Start Your Day Positively with a POWER SMOOTHIE!

What a great way to start the day!

I just love SMOOTHIES! Healthy and refreshing smoothies made with organic fruits and pure water or organic coconut juice, and healthy supplements including flaxseed and chia seeds and hempseeds, for example.

I have been researching for a long time now about the health benefits of thousands of food items that include nuts, seeds, grains, fruits, vegetables and more. Fresh organic fruit simply brims with healthy enzymes, bioflavinoids, natural vitamins and many other wonderful things to make your health shine.

We Americans, many with our junk food addictions, hate to admit it, but the truth is WE ARE WHAT WE EAT!

Has America become JUNKFOOD LAND???

What you put into your mouth is all your tender body has to maintain your health, period.

Garbage in, garbage out, as they say. And it's true!

But...healthy foods and vitamins and supplements and water IN, and a healthy body will inevitably emerge with it. A brand new YOU is possible!

**************************************************

When I took care of two children for my friend Lisa in Alaska, I was the cook, period. I prepared all the meals, including breakfast. Every day before they went to school, I powered her boys with wonderful organic smoothies. A company called FULL CIRCLE shipped organic produce up to Kotzebue every week, and we could order anything we wanted on their website.

Here is the website for FULL CIRCLE organic food delivery services.

And so I ordered organic fruits and vegetables weekly, to help keep Lisa and her two sons operating at the best under harsh conditions.

The kids walked to school in weather like THIS 

every single day at 60-70 below zero at times!

I would start their day with a wonderful smoothie blend of various fruits and vitamin supplements as well. This helped her two sons to actually WALK TO SCHOOL, over a mile in extreme temperature weather, every single day. 60 to 70 BELOW ZERO is what they faced the moment they walked out of their warm apartment. Brrrrr! No thank you!

I even started to develop a serious condition similar to emphisema when I tried to walk outside in that terrible cold. It is called arctic lung. I had to stop immediately when I found myself gasping for breath at night and almost unable to breathe due to injuring my fragile avioli in my lungs from supercold air inhaled. HOW she and her children did this, I will never know...but then maybe those daily smoothies I made really DID have more benefits than I knew!

Lisa also had to walk to work. And so, I made a nice warm breakfast for the family every single morning, served with a power smoothie. What a difference it made for them in this harsh and challenging climate.

******************************************

John loves his smoothies!

I try to start my brother John's day with a power smoothie as well. No institutionalized food can fully provide a patient with all the vitamins and foods they need for optimal health. And so I try to start John's day with a powerful vitamin supplement and with A POWER SMOOTHIE to boost his energy and speed his body's recovery.

I have noticed that on the days I cannot be there to do this, when I then return he is weak and exhausted and lethargic. But, when I immediately resume his liquid vitamins and power smoothies, he instantly responds and he comes to life.

*********************************************

If you are not feeling well on a regular basis, or lack strength and energy, a power smoothie can help you in this regard. There are so many benefits of eating and drinking healthily.

There are also many wonderful and informative websites on the Internet that can help you learn more about the health benefits of organic fruits and smoothies, plus recipes in how to make them.

Many different kinds of blenders are available on the market today to make your healthy smoothies. A regular kitchen blender works just fine. And of course, you can purchase more expensive blenders such as the VITAMIX and the BULLET. They all work fine for making good smoothies. I personally prefer the basic affordable blender you can buy inexpensively at WALMART, SAM'S CLUB, COSTCO or other stores.

Click HERE for some great recipes for ideas for healthy smoothies.
Click HERE for awesome GREEN smoothies recipes.

And always remember: if it's NOT ORGANIC and NON-GMO, it is not fully HEALTHY. If any recipe calls for milk products, I suggest eliminating all milk and yoghurt due to Fukushima radiation concentrated now in all milk products in North America, even ORGANIC, and substitute an organic milk substitute product instead.

My upcoming articles are going to focus more and more on what will help you all to become more of an overcomer, not only spiritually but also physically as well. Because we ALL need our health.

Battling the New World Order and darkness in the world today is not only spiritual, but our future struggling to survive and outwit the opposition will also be PHYSICAL as well.

Beloved reader, please do yourself a big favor: get educated in health and nutrition and put it to work in your life. You will begin to feel the benefits as you abandon old ways of unhealthy eating, and begin to bless every cell in your precious body with foods and drinks of LIFE MORE ABUNDANT. 

