During a boat trip over rio Medio Queso we discovered this, in my eyes, strange creature. I was so excited to see an animal like this one, totally in protective coloration, the same color as the leaves around him. His nickname is Jesus Christ. This because when he runs away he can make a movement over the surface of the water... It sounds a little bit strange but when he had enough of being there where we saw him, indeed he ran for a short distance over water...really. Dear Flickr friends, I don’t say it so often but thank you so much for looking at, faving and commenting on my photos. I love it all!!!
De nos tanières de draps blancs
De nos grabats mangés aux rêves,
De notre pain de temps en temps
Et de nos miettes marche ou crève
Avec la vie au beau milieu,
Et puis la faim qui nous soulève,
Nous te disons: "Merci mon Dieu!"
De nos salaires raccourcis
Et qui rallongent notre gêne,
De l'or qui pousse aux quatre jeudis,
De nos éternelles semaines
Avec la rage au beau milieu,
Et puis l'envie qui nous malmène,
Nous te disons: "Merci mon Dieu!"
De notre terre à ciel perdu,
De nos fusils à cicatrices,
De nos enfants qui n'ont pas pu
Éloigner d'eux l'amer calice
Avec la guerre au beau milieu
Et puis le héros qui s'y glisse,
Nous te disons: "Merci mon Dieu!"
Des chevaux d'avoine posthume
Qui traînent leur dernier convoi,
Des chiens perdus que l'on transhume
Vers leur dernier pipi de croix
Avec la mort au beau milieu,
Et la pitié qui nous consume,
Nous te disons: "Merci mon Dieu!"
De cette croix du Golgotha
Qui crucifie tant de poitrines,
Et de ton fils qui n'a fait ça
Que pour la peau et les épines
Avec l'amour au beau milieu,
Et puis ton ciel qu'on imagine,
Nous te disons: "Pourquoi mon Dieu!"
(Léo Ferré "Merci mon dieu")

Bethlehem's Basilica of the Nativity is one of the most significant religious and historical sites in the world. Located in Bethlehem, a town in the West Bank, it is widely regarded as the birthplace of Jesus Christ. The basilica holds immense religious importance for Christians and attracts pilgrims and tourists from all over the globe.
The Basilica of the Nativity was originally commissioned by Emperor Constantine the Great in the 4th century AD. It was built over the site believed to be the birthplace of Jesus, as identified by early Christian tradition. The basilica's architecture reflects a blend of Roman, Byzantine, and Crusader influences, making it a unique and historically rich structure.
The church's interior features a combination of ornate decorations, mosaics, and religious artifacts, preserving the essence of its ancient origins. One of its most iconic elements is the Grotto of the Nativity, a small underground cave within the basilica, traditionally recognized as the exact spot where Jesus was born. Pilgrims often gather around this revered site to pay their respects and offer prayers.
Throughout its long history, the Basilica of the Nativity has faced various challenges, including damage from earthquakes and periods of conflict. However, it has been meticulously restored and remains a symbol of enduring faith and spiritual devotion.
Due to its profound historical and religious significance, the Basilica of the Nativity has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, further cementing its importance as a place of cultural and religious heritage for people worldwide. Visiting this holy site offers a powerful and humbling experience, allowing individuals to connect with centuries of Christian tradition and reverence for the birth of Jesus Christ.
As you probably already know, Easter lilies are symbolic of purity and as well, the Christian belief in the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
The bulb grows for three years before it's shipped to greenhouses and 'timed to bloom' for Easter. And so the symbolism of the bulb emerging from the ground continues through the Christian belief that Jesus Christ was resurrected.
It is our holiest time of the year.
Amen
Enjoy the weekend however it has meaning for you, flickr friends....Pat....xo

