Hi Yolanda,
A piece of friendly advice...I've been noticing that you seem to mis-read what people say at times, and comment based upon your mis-interpretation. You've got some kind of nerve calling Lurker a wicked man, and is a perfect example of your, sometimes poor, comprehension. The advice is simply this: Ask someone to clarify if there's any chance you could be mis-understanding, or if they could have possibly worded things a bit better in getting their thoughts across.
Also, the other day, you were sure to let everyone know that the situation in South Africa with the farmers was all a lie, fake news, and warned not to believe any of it. You were pretty adamant about it. Just yesterday, South Africa's Julius Malema, defiantly confirmed to the world that it is in fact accurate, and expropriation without compensation. American and Austrailian farmers have confirmed the brutally murderous land grabs, so which part isn't accurate?

I've decided that you should have the last word. I am going on with growing in the grace and the knowledge of Jesus Christ.

My prayers are for ALL OF US to turn to the Lord with sincerity. ME TOO.

I'll pray for the family of John McCain. And I respect him for his distinguished military service. But McCain was no friend of conservative values. A devout Never Trumper. That he is receiving flowery praise from Obama, Chuck Schumer, Pelosi and Hillary pretty well tells the story of his political values.

My prayer is that you feel utterly ashamed as a child of Trump - having to demean one based upon the character of another.

Speaking of backsliders, Yolanda, please pray for my son in Arizona. He has been out of God's will for a long time. Thank you.

By the way, my children are professors and love one another dearly. However, periodically, and with more frequency, I will ask one of them if they think their sibling will enter heaven.

Things are changing.

God is working through this way of communicating with them. Ask him to call them unto himself, and in his judgment to remember mercy.

Please don't believe this report. Examine the facts. This is crucial especially for the times and Trump we are living in.

This is not factual. Don't believe this lie!

Yolanda, do you realize that the majority of your posts are negative and critical? Bemoaning something or someone that isn’t right. Just wondering. Not saying there is nothing out there that doesn’t need to be corrected

Regardless, aaaand again I will seek the Lord about this. Pray for this sister.

Thank you and keep nourishing.

A sad story, to be sure. Farming is just not something economically feasible for families, since it involves a lot of capital expense and then very little profit. You could make more money on your capital by buying a simple lawn mower and walking around your suburban neighborhood, offering to mow people's lawns. Or just ask to walk their dogs, watch their homes when they go on vacation, etc.
As to the churches getting involved, we can go back to last week's article here about "South Carolina abandoning churches" which might better be headlined: 'People in South Carolina leaving churches' since the churches-the physical properties remain, but are empty.
Farming is making money for the big guys who own hundreds or thousands of acres and can play the system of getting govt aid for not growing things. I think many of them are US Senators.

There are few motivating sermons heard today that would cause us to run into the streets proclaiming the greatest news known to mankind.

Mega conferences are becoming a disgrace also. We are gaining a lot of knowledge to puff up the one attending them and the ones speaking at the podium.

Ticket sales are flourishing. Hotels are making big bucks, etc.

Has anyone heard of a conference being held on how to win Muslims to Christ by losing your life?

I'm rambling. Please forgive me.

Christians can look forward to being blessed as we are persecuted more and more for being silent. Many seeds will fall to the ground and die. But the harvest will be plentiful.

Truthfully, I have never even read where this organization prays about issues.

The percentage of poor people is much higher among Blacks and it is for Whites, so this results.

those having a problem with being "White" are blinded to the tactics of the LGBTQ crowd making inroads into religion, politics, and morality. Neither can they see that they and their children will eventually fall into the same pit they have dug for others.

Whites have had politicians speak in their churches for years with great influence on the congregation. The preachers do the same by showing their support of certain politicians.

Thanks for the information Jim. But are there statistics on this?

You mentioned concern about your post.

"ended up in a different thread." This happens to me often. I think it happens when you comment on an article within the article in title. Or maybe take too long to post your comment.

Yolanda, did you decide to run for the School Board in your area? I think it's a good idea, though you might have to deal with intense media scrutiny, and then, if elected, you might be a 'voice crying in the wilderness' if the rest of the Board is not friendly with your positions.

In the meantime keep praying for our poor school children and their ill or uninformed parents.
