During this frenzied time of post-trial madness, it can be overwhelmingly frustrating to see all of the unwarranted propaganda being spewed by so many who want to keep such spiteful hate going on here in America. At least some of us see right through such schemes.
People, my hope remains in my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! No matter what bizarre things are occurring out in the world, He is MY world. Jesus told us that he "is not of this world." As followers of Christ, WE are not of this world either.
Why?
Jhn 14:27
“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Jhn 15:19
“If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
Jhn 17:14
“I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
Jhn 17:16
“They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
Jhn 18:36
Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.”
Those that hate Christians hated Christ first!! As Jesus said in the verse above, "If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world,
but I chose you out of the world, therefore, the world hates you.
My dear Christian brothers and sisters, if the world hates you, then you are in good company...the company of Jesus Christ our Lord!
I think that this explains why secularists, Marxists, atheists, race-baiters, and particularly Islamists can all "coexist" together in one big soup of evil. They all hated Christ first, and therefore, hate us second.
One comment made by George Zimmerman during an interview he had done made me think that he is a Christian. He had learned that his action of self-defense against his attacker ended up being a gun shot wound that tragically killed Trayvon Martin. He stated that it was a "sin" to kill someone. He felt that way because of the Ten Commandments. However, in the case of self-defense, where it was a live or die situation when Martin said those very words to him (You're gonna die [expletive]); in such a case as that, shooting in self-defense
is not a sin. Zimmerman obviously felt remorse that the teen died. But that is lost on the rabidly vicious media pundits, individuals, and groups that are claiming "we all are Trayvon." Well, at least one author was brave enough to tell the truth about it all:
Slate.com: You Are Not Trayvon Martin
His death wasn’t about race, guns, or your pet issue. It was about misjudgment and overreaction—exactly what we’re doing now to the verdict.
This morning, there was a segment on Fox News where the discussion was about the Rolling Stone magazine putting the living
Boston Bomber on the cover. Apparently, it is a sympathetic article about him. But ask yourself, why would they do that? Why are they siding with a radical terrorist who purposely killed and maimed so many people?
And why is the media of mass deception continuing to stir up trouble, interviewing people who spew racism when it's not warranted, and sympathize with those who hurl death threats at George Zimmerman?
My question: Why isn't Attorney General Eric Holder investigating all of the death threats against George Zimmerman? What is wrong with this picture, people???
The TV audience was "trained" to feel sorry for the girl who reluctantly (supposedly) testified at the Zimmerman hearing. I think that we all had sympathy for her concerning her obvious lack of education. However, when she
appeared on MSNBC recently, does this sound like an individual who wanted to stay out of the public eye due to embarrassment? She only put herself into deeper trouble and even more embarrassment!
Excerpt:
Prosecution witness Rachel Jeantel, whose testimony hurt the state’s case against George Zimmerman according to a juror, continued the damage Monday night in a CNN interview, apparently acknowledging that Trayvon Martin was beating George Zimmerman before he was shot and presenting conflicting interpretations of the term for which she will forever be associated, “creepy a– cracka.”
In an interview with CNN’s Piers Morgan, Jeantel insisted that Zimmerman and the jury didn’t have the cultural awareness to understand that Martin wasn’t giving the defendant a “bashing” but merely a “whoop-a–,” Breitbart News noted.
Jeantel, who was on the phone with Martin shortly before he was shot by Zimmerman Feb. 26, 2012, explained: “They don’t understand, they understand, ‘Oh, he would just bash, or was kill.’ When somebody bash somebody, like, blood, people, trust me, in the area I live, that’s not bashing. That’s just called “whoop-ass.” You just got your ass whooped. That’s what it is.’
Hear the first report of Trayvon’s “homophobic slur,” in Molotov Mitchell’s “For the Record.”
Breitbart’s Joel Pollack noted Morgan tried to save Jeantel’s statement by asking her whether Martin would have “whooped a–” in self-defense, but the damage was done. The camera, he pointed out, caught a member of the audience reacting in shock at Jeantel’s admission.
Zimmerman was acquitted Saturday night by a six-member, all-female jury in Sanford, Fla. The news has been followed by protests nationwide and a call for a civil rights investigation by the Justice Department.
