coming back,,,,

Wow! I have been the worst blogger ever this summer. Getting ready to start school work and prepare for fall/winter, I think I will be getting back into the blogging mode. First I need a couple of days to catch up on what is going on with my favs. sorry for such a delay

A Blessing of Hands

Lord, as we gather at this table,
we thank you for this food and the hands that prepared it.
We also thank you for hands we often forget:
those of the farmers who raised this food.
Bless the hands of farmers and farmworkers, Lord
-the calluses, the nicks and scrapes, the dirt on these hands.
Thank You for the know-how of these hands
to prepare, repair, test and harvest.
Encourage these impatient hands on rainy days when they itch to work.
And when their hands wring under financial strain,
direct them to hope in You.
Bless the hands of farmers, Lord. Amen.
-Diane Zaerr Brenneman, Parnell, Iowa

Embracing Your Sacred Calling

What you do in your house is worth as much as if you did it up in heaven for our Lord God. We should accustom ourselves to think of our position and work as sacred and well-pleasing to God, not on account of the postition and work, but on account of the word and faith from which the obedience and the work flow.
----Martin Luther (taken from the Passionate Housewives Desperate for God)

A note from me,,,,,

As you read the next post, it will not take you long to see that my blog fits the profile that the government is now saying is terrorist actions.
This is hitting close to home for me and many people I know and care for. We all have Ron Paul bumper stickers, along with many other stickers. We own books and movies that inform Americans about our history and tell truths about events that have occurred in our country.
We carry a copy of the Constitution and are happy to share these with others. (how does that sound like a terrorist?)
Speak out about this to others, read the links in the next post. This could be in your state next. Missouri isn't too far from home.
and last, but far from least--Please everyone unite in Prayer. We must all seek Gods Wisdom in how to protect our families, and how to preserve our freedoms,,,,if you won't do it for yourself, please do it for our children.

I am not a terrorist. I am a lover of freedom and liberty.
But according to the Missouri Information Analysis Center's report (MIAC) entitled “The Modern Militia Movement” supporters of Bob Barr, Chuck Baldwin, and YES, even Ron Paul should be considered "militant groups". The MIAC is a government funded research group under the direction of The Department of Homeland Security. In fact it specifically names the Campaign for Liberty, The Libertarian Party, and The Constitution Party, in this document and advises police to be on the look out for our memorabilia.The report mentions nearly every recent conspiracy theory, trying to debunk a number of them unsuccessfully, and often times even acknowledging the existence of the New World Order, including the FEMA camps.Anyway, feel free to discuss your outrage here.http://www.columbiatribune.com/news/2009/mar/14/fusion-center-data-draws-fire-over-assertions/http://www.infowars.com/secret-state-police-report-ron-paul-bob-barr-chuck-baldwin-libertarians-are-terrorists/http://www.libertyrestorationproject.org/2009/03/12/press-release-are-you-on-the-list/http://www.sodahead.com/blog/48688/secret-state-police-report-libertarians-are-terrorists/http://www.infowars.com/police-trained-nationwide-that-informed-americans-are-domestic-terrorists/http://axiomamuse.wordpress.com/2009/03/13/fusion-center-designates-75-of-the-population-as-subversive-extremists/http://www.kansascity.com/news/breaking_news/story/1086524.htmlSecret State Police Report: Ron Paul, Bob Barr, Chuck Baldwin, and Libertarians are terrorists
