THE REAL WORK BEGINS WITH EACH OF US. ARE YOU READY?

Many have opined and prayed for several years for a miracle for America. Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan is not a description of what we should expect any one man will do. I am sick of people announcing that they are going to sit back, watch, and give the man a fair chance of making America great again. Frankly, this slogan is not a referendum for one person to accomplish. It is NOT a referendum for one political party. In case you did not understand what is supposed to happen in America now, let me explain it to you. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WILL MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN – OR THEY WON’T. Time will tell.

It is high time the American people took back their country. To make America great again, will require a LOCAL EFFORT from coast to coast. Requiring every city in America pushing a winning agenda to state governors, state legislatures, and federally to both Houses of Congress. We have a President-Elect who will fight for our American jobs, American business endeavors, and all American families. WE THE PEOPLE NEED TO BE READY IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS TO MAKE KNOWN THE AGENDA WE WANT. If you want to start a business, already own a business, or work for a business, you need to tell our government what it is your service or industry needs to be successful, and provide jobs for all who want to be a part of THE AMERICAN DREAM.

Whether you are a farmer, shoemaker, clothes maker, cement maker, homemaker or builder of homes, computer maker, hospital, own rent homes or apartments, run a school or are a home-schooler, dress maker, pie baker, furniture builder, etc., etc., etc. YOU NEED TO LET YOUR POLITICIANS KNOW WHAT YOU NEED TO BE — SUCCESSFUL – TO BRING OUR INDUSTRIES AND JOBS HOME!!!

Every American should start looking at what we import from other countries, and ask ourselves how do we start making these things in America.
AMERICANS NEED TO BAND TOGETHER TO TELL OUR POLITICIANS WHICH REGULATIONS AND LAWS HURT AMERICAN BUSINESS, AMERICAN INDUSTRY, AMERICAN FAMILIES, AND WHY.

Americans need to be networking on a scale that hasn’t been seen since before computers made us all lazy. Business used to be conducted at social enterprises such as golf clubs, Elks Clubs, Moose Clubs, Veterans Clubs, Kiwanis, Lions, PTA, Alumni, Rotary, Chamber of Commerce, Every Town Council meeting should be packed to the rafters, Petroleum, Pharma, Medical, School Board Meetings, Business Networking International, Women In Business, Convention & Business Bureaus for every trade and service industry, OPTIMISTS for crying out loud!, Think Tanks for every industry that exists or has left our nation, Local Merchants Associations, CHURCHES, etc. etc. etc.

It is shameful how membership in social clubs has dwindled to almost extinction since the computer made us all social couch potatoes. Does your town have a Junior League? Does anyone remember what it was all about? The Junior League is an organization of women committed to promoting voluntarism in any city, or town. Thriving cities can be gauged by the volume of active social and charitable associations.

John and I dressed to the 9’s Saturday night and attended a charity event. I haven’t felt that much alive in a very long time. We were in a ballroom full of people enjoying dinner, dancing, silent and live auctions with one thing in mind – raising enough money to make a difference in the lives of many people. The Health Alliance of Clinton County financially assisting with health-related needs in the extended community. We were so pleased to be able to give – and we are seniors on a fixed income. A community that involves itself in fulfilling the needs of the community on a personal level is an indicator of a thriving community. Instead of the government deciding how to spend your hard-earned dollars for “charity” (often not actually helping anyone in need), it is important for the well-being of all citizens to be personally involved in helping others.

The quandary in “Making America Great Again” is the double nature of money. Spending money – spreading it around locally – is what every economy needs to grow. At the same time, Americans will need to spend wisely to keep our families’ hearth and home safe from going under as we re-build Americas industries.

We must return America to that which our moral compass was anchored in when Washington and his Congress dedicated America to our Christian God. Christian Americans (80+% of population) got out and voted on November 8 in a unified effort to return America to its moral origins, which will in turn return America to prosperity, and God’s protection. We must abandon Secular Christianity rooted in the wrong idea of other religions being the same as ours. We must return to Biblical Christianity, and the Gospel regarding Jesus, to navigate America back on solid moral ground. The real work begins with each of us. Are you ready?

FROM THE HEART – FOR ALL CHRISTIANS

Before I get to the subject matter of importance today –
the next time someone starts squawking at you about:
global cooling (which had man’s total destruction about twenty years ago), global warming (which had man’s total destruction up to about a year  ago), and now global climate change (at some future date they keep  changing – yes, they are soooooo smart they cannot decide whether it will be cooling or heating that will kill us all – soon),
Please remember weather events such as the “dustbowl” (1934 – 1937 drought over many farming states during The Great Depression),
‘1900 Galveston Hurricane’ (look it up to be horrified),
many Nor’easters (nor’easter is basically when a big storm moving across the country from west to east meets a big storm from the Atlantic into America mid to above the Carolinas),
and all the recorded climate catastrophes
over thousands of years of man’s written word.

