God’s secret Gift!

Gone to the Dogs

We have a dog.  This is our 6th dog that is not our dog.  These dogs just seem to sense that our home is their home and they act like they belong and my wife is supposed to feed them. I guess it isn’t hard to figure out. She opens the door and they come in.

Then they find a bed setup in the living room and another in the bed room. There is fresh water in the laundry room and food magically shows up there.

Brownie was brown and the neighbor left her behind so she moved in. “Little bit” was a hound who wouldn’t come close or let anyone pet him.  He discovered Brownie and we had beds outside made up depending on the direction of the sun. Winston our son’s dog jumped on a truck, took a ride and got lost. But my took him to the vet where they put a collar on and someone noticed him and called the vet.

Winston became my pal along with Irish. Now we have Baily a girl hound. She can’t hear but has amazing instincts. She observes my wife closely and now monitors the two of us more closely than my wife can do on her best days.  This dog can be dead to the world asleep and we move to another room and she soon follows – like what you two up to now?

I have to be careful because she is asleep monitoring me now!  Seems this dog is teaching us something about “God” dog spelled backwards, cause we can think we are getting away with something and the next thing we know there’s the dog asking what on earth are you doing?

Tricked into a Earth Ministry

Some people think I am retired! Walk my property line with me one day! Discovered the reason I purchased this land in 1994 is so the Good Lord could teach me to be a tree farmer and how to manage land for wild life. And how to be observant of God’s creation.

Some folks might think this is a horrible thing to do but managing trees for harvest is one of the best land management practices which includes burning the forest floor every few years.

This is the way to keep trees growing, support wild life and make use of natures bounty before it dies a natural death and goes to waste. The drought last year was hard on the forest and many trees were on there last leg. Look at the forest in Georgia if you want to see the impact. Many pine trees losing there needles.

When a land owner clears cuts an area it becomes prime wildlife habitat as it is born again from the seeds already in the ground that then have a chance to germinate.

So you are looking at the “already” in the ground with the “not yet” – waiting to explode when the rains come followed by the Son/sun which will surely rise. You can bet on it!

So I must conclude tough I didn’t know it when I started – I have long had a “earth ministry” that I began serving in 1994 the year before I was ordained. I suspect God had a plan and set me up while I didn’t even know it was happening.

Freedom to Consent – Worship God – Balance Powers of Corruption

It’s raining – Gods way of cleaning up and quenching the thirst of the earth for new life that lie dormant in the hearts of men..

The Constitution and the Garden – what do they have in common?

Seeds of God planted hidden from the beginning, tough many deny god exists. God’s nature is three in one – Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We have eyes but can’t see! The church is a people who were given the great gift of free will. Humans created equal yet unique and different. All living within the laws of nature with God as the highest authority and Sovereign over all.

How to control the nature of man who seeks the power of God symbolized in the tree of knowledge. Ah ha – how to Balance Power of a great many people created equal and to avoid the sins of man that manifests itself in democracy – majority rule the greatest of dangers? Thug politics is a better word.

Through the ages Wisdom found to control this beast required the consent of the people created equally and by separating Powers into equal branches of people attached to the same tree. Yet recognizing there is a fourth power – the consent of a people created equally yet knowing they were susceptible from the very beginning to corruption or sin.

These the words politicians hate the most (sin and corruption)!

We live in a nation that created a system that draws a people to behave in a manner that is in the best interest of men created equal with free will that grant consent while seeking to not violate the laws of nature and God who is recognized as the highest authority and granter of equality hidden in the spirit of every human.

The Declaration of Independence provided the guidelines for the creation of the Republic of the United States of America.

With every right comes a duty. When the laws of nature and God are violated man suffers. Thou shall not kill is still valid.

Those who deny the laws of nature and God deny the very founding of the greatest and longest living nation in the history of world. Sadly many seek to destroy the light placed upon a hill for the world to see.

This nation was born out of the fear of men at logger heads, brought to their knees in prayer beseeching the only power capable of opening the minds of men to save them from their selves.

We need to pray for our nation which at war with itself.

Lord wash the hatred from the hearts of this free people and provide the assist necessary to bring us to our knees. Save us from the lust for power that is enslaving some to belittle, beat down and silence the spirit of truth!

Birthday Present 2017

My birthday present to you in 2017!!! Some say I am retired!?! Could have fooled me! But I say – the voice more powerful just keeps on calling – stay persistent do not get discouraged by people seeking their own desires . The promise made will be a lasting treasure! My birthday gift to those willing to listen and with ears willing to hear! From 2 Timothy 4:

I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingly power: 

a 2; be persistent whether it is convenient or inconvenient; convince, reprimand, encourage through all patience and teaching.

b 3 For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine but, following their own desires and insatiable curiosity,* will accumulate teachers

c 4 and will stop listening to the truth and will be diverted to myths.

d 5 But you, be self-possessed in all circumstances; put up with hardship; perform the work of an evangelist; fulfill your ministry.

