Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

ROFLMAO !!! 🙃
While reading in Jonathan Cahn’s book today, The Return of the Gods, I had a strong urge to put up a billboard that said something like this:
ABORTION BRINGS DEATH
JESUS BRINGS LIFE
It’s certainly a time to stand and make our mark for Jesus. May God give us the strength to uphold His Truth in a nation falling from Grace.
he stood up
he was whipped
tied
beaten
battered
but he stood up
stand up
hello friends
is there anybody out there
drugs
was the only way out
you can overcome
Jesus help me
we can overcome
Yes, we are more than conquerors through Him (Christ) Who loved us.
He will deliver us from tribulations of all kinds.
Keep calling on Jesus – day and night!
He is near, and able to save.
That’s what I do.

cant wait to see my babe
love my babe
Grief means you loved, AP.
A huge price to pay for love.
But it’s still worth it.
🙏🏻
i still see her face
like it was yesterday
I’ve seen your picture of her … she was beautiful, AP.
Everytime you remember her face, give the memory of her “back to God.”
And, thank Him for the gift you had with her.
You’re separated now, but will be reunited.
Thank Him for that, too.
Your loss is deep, but it’s temporary, AP.
Think on good things … please try.

you gotta good memory
you remember
my memory
aint as good
no mo
things change
thanks for remembering
AP, I’m thankful for your posts this evening … giving a peek into your heart.
Because now, you have several people here praying for you.
I will, for sure.
My short-term memory is not as sharp as before …
But, if you’re like me – I remember those things I should forget.
And, I forget those things I should remember.
It truly is a battle of the mind. (For me)
What the apostle Paul wrote has strengthened me many days:
” … But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 3:13-14
God has left us here for a reason – to encourage others and help them to know Christ.
Satan has tried to destroy us – but, we’re still here.
Because the Lord wants us to remain a little while longer.
As a fisher of men – leading precious souls to God and His eternal kingdom.
The devil hates that, and us … BUT GOD is for us – not against us.
Yes, things change. And it SO hard to accept them. Especially as we (I) age!
But the Lord gives us Grace – His power to persevere.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.
He does not change! He still loves us, flaws and all.
🥰🙏🏻
Amen and Amen !!! What a beautiful soul you are, Ms D !!!
God Bless You Real Good !!! 💖🧚🏻♀️💖
Duchess, you’re a precious sister in Christ!
Thanks be to God for Who He is – and what He’s doing .
May He richly bless you!
🥰
AP
I am so sorry to hear of the pain from your great loss. Please know your family here embraces you, and understands. Thank you for all that you contribute. ❤️
The Lost Cow – Gustave Dore
I Wanna See My Baby
ever feel like a lost cow
wanna scream
i wanna see my babe
ANGEL OF GOD
Angel of God come visit with me
For lost and lonely I seem to be
Left alone without the love of my life
She was my joy – she was my wife
My heart hurts my head is pounding
My internal screams have no sounding
Emotionally exhausted I fall asleep
The pain is constant and oh so deep
Thank You, Lord, for music that soothes
It comforts and calms my soul it moves
My daily companion it has become
To its rhythm and cadence therefrom
I reach out to My Angel to lift me up
Steer me toward the blessing cup
This emptiness just will not go away
I need some semblance of her today
Send me a memory and make me smile
Give me the joy of her presence for awhile
Let me feel the warmth of her arms around
An expression of her love overtly abound
Help me feel grateful for the many years
Through the laughter, trials, and the tears
Through the challenges and the struggles
Accompanied by smooches and huggles
Help me to find happy once again
Even for a moment beyond the pain
Help me recall her spirit is alive
She can help me to revive and to thrive
It is as if she is still here by my side
Odd is it not from her I cannot hide
I can envision her face her surprise
As I stumble, fall, and then, arise
Oh, Lord, I do miss her so
Without her I have lost my mojo
I am clumsy I have lost my footing
Oh, the things I do to keep from looking
I shower I eat I dress and I work
Mechanically now I see her smirk
The joy in my life is nonexistent
The flow in my life is inconsistent
Ah but now that you are finally here
I can feel your spirit my lovely dear
You comfort me like no other can
Just as you did when our life began
D01: 10/24/2022
Another Wow, Duchess. ❤️
I’m sorry, AP, for your heartache.
Have never felt like a lost cow … but, I know pain. Lots of it.
I’ll pray for you,AP.
hardest part miss d
is
not givin in
to the dark side
Put One Foot in Front of the Other – Santa Claus is Coming to Town
In times like that, it’s a mind battle.
The flesh is weak.
The Lord, the Holy Spirit, will strengthen your spirit, if you ask.
Remember the devil offers us poison, death, misery.
The Lord offers us LIFE. Choose life.
Get a verse or two from Psalms and pray it back to God. Over and over.
These verses saved my life during a very hard time. I’ll never forget them.
1I waited patiently for the Lord;
he turned to me and heard my cry.
2He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
and gave me a firm place to stand.
3He put a new song in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Psalm 40.
praise to our God.
Yes, I praise Him, and thank Him every day, AP.
I tell the Lord that if I didn’t have Him in my life – and I didn’t know Him, I would be in a nuthouse. Or under a bridge. And, most likely – in a graveyard.
But He rescued me from deep, dark depression … hopelessness.
And put a new song in my mouth. His song.
Jesus gives us “songs in the night.”
If we ask Him.
”But no one asks, ‘Where is God my Maker, who gives us songs in the night,” Job 35:10

