We've Made 250 Years America, Now What?

We did it and most of us did it in style. We just finished celebrating America's 250th birthday. The planets and stars in heaven are saying after the 4th of July weekend, there will be a great shift happening in the people of Earth.

In the astrology and wellness communities, many intuitive readers and astrologers are pointing to a major "timeline shift" this July. Influencers are emphasizing themes like amplified consciousness, the death of old illusions, and rapid personal growth designed to rewrite our collective energy.

Yes, astrologers, those who do horoscopes, and tarot readers are saying, "An awakening and change of beliefs are changing and it's major for the month of July. Authenticity and truth will cause the need for change." These people watch the movement of planets, know the history of what occured in history when planets and stars lined up in certain ways. God gave the bodies in the heavens as signs. Some people choose to pay attention without worshipping what God uses for communication with man.

Just as people sneer ans scoff at the idea that God speaks to people, they scoff and condemn people for believing the planets and stars have any relavence in human's daily lives. I'm not trying to convince you to believe or not believe. I write about what I know and I know God is trying to get the attention of humans to repent and turn from their sinful ways in every way available.

For me, I had an awakening of my own. I realized my entire life I've been waiting to die. Yes. You read right. I expected bad things, pain, rejection, and no love daily. It was easy to believe I didn't deserve anything good. To be humble means not expecting grand things from God in my understanding of the Bible. And I also praised the horrible things that happened and I was always prepared for, as GROWTH, WISDOM. 

I believed 100% that Satan was always on the prowl seeking those he could devour and kill. I believed in Satan's power without questioning nor doubting it. But, God's ability to give us good blessing, miracles beyond our belief, I doubted wholeheartedly even when Scripture and my personal walk with God told me to believe His word above all else.

I waited for bad, which is promised, and actively denied and ran from the good promised to me by God. I never believed I did anything worthy of goodness, because I came short everyday of being sin free, not worshipping enough, not praying enough, not having faith to make it out of the really tough times. I believed I was never going to be a good embassador of Christ. Each day, I recounted and repented for sin. Many days were, in essence, filled with self-torture of I don't deserve good because I'm not good. If good showed up, I waited for the shoe of bad to show up and not even acknowledge the good. It was like, "Get out of the way good, so the bad can hurry up and come and be over with quickly." Good to me, signaled bad is coming.

I needed to do something after this realization, believing in man's power to hurt and harm, Satan's power to hurt and harm, without question and with expectation. I DIDN'T believe in God's love for me and wanting good things for me. He gives love and gifts even better than earthly parents, and I wanted to die everyday. I was wrong on so many levels. 

What I needed was the RENEWING of my mind like the Scripture tells me to have in Romans 12ff. I had done some things right in my misinterpretation of God's love. I tried to offer myself as a LIVING sacrifice of WORSHIP trying to be holy and pleasing to God. Somehow I had sense enough to strive to do that. In Romans 4 we read our faith gives us CREDIT with God. Our FAITH is credited as RIGHTEOUNESS in God's eye. Faith in his goodness, not just fear of his wrath, is counted as righteousness. Romans 5 goes on to say believers are FREE from God's wrath and are given PEACE and JOY. More Scripture I evidently didn't believe.

Mind renewal is what is needed by us all going forward. The Bible says renewal of the mind is a TRANSFORMATION that ALLOWS us to be able to TEST and APPROVE what God's WILL is, His good, pleasing, and perfect will, Romans 12:2. You are to think highly of yourself with sober judgement in accordance with the MEASURE of faith God has GIVEN you. I thought you could never think highly of yourself as it is bragging. No. God said, think of yourself highly where God has increased you in faith. Mature Christians should have pride in the faith that grew them and kept them in relationship with God. It is his GIFT to his believers who have faith in Him. 

Each member of the body of Christ HAS a GIFT. The gift given to you, whether anyone agrees or acknowledge it is to be used to it's fullest. It can't be used if you believe only BAD is life's fate. It's not. My name, when spoken, means GIFT OF GOD, and I have lived my life as anything but. Trying to be humble, sinfree, righteous, and/or a good Christian, left me unable to live in anticipation of joy and God's goodness. I had a SPIRIT of COMPLAINT. I wasn't anyone's gift. Not even a gift to myself.

