They say

We all know that there are things that come between us and God.

Whether it’s an addiction. Or a toxic relationship. Or our politics.

Something as retro as one of the seven deadlies. Or something subtle as our own anger or negativity.

When something comes between us and God. The hardest part isn’t always dealing with whatever has come between us and God.

Sometimes the hardest part is dealing with other people. And their perception of us.

That is, whatever we were doing that got us off track? People get used to us being someone who does that. So much so, that’s how they define us. To them, that’s who we are.

“You thought he wasn’t going to do that? Oh, that’s just him.”

“She always says stuff like that. That’s why I quit following her.”

Which can be a huge problem when we finally decide to deal with whatever has come between us and God.

You would think that people would welcome the change. After all, when something comes between us and God, you and I aren’t the only ones that get hit by the fallout from that. It impacts everyone around us. At a minimum.

Given that, you’d think that their response would be something like, “that’s great, how can I help?” Or at least, “it’s about time.”

Instead, we get pushback. It’s almost like people are saying to us, “That’s your box. Don’t you dare try to crawl out of it. That’s who you are.”

Which is why today’s first reading (about the conversion of St. Paul) is so important.

Because this is exactly what happens to St. Paul.

God tells Ananias to go to Saul (Paul’s name before his conversion) and heal him. Ananias is a believer. He’s a good guy. But he still pushes back,

“Lord, I have heard from many sources about this man, what evil things he has done…”

And God’s response? God doesn’t waste time with what “they say.”

Because that’s what Ananias is throwing at God. A fancy version of “they say.”

There are a lot of reasons why God doesn’t waste time with what “they say.” First, God is, well, God. God already knows all of it. None of the evil things that have been told to Ananias thirdhand are news to God.

But more importantly, that’s not how God sees Saul. God doesn’t see Saul as the subject of rumors. As someone rightly on the receiving end of tales that grow worse with the telling.

As God tells Ananias, “this man is a chosen instrument of mine.”

Translation, God doesn’t just put up with Saul. God chooses Saul. Because God sees who he really is.

God sees the Paul that He made him to be. Because God has a plan for his life.

And all of that, because Saul took his first stumbling step towards God. His first step away from everything that he had put between himself and God. His first step towards Home.

It’s not unusual. This is just who God is. And how overjoyed God is, when we take our first stumbling step towards Him.

When God sees us taking that first stumbling step towards Him, towards becoming who He made us to be, God rejoices. And claims us as His own.

God turns to the angels and says, “See that? You know who that is? This woman is a chosen instrument of mine. This man is a chosen instrument of mine.”

It happens every time. When we take our first step away from everything that we’ve put between ourselves and God.

It happens every time. When we take our first step towards Home.

Because God doesn’t waste time with what “they say.”

Today’s Readings

[ankhmeanswombman]

“Other people” are here to either facilitate your ego-death, wake you up with their soap opera antics, or encourage you to activate Infinite Love, which often means isolating oneself after the lesson an individual person offered has been learned. Joyful isolation allows life’s lessons to ferment and mould one’s perspective so as to be guided on the righteous path more and more. It is socialisation that offers a wild frenzy of distractions hurled from every corner, aiming to smudge out the soul’s unique spark that is supposed to be a lesson for others to ascend. The anti Christ world only wants continued descent so stories of true betterment (rather than lust and consumption) will be erased from the sight of the careless and malevolent majority. “Other people” are a mirror of what you need to fix, or alternatively, what you need to bring out within yourself. Because most of the world is in a descended state, they use “other people” to fulfil their frivolity instead of teaching and learning from “other people”.

I am not only convinced that Crowley listens to LP (the singer), but I also have this very specific image of him fully drunk with Other People at max volume screaming angrily the words of the chorus to the sky (specifically heaven) (specifically Aziraphale)

I swear to shit, they keep teasing us with these Mew / Someone Else scenes and we're not actually gonna get one. God damn he and Ray look so good together. Absolutely dying about it. Just some grinding in bed? Is that so much to ask? It's normal after a break-up to hook up with people, especially the kind of character flip he's going thru.

You're putting Mew in a God damned Harley Quinn costume and you expect me not to want these things? Rude.

These are my 9 favorite movies I watched in 2022. I'm posting this now because I never got around to doing it last year lol.

The criteria is just that I must have seen the movie in 2022. It doesn't matter when the movie came out as long as I personally watched it in 2022.

These aren't necessarily the best movies I saw, just the ones I enjoyed the most or the ones that left the strongest impression on me. If a movie is very flawed but I keep thinking about it after seeing it, I consider that a "better" movie than one I maybe really enjoyed at the time but mostly forgot about afterwards.

These aren't in any particular order, I just arranged the posters how I thought they looked best. The movies are:

Nope

Spree

Watcher

Other People

Prey

Significant Other

No Exit

Everything Everywhere All at Once

The Power of the Dog

I'm a big movie watcher and keep track of the movies I watch via Letterboxd (prior to that I used to use Listal and a text file and before all that I had a physical notebook with my movie stubs in it [still have that around somewhere too!]). If you're curious what else I watched in 2022 other than these 9, you can check out my movie log here.