Has this day (b 3;) already arrived? What myths (c 4;) has the world embraced? Who has the courage (d 5;) to be open, listen and speak the truth?

2017 Protests & The Tea Party of 2008

Memories: I participated in the Tea Party Protests of 2008 & 2009. I assisted in the initial spontaneous citizen dialogue using the internet to articulate what it was that was bubbling up from the gut of people across this nation. I wish I had saved my comments from those days for my grand children to read today.

I assisted in the initial spontaneous citizen dialogue using the internet to articulate what it was that was bubbling up from the gut of people across this nation. I wish I had saved my comments from those days for my grand children to read today. When ones American values are being violated is when the gut begins to speak so ones mind and spirit will stop and listen. My values were defined in the Declaration of Independence the founding document for the Constitution – I realized our national leaders had been long straying from the vision of self governess and the creation of new form of government called a Republic when democracy was recognized as a real threat to liberty, freedom and the rights of the people.

I willingly marched on Washington D.C., hosted a local rally and spoke at several others. I probably still have the talks I gave. And no one got paid for what they did.

The Main Stream Media can not fool me with the fake news of yesterday or today. Back then Tea Party protesters were called many names by many of the elected elite of both parties and the main stream media joined in with the powerful – Tea Party = “extremist”, “racist”, “homophobes”, “Nazis” and many more. Tea Party folks showed up at national and state Republican and Democratic Town Hall meetings. No discrimination there = both parties were guilty. And we had many outstanding black and espanic Tea Party supporters. Tea Party folks recognized the federal government was no longer representing the people within either party. Tea Party folks didn’t just whine and complain they worked, organized and offered real solutions which any citizen of party or affiliation was welcome to read.

The hatred expressed by some toward the Tea Party movement made me realize our nation was and is still suffering from a sickness caused by the lust for power and control.When the Tea Party marched on Washington D.C. the capital was cleaner than when they came and no one got hurt or property destroyed.

Compare what is taking place today where people destroy property, beat people up, yell and scream, some are even being paid to shut other voices down in an effort to create an image of unrest yet they offer no solutions and seem bent on attacking only a single party.

When ones American values are being violated is when the gut begins to speak so ones mind and spirit will stop and listen. My values were defined in the Declaration of Independence the founding document for the Constitution – I realized our national leaders had been long straying (almost all of my life) from the vision of self governess and the creation of new form of government called a Republic where democracy was recognized as a real threat to liberty, freedom and the rights of the people.

So many young folks don’t know our nations history and are easily influenced by the creation of an image that may not be true!

Symptoms of a Generational Attack on the American Culture

Completed my annual prison update orientation today. We are being told the new inmates coming into the system are different from previous generations. The one word summary used = “they are unchurched”!

Reflection – and you won’t hear this in church, where happy talk is the model of this modern era — translation the secular progressive movement in our nation has been highly successful in dismantling the cornerstone fortress’s (family and church) which historically protected not only children but civilization.

Seems so many have forgotten our nation really was founded upon a christian/judeo philosophy – freedom of religion and liberty grounded in personal responsibility. Is that taught in school anymore?: For the new age folks – this is a very old story being repeated under our noses lead by the ever sophisticated Hollywood glamor class with values one can find in a septic tank! Oh – if it feels good do as much as you can with as many as you can — there are no consequences and it doesn’t matter who you do it with.

Shut my mouth, should I speak in terms of a philosophy passed on as ages old wisdom and knowledge of “right or wrong” or heaven forbid I use the words “virtue or sin”. The progressives and the young will either try to shut me up or run for the nearest safe zone.

Folks are just misunderstood is the progressive answer! They better watch out – cause the gangs have no respect for safe zones either.

Division in America and Removal of Prayer

Heard Trump say the division in our nation stared before Obama. Then I heard a bone head pundit say it started when Bill Clinton was impeached!

Gosh, I still remember the 1960’s when the secular progressive movement succeeded in scaring people into thinking they couldn’t pray in government schools. I pray everywhere I go – even in a government prison.

Today, I received an official briefing on the impact to the long term removal of prayer – young inmates have no idea how to pray when they need it the most. For many of them the new church is a gang where at lest someone there recognizes they exist.

Assimilation 2017

Do the American people understand what assimilation is? People came to the USA for what America is and not what they left behind.

