medicine and lead author of the study.

Absolutely agreed. Finding some commonality is not proof but triggers more investigation towards a possible causal relationship. We have to follow and see where it leads.
