Nothing To See Here

Sperm Count Has Declined Almost 50% In Men Across The Globe In Recent Decades

Unfortunately, all we know from the study is that sperm count is declining, but not why.

Yet, earlier in the article they absolve worldwide Covid-19 vaccinations of any blame at all. They also neglect to mention the exponential increase in recommended vaccinations for children over the same time period as the study.

We will never solve problems if we refuse to look at all the possible causes.

“You’re an idiot…”

“…and that’s just my personal opinion not my religious opinion…”

Christians have a problem. How can one’s opinion of another human be devoid of religion? Is religion not the lense through which we determine good and evil in the world? Is it not how we mitigate emotional judgment? Is judgment not reserved for God? How can we speak to each other in insults?

“Don’t bring my religion into it…”

Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Don’t put your confidence in your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your path.
-Proverbs 3:5-6

What ever you do, whether in word or deed, do it in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks to God and the Father by Him.
-Colossians 3:17

I am often wrong. I often act out of anger and ignorance. I often fail to give thanks to God for all that I have. I often fall short of thinking of Him in all that I do.

I am not judging the self-proclaimed Christian who insulted me on a public forum and doubled down when given the oppotunity to retract. I believe I can use this moment to remind myself and others that the world is watching us and that, whether we like it or not, we are always Christians and always judged as such.

I can only speculate that this insult was inspired by a differing political opinion. Politics robs us of spirituality. It is entirely worldly. Politicians seek material wealth and oppressive power over others, no political career is driven by spiritual riches.

I pray that Christians can be released from the political trap set by the world’s elite to pit us against each other. We must rise above power grabbing and begin to love one other.

Him we proclaim, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man mature in Christ. For this I toil, striving with all the energy which he mightily inspires within me.
-Colossians 1:28-29 RSV

I stay humble, but unafraid, in sharing my relationship with Christ. I try not to preach, but I also don’t let too much conversation pass before making my faith in God known.

Illegal in Delaware

I could live without milk, but my boys love it. I’ve had trouble digesting pasteurized milk for a long time and it didn’t seem like the best choice for our family, then I started learning about A2/A2 and raw milk.

UPDATE: After reading about federal laws concerning raw milk, I don’t want to get any of our sources in trouble. I have removed all links to my resources, but encourage you to seek out information about A2/A2 and raw milk.

Raw milk is illegal for human consumption in Delaware. Considering how many toxic ingredients are approved by FDA, banning the sale of this natural source of nutrition is absurd.

We are loving the flavor of raw milk. It’s easier on my gut and retains the nutrients cooked out in the pasturization process.

I’ve been wrestling with a type of eczema for over two years and it has cleared up inconjunction with my switch to raw A2/A2 milk products and morning shot of apple cider vinegar. As I’m always trying to improve my habits, it’s hard to say the direct cause of my healthier skin.

I wish I could shoutout our suppliers, but we’re not supposed to be drinking this delicious stuff, nor transporting it across state lines.

Without a doubt, this rule breaking enhances the pleasure of the experience.

365 Devotionals: Good News

This same Good News that came to you is going out all over the world. It is bearing fruit everywhere by changing lives, just as it changed your lives from the day you first heard and understood the truth about God’s wonderful grace.
-Colossians 1:6 NLT

A setback here, a consolation or two there, today was a mixed bag.

I took a break with God’s word in the middle of my day and remembered how much my life has changed since I experienced the critical words in this verse: “…and understood the truth…”

I had heard the Word my whole life. As a youth in the Jehovah’s Witnesses, I studied it. I understood much of it on an intellectual level. In adulthood, I thought the lessons and warnings could lead me to righteous living.

They did not. My drinking and temper problems were impervious to the rules and dictates I tried to impose.

It wasn’t until my heart opened to relationship with Jesus Christ that I began to heal in His grace. Through His love I found a way to love myself and treat myself as God, the Father, wished.

Understanding comes through the heart, not the brain.

Stop Believing in the Democratic Process

Your government officials already have.

From Dr. Robert Malone:

Important to recognize that this is a work-around because congress is not funding more jabs into arms. If this product is put on the childhood schedule, Congress does not have a say in the funding. Furthermore, if the EUA vanishes, they the liability of the companies continues under the childhood schedule. This is corruption.

‘Child Abuse on a Massive Scale’: CDC Advisers Recommend Adding COVID Vaccines to Childhood Schedule

ACIP Votes to ADD COVID-19 Injections to the Childhood Schedule

There is a lot to read in these links, but it is all worth it.

The silver lining is that they are showing how little they respect the opinions of parents. Child covid vaccination numbers are miniscule and the powers that be are working to force you to enrich the pharmaceutical companies at the cost of your children. CDC and FDA are choosing profit over healthy children.

Schools will start to adopt these recommendations and parents will again revolt. Many have left in the last two years and many more will follow. The system is falling apart and will continue to collapse without the support of local families.

The transition will be difficult, but we are building alternatives to public schooling that are poised to challenge it at its foundations.

Soccer Beat Me Up

And so did these kids.

After Sunday’s soccer I was hobbling around and more achy than usual. I didn’t think too much of it. I play hard and the bruises are inevitable. I heal quickly and my body soon craves more movement.

This week was different. It didn’t feel like an especially punishing game, but I was sore for days. I rested and abstained from jiu-jitsu and yoga. On Wednesday I had a wrestling match with these boys. They’re getting strong and I think six of them joined in at one point. That didn’t speed my healing, but I need this kind of activity.

I returned to yoga and jiu-jitsu today. It was a lot and I didn’t train as long as I had planned. I try to know my limits and stop when I need.

I’ll take another break before soccer on Sunday. I can’t stop for too long.