In the interview, Jeantel also expounded on Martin’s alleged use of the term “creepy a–cracka” to describe Zimmerman but gave two different definitions.
At one point, she suggested it meant somebody acting as a police officer, which fit the prosecution’s portrayal of Zimmerman as an overly zealous cop-wannabe.
But she also used the term to describe a homosexual rapist:
MORGAN: You felt that there was no doubt in your mind from what Trayvon was telling you on the phone about the creepy ass cracka and so on, that he absolutely believed that George Zimmerman, this man, you didn’t know who he was at the time, but this man, was pursuing him?
JEANTEL: Yes.
MORGAN: And he was freaked out by it?
JEANTEL: Yes. Definitely after I say may be a rapist, for every boy, for every man, every — who’s not that kind of way, seeing a grown man following them, would they be creep out?
“And people need to understand, he didn’t want that creepy ass cracker going to his father or girlfriend’s house to go get — mind you, his little brother was there. You know — now, mind you, I told you — I told Trayvon it might have been a rapist.”

Did that sound like someone who was "reluctantly put on the stand" at the trial or more likely a plant being portrayed sympathetically on purpose...who is now being told what to say?
Now...you tell me. If she was a white Christian woman who disparaged a black man, policemen, and homosexuals, do you think that Piers Morgan would have gone berserk? Of course he would have! But in this case, the sympathetic voice of a young black woman who testified for prosecution (even though she actually ended up helping the defenses' case!) ends up giving her a pass on the insults.
There are hundreds of comments after that article, but one caught my eye and I'm sharing it here:
I read many and I mean MANY reviews / comments on here. None of you
truly understand the real issues we face. The republican party work hand
and hand with the exact people you are all complaining about. Do you
not understand this is done for ONE reason? The reason is simple keep us
divided into Race / Religion issues! Black vs White / Christian vs
Muslim / Innocent vs Guilty ! They do this to keep our attention away
from what is REALLY going on! The fact is the United States of America
does NOT print it's own money! We have to borrow money from the Federal
Reserve! WHAT IS THE FEDERAL RESERVE EXACTLY? It's all the answers to
all the things you never got taught in your life it's the reason why we
are divided! 11 private banking families OWN the FED they control 80% of
the worlds printed "FAKE" "WORTHLESS" money! Why do we have wars? So
these same people who own the FED can take control of the other 20% of
the world money they don't currently print! You all think your so smart
with all your little comments you act like you understand the world NONE
of the comments I have seen here show any of REAL knowledge about why
these stories are so important for the media to talk about. They can't
afford for you all to wake up and start really learning things! Keep
them FIGHTING !!!!! Keep you glued to the TV to your social media
connection FEED those morons another reason to divide! That will keep
them all sleeping like a baby. Once you learn who the FED really is and
who the real players all it honestly becomes very simple to align the
dots. You take the BLUE PILL and find out how deep this rabbit hole
really is. You will understand that the movie the matrix wasn't a movie
it was a real thing where you all have been living and learning exactly
what you were suppose to like a good SHEEP! That's what you all happen
to be SHEEP sleeping away the truth ! Hope you wake up soon!
Millions of Americans must be thinking the same thing! Keeping this "trial" going, even though it has ended with the CORRECT VERDICT is being done INTENTIONALLY (led by corrupt ring leaders like Eric Holder, Al Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson) in order to keep the focus off of all the scandals.
1. Benghazi
2. IRS
3. NSA
4. Targeting of Rosen of Fox News
5. Guns killed more people as result of Fast and Furious scandal.
6. BHO's birth certificate is verified as 100% forgery.
I could probably keep that list going for a mile! But these are the most recent scandals THAT ARE NOT BEING INVESTIGATED AND PROSECUTED!!
So you see, dear readers, this is all being done by design. It is MONEY, POWER, AND CORRUPTION that keeps the Zero BADministration going. ANYTHING AND ANYONE who can keep the focus off of the GENUINE CRIMES going on, are being used to block the truth from coming out!
The individuals and groups that are doing these things are exchanging the truth for a lie:
Rom 1:28
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
Rom 1:29
being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality,[fn] wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,
Rom 1:30
backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Rom 1:31
undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving,[fn] unmerciful;
Rom 1:32
who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
The book of Jude informs us that these things will increase the closer we get to the end times.