トルムスに行ったからにはこの教会に行ってみたいと思ったので、念願が叶いました。
Now that I went to Tromso because I thought I want to go to this church, the wish came true.
PLEASE NO INVITES AS THIS IS INTENDED AS A GREETING ONLY - THANK YOU.
Matthew 28:5-7
And the angel answered and said to the women, Fear not you: for I know that you seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goes before you into Galilee; there shall you see him: see, I have told you.
Is It So Important?
Is it really so important
just to know that Jesus died,
Does it really make a difference knowing
He was crucified?
Indeed, it was for all my sin
He hung upon a tree,
So it really is important -
through believing, I am free.
Free from all my sin and shame, my
conscience cleansed from guilt,
You too may know this blessing,
through believing if you wilt.
Is it so important then to know that Jesus rose?
That the tomb was empty, mocking
all the efforts of His foes.
Yes! It proves his power,
over sin and death and grave.
By His glorious resurrection,
we know He came to save.
His disciples who had seen Him die,
were frightened and were sad;
Until the day of resurrection -
His appearing made them glad.
He ascended to his Father,
there His precious blood to plead,
For those who came believing,
acknowledging their need,
He has sent his Holy Spirit
(Guide and Comforter is He)
He will teach me of my Saviour,
who will come again for me.
Then - with all who love Him,
we shall meet Him in the air.
He will take us to his Father's house,
to praise Him ever there.

Христос Воскрес! Он, Царь миров,
Царей могучих Повелитель,
Он – весь смиренье, весь – любовь,
За грешный мир святую кровь
Пролил как ангел – искупитель!
Христос Воскрес! Он людям дал
Завет святого всепрощенья,
Он падшим милость даровал
И за святые убежденья
Велел страдать, как сам страдал!
Христос Воскрес! Он возвестил,
Что на земле все люди – братья,
Он мир любовью обновил,
Он на кресте врагов простил,
И нам открыл свои объятья!
Христос Воскрес! Христос Воскрес!
Пусть эти радостные звуки,
Как пенье ангелов с небес,
Рассеют злобу, скорби, муки!
Соединим все братски руки,
Обнимем всех! Христос Воскрес!......................................................................................Christ is Risen! He, the King of the Worlds,
The Mighty Lord of Kings,
He is humility itself, love itself,
Holy Blood for the sinful world
Shed your blood like a redeeming angel!
Christ is Risen! He gave people
The Covenant of Holy Forgiveness,
He granted mercy to the fallen
And for the holy beliefs
He told us to suffer as he suffered!
Christ is Risen! He announced,
That all people on earth are brothers,
He renewed the world with love,
He forgave his enemies on the cross,
And he opened his arms to us!
Christ is Risen! Christ is Risen!
Let these joyful sounds,
Like the singing of angels from heaven,
They will dispel anger, sorrows, torments!
Let's join all fraternal hands,
Let's embrace everyone! Christ is Risen!
Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde (en provençal, Nouestro-Damo de la Gardo), souvent surnommée « la Bonne Mère » (la Boueno Maire en provençal), est une des basiliques mineures de l'Église catholique romaine. Elle est située à Marseille, à cheval sur les quartiers du Roucas Blanc et de Vauban, sur un piton calcaire de 149 mètres d'altitude surélevé de 13 mètres grâce aux murs et soubassements d'un ancien fort. La colline Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde constitue un site classé depuis 1917.
Construite par l'architecte protestant Henri Espérandieu dans le style romano-byzantin et consacrée le 5 juin 1864, elle remplace une chapelle du même nom édifiée en 1214 et reconstruite au xve siècle. Bâtie sur les bases d'un fort du xvie siècle construit par François Ier en 1536 pour résister au siège de Charles Quint, la basilique comporte deux parties : une église basse, ou crypte, creusée dans le roc et de style roman, et au-dessus une église haute de style romano-byzantin décorée de mosaïques. Au sommet d'un clocher carré de 41 mètres de haut surmonté lui-même d'une sorte de tour de 12,5 mètres qui lui sert de piédestal, se dresse une statue monumentale de 11,2 mètres de la Vierge à l'Enfant réalisée en cuivre doré à la feuille.
