I’d like to start some micro-schools, because I agree with David Hazell that we have a lot of children to rescue from the government schools.

But, what is a micro-school? It is NOT a one room school house. Let’s consider what each of those is. Then, we will see what the project really is, and how necessary micro=schools are for the many children who have learning problems today. Well, all of our children have learning problems today, if not because of the tainted food supply, and the horrible medical industry, because of how education is conducted these days.

So, let’s also talk about what education and learning should be. If the system is completely corrupt; if reform won’t make enough change, then, what would be our model?  How about the best teacher ever? Let’s wee what we might learn from Him.

Lee and Mary could have been called disabled. Lee decided to solve problems. So he found victory. Then he found a great wife. Together they lived victory — by solving problems rather than succumbing to challenges and labels. Not disabled!

Hear the true story of some great people. Less than 5 feet tall, but we must inevitably look up to them.

Well, today I talk about the Necessity of admitting, acknowledging, recognizing problems  on the way to overcoming them. Indeed, the only way to solve problems is to know they exist. One must look squarely at the problem, if only for a short time. We do not idolize our problems. We do not deny our problems. We do not wallow in our problems. But we do acknowledge our problems — on the way to solution.

Unfortunately, rarely done. Societal problems often  exist precisely because this is not done. Many situation exist because someone whats them to exists. Other situations exist because people think nothing can be done.  However, nothing is impossible with God.

Of course, nothing is impossible to God, we know that. God has turned some thing over to us. Problems may be too big for us, so we work with God and God with us.

We acknowledge the problems. Then we ask for God’s help. Then we get it!

Today, let’s just admit we do have some problems.

Then, let’s see if we can hold on to that idea for just a couple of weeks. Then, yes, I will tell you a story of victory.

Here at the Great Shalom Broadcast, we don’t say “learning disabilities”; we say “learning problems” — because problems are to be solved. Disabilities sounds like something that must be resigned to; something that is permanent; something like a death knell.

Here, we like to solve problems. I believe in healing and I will take it any way it comes. Might be miraculous. Might be innovative. We like them all.

Now, I have been mocked — publicly — for saying “overcoming” in relation to learning disabilities. Come and here my heart, my experience, and the great overcoming of some others. I think you will be pleased — and encouraged.

So, yes, we really mean “overcoming” learning — problems. It is good news. And yes, we know the lay of the land. Come and find a way through, rather than be stuck with others in the slough of despond.