My pastor said a thing that caught my attention Sunday. He said, "Have you ever seen a lighthouse CHASE boats?" That was profound to me. Our gifts are a light which we are told to be in the world. Many of us use our light to chase, demand, condemn. A light guides the boats to safe harbor. Boats SEARCH for the lighthouse for guidance and direction. That light is given to every Christian, but in seeking God and his will, we sometimes get distracted. 

If our president is a good example of anything it's DISTRACTION. Distraction is used to keep the eyes and ears from TRUTH, what is REAL. It is easy for me to believe and except distraction from what is true and good, when I have NO faith in the POWER of God and His word. I chose to believe in the world's and Satan's power and not my God's power. My mind needed renewing and quickly.

God's word is the truth in the truthless wolrd we NOW live in. But we don't believe it wholeheartedly. The Word of God is a part of our battle uniform, the Armor of God. I have not been properly dressed for war. My war was in my head. I was fighting against the goodness of God, that it wasn't meant for me. I was a REAL Christian always fighting against evil and growing more and more weary everyday. 

God wants me to have joy and peace. He also said for those who DELIGHT in Him, he will GIVE the DESIRES of their HEART, Psalm 37:4. To delight in Him is to always know He wants the best for you/us down to every hidden and known desire of our hearts. God has proven this to me so many times, yet I became bogged down in only recognizing and anticipating bad for my life. 

Today, I choose to stand in FAITH, on the words of Scripture. My life is going to be UNBELIEVABLY magical with great gifts and miracles from God. I believed the worst of God in which he rather not give, and not the LOVE of God which He WANTS to give His children.

The part of the prayer that says, "On earth as it is  in heaven," resonates more in a new way. I have ALWAYS looked forward to the day I see God face to face. I have pictured me falling to his feet in tears, seeing the ONE who loved me, watched over me, choose me. The Lord's PRAYER says I can have that same love and adoration for Him on earth like the angels already have in heaven. I can have that SAME feeling here on earth if I allow such joy and happiness into my life right now.

I have decided to choose to LIVE and honor God's will that I do live. I welcome everything He has for me as He allows me to remain on earth. I've embraced the ugliness and meanness of life. Now it's time to have that SAME kind of FAITH for the good things God is bringing into my life the rest of 2026 and beyound. You CAN too. I'm renewing my mind lining up with God's words of blessings and goodness. I'm saying His power is ABOVE every power known to man and He loves me. I'm going to LIVE LIKE GOD LOVES ME. 

I'm running to this new direction in life, taking ALL limits and my own imposed restrictions on God off. I'm inviting His love for me to show up and show out. Complaining is done because my EXPECTATIONS of evil and disappointments have CHANGED. I will SING of the GOODNESS of God. I repented and I've turned. Can't wait to see what miracles and blessings God has for my future.

Do Republicans BAIT the Mentally Ill?

Have you noticed how Republicans pick a lie, circle it, stick to it, repeat it until it becomes the truth? It's so brazen, it is difficult to miss. It is done so often, until it is easier to pass lies off as truth. This is because there are certain people waiting to hear and be triggered by certain words.

Certain Mental Illnesses come with certain characteristics. Depression and anxiety cross lines and become a PART of several diagnosis. Paranoia and beliefs in conspiracies, fall in others. But there are mental illnesses which are characterized by a feeling of grandiosity, which is often seen as arrogance or a larger dose of self-confidence. In Mental illness, the everyday emotion is heightened or lessened in a person until it interferes with daily living. In today's ORCHESTRATED polarized climate, EMOTIONS are heightened to the point of becoming MENTAL ILLNESS.

What does a sense of grandiosity have to do with the Republican party and Donald Trump? Well, they use dog whistles to bring out the worst in people and flattery to make people believe they are better, smarter than others and the only KNOWER of TRUTH. This playbook is used daily and those who emotions are heightened, become susceptible pawns manipulated by calculated trigger words. Words the Republicans are using to describe the No King Rally scheduled for the weekend of October 19, 2025.