And never forget: healthy fruits and vegetables and other food are God's gifts to mankind from His precious earth. He created the goodness in them to bless our health. Recieve them with thanksgiving. Use them bountifully and gratefully and wisely.

And remember to thank God the Father through Jesus Christ for every precious bite and sip He has provided for us. Praise God from Whom all blessings and mercies flow!

TO YOUR ABUNDANT HEALTH AND LIFE TODAY!

Here's to LIFE and HOPE for the New Year!

By Pamela Rae Schuffert presenting investigative journalism from a Biblical Christian perspective-

 www.AmericanHolocaustComing.blogspot.com

For years now I have been warning Americans and others of the coming AMERICAN HOLOCAUST. Long before many reporting on this subject recently, I was reporting information long ago received from many inside information sources. I have been reading many websites with people recently writing articles that only mirror what I was saying almost 20 years ago, and is no new revelation, only updated.

Nothing has basically changed about an AMERICAN HOLOCAUST COMING in America. Simply upgraded and updated new information confirming the old.

I want to go BEYOND these things, and instead report on WHAT IS THE ANSWER? WHAT WILL BRING LIFE AND HOPE? Jesus Christ is that hope to destroy the wicked plans of men and to bring life to His people. We as Christians have HOPE because of Almighty God!

I want to bring HOPE to God's people and not despair. There are enough websites out there telling people about terrible things to come. This is very different from 20 years ago when I was pioneering with a few others on this subject. 

And unfortunately, some people fall unwittingly into the trap of become very depressed and negative about their outlook on life. Don't do it! This is exactly where the enemy would have you be: in a state of hopelessness, discouragement and despair. Then you can never fully achieve your goals or fulfill the will of God for your life. And this is never of God. 

Instead, use your prayers to tear down the plans of the enemy. Use your God-imparted wisdom and seek God to formulate a plan of safety and protection for your family. Pray for the funds for food supplies and a nuclear fallout shelter and survival equipment. Pray about the possibility of leaving this country and soon, even as many others have done who realize what is coming to North America.

Perhaps it is time for another Pilgrim journey for God's people. That is what my Pilgrim ancestors did...they left England to come to America for freedom from religious persecution and suffering. And God used them in a mighty way.

Health food and nutrition is a very important subject for people to research today. Americans are dying from lack of good health and lack of food that is healthy and a healthy lifestyle. Sadly so is the rest of the world.

Jesus Christ is the LIFE of the world. We ALL need more of Jesus Christ and His teaching and examples. Personally, I want to focus more on Jesus Christ and HIS amazing power to deliver His people from trouble and bring them LIFE!

I encourage you to look into websites on HEALTH AND NUTRITION, like Mike Adams of NATURAL NEWS  and going organic in this polluted world that is killing people daily. Please, CHOOSE to give yourself abundant LIFE physically, as well as spiritually.

Please seek out good Christian websites and Christian fellowships that are GENUINE that will bring you quality spiritual LIFE and good solid teachings. Or  teach yourself and remain with only trusted people in your Christian walk.

Fast and pray frequently. I have learned to do so. This way you will bring physical strength and spiritual renewal as well to your life. And it works.

The one major health issue (and unwanted) I am dealing with now is with my weight because of what happened in Alaska. When you are shut in for a year in the arctic circle surrounded by tundra and wild animals and cold that is life killing and 70 below zero much of the time, you simply cannot get out and hike and bike and exercise daily like I was doing to keep my weight down.

You are shut in day after day (unless you want to exercise outdoors anyhow and develop "arctic lung" like I did initially), and are sedentary with little exercise. I was having nothing but organic food shipped up once a week to Kotzebue by the woman I was working for as I watched her two children so she could fly to the Eskimo clinics in the villages.

But if you do not metabolize what you eat, it is still stored as fatty adipose tissue. Better known as FAT. And frankly, I hate it. I learned this the hard way in the Arctic, and regained much of the weight I had painstakingly gotten rid of through daily hiking and biking in Glacier National Park and elsewhere,

And so now I am healthily eating and exercising and fasting and slowly getting rid of my "Eskimo fat." Soon it will be gone and back to normal. But it took a year to put on in Alaska, and it will take time to get it completely off again.

So for me, now it is working out at the gym, and lots of exercise and careful eating and fasting to restore proper weight.

