Let me first say that the number one job since September 11 is to prevent a terrorist attack on American soil. Last time I checked there has not been such an attack. My purpose here today is again stand in defense of the president. This morning I was listening to Bill Bennett on his radio show and I got upset. Not only has Bush had to defend himself against liberals with and agenda and who only speak to malign the president, but he has also had to defend himself against so called c...
POLITICS I am really running out of commentary on the current political situation in the USA. However, I know have alluded to today’s point before, but I want to hone it down. I think the 2008 election is more about the integrity and honesty of the American citizen then the politicians. Politicians will always be who they are, which in my opinion is a bunch of self-serving individuals only concerned with their bank accounts. Who knows maybe there are some good politic...
POLITICS It appears that people are impressed with Oprah Wimphrey’s support for Borak Obama. To this I say no matter how much attention or support Obama gets from the rich and famous he still is a naïve and inexperienced person who does not deserve the presidency of the Unites States of America. I have heard him speak. I am surprised some one with a law degree and who used to be a law professor has such little understanding on how America’s business should be handled. ...
“What profits a man if he gains the word, but looses his soul?” Today, this spiritual question is on my mind. I think many of us are under the impression that we are totally in charge of our lives. God created the universe. It is His system of justice that is employed and in operation. To me, getting everything we want out of life without the searching for the will of God is “gaining the world”. Therefore, by implication we have lost our soul. If you look at the world yo...
POLITCIS Well here is another blog article I do not want to write. However, what happened in the last republican presidential debate is of substantial importance. Let me say that I believe in every person’s right to respectfully express his or her opinion. However, when you are a professional news agency you are suppose to report the news, not make it. I think it was shameful of CNN to load the questions from people who are obviously supporters of the other political...
The last entry I included some thoughts on parenting. I forgot to mention the part about stress. One of the reasons ranting an raving is not desired is the stress on the child and the parent. Children do not have our understanding of vocabulary and human behavior. Yelling mostly is interpreted as a threat, which illicit fear responses. Which in other words means you are scaring the child and inflicting psychological distress. The parent also senses fear response of guilt a...
POLITICS I think the most important person in these next elections will be the voter. The fact that less than 40 percent of eligible American voters actually vote is very discouraging. An even more discouraging thought is that many Americans need the news to tell them what to feel and think. RELIGION You do not have to believe in God to be subject to His judgment and justice. MENTAL HEALTH I have had parenting on the brain. My concern is all the parents that beli...
In this day of giving thanks I give thanks for God. We can very easily get lost, if left to our own devices. For all you do, even though we do not deserve it, thank you very much God. Thank you for your love. Thank you for your concern. Thank you for your guidance. Thank you for your protection. Thank you for dying so we could live. Thank you for not giving up on us. Thank you for everything you have done for me that I have forgotten.
Okay, so I have not written in some days. Let me say that the reason is that I am so disgusted by what I see in the USA in regards to politics. The average American still needs the news media to tell them what to think and feel. The news media spends its' time obssessed with the democrats and only mentions the republican presidential candidates as a side bar to a democrat story. I am wondering when the American citizen is going to realize the significant times we all stand in today.

SPIRITUALITY AND FAITH The one missing ingredient many critics of Christians miss is the love of and for God. When you encounter Jesus Christ you realize that a loving God is interested in you. It is this love that energizes your spiritual growth. In addition, after an encounter with Jesus the Holy Spirit comes and lives in you. From that point forward you will be under the direction of the Holy Spirit who is helping you grow spirituality. Therefore, critics who have...
RELIGION My first thought today will be on faith and spirituality. I think that many people confuse religion with these two issues. Let me say that people who have had a personal encounter with Jesus Christ and are sincere in their faith in God and spiritual journey with Jesus Christ do not need to prove them selves to any one. Second, I do not believe that a person who can quote some of the Bible, has not had a personal encounter with Christ, does not go to church...
My point of contention today is on Giuliani integrity and the issue of trust. I ask, “if a person acts as an abortion rights and homosexual rights person 365 days out of the year how can you trust him to appoint conservative judges to the American Supreme Court”? In addition, I add, “Doesn’t action mean more than rhetoric?” Yesterday I wrote that this voting season the integrity of the voter is what is going to be documented. This is not any regular voting season. Politics as...
Today I plan to keep it short and sweet. I think that what will come out of the election of 2008 is record of all the people who still do not think it is important to get involved and protect America with their vote.
What is life? Well I have written on this issue before. Friends, family, dreams, hope, accomplishments, achievements, goals, personal interest, needs, wants, desire, relationship with God, salvation through Jesus Christ. Now, people respond to my observation “No? Really dummy!” You would be surprised how many people have no idea about how to live a full and pleasing life. Many of us think that career dreams make a life. Money is needed in our society. However, God made the human to ...
The big issue here in this political season of 2008 is where are the citizens. Many polls record that 80 percent of Americans include God in their life. If this is so, then abortion should not exist in this country. How can you talk to God but not stand up in defense of His greatest creation, humanity? In addition, these are serious times. There is a group of people who want to destroy everything that is not they. The next president of the USA has to see this threat as real threat...