One leader of history had feelings of grandeur and spoke to that part of other men to enlist their help voluntarily at first, then under threat. Adolf Hitler displayed grandiosity as a central aspect of his personality, fueling his actions and worldview. This trait was so pronounced that many retrospective psychological analyses suggest he exhibited characteristics consistent with Narcissistic Personality Disorder. 

Schizophrenia, is a disorder plagued by suspicions and conspiracies. The Republican party have many prominent leaders who speak about conspiracies, and they floated and maintained the biggest conspiracy theory of all, President Biden was never a legitimate president in 2021. This continued declaration was led by Donald Trump whose words incited the Capitol Riots of January 6, 2021. 

Schizophrenia is a chronic mental health condition characterized by significant disruptions in thought processes, perceptions, emotions, and behaviors. It is typically diagnosed in late adolescence or early adulthood and is characterized by the following symptoms:

• Delusions: 

  False beliefs that persist despite evidence to the contrary. 
• Hallucinations: 

  Sensory experiences (e.g., hearing voices, seeing things) that are not real. 
• Disorganized thinking and speech: 

  Difficulty expressing thoughts clearly, making connections, or following a logical sequence. 

Many of Trump's followers will quickly tell you, Biden stole the election from Trump without any proof but plenty of anger and outrage. This is what the Republicans want, not truth.

The Republicans count on those who have difficulty controlling their emotions and political violence is excepted by their supporters. The current dog whistle, preying on the vulnerable with their description of the planned peaceful No Kings Rally on October 18, 2025. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is leading the polarizing rhetoric aimed at a specific audience for a specific outcome.

Speaker Mike Johnson called it a “hate-America rally” that will ​​draw “the pro-Hamas wing” of the Democratic Party and “the antifa people.” House Republican Whip Tom Emmer claimed that “you’ll see the hate for America all over this thing when they show up” for the rally. Sen. Roger Marshall claimed protesters were being paid and suggested the National Guard might need to show up.

The "No Kings" march is a nationwide protest movement, organized by a coalition of progressive groups, to oppose what they describe as the authoritarian actions of President Donald Trump and his administration. The name "No Kings" is intended to convey the idea that the United States is a democracy and that the president is not above the law.

Yes. You can be assured Republicans, whenever they speak, are baiting the VULNERABLE. And I am saddened their bait is often shielded behind religion and patriotism. Psalms 10-2 and 9-10, "In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak, who are caught in the schemes he devises...He lies in wait like a lion in cover; he lies in wait to catch the helpless; he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net. His victims are crushed; they collapse; they fall under his strength".  Psalm 12 points to three brands of deception, all of which Satan uses to keep people from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ. The three varieties of deception are: Vanity, flattery, and blasphemy. The light of the Gospel is salvation through Christ and transformation of the heart. The heart should ALWAYS demonstrate love for one another. 

Christian Republicans who have taken OWNERSHIP and DISTRIBUTION of God, have RIGTEOUS ANGER in their eyes and are not going to take it anymore. Through this righteousness, everyone is getting crushed. They seem to forget, "loving those who love you is easy" is found in Luke 6:32 and Matthew 5:46. These verses, spoken by Jesus, point out that even sinners love those who love them back, suggesting that this is a basic human behavior and not something that warrants special reward. The verses then challenge believers to do more by loving their enemies and doing good to those who hate them, as explained in Luke 6:35.

Women for the win with WISDOM

If you haven't heard you will hear WOMEN WERE PIVOTAL IN DEMOCRATIC WINS NOVEMBER 4, 2025. It comes as no shock to me. Women have always been front and center in the shaping of America in religion and politics. It did not go without notice that WHITE women threw their vote to Trump in 2024 to the disappointment of women in general, especially Black women.

I saw it coming and watched it happen. As election day grew closer, the more religion and biblical Scripture began to be used against women LEADING a country and in essence MEN. Anti-woman rhetoric was done with Hillary Clinton during her bid for the presidency and to Kamala Harris. Women did not VOTE for qualified women for president.

Now as hunger is gripping households with young children due to government shutdown and the stoppage of SNAP benefits and ICE snatching young and old alike off the streets, women's hearts are being tugged at. Is it too little too late? Women turned out on election day electing the first woman governer of Virginia, Abigail Spanberger and a woman governer of New Jersey, Mikie Sherrill. The fear of women LEADING seems not to be an issue during suffering.