Many think we are in the end time scenario of the Bible; but are we? Well, it is a hard point to argue against when we look around our nation today. But, we are to carry on in faith until the Lord comes for His own, His church. As I look at America today, I can scarcely believe my eyes and ears. Men of religious authority are teaching the flock of things apostate in nature. Preaching such shocking and twisted doctrine such as basing one’s ministry on riches for works, of reparations from the innocent, of re-defining Jesus’ definition of marriage . . . I even heard from the grapevine, of those in the know, of a major leader claiming God is telling him to nix a Commandment, add to another, and to create a whole new one.  To make a complete list of such twisted doctrine would require more documentary space than anyone would endure to read. But we have clear authority in the Bible to describe this phenomenon . . .

2 Timothy 4:3-4 (KJV)

“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.”

How could any Christian read the Parables in Matthew, and live their lives willfully against the life lessons He gave to all of us? Upon judgement, telling God that you had an Earthly teacher lead you astray will not help you.

We look around at our world that is changing rapidly. What would not have been acceptable even 40 years ago barely phases a desensitized America. To put a name to the sins  . . .

Pride (Satan fell from grace over this one.)

Stirring up dissention.

Murder.

Lying.

Cheating.

Vanity.

Greed.

Envy.

Laziness.

Wrath.

Lust.

Gluttony.

Fornication. (Premarital sex, extramarital sex, any sex outside Jesus definition of marriage.)

Rape.

Some of these are actually offshoots of others on this list – but, most folks don’t think things through far enough to see that truth. Vanity covers a multitude of offshoots. I am sure there are many offshoots of these above, but you can see the words, and should have the ability to self-govern yourselves just as the Christian American Founders knew you could when they wrote The Declaration of Independence, and The Constitution.

OH !!!!! My bad! The Greatest Political Experiment EVER died a slow death, when too many Americans stopped being able to Self-Govern themselves. They pushed The Lord out of their lives, families, schools, businesses, churches, entertainment, and local / state / federal governments. Without being the strong CHRISTIAN nation we once were, we no longer required the citizens to conduct themselves according to God’s Commandments, and The Lessons of The Lords Parables.

If Christians were all truly Christian, when they confessed their sins to The Lord, with penitent hearts, they would be changed . . . And the nation would not be run by unholy liars and cheats, and our children would not be out of reasonable control. Our entertainment would not be the stuff of the list above.

Today I read . . . Matthew 20:17 -19

“And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples apart in the way, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again.”

Jesus came to teach, to tell us to love one another, and to sacrifice Himself to cover our sin – eradicated by His blood, then to come back to be seen by hundreds, thus proving what He told us is true.  We each decide for ourselves. When we become His, we are changed, and that list above becomes our list of things we endeavor to not do. We have a list that soon replaces the negative, and endeavor to live in the positive . . .

Christian Love.

Humility.

Healing.

TRUTH.

Faith.

Generosity.

Charity.

Honest Endeavor.

When I read the Matthew scripture above, I remembered that we are supposed to live our lives with Jesus as our example. How many of our leaders are a good example for our children? If not, why are they in office? How many of you are good replacement examples?

If you are a God fearing Christian, changed forever with Baptism by The Holy Spirit, go to my commentaries in webcommentary.com under Juanita Holloway-Walters and read a few of the “Why Not Me?” Commentaries. Hopefully you will be set on fire for being whoever you and The Lord knows you are. Pray for the Lord to lead you to much better teachers than me, or make you a better teacher. Then you will be able to follow through with your God given rights and talents to be an amazing example. When there are enough of you in your families and communities, you will set your community on fire to do positive things together. You will become examples to all of our children.

Your positivity in your faith will stop the negative folks in their current paths. The negative folks will either crawl back under the evil rock they came from, or they, too, in your love for the enemy, will find their evil natures shrink to make room for Godly purpose.

God bless and keep you and yours. America is counting on you.

IT IS YOUR CALL, AND TIME IS SHORT

Human Nature, whether we are talking about one person or a group of people, is the same everywhere. It is the cause and effect of millions of individuals living their lives in agreed upon similar fashion that creates truly great and positive nations. The opposite would be individuals living their lives in conflict and chaos that creates truly meager and negative nations. Some societies lost control over their outcome a long time ago, and it is almost like they do not have human genes, but instead, the genes of some self-destructive species. Some societies are so far into their dysfunction as to be anti-life. Sadly, America has been slowly, but steadily on this destructive path for about a hundred years. Why sad? There has been no other nation of great providence and human endeavor on earth like America, and she is losing her life-blood in a day by day deterioration. Whether all humankind around the world realizes it or not, their anger at America is primarily caused by their individual loss of hope deep in their souls. Where America goes – so goes the world.