Decide to focus on the things that bring  HOPE and a fuller LIFE to you. Jesus came to bring life and bring it more abundantly to ALL of us...and that means in every dimension of our lives.

Do not choose to overly focus on the negative. The world  has always been filled with bad news and terrible events. But Jesus came to bring LIFE and HOPE to this world! Focus instead on the POSITIVE SOLUTION to life's problems.

Yes, become aware of what is happening in the world, but don't let it consume you!

God's eternal WORD has the true answer for all the problems of this world.

Become aware, and then PRAY for God to intervene. Pray for what God wants to do in your life in response. PRAY for deliverance FROM EVIL, even as Jesus commands us to.

My focus remains ON JESUS, on LIFE and on the SOLUTION He presents to us all.

That is what this website MUST be about.

DO you want hope and encouragement? Go and read your Bible. Pray. Seek God TODAY for hope and a powerful positive solution to life's problems. Refuse to be defeated by negative reports you hear or read every single day. Instead, be lifted UP through Jesus Christ and His eternal promises.

Our living God is the God of  ALL victory! Jesus is Lord of abundant life. He wants YOU to have VICTORY and LIFE more abundantly. And so do I!

And so, my friends, here's to LIFE and HOPE as we face the New Year, all through Jesus Christ our Savior and soon coming King!

Deadly Dangers of Fukushima Radiation!

Guest Article-Michael Snyder

28 Signs That The West Coast Is Being Absolutely Fried With Nuclear Radiation From Fukushima

 By Michael Snyder, on October 21st, 2013

 

     

The map above comes from the Nuclear Emergency Tracking Center.  It shows that radiation levels at radiation monitoring stations all over the country are elevated.  As you will notice, this is particularly true along the west coast of the United States.  Every single day, 300 tons of radioactive water from Fukushima enters the Pacific Ocean.  That means that the total amouont of radioactive material released from Fukushima is constantly increasing, and it is steadily building up in our food chain.  Ultimately, all of this nuclear radiation will outlive all of us by a very wide margin.  They are saying that it could take up to 40 years to clean up the Fukushima disaster, and meanwhile countless innocent people will develop cancer and other health problems as a result of exposure to high levels of nuclear radiation.  We are talking about a nuclear disaster that is absolutely unprecedented, and it is constantly getting worse.  The following are 28 signs that the west coast of North America is being absolutely fried with nuclear radiation from Fukushima…

1. Polar bears, seals and walruses along the Alaska coastline are suffering fromfur loss and open sores…

Wildlife experts are studying whether fur loss and open sores detected in nine polar bears in recent weeks is widespread and related to similar incidents among seals and walruses.

The bears were among 33 spotted near Barrow, Alaska, during routine survey work along the Arctic coastline. Tests showed they had “alopecia, or loss of fur, and other skin lesions,” the U.S. Geological Survey said in a statement.

2. There is an epidemic of sea lion deaths along the California coastline…

At island rookeries off the Southern California coast, 45 percent of the pups born in June have died, said Sharon Melin, a wildlife biologist for the National Marine Fisheries Service based in Seattle. Normally, less than one-third of the pups would die.   It’s gotten so bad in the past two weeks that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration declared an “unusual mortality event.”

3. Along the Pacific coast of Canada and the Alaska coastline, the population of sockeye salmon is at a historic low.  Many are blaming Fukushima.

4. Something is causing fish all along the west coast of Canada to bleed from their gills, bellies and eyeballs.

5. A vast field of radioactive debris from Fukushima that is approximately the size of California has crossed the Pacific Ocean and is starting to collide with the west coast.

6. It is being projected that the radioactivity of coastal waters off the U.S. west coast could double over the next five to six years.

7. Experts have found very high levels of cesium-137 in plankton living in the waters of the Pacific Ocean between Hawaii and the west coast.

8. One test in California found that 15 out of 15 bluefin tuna were contaminated with radiation from Fukushima.

9. Back in 2012, the Vancouver Sun reported that cesium-137 was being found ina very high percentage of the fish that Japan was selling to Canada…

• 73 percent of mackerel tested

• 91 percent of the halibut

• 92 percent of the sardines

• 93 percent of the tuna and eel

• 94 percent of the cod and anchovies

• 100 percent of the carp, seaweed, shark and monkfish

10. Canadian authorities are finding extremely high levels of nuclear radiation in certain fish samples…

Some fish samples tested to date have had very high levels of radiation: one sea bass sample collected in July, for example, had 1,000 becquerels per kilogram of cesium.

