Keeping The Faith

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

By Linda Dipman Two weeks ago my daughter, Christy, and I were having a conversation. She stated that most girls have the kind of mom who share a spa day with them, who invite them to go get their nails done together or try out a new hairstyle. We both laughed at her words, because I was opposite from this kind of mom. In fact, my daughter ended the conversation with the statement, “Instead I get a mom who wants to save the world. And on top of it you dragged me into doing it too!” I don’t know what I would do without my daughter, I trust her completely. She edited my book. She edits every article I write and of course made some of the article writing hers. “Haunted Typewriter or God” and “The Key To The World Is Love” were her titles. She is also constructing my website: lovinghandsministry.com Christy has three children. Samuel is always reminding me that he is going to be four very soon. Paige just turned 2 and Sofia is 6 months. All are very energetic and Christy must give up sleep in order to work for me. Her faith in God is great and she endeavors to teach her children the same principles. She is all about living a Christian life and being a faithful and loving wife to her husband and a loving and good mom to her children. I tell her all the time that she comes from a long line of great Christian mothers. You would never believe that Christy had ever experienced anything but good in her lifetime. Most people believe that you can’t be so grounded and be such a good person if something bad has ever happened to you. You just had to have lived a charmed life! The common phrase we always hear is ‘bad things always happen to bad people’. Yet what people think is truth is often a lie. The real truth is that bad things happen to good people because our world is under the rule of Satan. John 5:19, “We know that we belong to God even though the whole world is under the rule of the Evil One.” When Christy was five and attending kindergarten the worse possible thing happened in her life. Her parents divorced and she and her brothers became the ponds in a huge custody battle. I suppose this custody fight wouldn’t have been so traumatic if it weren’t for the fact that our family was so religious. Her dad was an ordained deacon and his father was a Baptist minister. My own sister and her husband were in full time ministry and I our family came from a long line of ministers and missionaries. Everything Christy was ever taught was about obeying God and serving in church. You see in 1986 divorce was a very big sin! Yet there is a sin that is bigger than divorce and that is the sin of being gay! I would go as far as to say that for the church it is even bigger than murder! Churches preach that homosexuality is wrong! Using Sodom and Gomorrah as a story illustrating God’s hatred of gays. But they quietly leave out scripture that leaves out the real reason for the destruction of these cities. 2 Peter 2:6, “God condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, destroying them with fire, and made them an example of what will happen to the godless.” The scripture specifically states that it was not about sexual sin, but about godlessness. Never the less churches, families, and society throw out their gay family members because the churches skip these scriptures. Because Theologians and religious historians refuse to set the record straight, homosexuals are deprived of their children and denied justice in the courts. They are humiliated, persecuted, killed and despised all in the name of God. Ezekiel 16:48-50, “As surely as I am the living God, the Sovereign Lord says, ‘your sister Sodom and her villages never did the evil that you and your villages have done. She and her daughters were proud because they had plenty to eat and lived in peace and quiet, but they did not take care of the poor and the underprivileged. They were proud stubborn and did the things that I hate, so I destroyed them, as you well know.’” They say, love the sinner but hate the sin. But Christy can tell you that this is not true! You can not love what you hate. It is like telling Satan that he has to love God and we all know how impossible that would be! Because people have been misled by the church, everything I did as a good Christian mother was counteracted by me falling in love with a woman. It didn’t matter how much I loved my children or how diligent I was in teaching them about God and doing service in my church. Because of false teachings, a huge tug-of-war began not just between husband and wife, but with husband, church, family, friends and society all against me. A battle that was so tipped in favor of her dad that Christy struggled to love me regardless of what they said about me. In fact, Christy and her brothers became so entangled in the fight for who had the right to be custodial parent that you would have thought that they would have never had anything to do with God ever! Because God was the reason they were not to love their mother. They were told they couldn’t love me because I was living a life of sin. They were confused by strangers who told them how unlucky they were to have a mom who had fallen from God’s grace and chose to live an ungodly lifestyle. From church to school to the small town they lived in, they were constantly the center of unwanted attention because of their Satan possessed mother. Christy didn’t want this kind of attention! She just wanted her mom. She didn’t care what the church had to say, she just wanted to live with her mom. She didn’t understand why everyone was in such an uproar, because she saw me as the same mom who loved her and had taken care of her since birth. So you can see that her childhood was not peaceful. She was taken away from her mom and given to her dad. I was given no visitation and as a result I fled with my children and was arrested and put in jail while Christy endured being put in the hands of the SRS. Christy saw her mother attacked by her father, while the pastor and a deacon watched. She saw her mother being stalked by church members in the name of God. She saw her grandparents turn their back on her mother and wish her dead. She was forced into counseling as a small child. She was forced to go before a judge and tell him who she wanted to live with. Even after she stated she wanted to live with her mom, the judge ignored her words. Time and again she was involved in one court proceeding after another while her testimony to live with her mother was disregarded. Whenever visitation resumed with her mother she was interrogated by her father, councilors, and family. It is amazing today from the persecution my daughter endured from church, society and family members that she came through fifteen years of childhood holding onto her faith regardless of whether her prayers were answered or not. It took until my daughter was an adult and able to make up her own mind that she began to see the mother that I really was. A mother who loved her and wanted the best for her and her family. Today our bond is strong because of our mission to tell the world the truth about God and love!