Hey Patriot I am reading your posts and wanted to stop in and give an open invitation for you to get the You Version Bible App… I just downloaded it recently so I could listen to the audio Bible… I’m not tech savvy when it comes to these apps… but here’s my friend link if you do…
Let’s connect with God’s Word together! Add me as a Friend on the YouVersion Bible App.
https://bible.com/users/thep12initiative105
Also I just set up a gettr account @The_American_Bulldog where I plan on making some posts, after the election, regarding a philosophical guideline that I have written called … The Dying Man And The Power Of Twelve (The P-12 Initiative…) It’s a Christian gameplan that I initially wrote for my adult daughters and their compadres in case things get unbearable for them in this country (right now they just think I’m nuts…lol)… sort of like a Christian survivor handbook… I decided a long time ago to not copyright it…
I sure could use some honest critique and some add to it and take away attitudes in hope that we can beat it into something greater than just my ideas from minds much greater than mine…
Lifes circumstances may have led you to the temptation of just saying “f*ck it” but I’m pretty sure you are here because your knowledge, experience and the light that is in you is still needed…
Father,
I pray this Brother joins Us in the great journey You have laid out for us and that it Glorifies You…
Thank You Father, Thank You Father, Thank You Father… Your Will be done!
Thank You Jesus, Thank You Jesus, Thank You Jesus… You are Our Way… Our Truth and Our Life… In Your Holy Name… Amen!
We All Love You Brother…
Keep The Faith…
Philippians 1:6 NLT
[6] And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.
I love this Truth, Bulldog!
Still believing it for some of my family members.
I’ve seen the work God began in them – tho, it seems to be on “pause.”
He will complete it – in His time and His way!
Bless you … 🙏🏻✝️
Bulldog, Your post grabbed me … it’s partly
an answer to my prayer last night for A Patriot.
I went to bed early, but got up twice during the night to pray for him.
Then, this morning I saw your comment.
Your loving, kind invitation is a perfect example of Christian character.
Offering yourself to help a stranger is the Good Samaritan…
An example of Jesus Christ … that’s what He would do.
Is your getter account open for anyone to read?
Sounds wonderful … and nevermind what others think – as God leads you to “prepare the way.”
Asking blessings for you, AB.
🙏🏻🥰
.
Della thank you for the kind words but in my case any goodness that escapes this carcass is attributed to the Holy Spirit…
I just want you to know that, from my perspective, your constant prayer for those you minister is healing, inspiring and soothing to those who they are directed to and to others, like me, who read your beautiful posts…
You are an amazing gift… what I would call… a physician for a wounded soul… a living example of a soft, kind loving heart and an inspiration to those of us who aspire to achieve the same… It is how Jesus describes us to be and it’s rare and special to see…
He says we should not be lukewarm in our journey (me paraphrasing / always paraphrasing…lol) and you are definitely on fire…
It would be a great honor to have your input on gettr…
Have A Great Night!
Oh my goodness, Bulldog … Your words humble me.
I am not worthy of these – but, will give them to the Lord!
It’s all Him, Bulldog – all Him … working thru me, a little worm.
I’m just like you! Anything Godly that comes from me is only by the Holy Spirit!
Yes, I am interested in what you plan to publish.
And, I admire you for this! That takes work and commitment … to help your family and others.
Love that, Bulldog!
God is on the move in His people – exciting days!
We must encourage one another in the Lord, as we see the “day” approaching.
Be blessed.
🥰🙏🏻
THE DARK SIDE
Have you been wallowing in self pity
Tempted to give up the nitty gritty
Refusing to take just one step forward
Declining to gaze beyond the shoreward
What would you accomplish if you laid back
If you cowered afraid to pick up the slack
If for some reason you wanted to die
What would that prove in a blink of the eye
There is a reason why you were left behind
Why you are facing life lost and so blind
God has a plan for your life henceforth
And your compass will always point due north
God knows our beginning and of our end
The time He has allotted here to spend
Apparently the unbeknown to you
Is what you’re doing here and what to do
During your life you experienced much
Not always with a partner was it such
You worked and labored at many a task
Is continuing on too much to ask
If you insist on living in the past
You will miss what God has for you amassed
His ways are not our ways and never will be
If you trust in His wisdom you will see
If you seek you will find the door open
To a place of repose filled with hope in
The person you will find behind the door
Is someone you met long ago afore
If you prayed for someone to ease the pain
Then your healing has begun for to reign
We can’t change the past or know what will be
We have only the present and the key
What is this key to the present we hold
What if anything hidden can be told
This key represents a new day in life
The end to misery and daily strife
It opens whatever door you allow
It brings fresh ideas with it somehow
It provides a sample of what could be
When you ask God for direction you see
If you try to heal wounds without His help
You will be spinning your wheels and whelp
Around and around backward and forward
Upside and down and inside and outward
Where are you going and when will you stop
Driving yourself dizzy till when you just plop
Why do you insist God reverses course
When it is He who wrote chapter and verse
God watches you struggle every day
To change what you cannot to your own way
He gives you clues as to what you must do
But you refuse to listen and heed too
In your frustration you turn to the drink
Maybe just maybe you will cease to think
You have tried it before what did it do
Did the Dark Side solve your problem for you
The solution to your problem is clear
Listen to His voice and you will soon hear
What He wants you to know and you must do
Simple and understandable for you