11. Some experts believe that we could see very high levels of cancer along the west coast just from people eating contaminated fish…

“Look at what’s going on now: They’re dumping huge amounts of radioactivity into the ocean — no one expected that in 2011,” Daniel Hirsch, a nuclear policy lecturer at the University of California-Santa Cruz, told Global Security Newswire. “We could have large numbers of cancer from ingestion of fish.”

12. BBC News recently reported that radiation levels around Fukushima are “18 times higher” than previously believed.

13. An EU-funded study concluded that Fukushima released up to 210 quadrillion becquerels of cesium-137 into the atmosphere.

14. Atmospheric radiation from Fukushima reached the west coast of the United States within a few days back in 2011.

15. At this point, 300 tons of contaminated water is pouring into the Pacific Ocean from Fukushima every single day.

16. A senior researcher of marine chemistry at the Japan Meteorological Agency’s Meteorological Research Institute says that “30 billion becquerels of radioactive cesium and 30 billion becquerels of radioactive strontium” are being released into the Pacific Ocean from Fukushima every single day.

17. According to Tepco, a total of somewhere between 20 trillion and 40 trillion becquerels of radioactive tritium have gotten into the Pacific Ocean since the Fukushima disaster first began.

18. According to a professor at Tokyo University, 3 gigabecquerels of cesium-137 are flowing into the port at Fukushima Daiichi every single day.

19. It has been estimated that up to 100 times as much nuclear radiation has been released into the ocean from Fukushima than was released during the entire Chernobyl disaster.

20. One recent study concluded that a very large plume of cesium-137 from the Fukushima disaster will start flowing into U.S. coastal waters early next year…

Ocean simulations showed that the plume of radioactive cesium-137 released by the Fukushima disaster in 2011 could begin flowing into U.S. coastal waters starting in early 2014 and peak in 2016.

21. It is being projected that significant levels of cesium-137 will reach every corner of the Pacific Ocean by the year 2020.

22. It is being projected that the entire Pacific Ocean will soon “have cesium levels 5 to 10 times higher” than what we witnessed during the era of heavy atomic bomb testing in the Pacific many decades ago.

23. The immense amounts of nuclear radiation getting into the water in the Pacific Ocean has caused environmental activist Joe Martino to issue the following warning…

“Your days of eating Pacific Ocean fish are over.”

24. The Iodine-131, Cesium-137 and Strontium-90 that are constantly coming from Fukushima are going to affect the health of those living the the northern hemisphere for a very, very long time.  Just consider what Harvey Wassermanhad to say about this…

Iodine-131, for example, can be ingested into the thyroid, where it emits beta particles (electrons) that damage tissue. A plague of damaged thyroids has already been reported among as many as 40 percent of the children in the Fukushima area. That percentage can only go higher. In developing youngsters, it can stunt both physical and mental growth. Among adults it causes a very wide range of ancillary ailments, including cancer.

Cesium-137 from Fukushima has been found in fish caught as far away as California. It spreads throughout the body, but tends to accumulate in the muscles.

Strontium-90’s half-life is around 29 years. It mimics calcium and goes to our bones.

25. According to a recent Planet Infowars report, the California coastline is being transformed into “a dead zone”…

The California coastline is becoming like a dead zone.

If you haven’t been to a California beach lately, you probably don’t know that the rocks are unnaturally CLEAN – there’s hardly any kelp, barnacles, sea urchins, etc. anymore and the tide pools are similarly eerily devoid of crabs, snails and other scurrying signs of life… and especially as compared to 10 – 15 years ago when one was wise to wear tennis shoes on a trip to the beach in order to avoid cutting one’s feet on all the STUFF of life – broken shells, bones, glass, driftwood, etc.

There are also days when I am hard-pressed to find even a half dozen seagulls and/or terns on the county beach.

You can still find a few gulls trolling the picnic areas and some of the restaurants (with outdoor seating areas) for food, of course, but, when I think back to 10 – 15 years ago, the skies and ALL the beaches were literally filled with seagulls and the haunting sound of their cries both day and night…

NOW it’s unnaturally quiet.