Scripture tells us why true believers are those who know and believe that Jesus was sent by the Father. In Jesus'
prayer to His Father, he informs us:
Jhn 17:5
“And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.
Jhn 17:11
“Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me,[fn] that they may be one as We are.
Jhn 17:21
“that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.
Jhn 17:24
“Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.
Jhn 17:25
“O righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me.

I have gotten sick at several different restaurants in the past and when I do end up sick, I NEVER GO BACK!
I have not eaten at any "Golden Corral" restaurants and now that I've seen the filth and unsanitary conditions there, I never will!
When I see incidents like this, I don't feel confident about eating out at restaurants!
As long as we are on the subject of health issues, I must share that having digestive issues later in life [those of us in the 50+ crowd], seems to be a common ailment. Two discoveries of what to avoid have helped me tremendously!
First, about five years ago I learned that I was "lactose intolerant." (LT) I have heard that this can be hereditary in nature, but it also seems to develop more often in women (rather than men) later on in life. There are statistics out there that claim that over 50% of women (in particular) over the age of 50 become lactose intolerant!
I look for items in the health food grocery stores [e.g. Sprouts] that are designated as "lactose free." I love ice cream, but the only one that I have found so far that is designated as "lactose free" is Breyers vanilla. There are many soy and almond ice cream substitutes, and some of them are really good! But my favorite is the Breyers lactose free vanilla (with chocolate syrup on top)!
I was drinking a lot of soy milk when I first discovered that I was LT, but switched to Lactaid milk. FYI - once opened, soy milk and Lactaid milk should be consumed within seven days.
When I'm out at a restaurant, I try to choose items on the menu that don't contain any dairy products. However, if I'm not sure (or, I decide to have a little butter on the bread), I take a Lactase enzyme supplement. My favorite brand is Enzymedica "Lacto" which prevents bloating, is complete digestive support, and aids in cheese and milk digestion. It is vegan and kosher, and contains plant based enzymes. The label claims that it is the #1 selling enzyme brand. It sells for @ $20.00 for 30 capsules at Sprouts stores, but I usually stock up when they have their 25% off sales!
Several months ago, I still was not feeling right in my digestive tract. Admittedly, I used to love cake, brownies, pie etc., but decided that maybe I should try to cut down drastically on the sweets and also try eating a gluten-free diet to see if I would feel better. I could see the difference almost immediately, but after one week I knew that gluten-free eating was for me! Another positive result was that I dropped four pounds!
Natural food stores have the greatest selection of gluten-free products. I switched out my cereals, breads, and occasional "sweets" for whatever I could find in each aisle that were labeled "gluten-free."
I'm not an expert on this issue, so further research might be a good idea. However, when I asked a friend about where the gluten additives (they are in MANY products!) came from, she informed me that years ago, manufacturers started adding the "chaff" from the wheat that had been previously thrown out before using the wheat in breads cereals, and other food items!
It dawned on me that the Bible uses the analogy of "separating the wheat from the chaff" **for a reason! Supposedly, manufacturers use the chaff in their products now to keep costs down while achieving larger quantity production of their products. I ask, at what cost does this come to the health of individuals?
When I find myself eating a product that has gluten in it (which I try hard not to do!), Enzymedica also has a supplement called "GlutenEase" with DPP-IV Activity for Gluten and Casein digestion. It contains high potency DPP-IV, and provides additional support when eating foods that contain gluten or casein. If I recall correctly, the bottle that I bought cost @ $27.00 for 60 capsules.
Of course, you may want to consult your physician before taking any supplements.
When I consulted with my doctor and found out that I have osteo-arthritis, she recommended a diet called "The Mohrdar Diet" which was designed to help with easing inflammation. But I hated the fact that it recommended giving up shellfish! I love shrimp, crab, and lobster! However, eliminating beef from my diet did help ease my digestive problems because beef is always difficult to digest. Lamb is easier to digest so I have that at least 3 times per month. I eat chicken, turkey, fish, and lamb for protein.
Buying gluten-free products is more expensive. But to me - it's well worth the health benefits! Many gluten-free breads can be found in the refrigerated and/or frozen food sections of the store. Keeping them refrigerated after opening at home helps keep them fresh longer, too.
Questions and/or comments are welcome! I can always learn more!
Stay healthy!