White Sun - Life of Lao Tzu

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

By Teow Aun Chew The life of Lao Tzu is a mysterious one. His last name is “Li” and his first name is “Er”. “Bo-yang” is his courtesy name and “Dan” as his posthumous title. He was born in 571 BC during the time of King Ding of Zhou Dynasty in Chen County, State of Chu. He served as the Custodian of the Imperial Archives for King Ding. His father had a family name of Han and the first name Qian, with Yuan-bi as his courtesy name. His mother’s name was Jing-fu. His mysterious birth stated that his mother was pregnant for eighty years and he was born under a plum tree. Thus Lao Tzu adopted the Chinese character for plum (pronounced as Li) as his surname. He is the first scholar to inherit the heritage of Tao and then he passed it to Confucius. After transmitting the essence of Tao to Confucius, he rode a green ox and went to the west through Fort Han-gu. He enlightened the King Yin-xi in the west. His teaching emphasizes on distancing emotions and desires and maintain one’s True Nature. By excluding all images in the material world, his way of reaching the Void (Heaven of Truth) is from the Heaven of Spirit. When the True Fire and True Water inside the body become complementary, the process of refinement will give birth to the immortal embryo. He wrote “Tao Te Ching” and “Qing-jing Ching, also known as Ch’ing-ching Ching” to teach people. He is greatly respected as the founder of Taoism. For ages, the Chinese general belief has been that man must show that he is strong and not pliant; smart and not dull. But Lao Tzu came and said that man must show pliant and not tough. Man must have no motives and desires; be selfless, pure-minded and natural. He is strongly against materialism and advocates a life of natural goodness. Realizing that the Zhou’s reign was disintegrating, he left Luoyang and went west through the Han Gu Pass. The keeper of the pass, Lin Yinxi, when met Lao Tzu at the pass, requested Lao Tzu to please write something to give him guidance. So Lao Tzu wrote a book made up of two parts, consisting of about 5,000 characters. Upon completing the book, Lao Tzu left and nobody knew where he went after that. The book is called Tao Te Ching. My Heavenly Master JiGong said, “The books that you are reading (including Tao Te Ching) now are created by ancient people. Then the books that were created and handed down to you by the ancient people are actually telling you a road and a path for learning. Every matter must have its Truth and principle, and they must have its longitudes and latitudes (rules and norms).” Author: T.A Chew T.A Chew, in 1994 was told by a deity “blood brother of Lao Tzu” that Maitreya Buddha needs him to carry out a great mission in 12 years time, that is year 2006. Recalling this incident, it must be the propagation of Tao through the internet to reach out to millions.