26. A study conducted last year came to the conclusion that radiation from the Fukushima nuclear disaster could negatively affect human life along the west coast of North America from Mexico to Alaska “for decades”.

27. According to the Wall Street Journal, it is being projected that the cleanup of Fukushima could take up to 40 years to complete.

28. Yale Professor Charles Perrow is warning that if the cleanup of Fukushima is not handled with 100% precision that humanity could be threatened “for thousands of years“…

“Conditions in the unit 4 pool, 100 feet from the ground, are perilous, and if any two of the rods touch it could cause a nuclear reaction that would be uncontrollable. The radiation emitted from all these rods, if they are not continually cool and kept separate, would require the evacuation of surrounding areas including Tokyo. Because of the radiation at the site the 6,375 rods in the common storage pool could not be continuously cooled; they would fission and all of humanity will be threatened, for thousands of years.”

Are you starting to understand why so many people are so deeply concerned about what is going on at Fukushima?

Please Go ORGANIC for Your Heath!

www.Americanholocaustcoming.blogspot.com

I am totally organic and 95% vegetarian. I study health and nutrition daily for hours. The only meats or eggs I eat rarely/occasionally are free range pasture raised with no growth hormones or antibiotics and no GMO feed or soy. 

I have found the benefits of this kind of diet to be immense! And I eat for only pennies a day, getting rid of meats/milk/dairy products and commercially produced foods loaded with artificial ingredients and GMO's.

I am also avoiding more and more even organic west coast produce, due to Fukushima radiation destroying food and fish safety. I try now to find more imported safe organic foods at this time, since most organic produce in America comes from the west coast.

Living waters

I drink only the purest water since water makes up most of our body and can cause many illnesses including cancer and fibromyalgia. Much cheaper when you eliminate soft drinks and junk drinks and commercially processed drinks daily and only drink purest water or juicing.

I also work out at a gym as well. I had to join a local Christian gym in order to take a shower regularly. The cost monthly is less than paying a truck stop for a shower regularly in fact. Weight lifting and strength training through weights and work out machines are a part of my daily routine (or several times a week.) I want to get a bicycle and join in other outdoor activity sources of exercise and health as well.

I take only the purest vitamins and supplements for my health as well. Organic olive oil, first cold pressed, flax and hemp oil and other healthy oils are also a part of my health diet.

I use only organic soaps, lotions and shampoos for my body since the chemicals can cause cancer and problems in other non-organic products.

I do most of my blogging in a health food store, in fact, while I am here with John. Like right now.

Walking is very important for your health daily. And even now as I write this I am exercising my stomach muscles by retracting them periodically.

Fasting is so very important as well. Fasting on water only is the most important to get rid of all toxins. Throughout the Christmas season I fasted on water only, for example.

The greatest gift you can give yourself for the Christmas season of course is JESUS! And the second greatest gift is LIFE and your HEALTH. Jesus came that we might have life anyhow...both spiritually and physically as well. 

After all, He created a world of LIFE from the beginning. He is the Author of life and the God of all flesh and life. In the Father THERE IS LIFE! In Jesus there is LIFE.

John 10:10-

"...But I have come that they might have life 

and have it 

more abundantly."

And in proper health and nutrition there is LIFE ABUNDANT!

I pay far less for the food that I eat, than people who shop non-organic. Commercially processed foods are expensive. Commercial meats, milk and dairy are expensive. And the medical bills you will someday get for for not eating healthily are going to be incredible and expensive!

Happy healthy family

So pray about going ORGANIC for your sake and the sake of your children as well. FEED YOUR CHILDREN ORGANIC!

Someday you will be glad you did. The future of the world of tomorrow (as long as it lasts) is ORGANIC FARMING AND RANCHING. And bringing an end to the unhealthy toxins in our world today.

The spiritual salvation  of the world is through Jesus Christ and the Christians with the Christian Gospel message. The physical saviors of the health of the world and of mankind are the organic farmers and ranchers and health nutritionists and teachers who help to bring physical life to the world. 

Blessed are the Christians who get educated in nutrition and organic foods and feed their family properly for LIFE (and exercise as well for LIFE.)

You are building up a great foundation for your future!

TO YOUR HEATH in Jesus Christ, Pamela Rae Schuffert

Time For A Much Needed Sabbatical...

TIME FOR A REST!

