FEELING GOOD ABOUT FAILURE ?

February 13, 2013 By Leave a Comment

01)  Education

02)  Finance

03)  Politics

04)  BHOB*

 

01)  Education – – Several years ago there was an education statistic that showed America trailing behind most industrialized countries in academics.  BUT, we scored at the very top in how our students felt about their performance.  FEELING GOOD ABOUT FAILURE ?

02)  Finance – – If you didn’t feel good when you buy something you don’t need with a credit card, you wouldn’t go deeper in debt.  Same with national credit card.  FEELING GOOD ABOUT FAILURE ? ?

03)  Politics – – Politicians promise.  We like what they say.  We send them to Washington.  They get disabled.  They go on welfare.  They like it.  They want to stay.  They lie.  We forget.  They promise again.  We like what they say . . .  Repeat.  FEELING GOOD ABOUT FAILURE ? ? ?

04)  BHOB* – – The brilliant, divine master of charm and speeches and promises (aka reruns) has again outdone himself, making Americans feel good about his failure. The messiah, our savior, our daddy in Washington is a miracle worker—we believe him, we trust him, we do what he says because we know he’ll take care of us.  We feel good when he speaks, and that makes the problems go away.  FEELING GOOD ABOUT FAILURE ? ? ? ?

SOMEDAY, soon, when the dictatorship kicks in with full force, BHOB*’s worshipers will not feel good about the failure.

 

Marco Rubio immediately discredited the label “savior” referring to him, properly stating there is only one Savior, Jesus.  God Bless you for that, Senator Rubio.  BHOB* has accepted all public, divine accolades by not denying them.

 

Simple formula for a rising dictator:

“Tell the people a lie often enough, and they will believe it is the truth”

.     —–Adolf Hitler (it worked for him)

Tell the people that failure is success.  And keep telling them to feel good about it.

.     —–Barack Hussein Obama (it’s working for him)

 

“BHOB* is the most transparent liar ever to aspire to dictatorship.”  (from yesterday’s article “OBAMA CARES ?” before the state of the union speech)

 

*Barack Hussein OBama—Say BHHHOB aloud and it sounds like the warning for Christians in the 2008 election:  “Beware of sheep’s clothing.”

INFERTILE GAYS BUY A BABY

February 12, 2013 By Leave a Comment

What percentage of gay couples are infertile?

100% of gay couples are incapable of making a baby, ever.

Why?

Because it takes a man and a woman to make a baby.

Because it takes a father and a mother to raise a child.*

Because God made it so.

Because God said so.

 

*My heart and my prayers for single parents, raising children alone and not by choice.

PASS IT ON – – – WHAT IS “IT”

February 11, 2013 By

In the past every American family, every American community, every American church, every American school, everyone knew there was a package that we valued and that we vowed to pass on intact to the next generation.

And we did it.  There was something stable and consistent from one generation to the next.  You could ask almost anyone, even dissenters to the culture, and they would know what was in the package.  Individually and collectively we stood for something, and we made absolutely certain that our children knew what it was.

What was it?

and

Does it exist today?

The package was simple but deep, solid and constant, and relevant.  Everyone knew what was expected of him, and most people fulfilled that expectation.  Children learned at an early age what was right and wrong, and they saw that everybody agreed on what was right and wrong, making it hard to get away with wrong.

Responsibility, hard work, education, faith, and sacrifice for others made the family strong and the community strong and the country strong.  And everyone knew they could count on everyone else to fight off any intrusion that might weaken what they believed in and agreed upon.

“Little House On The Prairie” and “Love Comes Softly” and “The Waltons” are not fairy tales and made-up dreams, but instead they capture for us the heart and soul of the way it was in this country.  If these stories idolize the ideal, they accurately reflect the courage and persistence that dreamed up this country in the first place, and kept it going and expanding against all odds and all enemies.

What we feel when we watch these pioneers of the past, is the central ingredient of “it” in the title of this piece.  “It” was passed on through families—strongholds—fortresses against every evil.  They worked harder than we do, but they did not let busy-ness and stuff and unwholesome entertainment pull their families apart.

Now, does “it” exist today?

Yes, it does, if . . .

If you feel something good when you see the American flag.

If you feel something good when you hear “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

If you feel something good when you see a family together.

If you feel something good when you open your Bible.

If you feel something good when you see someone in military uniform.

If you feel something good when you see movies like the above.

If you feel something bad when you watch anything that’s not good for you.

If you feel something bad when someone you know goes the wrong direction.

If you feel something strongly enough to make a difference in someone’s life when it is not convenient.

If you feel something strongly enough to right a wrong because you know right from wrong.

If you feel something strongly enough to still take time with God and time with a young person.

If you believe we can recapture what we had in this country, then we still have “it”.

Then “it” does exist today.