When America was in her founding years, and even through the immediate decades after WWII, she gave hope to the rest of the world. Immigrants came to America to become Americans, and to live the American dream. The American dream was tied up in families of faith and values, education, and positive endeavors. Sinister anti-American forces have slowly deteriorated our educational system, our family system, our Judeo-Christian value system and morality, our state and federal governments, and even our military. The deterioration is like a cancer that grew so slowly, we scarcely noticed it until it accelerated in the last few decades.

Historically, our culture has been a culture of life, liberty, and man’s pursuit of property and fraternity yielding respect and reverence for our very faith guided providence and productive reason. Our natural enemies understand what I am about to share with you. I tell you freely that I am not only Christian, but have had an occasion to witness (many years ago) a miracle in the form of divine connection and revelation. I believe that God wanted me to come to Christianity without ever joining a church – or being involved in any certain Christian denomination for much time. I actually believe the denominations are presently dividing us, but that thought process has been covered in older commentaries. What I wish to share with you has come to me through direct experience in life, and my quest to educate myself regarding reasons for dysfunction in families, and how to fix it.

Yesterday, I had an epiphany regarding the mass anti-life behavior of many in America, and why America is in a systemic destruction sequence. I think I have direct experience with the phenomenon that is killing our Republic. I believe our enemies understand it very well. If it is God’s will, then there isn’t much we can do about it. But, we are not supposed to make such assumptions. As long as we are here on planet earth, we are supposed to carry on in love and in positive endeavor until such time as God, our Creator, decides it is time for Him to take direct action.

When I sought help to understand why I was a dysfunctional person I had to examine who I am in some detail. So much of who I was did not need any fixing . . . responsible, hard-working, and I loved being a wife and mother. My emotions were the dysfunction that did a self-destruct when picking a partner. I had an immature victim mentality that needed to evolve into maturity. My emotional pendulum was way out in some unhealthy zone of existence. I was warned by a very smart psychologist that upon correction my emotional pendulum would swing way out in the extreme opposite direction. One of two possible outcomes would happen in time. Either my emotional pendulum would level out in the middle healthy zones of existence, or it would erroneously stay way out there in a zone that is not conducive for a peaceful and happy life. For me those extreme zones consisted of the victim zone at one end of the pendulum swing, and the other extreme end of that pendulum swing is one who abuses others either mentally or physically. Thankfully, it settled about center, and I have been in a harmonious relationship with John since 1995. Our marriage is considered to be an amazingly happy and healthy example to follow by those that know us.

So, the epiphany . . .
In the first hundred years of America’s existence there was so much good happening that men and women with excellent values worked hard to not rock the boat of all the good things while trying to end the practice of slavery. Slavery has existed around the globe from almost the beginning of time. Today, for example, sexual slavery exists around the globe in abundance. At the time of America’s founding Black men and White men engaged in the slave trade. It should be noted that the majority of Americans did not own slaves, and many worked to end slavery from the very beginning. Only 25% of Colonial Americans owned slaves – and some of those slave owners were themselves Black. “Approximately 625,000 men died in the Civil War, more Americans than in World War I, World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War combined. If the names of the Civil War dead were arranged like the names on the Vietnam Memorial, it would stretch over 10 times the wall’s length.”(1) Over 90% of the troops were White, and the balance of the troops was primarily Black.

White Americans paid a huge price for the cause of ending slavery in America. For those Americans today who are descendants of Civil War troops, I say to you that we paid our debt to America’s slaves in our ancestor’s blood. Many Americans, like me, are descended from immigrants who came to America after the era of slavery. Our enemies within America have been like our “psychologist” whom made us feel ashamed for slavery of which we are not the guilty parties. Most of us are no more responsible for the problems of the Black American than we are for the existence of fish in the sea. These same enemy “psychologist” in America, has kept the Black people in poverty, while stirring them up in hate and racism. The Black Americans who are not consumed with hate and racism are those who are involved in their education and endeavors of their hearts desires – the same as White Americans. The majority of the violence perpetrated upon Black people in America, is directly caused by other Black people in America – Black on Black crime is epidemic in proportion. The “Black Ghetto Pimps” keep their fellow Black Americans down with lies and social programs that do not improve any Black person’s situation in life one iota. These primarily Black “Pimps” get rich off of the misery they have created for their race.