By Pamela Rae Schuffert presenting investigative journalism from a Biblical Christian perspective-

John is now stabilized and as well as he can be in his circumstances. The people here at his nursing home are largely Christians and they care deeply about John. I have finally come to the realization that there is nothing more I can do for John than what they are doing already. All of his needs are supplied completely and he is very happy there.

I am weary of three months or more now of sleeping in my vehicle here, even being asked to leave the truck stop where I have been parking previously due to being there so long. Hard to sleep parked at the nursing home with so much traffic and doors slamming continually.

I cannot get a job here in this region. How safe is it for anyone who hires me with my background here? It remains dangerous for me to remain in this area yet. I can do nothing for John in a crisis if I am dead, and he knows this and is concerned for my safety continually. While he is thankful that God used me to rescue him from certain death, he also knows that I do not belong in this region full time.

I am praying about taking a sabbatical, much needed, from all of this stress and from being essentially out of my region. I am not called to be here  in Western NC long term and plan to leave, with a contingency plan to return to John should anything once again appear to be imminent. And to relocate him to a nursing home where I am as well. 

John also wants me to take a break too for a while...he is very happy in his new surroundings and his life was saved by my visit. There is nothing I can do for him at this point, because they have already taken care of everything for him already. My mission to rescue John has truly  been fulfilled for now.

It is time to finally take care of myself and basic needs.

"He gives His beloved rest........"

I also need to be free to continue in my traveling and reporting and journeys at this time. I want to get Russian Bibles to the Russians in Gatlinburg TN soon.

John is fine and will continue to do well at this time in his new location. Now I must take time to look out for my own needs, which I can't do this in this region. And personally, I have no true desire to remain in this region wherein I was almost killed more than once. Too painful and too many memories and still danger remaining.

So pray for me at this time. Pray for John too. He is very happy and fulfilled where he is now. I made sure his important needs were met already. 

Please consider donating Christmas season support as well. 

I recently took the important liberty to buy myself a few Christmas presents by purchasing a few survival items...a little extra food, a Coleman lantern, some survival hand tools, and everything is completely depleted. Survival supplies and prepping is a bottomless pit! And funds go all too quickly.

I just experienced this the hard way. I am now totally depleted. I suppose alot of you are too at this time of the year! And my survival/prepping needs are woefully inadequate at this time. Pitiful, in fact. A back pack, sleeping bags, candle lantern and Coleman lantern, only a few food supplies extra. At least I have a warm coat from the Arctic experience and some warm sweaters and some hiking boots and a good camping knife.

Thank you for your prayers as I make my plans to safely relocate at this time. No home has opened up for refuge here, and no work as well. I must relocate at this time.

As I said, there is nothing here for me, and John's needs are well taken care of at last and he is now out of the danger zone. I cannot remain in a region where I can be endangered and have no job, etc. And honestly, I have no desire to remain here long term and no peace to do so.

My heart remains in other locations far away where God called me and has used me mightily throughout past years. 

So continue to pray for John to do well and be blessed where he is. Once I get relocated, I hope to relocate John to a new nursing home out of NC as well, and he knows this. And pray for me for God to show me what to do and where to go at this time. I hope to return to Montana. 

I still need something more substantial to live in. I don't think any of my readers would want to spend a winter or a Christmas living in their vehicle, seriously. Pray for a miracle for the right financial miracle and recreational vehicle to come into my life soon. And for rest at last.

Thank you and God bless you richly both now and always!

A Sacred and Wondrous Christmas Celebration...

 FROM MY HOUSE...

TO YOURS!

God bless us, every one! I took this picture of my car at night, so that the wreath with lights hanging between the cars seats would show up. 

I love Christmas wreaths. To me, they symbolize so many things about Jesus the Christ. The evergreen wreath symbolizes not only the unending circle of everlasting life that Jesus brings us, but also provides a symbol the crown of thorns that Jesus wore when He died a lonely death for us on the Cross.

(By the way, I do not care what pre-Christ pagans may have had in mind when they might have made a wreath at this season. I am not that pagan. I am a born-again redeemed Christian who respects, enjoys  and appreciates God's creation, including His trees. I am tired of the ungodly taking God's precious creation and desecrating for their own unholy purposes. As the Apostle Paul once declared, "to the pure, all things are pure.")

As I write this, I am meditating on what someone said to me tonight. She is a Christian. I previously had a long discussion with her about martial law and things to come to our nation. She also knows about my difficult living circumstances, even through the Christmas season. 