Then we can pass “it” on again.

It’s up to you and me.

I MADE MY DADDY HAPPY

February 10, 2013 By Leave a Comment

AND MAMA TOO.

When I was very young, on the way home from church I shared the Bible verse I learned in Sunday School, “We love Him because He first loved us.”

When I was in my 20’s, teaching fourth graders in a Christian school 1500 miles away, I heard my dad say numerous times on the phone, “I’m so glad you’re telling those little lambs about Jesus.”

Someday I’ll sing with Mom and Dad,

“I love you, Lord, and I lift my voice

.       To worship You.  Oh my soul, rejoice.

Take joy, my King [My Heavenly Daddy], in what you hear;

.       May it be a sweet, sweet sound in Your ear.”

WHEN YOU “HAVE TO” DO SOMETHING

February 9, 2013 By Leave a Comment

The question is this:  When will Americans reach the point when we have to do something?

So far, the average citizens have their hands full keeping up with their bills, their jobs, their families.  Actually, that is how it is supposed to be in our free country—we’re alive and we have freedom to work to pursue happiness for ourselves and those we love—the first words of our Constitution.

But the day has come when we have to do something, like our founding fathers did to create this awesome country.

History repeats itself.  Can America repeat its exceptionalism, or will America repeat the demise of every other country in pursuit of decadence.

—The Chinese students “had to” protest in Tienanmen Square.

—Chinese Communist leaders “had to” mow down the students with tanks.

—In Cairo, thousands “had to” protest with sticks and stones.

—Muslim Brotherhood “had to” seize the opportunity to take over Egypt.

—Over half a million, especially young people, “had to” march for life in Washington.

—The media “had to” ignore the March for Life.

—Truckers will eventually “have to” protest high diesel prices.

—The administration in Washington “has to” raise fuel prices by killing drilling.

—Hitler “had to” kill Jews.

—Politicians “have to” sanction killing of babies.

—Politicians “have to” sanction gun control so we can’t prevent killing of our babies that survive their first nine months of life.

—Homeland Security, IRS, Forest Service, etc. “have to” stockpile five to six rounds of hollow-point for every single American for ‘domestic’ use.

—Everybody “has to” tolerate everybody, except Christians and conservatives and patriots and . . .

 

—The question is this:  When will Americans reach the point when we “have to” do something that we are not ready to do yet?

MONEY VISION – – – DO YOU NEED GLASSES?

February 8, 2013 By Leave a Comment

If you have money, you will look at life through the lens of money.

If you do not have money, you may still look at life through the lens of money.

The lens of money leaves you miserable.

How about this advice:

“Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, Who gives us richly all things to enjoy;

That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share;

Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.”

“Those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and damnation.”

“Having food and clothing, with these let us be content.”

“Godliness with contentment is great gain.”

 

Money vision – – – Do we need glasses?

Yes.  Try the lens of contentment.

CHECKS AND BALANCES—CHECKED OUT

February 8, 2013 By Leave a Comment

1961, 1962  The Judicial Branch of the U.S. Government officially checked God out of America when it got rid of Prayer and the Ten Commandments in school.

2013  The Executive Branch of the U.S. Government officially checked God out of America when it approved the inaugural invocation with “One nation, [ . . . ] indivisible, with . . .”

. . . . .  For many years now, the Legislative Branch of the U.S. Government has checked God out of America by miserable default.

GET IN “TOUCH” ON-LINE

February 7, 2013 By 2 Comments

There are a few of us who still do not use all the options for “connecting” on the internet.

There are even fewer who see major human problems developing with communication technology.

‘Get in touch on line’ is an oxymoron to me, and yet many people accept using the system to the hilt.

The meaning of ‘communication’ has changed.  The meaning of ‘friend’ has changed.  The meaning of ‘like’ has changed.  The meaning of ‘connecting’ has changed.

A vital, close, human relationship requires communication, but communication does not make a relationship.  We must get closer than just communication.  We need eye contact and touch to complete a relationship.

The closest human relationship makes the point most dramatically.

Can on-line marriage counseling be enough?

Can on-line marriage rebuilding be complete?

On-line marriage intimacy is absurd.

 

Getting in touch on-line has severely watered down many words that are essential to close, meaningful, human relationships.  And these simple words that expressed and protected fresh, fragile, deep connections from heart to heart, have not been replaced, leaving unexpressed vast voids in the hearts of many.

We know people who don’t understand this or don’t care, and so we substitute more and more time punching keys and “communicating” in ways that actually keep us farther apart.

Relationships? – – – too busy to build the real thing, in person, with time, and touch.

Think about it.  Today, try to build a real relationship with a real person, in real life, with a real face, with a real touch showing the real meaning of like, with a real hug showing the real meaning of friend, communicating and connecting———-outside of technology.

What a difference you could make!