Grand children pay attention please!

My grandparents came to the USA from Belgium before the turn of the 20th century. They settled in a Belgium settlement and spoke the native language. My father told me he and his brothers refused to speak that language though they could understand it. It was because they wanted to be Americans first. Many years later my father told me he regretted giving up his native tongue but never regretted his loyalty to his new country. Further he told me the Italians and Polish kids did the same though sometimes they clashed because that is what kids do.

American values were and still are christian/judeo values which guarantee the right to life which includes freedom of religion (WHICH MEANS WHAT ONE DOES OUTSIDE OF CHURCH) did not allow anyone to kill anyone for any reason except in self defense.

Secular progressives want to redefine assimilation and freedom of religion to be undermine christian/judeo values and limit religion strictly to what one does in church. They obviously do not like the original founding of America. Separation of church and state is a restriction on the government and not on the people.

Boy do we have problems with those who seek to confuse those who do not know the history of this nation.

Be My Valentine

Be my Valentine

Heard this song this morning — Made me reflect!
Do you want to know what loves it?

I want to know what love is!

http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/fox-and-friends/index.html

Gotta take, a little time to think things over
I better read between the lines, in case I need it when I’m older

Now this mountain I must climb, feels like the world upon my shoulders
Through the clouds I see love shine, it keeps me warm as life grows colder

In my life there’s been heartache and pain
I don’t know if I can face it again
Can’t stop now, I’ve traveled so far, to change this lonely life.

Been to the bowels of Atlanta and stood among those with HIV/AIDS. Watched so many dying, felt their trembling and fear. Watched love being birthed in the darkness, loneliness and depths of distress of facing premature death. And the silent voice crying!

I want to know what love is, I want someone to show me
I want to feel what love is, I know there is someone who can show me

I’m gonna take a little time, a little time to look around me
I’ve got nowhere left to hide, it looks like love has finally found me

Been sent to prison and walked among so many young men filled with anger and fear, some abandoned by father and mother bouncing off the walls searching the depths of the anger and pain seeking to find a glimpse of hope (love) to grasp onto in the darkness.

I’m gonna take a little time, a little time to look around me
I’ve got nowhere left to hide, it looks like love has finally found me

Let’s talk about love, I want to know what love is
The love that you feel inside, I want you to show me

And I’m feeling so much love, I want to feel what love is
No, you just can’t hide, I know you can show me

I want to know what love is (let’s talk about love), I know you can show me
I want to feel it too, I want to feel what love is
I want to feel it too, and I know and I know, I know you can show me
Show me love is real, yeah, I want to know what love is

Every human wants to know — Do you Love me?

2016 Pagan God Ba’al

Ba’al is the pagan god of the old testament. Ba’al seems very much alive in our world today. It is strange that Ba’al would attain a title as the god of fertility because the worship of Ba’al was accompanied by the sacrifice of children by their parents. The altar for Ba’al worship has become the place where fertility takes place in the creation of new life and exists within the mothers womb. Ba’al repeatedly revels what kind of god he is as the practice of sacrificing children is being perfected in the dismembering of a babies body parts only to be outdone when a baby is delivered whole so the body parts can be dismembered more efficiently thus becoming more valuable. Ba’al loves that people pay the price to destroy new life for it is the price we pay to keep Ba’al alive who cannot live without those willing sacrifice ones own soul.

Ba’al has created another non living being to trick and distract those who might begin to recognize Ba’al is really a god who stays alive by bringing death to the living. We call this device a smart phone which seizes it’s victim and takes them for a joy ride through a new reality of cyber space which often excludes an encounter with any other living being. Ba’al has created and has claimed a new nick name – in fact it made it into our national dictionary = “selfie”. For Ba’al knows as long as people stay occupied with the inner space of self they volunteer to disable eyes, ears and spirit to see beyond selfie. Keep them on inside time and entertained is Ba’al goal. Avoid any suffering real life brings so the story of the true God never reaches the ears of worshipers. Avoid at all costs the search for the truth and the purpose of life. Ba’al knows suffering and hardship lead one to dig deep which can result in crying out and thirsting for answers. Worse it could lead to the possibility of committing the mortal sin of becoming open. Spread lies over and over and over to detour people from opening ones critical thinking capacity and cut off the spirit which can lead one to beginning to seek to find the purpose for which one was really created – to encounter life more abundant by reaching out beyond oneself and giving the gift of oneself away to someone else – which just might spread loving and serving others who are struggling through the journey of life.

Ba’al will do anything to avoid and encounter with the story of the first born son who on the cross said – “Forgive them Father for they know not what they are doing!”.
