Sanitized Stories or News

 


I really have to use my faith filter when I'm trying to discern thru the news feed what is true and what are sanitized stories the governmental powers want me to believe.  And dear friends, if we only see US MSM, then for sure we get only part of the story. And I would argue, a very sanitized version. 

As a person who was raised to have great national pride, the sanitized news can be comfortable.  On social media I watch as my "friends" repost and proclaim the sanitized news as gospel truth. As if our government wouldn't hide anything from us. Surely the past 20 years would beg the differ. I beseech you to seek news from all over the world to get a well rounded sense of what's going on.  Having said that,  it's not easy to access international news. There are safe guards in place to discourage that.  But there are websites available that provide access to international news for a price. 

I'm providing a link to an independent news program that gives some insight to what the other parts of the world are saying about the current war with Iran. Please watch it,  even if you don't believe a word, at least you can see what is being said. And a link to another independent reporter's YouTube page. This man tends to report things that MSM report 9 months later.  I encourage you to seek out truth, not because we should be fearful, but because the scriptures warn us of being deceived.

What Being Poor Taught Me

Image
  Throw back Pic from 1985 I am so glad I have had the experience of being poor. I learned to be resourceful,  creative, and self reliant. I can feed a lot on a little and make it taste good.  I learned about natural, aka alternative, medicine. We couldn't afford doctors or pharmaceuticals. I learned what is important and necessary and what is not. I learned I can survive off what I can carry in a backpack.  Most things are just extra baggage.  I learned to be thankful for each day's provision. When I was 20 I was homeless, living out of my car at Lake Parsons near Parsons Kansas. We, Johnny Bill and I, ate all the fish we could catch and some nice folks gave us eggs. I never ate so many eggs in my whole life.  For a few years after this,  I didn't eat eggs at all.  Same with PB&J, during my first pregnancy I ate PB&J every day. Someone gave me commodity peanut butter, a huge can of it.  I didn't let it go to waste.   I lear...

Something is Askew

Image
  On June 13th I woke up with a gut feeling I haven't been able to dismiss. At first it was something I "felt" but couldn't see. It was in my peripheral vision. Like a word on the tip of your tongue, but you just can't recall it. It was a few hours before I was aware of Israel moving against Iran. But knowing what happened didn't dismiss that feeling of something wasn't right.  I hear voices from all sides, yet none of those give me comfort. Today is the 17th and things are happening quite quickly.  Clearly many things are askew, but still the gut feeling persists. I sense there is a trick I must watch out for. When our focus is in one area, screwy stuff is happening elsewhere.  I know my Rock,  Yahusha, and I'm not afraid,  but I feel like I'm being cautioned.  Feelings don't really account for much overall, they can ebb and flow as the tide, change like the wind. My foundation of understanding must be secured to the Word of Yah, my Bible. Hav...

One-Liner Verses

Image
I have noticed how we, as Bible believing Christians, are quick with one-liner verses. We have scripture memorized, stored in our hearts, and freely throw them into conversation. Sometimes very much out of context. "he who is without sin, cast the first stone", "judge not", "don't let anyone judge you by what you eat, or drink", "I can do all things thru Christ who strengthens me". Each of these phrases, and many others like them,  show up in specific stories, with specific meaning for that situation. Not to be thrown into any and every conversation. Yet it happens. I have also noticed how, many of us, as Bible believing Christians, operate under the assumption that each word written in Scripture is directed to  us. Not true. These words were many times for specific people, under specific circumstances, with a specific purpose. Something from which we can glean understanding and deeper insight, but not direct instructions for us. But if we do...