Fred Astaire – Santa Claus Is Comin’ To Town
Roerich is incredible. There’s a video from a tiny town in Russia, IF I recall correctly, that is, that has a Roerich Museum.
Wonderful paintings.
“Nicholai K. Roerich-Museum” on YouTube
++++++++++
This is kewl, but not the video I was looking for
HERE it is.
Rarely on YouTube is any video an obvious ‘Object of Love’, but this one is simply so genuine, so authentic, that it stands out as such.
The Russian woman speaks in English. It’s delightful, and you’d never ever catch this on TV 😂

“Great Siberia is Magnetizing”
[Nicholas Roerich Museum]
There is a Roerich museum in New York City, and yes his paintings are magnificent
Not interested in that museum.
NYC Upper West Side museum Roerich

Never.
Never ever.
Not EVER.
Never in a million years would I enter the NYC museum.
Roerich, like Gurdjieff has waaaay too many sketchy ties to the world of professional spycraft, to the earnest encouragement of the establishment of a mass following of cultic devotees, theosophical ties, most likely Freemason ties, ETC ETC ETC and he was supposedly Anti-Bolshevik tied until he WASN”T,
I’d never go to the NYC museum, any more than I’d go look at the “art” at the United Nations. Or visit the so called meditation room were it open to the public.
I strongly suspect that Roerich was involved with some, not all, of the primary foundations, ….and the very early early early “action” in Racine Wisconsin where according to @denythemark2020 on Twitter insists is the ROOT.
God only knows what evil lurks in the Heart of Racine, but it’s obviously BAD, very bad news.
This is my STRONG psychic intuition and I don’t give a hoot if there are no so-called historical facts to prove it.
