I remember reading something a while back in a post from a smart woman who usually has a great perspective on life. You see, she is someone who is all about living life fully, serving others, and making the most of the time you have with those you love. She creates magical memories for her kids, her friends, and her family.

(A COMMON MISQUOTE FROM THE BEATITUDES.) BUT THE TRUTH IS THEIR LIVES HERE ARE VERY HARD The poor are under attack in the United States of America. Many groups are under attack, but the common denominator is often economic status.  Much is being done to assure that these people will stay where they are or, in fact, lose assets and aid.

ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed.

No one knows why he was detained.
Green card holder from New Hampshire 'interrogated' at Logan Airport, detained
Fabian Schmidt’s family said they are unsure of why he is being held. They said he has a recently renewed green card, and no active issues in court.

Trump's Social Security Administration commissioner just called for a 50% staff reduction.

This would gut SSA field offices and make it harder for millions of seniors to access benefits. 

Make no mistake: this is an attack on Social Security itself.

Good for you! Those are some good books in your picture! Teach truth.
I have a blog where I ponder things, sort out my thoughts and emotions, and express myself better than I could by speaking. Trying to make sense of the church and what is happening right now, I wrote today after a long time of not writing.

History is repeating itself right here and right now. It has been a very long time since I have written. But it is time now to speak up and be heard. To be silent is to be complicit. And any one wh…

Trump is shutting down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, an agency that has returned nearly $20 billion to consumers since it was created in 2011. The CFPB helps businesses who play by the rules not be disadvantaged by businesses who cheat. Shutting it down will only hurt American consumers.

The co-author of Project 2025 and the Administration's new Budget Director, Russell Vought, ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop work.

This is a dangerous move by the Administration that will hurt consumers for the benefit of special interests.

First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.
Two books by Tish Harrison Warren, Prayer in the Night & Liturgy of the Ordinary, two I have gone back to often because they are inspiring to me. Also I would include Ragamuffin Gospel by Brennan Manning. Also some that aren't Christian in genre such as Tuesdays With Morrie by Mitch Albom.
Very sad and unfortunately absolutely true!