America’s psychological pendulum has swung from a society sickened and horrified with the disease of slavery, to a society sick with false White guilt, and Black prejudices and hate instigated and perpetrated on a deliberately dumbed down society. The liberal and progressive political force in America has purposely enslaved the votes of the Black population by breaking up their families and giving just enough welfare to make them dependent – NOT INDEPENDENT. Even though the majority of Baby Boomers were actively involved in reversing racism by raising our children to be color blind, the “Pimps”, and our political enemies within, have been busy inciting division and racism. America’s psychological pendulum swung from one end of the spectrum to the other end, and it needs to come back to center for America to be the nation we were designed to be. For that to happen, every American citizen must wake up from the hypnotism that controls us, and reject the enemies within and the “Pimps.” We must unite and be the united force for a non-violent, centered and healthy America. We must unite and elect from among ourselves men of the uniting vision of Martin Luther King – by judging each other based on our character, and NOT the color of our skin. Our human souls have no color.

When the world sees us through the lens of our renewed Judeo-Christian values, we will once again be the nation others want to emulate. We must unite and reject all of the crap our enemy has lured us to:
–     the anti-life television shows and movies inundated with violence and negative morality lessons that desensitize our offspring and ourselves;
–     the multitudes of laws that seek to make law-breakers out of all citizens in order to control them like animals;
–     the trend in our Administration, Judiciary, and Congress to NOT DO THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE;
–     the trends in our Administration, Judiciary, and Congress to destroy our American Citizens Bill of Rights and our Constitution;
–     the trends in our Administration, Judiciary, and Congress to destroy all endeavors of the small to medium businesses which are Americas #1 employers;
–     the trends in our Administration, Judiciary, and Congress to condone the destructive type of Capitalism that they seek to replace American Capitalism with – their evil Crony Capitalism of un-holy alliance between government and business;
–     the trends in our Administration,  Judiciary, and Congress to punish those of Christian faith (80% of Americans – more than a super-majority);
–     the trends in our Administration, Judiciary, and Congress to give money and arms to America’s known enemies, and to infiltrate our nation with those same enemies.

We must come together in making sure that our next elections, whether they are local, state, or federal are fair elections. The biased media has tried to explain away all of the gross inconsistencies of our last many elections of which both sides of the aisle have been proven to be elections that are manipulated. American citizens must become involved in all phases of their local, state and federal elections.

Most importantly, Americans must mend her divisions among the population of citizens and come back to the healthy center in faith, family, endeavor, and in politics. We have sheer numbers of good citizens on our side when we peacefully heal ourselves in the following ways:
–     Recognize that the majority of Democrats and Republicans who run those political machines are in cahoots against a healthy America.
–     Recognize that the Christian Denominations have been infiltrated to teach hate in some instances, or to teach radical division in some instances, or to teach the worst example of all – secular religion taking away your personal relationship with the Lord. Salvation is a personal experience between each person and the Lord – NOT a group project.
–     Love and Charity are personal experiences – not to be farmed out to the government who cannot even balance their own budget, and cannot keep the graft at a low level. Why would you farm your responsibilities out to the government that cannot reign in their own corruption?

THE TIME IS NOW TO STOP THINKING THAT SAVING AMERICA FROM THE ENEMIES WITHIN IS SOMEONE ELSE’S RESPONSIBILITY. Once upon a time we taught our school children a Civics class. In Civics we learned what our rights and responsibilities are in our REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC. We are not, and have never been, a Democracy. A true Democracy always deteriorates fairly rapidly into mob-rule melting down into a Dictatorship, or Fascist State, or Communist State – depending on the thugs who take control the fastest. Sometimes this is done by military force; sometimes it is done over time by propaganda. In Egypt we are seeing the fruits of their people’s try for Democracy – they ignorantly voted for a Dictatorship – and soon the bigger thugs took over, and now it will probably become a Theocracy – rule by Sharia Law – against the will of the people who were looking for freedom in their rebellion, but not thinking far enough ahead to have a plan for their liberty.

What happens to America – whether her pendulum stays way out in extreme parameters of human life – or comes back to center where life is in positive arenas – the outcome is totally up to each individual American. Once upon a time in America, the American dream was viewed as something to strive for, such was so because the core of faith in America was sweet and wholesome. My favorite Bible verses have been so because if we focus on these verses first, we will heal:

Philippians 4:4 – 4:9     “Rejoice in the Lord always: [and] again I say, Rejoice. Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord [is] at hand. Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things.
Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.”

I beg of you to examine your family, and your individual endeavors of work and of entertainment against these virtues and be honest with yourself about the work you and your family members need to do to be part of the solution, instead of part of America’s destruction. It is your call, and time is very, very short if America is to turn back to a Republic of great providence and human endeavor.
