Making a Difference in your Life, in the Parts that are for Keeps!
I accept my husband’s leadership in our home.
Meaning–I yield to my husband’s decisions, without reservations.
or
I accept my husband’s leadership in our home, if he . . .
Meaning—I can’t commit to literally following my husband’s leadership, when doing so doesn’t match with what I say or think.
“The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil.”
+Prosperity Worship—American churchgoers are the perfect candidates for blending the American dream of success with evil spiritual promises.
+Cheap China Products—The lure of getting more stuff for less has trapped us in the jaws of the greatest evil empire in the world.
+American Church Impotence—The church’s wholescale participation in the money system of the culture has canceled the church’s power to speak out against evil in the culture.
+Vaccine Mandates—Lots of money and lots of power are driving the evil motivation for all the mandates, and the eager capitulation to comply.
+Dictatorial Insurance—The motivations of fear and getting more than you spend, create fertile ground for evil to monopolize control through insurance.
+Portfolio Idolatry—Laying up treasures on earth is the epitome of the love of money, because it is evil to ignore the words of Jesus, “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust corrupt, and where thieves break in and steal. Do lay up treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not corrupt, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For, where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
On Friday, August 6, at the capitol in Lansing, MI—a protest against the mandated covid vaccine.
The leader of the protest, interviewed on AFR (on Sandy Rios In The Morning), said,
“We must experience some pain personally, to successfully revolt against the government.”
“Give the devil a little finger, and he’ll take the whole hand.”
Daddy often quoted that saying, that fact.
The first time I heard him use it was when I was in fourth grade in a Christian school, operated by the church we attended.
The church leadership lost interest, passion, for supporting the school, and voted to cancel the seventh and eighth grades the next school year.
So the saying came true a year later when I finished the fifth grade, and they closed the whole school.
The Godlessness I experienced in public school the next year grieved Daddy severely, the full extent of which I could never know.
But the lifetime effect gave me a passion for Christian education (church schools, private Christian schools, home schools) that likely exceeds Daddy’s.
He ‘gave his last drop of blood’ for Christian education, and so have I (as a student, as a teacher, as a parent, as an advocate).
My dearest memory of the last few years of Daddy’s life, when I was teaching fourth grade in Hollywood, Florida, was his repeated comment on the phone, “I’m so glad you’re telling these little lambs about Jesus.”
That kept this teacher going, on a mission commissioned by God Himself.

Then, after my years of teaching, I designed and manufactured and installed playground equipment for 25 years, applying my intense insight in child development.
I asked God to provide two things:
+enough money to feed my four children, and
+enough money to send them to Christian schools through eighth grade.
He did—well-fed, healthy, outstanding athletes—and 38 combined years in Christian schools with full tuition and other costs totaling well over a hundred thousand dollars.
And only two years during that time did my income reach twenty-five thousand dollars.
I share that to show (through three generations) the power of God, and the passion of God, and the provision of God—honoring what Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not forbid them.”
“Two percent of the committed overrule ninety-eight percent of the indifferent.”—-Brigitte Gabriel (Act For America)

January 11, 2020, on AWordforThought.com, I made a prediction that was rather obvious, but not so pleasant.
Please look and read the entire article:
2020—A CLEAR SPIRITUAL VISION
This was the prediction:
In 2020 —It will become harder to be a Christian, but it will be easier to tell who is a Christian.
Wow! What a year.
By the end of the year I realized a further insight from that statement.
It is getting easier to tell who is a Christian BECAUSE it is getting harder to be a Christian.

At the beginning of 2021, I predicted that:
By the middle of the year, we would start seeing limits on some products and services.
By the end of the year, we will see gas and diesel between $4 and $5 a gallon.

Now, in light of the ominous indicators for upsets in the next election, I predict that those currently in power in Washington will make all their moves before then, to achieve permanent control of America.

Fellow Americans, fellow Christians, fasten your seat belts—on your knees!
Then stand up, and speak up—speak the truth whenever you hear fake, false, or phony ideas.
More fake news—vs—more truth.
There is an increasingly competitive race between those presenting the lies of fake news and those presenting the truth.
It has become clear to both sides that the stakes are high, and the time is short—one side is going to win, and one is going to lose.
Normalcy is unsustainable as change is accelerating everywhere.
Most have increased anxiety—aware that something is about to break loose—something that will dramatically upset our everyday lives.
Those bent on destroying America are capitalizing on everything they can to create fear in Americans, that will in turn give them more power.
The increased intensity to push mandates for more control of our lives, brings greater threatening rhetoric from officials, and ominous alarmist assumptions from the media.
Those who have consistently accepted as fact the reports of the media and the claims of politicians, are increasingly questioning everything they’ve been told.
And these people are discovering alternate news sources, to hear the truth.
The competition between fake and true is desperately becoming ‘life and death.’
Lies are exposed by truth.
Truth is incomplete without Biblical truth.
It is impossible to get a Biblical perspective on the news by starting your day with the news.
It is impossible to get a Biblical perspective on the news by ending your day with the news.
American Family Radio tells the truth from a Biblical perspective about everything going on today (afr.net and 180 stations).
The race, the competition between truth and falsehood, is a war—a spiritual war for the soul of America, for the soul of Americans, for your soul and mine.
Listen to afr.net.
Open your Bible.
Talk to the Author.
Ask Him for wisdom.
Now.
“When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty.”—–Sandy Rios (afr.net)
The mandate for all Americans to wear masks came with a lot of questions about their effectiveness and a lot of questions about their side effects.
Sadly, unbelievably, nearly universal, willing compliance by Americans is still baffling, and scary.
The conditioning of unsuspecting citizens has been very effective, to get the population accustomed to further mandates of government control.

The current mandate from the government for all Americans to get new ‘vaccines’ comes with a lot of questions about their effectiveness and a lot of questions about their side effects.
Thankfully, hopefully, there is growing pushback by Americans about the vaccine mandate.
The most telling warning—the waving red flag—right now is the severity with which the government is accelerating its push for control, requiring a third of Americans to face losing their jobs if they don’t get ‘vaccinated.’
If Americans cannot resist—revolt—against this power grab, then it may well be too late to stop anything the government will do.