Using Chinese Techniques For Your Health and Strength

Monday, August 27th, 2007

By Roy Thomsitt Chi Kung and T’ai Chi are only two of the keys to self trust and to physical harmony. With the use of these techniques you can succeed with many accomplishments, without having to put yourself through great psychological or physical efforts, violent conflicts or aggression. You may be sure that, once you dominate the genuine laws of the universe, which you assimilate by these methods, it will be impossible for you to be dominated by someone else. Chi Kung the art of internal harmony Chi Kung is a philosophical system at least 5000 old, which made survived through all those the centuries, to become very popular at the beginning of this millennium. This art of the vital energy is the most advanced and complex method of improving health and longevity, by offering a feeling of harmony with yourself and with the surrounding world. The four main principles of this technique are: the mind, the eyes, the movement and the breathing. The mind represents the intention, the eyes are considered the focusing of intention, the movement is the action of intention and the breathing is the flood of intention. It obviously takes time and practice to understand their dynamics fully. The benefits which result from practicing Chi Kung can be divided into five: 1. Curing illnesses, and a general improvement in health; 2. Gaining an increase in vitality, and the development of your internal force; 3. Prolonging youth; 4. Cultivation of the mind and intellectual capacities; and, 5. Spiritual progress. According to Chinese medicine, various diseases can be the result of such human characteristics as anger, sadness, joy, harmony and optimism deficit. All these factors, coupled with poor diet and nourishment, cause Chiu the vital energy either to diminish, or to be present in only certain parts of your body. By practicing Chi Kung you can learn to be more conscious of whats going on in your inner universe, and to build yourself a defensive system against the disequilibrium, which affects your vital force. The harmony of breathing, and the agility obtained without efforts during the training sessions, confer a better concentration and a fast recovery from stress, tiredness, by inviting you to meditation. T’ai Chi Chu’an the wonder dance You have probably seen on TV that in China, very early in the morning, hundreds of people, in large groups or alone, perform apparently weird movements out in the open. This exercise, with waving movements, is an ancestral inheritance. The eternity of the universe, and the rhythm of its permanent changes, have brought about the idea that the human being can become immortal, if only he adapts to and follows this rhythm. This technique represents a putting into practice of the subtle side of the human being (spiritual evolution, mental control etc) and the physical side (muscles, articulation, bones etc). Whenever you feel intellectually or physically tired, T’ai Chi Chu’an gives you the possibility to gain back, in only a few minutes, your strength and your harmony. There are also other Chinese arts whose efficiency has been proven over the centuries, so why not attend Chinese seminars, or search the internet, in order to get more information, whenever you have the chance? It is a move you may well benefit from, in body, mind and spirit.

7 Tips How To Read His Sexual Body Language

Saturday, August 25th, 2007

By Coco Swan Is he hot for you or not? Is that sexy smile aimed at you? You can learn how to understand his flirting gestures. Interpreting his male body language has never been easier! 1: Shifting his weight back and forth on his heels. This is considered to be subconsciously a mirroring of knee trembling. One of the surest body language gestures that he is hot for you. 2: Hand pointing in the direction of his pelvis. If he has his hand in his front trouser pocket, or has his hand resting on his belt, with a finger pointing straight down to his pelvis then anyone looking at him is drawn to his crotch. His whole body is highlighting his groin in this highly sexual body language stance. 3: Stroking his nose. When a man spies a woman he is attracted to, then unconscious preening begins. Other body language gestures to look out for are rearranging his clothing, rubbing a finger along an eyebrow or pushing a hand through his hair. Along with the tie, the nose is a phallic symbol. 4: Playing with his tie. The tie is basically a signpost to his penis, according to body language experts. If he should start playing with or stroking his tie, then there is a great chance that he is interested in you. By taking the initiative yourself and stroking his tie admiringly, you are giving him a very strong sexual signal. 5: Sitting with legs wide open on the barstool. By sitting like this he is offering you a great view of his crotch. If he should start to rock back and forth on the stool as well, look out. The male body language here spells the one thing on his mind is you. 6: Standing with hands on his hips. By standing like this he is emphasizing his size. By taking up more space he is appearing larger and more domineering. In cave dwelling times females chose the bigger males for better means of survival, which explains why many girls go for the powerful and strapping type. 7: Pelvic display. The more enthusiastic the guy is, the further apart his legs will be, irrespective of whether he is standing up or sitting down. This is considered to be very primitive flirting body language and is also behavior seen in the monkey families. Basically he is showing you his fantastic package, on a purely subconscious level, of course. Guys have basic primal urges and are still operating off caveman instincts subconsciously. Men are still using the same body language as they did in prehistoric times, much of which is also seen in the animal kingdom. Compared to us girls, guys have a much smaller range of flirting body language gestures and those that they do use are very easy to spot. Luckily for us. Obviously reading his body can be easier than reading his mind. Look for groupings of the above for highly interested flirting signals. Three or more and he is yours! Fortunately, now we no longer live in caves, we can at least expect some civilized gestures such as a drink and conversation before being dragged off to the modern day equivalent of the cave. Cheers! Coco Swan. Copyright 2007 Author Coco Swan Coco recommends reading this easy-path and increasingly popular guide to making sure you get the guy you want. You can get instant access here at how to get that guy. If you want a more sensible way to find a new partner than scouring through endless dating sites, you would be best to use special or reviewed dating sites that have been given the once over.

