*A Psalm of David* 101 *I will sing of mercy and justice; To You, O Lord, I will sing praises.* Throughout the Bible there are thousands of verses that tell us to praise the Lord or simply DO praise the Lord. Many psalms are dedicated to praising the Lord and giving thanks to Him for His mercy and love. Jesus has a plan for each of us. Everyone is important to our Father. He knows you from day you were conceived until the day you die. That HE knows us is just being God, Father almighty. Do you know the Lord? Have you praised Jesus this week? Are you written in the Lamb's Book of Life? If you are not sure pray now. Do not stay out in the cold. Come to the Lord who will fill you with His Spirit. He will help you thru the worst that life can throw at you and make you a better being for it. WITH LOVE. Jesus is love. God is Love. May the peace of the Lord rest on you now and forever more. In HIS NAME, Amen. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rlwBirYRXo

*Day of the Dead* *Dia de los Muertos* You all know what Halloween is, which is also called All Hallows Eve or All Saints Day. In the Southwest of the USA there are a great many Hispanic people. We live and work side by side and some have adopted the customs of this holiday which is called *Day of the Dead* *Dia de los Muertos*. The Day of the Dead is a Mexican holiday celebrated in Mexico and elsewhere associated to the Catholic celebrations of All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day. The multi-day holiday involves family and friends gathering to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died. It is commonly portrayed as a day of celebration rather than mourning. Mexican academics are divided on whether the festivity has indigenous pre-hispanic roots or whether it is a 20th century rebranded version of a Spanish tradition developed by the presidency of Lazaro Cardenas to encourage Mexican nationalism through an "Aztec" identity. The holiday is very colorful and festive. I have attempted to make this video for my Mexican friends and for those from Puerto Rico and Cuba. There are sound effects and soulful music. Thank you for watching. JJ:) ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEECRytmGVk

This is the 29th in a series of a collaboration of two fractal artists. *Fractal Caleidoscope (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBZj9rNtbi2DrwxnGxDVJcg)* created the amazing and unique fractals. She then gave them to me to edit and make them into kaleids. I am taking them to the next level. Two artists working together to create something beautiful from the talents of both of them. This is an ongoing series of art and friendship. Artists working together to make the world a happier place. The first frame after the credits is Fractal Caleidoscope's edited fractal. The rest are the Abstract Kaleid Art made by me. **++This is a special fractal. Fractal Caleidoscope featured it in her latest video. It is so unique I have never seen another one like it. I just had to see what the kaleids would look like. They are so wonderful. Because her fractal is beautiful. All I did is increase the color saturation. Fractal Caleidoscope is a gem. ++** Please visit Fractal Caleidoscope at *Fractal Caleidoscope (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBZj9rNtbi2DrwxnGxDVJcg)* to see her amazing and unique fractals. Thank you for watching. JJ and FC :D ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwAw18xuTFA
