The Thoughts of God

Seeing a thought of God for what it really is, and seeing a thought of a mere man is the difference between seeing lightning and a lightning bug.

HHO (Hydrogen) Generator Design

Well it seems like everyone has a HHO generator design. If you are looking to build one and are over, lets say 21, feel free to print this off and use it as your template. I make no promises about it actually working or any safety. Remember HHO is extremely flammable. Use with extreme caution.
I would recommend printing these and then copying them onto transparency film. It is see through and durable. For the plates I am using simple stainless steel plates. The spacers are vinyl banner material that are about 1/16-1/8″ thick this should create a good seal and be durable. We’ll see how well that works. I am using a plastic cutting board I bought at wal-mart for about $10 for the outside panels. I will use regular bolts to hold it together and brass bolts as conductors.

This is what is called a “Dry Cell” design which means that it is not submerged but rather the water flows through. I intend to thread the 1/2″ holes on the outside plates and use hose fittings to run the water in and the HHO out. If I can get it working I’ll post a video. Feel free to use these plans for free and feel free to link to my page but not directly to the file. If you use or talk about my plans anywhere please give me credit by stating they came from jasonmichaeldavis.com.

Stranger Than My Sympathy

Stanger than my sympathy

the worst things come from inside me

whether or not were free

the best things come from inside me.

In a field she spins around

doesnt even touch the ground

sooner or later we all fall down

it wont even make a sound.

Im on my way

Im on my way

She stares at paintings on the wall

walks down this endless hall

stays in bloom through the fall.

I can see my dreams come true

all i want is you.

Idolatry

I am going to be speaking on idolatry tonight in youth group. I think after studying it that idolatry is the cause of all sin. Every sin we commit comes from the spring of the worship of other things. I would like to hear your thoughts on this to help with the message for tonight. Anything to say?

Psalm 90 Book IV

Psalm 90

BOOK IV
A prayer of Moses the man of God.

1 Lord, you have been our dwelling place
throughout all generations.

2 Before the mountains were born
or you brought forth the earth and the world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God.

3 You turn men back to dust,
saying, “Return to dust, O sons of men.”

4 For a thousand years in your sight
are like a day that has just gone by,
or like a watch in the night.

5 You sweep men away in the sleep of death;
they are like the new grass of the morning-

6 though in the morning it springs up new,
by evening it is dry and withered.

7 We are consumed by your anger
and terrified by your indignation.

8 You have set our iniquities before you,
our secret sins in the light of your presence.

9 All our days pass away under your wrath;
we finish our years with a moan.

10 The length of our days is seventy years—
or eighty, if we have the strength;
yet their span [a] is but trouble and sorrow,
for they quickly pass, and we fly away.

11 Who knows the power of your anger?
For your wrath is as great as the fear that is due you.

12 Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

13 Relent, O LORD! How long will it be?
Have compassion on your servants.

14 Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love,
that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.

15 Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us,
for as many years as we have seen trouble.

16 May your deeds be shown to your servants,
your splendor to their children.

17 May the favor [b] of the Lord our God rest upon us;
establish the work of our hands for us—
yes, establish the work of our hands.