Depression: Are Antidepressants The Best Choice? (Part Two)

Friday, August 24th, 2007

By Hector Milla Antidepressants are the best stimulus in the process to empower depressed people to have positive thinking and raise themselves esteem, because at the beginning it is quite difficult to think about and do this. Taking anti-depressants helps a lot of people to shift their moods and then these medications give them the possibility to work on other therapies. Antidepressants work by slowing the removal of neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and norepinephrine, from the brain. These neurotransmitters are needed for normal brain function and are involved in the control of mood among other things as eating, sleep, pain, and thinking. Antidepressants make these natural chemicals more available to the brain. These medications aid to relieve the symptoms of depression by restoring the brain’s chemical balance. Though antidepressant drugs are also used to treat other diseases, such as eating disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder , chronic pain and premenstrual syndrome, among others, these drugs are quite usefull to reduce hopelessness, extreme sadness and lack of interest in life which are typical signs of depression Antidepressants are taken for a 4-to-6-month period, however, some patients and their doctors may decide that antidepressants are needed for a longer time. There are many different types of antidepressants, such as the following: Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and Tricyclic antidepressants (tricyclics),among others. Antidepressant drugs can cause side effects as most of medicines. Some side effects may be inability to become aroused and difficulty achieving orgasm, but not all people get these side effects. The doctor may adjust your medication regimen in order to be able to continue taking the antidepressant needed without any side effect.

Family Tree Worksheet

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

By Trevor Dumbleton One of the quickest ways to get your family tree started is with a family tree worksheet. These handy aids to helping you start your family tree are widely available, inexpensive, and can help you understand how family trees are created and organized. The family tree worksheet usually takes the form of a predesigned family tree that will allow you to fill in the names of family members in the requisite locations, helping you construct your family tree. Beginning with you, it works up to your parents, adds in your siblings, then goes up to your grandparents, then out to your aunts, uncles, cousins, and as many names as that particular worksheet will hold. These sheets are usually fairly extensive, so they will probably use up all the names you can remember before you managed to fill in every square. However, if you need more space, you may not even need a worksheet to continue. Filling in a family tree worksheet is not just a task. It teaches you about family trees as you make one. By running you through design and creation, a family tree worksheet will help you understand how family trees are designed, what they mean, and how you can create your own family tree from scratch. If you want to continue your studies of genealogy and your ancestry, you will have the knowledge you need to construct your family tree correctly. As the family tree is, in many ways, the core of genealogical study by providing a graphical explanation of how everyone fits together, learning the family tree is vital. If you wish to purchase a family tree worksheet, you can find them in a variety of locations both in the malls and online. It does not take too much searching and the worksheets, including instructions, are often relatively inexpensive. Thus, they are an inexpensive way to get your genealogy chart up and running. Whether you want to put together a small family tree or begin an extensive survey of your familial relationships, you can use a family tree worksheet to get your everything together. For people new to drawing up family trees, they can be an invaluable aid to constructing the forms, connections, and format of this indispensable portion of genealogy. So if you want to learn how to construct your own family tree, the family tree worksheet is a great place to start.