For now, women voters care more about the ISSUES facing their ability to have comfortable daily lives which Trump has made nearly impossible for Americans since taking office. Will women continue to vote for a better life for Americans or will they return to ONLY a man can govern America. America NEEDS a WISE president to dig us out of this Trump mess. Has America forgotten the IMPORTANCE of women and wisdom?

Have you noticed WISDOM is called a 'she', JUSTICE is called a lady, and LIBERTY is also a lady. Have you ever wondered why their should be a separation of Church and state? I have written over and over again that the Christian Bible only applies to those who have CHOSEN to be Christians. The Bible is not instructions for running the government. When Christians try to impose Christianity on the masses, there is always a danger and Donald Trump is the manifestation of THAT danger. Trump favors the uneducated and the Democrats need the WISE who just may be the woman voter and elected official.

There are quiet whispers referring to Scriptures in the Bible that a man is to be head of the Christian household, to lead women. They are right. The Bible does say a man is the head of HIS HOUSEHOLD, not head over EVERY woman he encounters. Ephesians 5:23 states that "For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior." This passage of Scripture has always been pulled out and dusted off whenever there is an argument, women are not supposed to lead men. Those who do not study their Bible often mislead others WITH false interpretation of Scriptures. "Study to rightly divide the word of truth" is a phrase from the Bible, 2 Timothy 2:15.

Have you been struggling to make sense of the sometimes-senseless world we live in? Where truth is whatever, an individual decides to call truth. Are you losing faith in family, friends, employer, and government to do what is right and decent by you and others? Are you feeling all of the options for safety and security, once the standards in life, have been trampled upon by those in power or with money? Where does a person go for comfort when life has become a struggle to navigate? Being WISE can be your answer. You will be surprised to know what wisdom really means and how so few possess it.

From a very young age to the present, there is a verse in the Bible I have always prayed, which centers around WISDOM. Proverbs 3:16-18 "Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her; those who hold her fast will be blessed."

The reason I pray for WISDOM is because of what this passage says in the Bible also: James 1:5-8 "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind."

This prayer is such a part of my life that I have the words tattooed on my palms. My right palm has long life in it and my left palm has riches and honor in it. The back of my right hand has Proverbs 3:16 on it. If you have ever gotten your palms tattooed, you know it has tons of nerves and is a painful tattoo to get there. But, the verse is such a part of me, until I braved the pain. Because the hands are used so much and washed often, I will need to have frequent touch ups of this tattoo. 

Wisdom is the ability to use information, truths, and/or facts you know to MAKE wise choices and decisions. To know WHEN to make those choices and decisions. Wisdom takes courage and can even be an isolating character trait. But for those who use wisdom they will, in the long run, be blessed and have peace. Wisdom also lets the person who holds to her that peace comes from within.

As a young girl I noticed wisdom was refered to as a SHE. This really fascinated me. Why is wisdom referred to as a "she?" I invite you now on an exercise of the mind. To go where many church leaders have not taken you.

Wisdom is an important concept in the Old Testament Hebrew Scriptures. Wisdom is also described as more than a good quality. She is a personified heavenly female power. Most of the Wisdom books that portray her as a personified deity are only present in the canon of the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox church. For Protestants they are part of the Apocrypha. These books are the Wisdom of Solomon, Ben Sirach and, to a lesser extent, Baruch, which were all written before the birth of Jesus. 

In Proverbs 8, Wisdom describes her role in the creation of the world. At one point, in verses 22-25 (all quotes from RSV), she says,“The LORD created me at the beginning of his work, the first of his acts of old. Ages ago I was set up, at the first, before the beginning of the earth. When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no springs abounding with water.” If Wisdom is “created” or “acquired” by Yahweh “in the beginning” this might indicate her secondary rank.She tells us she was “created” “before the beginning of the earth” and “brought forth.” The word translated as “created” also means “acquire.” For example, it is used when Boaz made Ruth his wife (Ruth 10:5, 10) which gives it another profound meaning here.

