Inheritance
My eldest brother has a substance abuse problem. A few years ago my parents had to bail him out of a huge financial hole he dug for himself and his wife.
My dad was furious. FURIOUS. Contemplating-going-to-the-lawyer-to-change-the-will kind of furious.
I am not a fan of my brother, but I talked my dad down anyway. Dad was angry, and that's a terrible time to make big financial decisions.
When I informed him that Dad was considering taking my brother out of the will and I had talked him out of it, he was so angry with me. "You just fucked yourself. You fucked us!"
He wasn't a fan of my brother either, but he just thought he was a bit of a dope. He didn't really know/register my dislike for him or the reasons for it. So he just wanted me to sell my brother up the creek so I'd get a part of his inheritance. And by "I" we know I mean "we" which we know means "he."
He makes me so sick.
Time Loops ⌛ Our planet is a school and we are here to learn its lessons. This is why some of us keep coming back to the same families where we get another chance to overcome the same challenges, make the same choices, and deal with the same issues that happened in the past.
Eragon finding out that the world is not flat is the most amusing thing to me and I love every moment of it.
When someone dies, in order to be an inheritor, three things must be in place:
First: There must be a WILL
Second: There must be a MEDIATOR or executor of the will,
Third: There need to be persons that are qualified to receive an INHERITANCE.
Inheritors are people that have a close relationship to the person that died, and this is especially true for the children of a father. Using this model, the same is true for those that are 'The Children Of God,' when it comes to receiving an inheritance from the Heavenly Father - just as today’s verse says - “The Promise Of An ETERNAL INHERITANCE”. But the question is this...“How can you become a child of God so that you can receive this Eternal Inheritance?”
There is an interesting play on words here in that to be an inheritor in the (Legal) Will of God, you must DO THE WILL of God and that is to confess with your mouth from your heart that “…by means of the death (of Christ)…for the transgressions of your sins” (ibid) - that Christ died for your sins, that you repent of your sins, and that you want to be part of his family. This is the message of the New Testament in that relationship with God is no longer a matter of following the laws of the Old Testament, but receiving the gift of God of love and reconciliation into his family that Christ as mediator of the new covenant made in the New Testament.
Friend there is an ETERNAL INHERITANCE awaiting you but you cannot receive it unless you are in the family of God. If you have not done so, come to Christ today. He wants you in His family and he does not want to see anyone miss receiving the inheritance which is yours simply for the asking.
Ask Christ today - “LORD, I want to be your child and in your family!”

What if Eragon being a dragon rider was somehow a proof of his trustworthiness?
Murtagh is so anxious not to be known and hated for who he is and yet when Eragon asks him who he is he says, "Murtagh" as if using an alias just isn't the done thing when you're running away and trying to remain unrecognized. Fortunately for him Eragon is still a clueless bumpkin at this point and is like, "Never heard of you. Bestie."
I need a personal Murtagh in my life fr
Murtagh: Meets a child in a tavern
Child: I hate this girl in town
Murtagh: lol yeah fuck that bitch stab her with a fork.
Whoops. I just spent my future childrens' inheritance. My bad. In my defence, besides it being gorgeous, the eyes glow. Come on. The eyes GLOW!