A Quick Guide To Food Allergy Treatment

Monday, August 20th, 2007

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Allen_Matthews] Allen Matthews This article has been written for those readers who have already been diagnosed with a food allergy. If you are worried that you may suffer from a food allergy, then your best course of action, is to contact your Doctor or GP and have them help determine whether or not you have a food allergy. They will do this by taking a series of tests to help gauge your reaction. Remember to bring a detailed case history of your previous reactions with you, so that the doctor has a better idea of your condition. An allergy to food is when you have an adverse physical reaction to a food item after eating it. The most common food allergy is a Peanut Allergy, which affects from 1% - 1.5% of the population. It is also possible to outgrow a food allergy over time, however with a peanut allergy, this is rather unlikely. Treatments For Food Allergies As of today, the only treatment available for someone with a food allergy is prevention. That simply means they must carefully watch what they eat, to make sure that they avoid the food that causes their allergic reaction. Your GP or a professional dietician can sit with you and list what types of food you may need to remove from your diet (moreover, they can show you what kinds of food alternatives you can replace them with). Sometimes however, being careful, may turn out to not be enough. Especially in the case of a peanut allergy, an unwanted food item (or even food trace) can slip into your meals by mistake (in one well documented case, a peanut allergic school girl had an adverse reaction to peanuts after her chicken sandwich was mistakenly made using a knife that had previously been used to make a peanut butter sandwich). Adverse reactions, such as swelling around the mouth or a severe rash, must be immediately treated with emergency antihistamines. When it comes to food allergies, the best treatment is to always be cautious, carry a card or a bracelet that details your allergy, and always carry emergency antihistamines.