A couple verses later in 29-30 she continues, “… when he assigned to the sea its limit, so that the waters might not transgress his command when he marked out the foundations of the earth, then I was beside him, like a master workman; and I was daily his delight, rejoicing before him always, rejoicing in his inhabited world and delighting in the sons of men.” Lady Wisdom was “beside” Yahweh,” and rejoicing “before him.”

In the last section of chapter 8, verses 32-36, Wisdom says about herself, "And now, my sons, listen to me: happy are those who keep my ways. Hear instruction and be wise, and do not neglect it. Happy is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my gates, waiting beside my doors. For he who finds me finds life and obtains favor from the LORD; but he who misses me injures himself; all who hate me love death.”

Genesis 1:26-27 also confirms that at the creation of Mankind Yahweh speaks to another divine being. Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” (Many believe God was speaking to Jesus in this verse, but the earlier paragraph indicates wisdom was present at creation). So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. If it is considered heretical for Wisdom to be a divine being, we should remember that angels and cherubim are present in the Bible as heavenly entities. It does not mean they are minor gods contesting monotheism. Lady Wisdom – A divine feminine entity ignored in Christianity | Marianne Widmalm | The Blogs (timesofisrael.com)

If you have noticed, a large amount of my writing centers around the role of women in Christianity. My book, When Will Eve Be Forgiven?, looks at some teachings about women which I believe are due further research (Bible study). I am not introducing a new concept of the role of women in the Bible, but, looking at the interpretation of Scripture by many who may not have looked at the verses in its original language.

There is never a need to argue or fight about the Bible and its content. Acting out of love goes against the philosophy and teaching of the Bible. I only encourage studying the Bible for yourself. Some people feel if they question any understanding of the Bible, they are being sinful. That is far from true and if anyone makes you believe that or feel that way, they are being abusive towards you. Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman who needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth, 2 Timothy 2:15.

To say Wisdom is a goddess is not a step I'm willing to take. She is just another one of God's creations given an assignment. The Bible speaks about other gods and those gods have power also. The church nails home that we are not to worship other gods and I am all for that. But there was also something I noticed as a young girl reading the Bible. God said not to have any other god BEFORE him. "Thou shall not have no other gods before me. Other gods are acknowledged as having powers also. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers unpon the children unto the THIRD and FOURTH generation of them that hate me," Exodus 20:3-5.

Personally, I have understood the word "before" here as referring to rank – that is, you may not consider any other god to be more valuable/worthy than the one true God. The preposition "before" here (עַל־ al: Strong's #5921) is a simple preposition, and simply means upon, over, above, on (e.g. Genesis 1:2; Leviticus 9:7; 18:30) toward, about (Exodus 18:13), against (Exodus 17:3) beside(s) (Genesis 15:27), before (the passage in quesiton); on account of, because of, for this reason (Genesis 2:24; Exodus 15:23; 18:9), among other synonymic meanings, being used to specify position of something, often in relation to something else (originating from a verb עָלָה alah describing movement). So no, it cannot be taken to denote a 'higer rank', and is never used to that effect in the rest of the Hebrew Bible.

Other scholars believe "before" me means in his sight, where he can see. Since God sees everything, it is not possible to have any other god secretly. 

In times when things are not going the way they should and chaos reigns, there has to be something to hold onto. Hold onto wisdom. Know truths and facts and use them to guide you to make right choices. It is so easy to say the good guy never wins and join in on doing wrong or just giving up. But wisdom offers you hope and for peace. At the end of the day, no matter what others are doing, you are left with you. Your decisions and choices are what YOU have to live with, and those choices affect others. There is power in WISDOM.

How ca you tell if a person is wise? Proverbs 9:8, But correct a wise man, and he will love you. ISV. Don't rebuke a mocker or he will hate you. Rebuke a wise person, and he will love you. There are two choices for president. One of which has not been convicted of crimes, yet there are thousands of people choosing to support a criminal. All efforts to point out the flaws of that candidate falls on closed eyes and ears. One candidate for president offers hope and peace in the same way wisdom does. Who will the wise choose?

I hope you found this as fascinating as I did when I was a child. I hope it sparks the studier in you to take a closer look at some of your favorite and faith held Bible verses. In this same vein of why so many things are refered to as a woman, I will be looking at why justice is a she.