It can become challenging to find yourself living in your vehicle, even as you drive down streets with decorations on the front yards and beautiful scenes of a warm Christmas as you gaze into their windows. As Christmas approaches, it can even feel a bit cold and a little lonely sitting or sleeping in your vehicle throughout the night. 

No, I am not feeling sorry for myself. I am simply being totally transparent with my readers. God already knows how exceeding thankful I am for everything He has provided for me. I praise God in all my circumstances. But I admit, I am also human and have very normal emotions as well. Christmas is a hard season to go through when you are alone and you don't have a home to go home to. 

But much compassion is also birthed through the suffering God allows in all our lives. We become sensitive to the sufferings of others around us, and better enabled to minister to them as a result.

As I left an establishment that this Christian woman works at, she said (a little too sugary, as southerners are known to do) "Have a Merry Christmas!" For the first time in my life, I said nothing in return. I hoped my serious silence spoke louder than the words I was tempted to say, as I quietly left the building.

WHAT words was I tempted to say...honestly? Words such as this is not a time for worldly mirth as in "merry" but rather a time for Christians worldwide to humble themselves in the Presence of God through fasting and prayer and repentance. The world hangs on the threshold of WWIII. Christians are being martyred brutally worldwide now. America soon faces martial law. And more.

I admit, I don't feel like being "merry" at this time. Rather, I feel like celebrating a serious, contemplative and sacred time of being in the presence of my Savior through prayer and fasting and meditating on His word.  "Merry" is often associated with mirth and often careless laughter. 

My heart is very somber and focused instead on Jesus Christ and His words to my spirit during this Christmas time. 

Heavy things are on my mind at this time. I have been spending time in periodic fasting and prayer recently. I watch people laughing all around me. Yes, I too can laugh. 

But somehow I just don't feel like laughing when I see the absolute urgency of this dangerous hour we are living in today in America.

For example, a bigger and badder NDAA legislation was just passed. The implications will severe for many Americans in our future.

FUKUSHIMA RADIATION continues to pour non-stop from the damaged reactor. This has effectively poisoned the Pacific ocean permanently. All blue fin tuna caught off the California coast have tested positive for RADIATION. All produce grown on our west coast, including organic, is now contaminated with Fukushima radiation, as honest testing and whistleblowers have confirmed. Thyroid cancer cases have skyrocketed on the West coast of the USA as well. Infant deaths in America have increased by 35 % due to Fukushima radiation. And the Fukushima tragedy doesn't stop there....

On alternative news websites, there is increasing discussion of an upcoming "FALSE FLAG" black op on the way. Of course, such man-staged "disasters" for martial law are ALWAYS on the way in America...but this time there seems to be an urgency and more evidence pointing to serious tragic events being planned on a major scale in the near future.

The potential for war with Russia and China...everything in place for MARTIAL LAW across America...the coming economic crash...BIG BROTHER whittling away at our liberties and freedoms continually, including religious freedom...lawlessness increasing in our nation...and so much more.

I guess what I am trying to communicate is, that while you are enjoying this very special time of honoring the birth of the Savior of the world with your family and loved ones, please don't forget the CHRIST in "Christmas." 

Jesus Christ and His word and priorities must be our focus at this time of enjoyment as well.

This is a time to seek His face as never before. Fasting and prayer should also be found during this season. This can be a time of great joy, but also of great soberness and sincerity as we seek God in earnest, as we face America's (and the world's) uncertain future.

On the other hand...many of you struggling with depression and discouragement need to get your minds off the bad news, and focus instead on the uplifting and edifying GOOD news instead! Including me.

Okay, okay...finally I am going to MAKE myself get my mind off the drudge news (which will always be with us) and choose instead to completely focus on the wonders of Jesus Christ come to earth to change this world. Time out! Sabbatical from the bad news times.

You do the same too. Get your mind off the bad news websites and broadcasts, and set aside this time to focus on the overwhelming GOOD NEWS, especially at this time of the year. Enjoy what we have, while we yet have it in America.

Thankfully, even if America goes down under martial law, or an asteroid hits, or WW III comes, we STILL have hope through Jesus Christ our Savior, Who is with us and Who never changes. He remains the greatest gift of all!

"FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE 

HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, 

THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM 

SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE." 

John 3:16
