A Great Testimony at Christmas

Years ago, when we were still in the radio studio, I think maybe 2009, Shelby Ring, then in high school, came to give us a testimony. It still rings today — if you will forgive the pun.

However, thank the Lord, we are seeing a great awakening/revival among our young people. They are hungry, thirsty, and serious.

And it is a good thing, because no joke, our young people are under assault. Drug usage we think is like our day, but in fact, it is seriously deadly. And it is an intentional attack, coordinated by a foreign power that has used drug as warfare for centuries, and brought in by cartels who are more sophisticated than you imagine.  Then, on top of that, if the faculty at their government school is not also drunk/addicted, they are pushing sexual depredation. The curricula and library selections are nothing short of grooming, and every week the news media records another faculty indicted for depredation. Given the pushback on political forays into common sense restrictions, one wonders what is NOT caught. Stories of the darkest kind can be found. Demons lurk among us.

But Jesus came as the light of the world, and Jesus Messiah shines in our world, if we open a window or door. Let’s celebrate the light that came in for Shelby — who, by the way, is still around. Thank God.

May the light of Christ Messiah light our lives, our families, our cities, and our nations. May both we and the spheres sing His praises. Thank God, we have a God who is salvation, who is hope, who is love and goodness.This is what we need! Amen!

Mothering and Salvation

The problems that mothers feel the most have changed over the years. Back in the 1980s we were tormented that our children were not doing well in school. In the early 2000s, we learned that “learning disabilities” were common. We were then puzzled why we were having so many physiological issues that “no one knew about.” We began to be locked into controversy about whether vaccines caused autism. By the 20 tens we were just overwhelmed by the massive problems our children were having. In the 2020 we are flabberghasted at the problems that society is bringing us. We just hope our children are not raped, mutilated, or alienated from us. We think now that learning problems like “learning disabilities” are largely dealt with. We are exhausted.

The root cause of everything is evil in the world, brokenness of humanity. Wouldn’t it be great if there were one over-arching solution? Good news. There is. We call it salvation. Today, for most people, this word has a strange, religious smell to it. It means rescue! In Central America, there is a beer named “Salvation” because there the refreshing quality of a cold beer could find no better term!  Salvation is rescue, it is refreshing, it is also a total renewal of reality.

As mothers, as grandmothers, as educators, we sure need a resurrection out of decay, dirtiness, and darkness.  Jesus is there. He brought it to us. Came down from heaven to walk among us humans, to offer His Divine Hand.

Hear how this could apply in your child’s life.

Blessings.

Testimonies of Miraculous Healings

HEALING

I wanted to talk some more about miraculous healings. Normally, when I do that here, I just open up the scriptures. Well, we did have some testimonies: Betty, Melanie, and Shelby. But I wanted something fresh and here came Mario Murillo’s movie: “I am Living Proof.”

It was shot at one of his meetings; this one in Colorado Springs. In the movie you visit with 3 people who got miraculously healed.

EARLY AND LATE

Unfortunately, given the crush of work on me, I was not able to get this recorded and edited and published while the movie was still in the theaters. However, the stories are true. You can certainly find Brother Mario’s meetings on his website:  MarioMurillo.org

Maybe he will put out the movie in DVD format?

While the episode is late given the movie, I am posting it early given the weeks’ schedule. Still overwhelming. Every joint supplies.

POINT HERE: WE BELIEVE IN HEALING AND WE WILL TAKE IT ANY WAY IT COMES

Please remember: the point for GSb and OLP is that we believe in miracles and we will take them any way they come. Yes, we believe frank miracles. We also believe in healing — improvement over time. We also believe in healthful life style. We also believe in innovative, improved teaching methods. (about which, see our books   both Learn at Home for Great Shalom and Re-founding Education.) We also believe in faith applied (see How to Win the Game of School.)  Let’s don’t accept the lie of death, destruction and hopelessness. This ‘cast is here to encourage faith, to find the right answer, to obtain total well-being for all children.

Children are Important

Did you ever realize that at Christmas we celebrate a child? And it is a celebration most especially for children? Children are important. We can indeed, take that lesson away.
The angel indicated this was a great gift. Mary clearly was thrilled. The faithful of Israel were looking for this child for centuries. We should be thrilled too.

We, too, as parents and educators are highly favored and blessed. Let us take this knowledge and encourage ourselves — and reform our culture with it.