Surviving Your Extended Family

Monday, August 20th, 2007

By Stephanie Graham We all want to do the noble thing and help a friend or family member in their time of need. Natural disasters, illness, job loss, death, and a host of other unplanned circumstances sometimes makes it necessary for us to open our home to others. Despite your best efforts, your extended family situation can become extremely difficult to live with. Whether you are the host or the person in need of assistance, it is important to establish a few ground rules to keep the environment functioning harmoniously. If you dont establish a few things upfront, emotions could flare up and result in arguments and sometimes even physical violence. Here are some helpful suggestions that will allow you to preserve your relationship with your loved ones: DO: Meet with family members to discuss expectations (yours and theirs) during the extended stay. Familiarize your new guest with how things currently work in your household. Be sure to cover items that you are a stickler about (i.e., no shoes on in the house, no eating outside of the kitchen or nook area, smoking, computer usage, etc.).DONT: Dont assume that your family members have been observant enough to know what you want done in your home or how to do it. If your family member didnt have a dishwasher or high tech appliances in their home, they may be apprehensive about using yours. The same goes for high tech electronics and other gadgets. Show your relative how to use your gadgets without altering your favorite settings. Another important point is usage of your personal computer. Let them know if your office pc is off limits. Additionally, let them know what to do to avoid downloading viruses and spyware onto your PC. DO: Whenever possible, carve out a space or room where your extended family members can store personal items or have some privacy. They may still need to iron out some very personal matters in private. If a full bedroom is unavailable, provide a kitchen cabinet or drawer to help them to stay organized and keep their clutter out of your site. If this is not a good option, consider a room divider or curtains. DONT: Dont move your guests to a different place in your home every week. Think ahead about the most convenient place to make their temporary residence. If you know that the individual is a junky monkey, then dont put them up near the entrance of your home or in areas frequented by your friends and business associates. It will cause a lot of unnecessary frustration for you and your relative. DO: Do consider your guests dietary requirements. There are many people who are vegetarians or who exclude pork and beef from their diets. If your guests culinary preferences are too extreme, direct them to a place where they can purchase food or dine the way they normally do without inconveniencing you. You can also invite them to prepare their favorite dish as a way to make them more comfortable and to allow your family to experience a new cuisine. DONT: Dont expect your guests to eat salty, sugary, or high-fat foods, if they have indicated theyve given them up for health reasons. Simply invite them to participate in the meal preparation or sit a portion of the meal aside prior to adding the salt or sugar that suits your taste. DO: Solicit your guests participation in chores, errands, childcare, and bill paying regardless of how brief you intend for their stay to be. Youll only handicap them by being too accommodating. If your guest has a cash flow problem and is unable to pay rent or a bill, they can still assist with chores, errands, or childcare. If they have a small amount of income, give them the responsibility of replenishing grocery items that are consumed quickly like milk, juice, fruit, bread, and cereal. DONT: Dont allow anyone to stay in your home without getting them to acknowledge the importance of making a contribution. They need to commit to doing something consistently to sustain the household. The well being of your household is of extreme importance to you and should be to them. Guests sometimes assume that because they spend the majority of their time in their designated room or area, that there is no need to contribute or be concerned with the maintenance of the rest of the house. DO: Create a sign-up schedule for shared resources to avoid arguments. People tend to want to cook or wash at the same time someone else planned to do so. Disagreements about laundry, transportation, exercise equipment, computers, TVs and other media can become a huge problem very quickly. DONT: Dont allow your guests last minute activities to disrupt the entire household. Make your family planning calendar accessible so that your guest can advise everyone of his or her schedule far enough in advance. Transportation and other major issues should be discussed and resolved in advance. DO: Insist that your guest continues to be the primary caregiver for their offspring. If your guest has a child, take steps to childproof your home immediately. Put away razors, matches, chemicals, and other harmful objects. Also, discuss sensitive issues like excessive noise, running through the house, bedwetting, and items that are off limits before problems arise.DONT: Allow your guest to be careless with things that you cherish. Be sure to protect your valuables if you are accommodating guests with children. Make it clear that your guest should monitor their children at all times. If items are broken or damaged, advise your guest of how the incident should be handled (i.e., replace the item, clean the carpet, etc.). DO: Do consider your guests likes, dislikes, (and their habits) before inviting them to stay at your home. You may get along just fine with your guest but what about their friends, family, and significant others? Does your guest expect to entertain and accommodate others at your expense? It shouldnt happen but it can if you dont address the issue up front. Is your guest a night owl? You should know these things in advance. Dont: Allow guests to disrespect your home. Communicate your feelings about late night visitors, smoking, drinking, parties, loud noise, etc. What you consider to be “out of bounds” may just be the norm with your visitor DO: Offer to provide your guest with the resources they need to get up to speed. Help with an online job search or a resume. Put them in contact with a business associate who may know of an opportunity. Be inspirational and uplifting DONT: Buy into excuses that will result in you accommodating your relative much longer than the time you both originally agreed to. Dont participate in the family gossip sessions that only serve to anger and alienate. Dont discuss your guests personal problems with others without their permission. It could cause unnecessary family rifts. Treat them as you would want to be treated if the situation was reversed. Now that youre in sync with the Dos and Donts of living with extended family, think about what a blessing it is to have friends and family to share your home with in the first place! Stay optimistic about the situation and things are sure to work out. Invest a little time to help them get back on track with a career. Be encouraging and uplifting so that they will regain their self-confidence and independence. Life is short so make it sweet. Give what you can from the heart and your blessings will be returned tenfold. Stephanie is an accomplished author, speaker, trainer, and business consultant for the mortgage industry.

The Secret Language of Flowers

Saturday, August 18th, 2007

By Diana Cochran Since ancient times people have used flowers to communicate their feelings, thoughts and ideas to others. Lewis Carroll sent Alice in Wonderland through the looking glass into a garden filled with talking flowers. The ancient Greeks and Egyptians endowed flowers with the power of Gods and the spirit of humanity. Many today give flowers with only a partial understanding of the message the flower holds for the receiver. Below, explore the messages of some of humanity’s most cherished flowers. Thistle, Scotland’s national emblem, is a symbol of hard work, suffering and is believed to be a flower capable of dispelling melancholy according to the ancient Greek botanist Diosorides.

Honeysuckle has stood the test of time as a symbol of lasting pleasure, permanence and steadfastness since the middle ages. Lily, a flower of purity, has been used as a strong religious symbol especially during the Christian celebration of Easter. According to the ancient Greeks, white lilies were created from the milk of Hera, the mother of Gods. Tulip, a symbol of spring, wealth and life after death, this flower was originally grown in Persia; but is currently known as the flower perfectly cultivated by the Dutch. During the 16th and 17th century this flower was so sought after that people traded their homes and ships filled with cargo for only a few bulbs.
