How often Christians post 2 Chronicles 7:14 (CJB used here) on social sites, yet completely miss who God is speaking to and what His requirements are: “...then, if my people, who bear my name, will humble themselves, seek my face and turn from their evil ways, I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin and heal their land.” Almighty God is speaking to His Ekklesia, … [Read more...] about “There Is No Political Solution to A Spiritual Problem” (– Steve Quayle)

Bargain Hunting At The Goodwill
This month, my daughter Pat, grandson John, and I went shopping at the Goodwill store. This was my first time shopping at a Goodwill in many moons. John is a veteran Goodwill shopper. He could spot something unique, and if the price seemed right, he immediately checked Amazon or another site to verify the price or authenticity. I was also surprised to learn that John makes … [Read more...] about Bargain Hunting At The Goodwill
Why Old Men Can’t Find “Young Love”
Let's not pretend it's not an issue: "Old" and "Older" men need and want love and connection as much as women. Perhaps even a lot more.
Long-standing retired widowers have difficulty dealing with advanced age, especially if looking for a younger woman. They they have a lot of issues to overcome that are related to advanced age:

Perspective, Proportion And Propaganda
Everything here will connect to October 7, 2023. I promise.
Was everything perfect in the USA, say, in 2019? Of course not. However, gasoline was under $2 a gallon in many places. Cost of living, though it could have been better, was more affordable, including for many fixed-income people (usually seniors). We were energy independent and top exporter of cleanly … [Read more...] about Perspective, Proportion And Propaganda
I Am Doing Well
I am doing well (some days), but on the days I am not, I spend them thanking God for my life and the life I still enjoy, and I thank Him for my children.
This part of the journey has not been without its lessons, as we know God wraps every situation in a blessing box and offers it to us even amid our grief.
My eldest daughter went to pick up her little … [Read more...] about I Am Doing Well
Are You an Empowered Patient?
I recently needed to change my healthcare provider from a PPO to an HMO. I had been used to seeing a naturopath for in-depth blood work. So much information can be learned from blood work.
My recent trip to a "regular" MD made me feel I knew more than she did regarding nutrition and how food affects the body. The one issue I can't seem to hack is better sleep. I … [Read more...] about Are You an Empowered Patient?
Vaccine Hesitancy
Many people, including some of the early supporters of the COVID "vaccine," are beginning to realize they were lied to by the government. Worse, some early supporters lost long-term relationships with friends who cautioned against getting a shot. Remember "the good old days" when you were scorned as a "vaccine denier" or "spreader of the virus if you didn't get vaccinated" … [Read more...] about Vaccine Hesitancy
Touch Deprivation
Recently, I've seen articles about "touch deprivation." With young people constantly all over each other with displays of public affection, I thought we had become a "touchy-feely" culture, but maybe I'm wrong. Perhaps young people hug and touch each other without thinking about it, but the "old folks"? Not so much.
I was aware of the "touch deprivation thing" … [Read more...] about Touch Deprivation
We Need A Miracle
First, you won’t believe how brief I’m going to be this month. Here goes...
These days, we’re inundated with reminders of what’s wrong with the world rather than being reminded of what’s right with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We need to remind ourselves that God is evermore with those who are His sons and daughters called by His Name and that we are to … [Read more...] about We Need A Miracle
Blood Sugar Regulation Emergency!
For those in the USA, I hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving. For the most part, the traditional Thanksgiving meal is full of refined carbohydrates. Just about everything we consume in our holiday meals has added sugar. My Thanksgiving meal was no exception. I roasted the obligatory turkey with all the sides you'd expect from the stuffing, cranberry sauce, my mother's famous … [Read more...] about Blood Sugar Regulation Emergency!
