My husband came across this article and shared it with me. It breaks my heart. I don't even have words to express how much this hurts. So I'm not going to say anything; just repost it here.

EL PUEBLO WODAABE DE NÍGER
NOVIEMBRE
DIA 08
"El año pasado, no hubo lluvia, y luego nos llegó un terrible viento frío. Nuestros animales no tenían refugio, y sus estómagos estuvieron vacíos porque no tuvimos nada con que alimentarlos. ¡Para los wodaabes, perder sus animales es algo muy malo! Ellos nos dan lo que necesitamos para sobrevivir."
El joven wodaabe estuvo explicando a un extranjero lo que le había sucedido a su pueblo. El joven continuó: "¡Mi familia perdió 59 vacas! Ahora sólo tenemos 14. Pero finalmente la lluvia llegó. ¡Gracias a Allah! Mi familia y yo vivimos justo al lado de este pozo de agua y no vamos a deambular más por ahí. Mi hermana se ha ido a la ciudad a trabajar. Nosotros somos gente orgullosa y no nos daremos por vencidos."

"Operor vox res , adveho quis may"
By Blake Higginbotham
It has been a week since we last communicated with one another; but I thought it only right and proper to back off for a few days and give everybody an opportunity to regroup and gather their thoughts. For some, this has been a dream come true, and for others a reoccurring nightmare. For some, the outcome of this election was history in the making, and for others it has been a week of sorrow and mourning the death of a nation as we have known it. Wherever you find yourself right now, remember this, the Spirit is grieved, this nation is divided, and there is a deep sense of groaning in the Earth.

Average Girl.

Speaking for myself, I must say that I am SICK and tired of seeing girls flaunting what they got(or don't have) just to get the attention of a guy. And then there are the girls that are so insecure that they HAVE to always have a boyfriend or be talking to several guys at once.
I for one wanna take a stand and say, Hey! We're not all like that, I know God has someone for me and I'm not going to date every guy I know just because the oppurtunity.
My favorite band BarlowGirl (A Christian Band made up of three sisters) has a few songs dedicated to that theme. They are all about girls taking pride in themselves, and not settling for whats being offered, but to have standards and you can say no to said offers. In "Average Girl" the theme is all about breaking out of the ordinary and waiting for God promised extraordinary:

As many of you know by the majority of my posts since becoming a part of the LIBAW family, I am a poetess, but I also write short true life stories that are included in what I call the "SECOND CREEK CHRONICLES".
Second Creek was just what it sounds like..........a creek about 2 miles from our farm, and thus the name of the part of God's earth that we occupied at that time...........fishing spot, and swimming hole for many happy kids!

Maps of the Old Roman Empire: Did you know that North Africa Was Part of It?

Posted by Bishop Susan Storm Smith
I felt it might be helpful to have maps of the Old Roman Empire as a reference point. I have also posted these on my page.
It might surprise some to find North Africa as a part of the map. Now pieces of the current conflict in the North African countries to rid them of Christianity has been taking place, with the imprisonment, torture and death of pastors and congregations. Why Iran has promised most of central, eastern, and northern Africa economic support. And why the EU has been determined to create a Mediterranean Union to which Kadafi has been the most NO!, but it will happen.

EL TRABAJO ENTRE LOS BAMBARA
NOVIEMBRE
DIA 09
Las mujeres bambara se encuentran en una encrucijada escuchando dos diferentes llamados. Por un lado escuchan el llamado del Islam, una religión que han seguido de una forma superficial. Este es el camino ancho. Por el otro lado, escuchan el llamado a seguir el camino angosto que les lleva a la vida eterna.
Dos mujeres desconocidas de otra tribu, se acercan a un hogar bambara y luego a otro y a otro, invitando a las mujeres a "la sesión de historias". A pesar de tener sus cuerpos cansados de todo un día de trabajo en el campo, ellas acuden ansiosamente al lugar designado para escuchar las historias sobre Jesús.

It's My Testimony and I'm Closer to God for It

These are some scriptures that have helped me deal with my past. At times I think about all the time I wasted in my addiction and I wonder why I stayed in that lifestyle so long and if I stay there it can get very discouraging. So I refer to these verses to help remind me that through the pain I was drawn to a closer relationship with Jesus that I don't know i would have if I didn't go through what I did.

Abortions.

I view abortions as a woman right to decided wheater or not to keep a baby. The Church and the goverment should stay out of womens lives. In Colorado there is a amenment 48 and if passed it would banned Abortions and birthcontrol. Women would find other ways to get rid of their unborn child. They would go underground, back alleys, and to other country that allows abortions. I'm Pro-Choice. Plus there is all the unwanted babies here in the Untied States. I want to see your views on this topic.

I had a testimony posted a while back. But that was close to a year ago...and to tell you the truth, a lot can change in a year: perspective, feelings, ideas.
I've gained a little perspective about my life. And seeing as that life is constantly changing, it only makes sense that my testimony changes a little too. So here is where I'm at now and just a little about where I've been.

Judas rejection of Christ

JUDAS’ FOLLY
By Rev. Dean Beaty 10/30/08
You know of Christ’s betrayer; Judas was his name.
To plot this awful deed he must have been insane.
He had seen the Savior walk upon the sea.
Saw Him cause the lame to walk and make the blind to see.
These miracles Christ did proved His power and His might.
Yet Judas thought mere soldiers to take and bind Him tight.
As Christ had said to Peter, “The angels I could call.”
“Twelve legions at my bidding.” Enough to kill them all.

Resistance Is Not Futile
By Blake Higginbotham
Proverbs 29:1-2 He who is often rebuked, and hardens his neck, Will suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when a wicked man rules, the people groan.
Unfortunately, this will be the last opportunity that I have to write to you before Election Day; but I promise you that it will not be the last time that you hear from me concerning the issues that are important to us as a people.

A Comedy of Errors (Jewish Style)

Well it has been an interesting month. I got involved some what with the Hebrew Renewal ( still finding a nitch to squeeze into lol )
Now ... what is the Hebrew Renewal .. ? It was started as a project to bring back the old way of worship . Many of our prayers were songs! I was researching and finding many of the works (I believe I may have posted one or two here) Due to the scattering many of our prayers are prayed like Christians ( spoken in monotony .. err I mean monotone ) or worse due to Eastern Mysticism being chanted. We had read how we were to enter the gates with joy, merriment, a song!

Okay on the front of my page is a synopsis basically of my testimony and my life...I'm gonna write the whole thing out for you now...
I suppose the whole mess with me started when I was little. My mother and my father got divorced when I was about three years old. My mom never honestly loved my father, this I know now. She went with him to make the man who later became my stepfather jealous, and well she happened to get pregnant with lil ol me at the age of seventeen, she had me five days after her eighteenth birthday. My grandfather had given her an ultimatum she was either to marry my dad or have an abortion, so she married my father and acted like she cared for him for three years.

Meditative Prayer Part of Eastern Mystics
0 comments
Posted by Bishop Susan Storm Smith
Note: My testimony is coming from the occult, which relies heavily on eastern mysticism. The terms that were used when this meditative prayer movement started was nothing more than what I had left in order to follow Jesus and the Bible. It is very seductive because it takes the student into a "mindless" state of euphoria. And that's how we get entertainment and happy congregations many times at the expense of learning the Word of God. Now, having said that, I republish the below article that was posted on lighthouse trails research newsletter today. It is excellent to stop the conversation of those in the contemplative movement that says it has nothing to do with eastern mystics. Leave a comment, and please be kind to each other in any disagreements. We can study other aspects of religion without putting our emotions at full throttle LOL And as always you can message me with questions, and I will be more than happy to teach and/or answer you

LA TIERRA Y EL AGUA, RECURSOS DE DIOS
NOVIEMBRE
DIA 04
“Tú haces que los manantiales viertan sus aguas en las cañadas, y que fluyan entre las montañas. De ellas beben todas las bestias del campo; allí los asnos monteses calman su sed”. Salmo 104:10-11
En los Andes, y lugares de la serranía, a nuestros paisanos que hemos visitado para enseñar la Palabra de Dios, hemos visto como trabajan la tierra y como requieren del agua; ambos, tierra y agua son recursos dados por Dios para bienestar del ser humano y los animales.
En los últimos diez mil años el clima y la vegetación del Antiguo Oriente, fueron muy parecidos a los de la actualidad. Ello permite argumentar que en el pasado mesopotámico la zona norteña contó con un buen arbolado, excelentes pastos y una próspera agricultura, que constituyo la riqueza de Mesopotomia, gracias a la permanente disponibilidad de agua facilitada por la adecuada irrigación que proporcionan el Éufrates y el Tigris.

What Would Judas Do?

Is there a “Christian” way to vote?
We are about to vote for the next president of the United States of America. Both candidates claim to be Christian’s but does that automatically qualify them to be president? No, of course not. What obligation do Christians have when voting for a public servant? The truth is we have the same obligation as we do for every part of our spiritual journey. We are expected to endorse and support and live by righteousness and holiness and moral character. Because we live in a democratic republic we, as the people, rule. But we vote for representatives of our belief system to implement our POV into the social and governmental square.
Over this election cycle I have seen and heard of Christians who have publicly stated they will vote for Barack Obama. Remember, when you vote for someone they are essentially speaking for you! If you are a follower of Jesus you are inhabited by the Holy Spirit and are supposed to be sensitive to the sanctification that has occurred within your spirit. An Obama vote publicly states this: “I as a follower of Jesus believe that at anytime for any reason whenever a woman decides to murder her baby I and my president support you. This means at 6 weeks or 8 months. From a simple scrape to the child’s brains being sucked from its skull…I approve. Also if an aborted child survives I demand it be left to die to complete the mothers wishes. Obama will sign the most liberal abortion support bill in history and in so doing will immediately break the 6th commandment, “Thou shall not murder”. Our faith is also clear that the purpose of male female relationship is to model the family and Gods creative process by having children. This is the purpose of sex. To make humans by Gods procreative powers He bestowed upon us.

Yes, Please Pray for this Nation

Posted by Amanda Leigh Sessions
I am asking that we pray for the nation. Not because the wrong man was elected though, because I believe he was the right man for the choice. I want us to pray that now that this election is over and our new President is elected that we can again reunite as one. No more insults, no more negativity. That we can all get together and be a UNITED Nation. Under God.
To be honest I am relieved that this election is over. Not simply because the candidate I supported won but because I am ready for the hurtful comments and the unrashional rudeness to end. I mean, being an Obama supporter in Texas is not the easiest thing really. I have been told that I am a socialist, that I am a bad christian, that I am an ignorant idiot, that I am a baby-killer, that I support terrorist Islamic Arab. I am done with it. I am ready for everyone else to be done with the judgemental hurtful comments.

"Are you willing to support President-Elect Obama, even if you didn't vote for him. What are you willing to commit?" - Michael Hyatt
My response:
I am willing to commit to serving my God and obeying His direction when He said,"Obey the government , for God is the one who has put it there. There is no government anywhere that God has not placed in power. So those who refuse to obey the laws of the land are refusing to obey God, and punishment will follow. For the policeman does not frighten people who are doing right; but those doing evil will always fear him. So if you don't want to be afraid, keep the laws and you will get along well. The policeman is sent by God to help you. But if you are doing something wrong, of course you should be afraid, for he will have you punished. He is sent by God for that very purpose." -Romans 13:1-4, TLB.
