Intentional Inspirations Newsletter - 6/17/22
“…Rejoice and be glad all our days.” Wow. This verse really spoke to me today as I sat down to write out this newsletter. Do I rejoice and am I glad every day? If not, why? Then I go back to the beginning of that verse to find the answer. It says to satisfy ourselves in the morning with the steadfast love of God.
Do I start my days being satisfied with God’s love?
Do I spend time each morning in the Bible, God’s love letter to me?
If I am not starting my day with the Lord, then it is no wonder that I have days where I am not very joyful or glad — especially with all the crazy going on in our world! Oh but God. He is so patient with me, and ever so faithful! I can choose each day to come before Him, to spend time with Him in the Bible and in prayer, and allow Him to satisfy me, to fill me with joy and gladness. I am finding that as our world seems to be turning more and more away from God and the Truth in the Bible, it is becoming much more necessary to start my day with God. But isn’t that how it goes? God uses the hard times, the stressful times, the seasons where our lives are not going as planned, to get a hold of us and get our focus on Him where it should be.
I hope this encourages you! Start your day with Jesus, in His Word, the Bible, and talking to Him in prayer. This world needs a bit more joy and gladness!
Before I wind this down and let you browse through the links below, I want to touch on a subject that is heavy on my heart. Please understand that I am not telling you what to do or condemning you for what you choose to do. I only want to inform you so that you can make a well informed decision.
You probably guessed, but I am referring to the COVID vaccines, that are now close to being given the Emergency Use Authorization for children as young as 6 months.
The main stream media is not covering all the injuries and deaths that are occurring as a result of these vaccines. But it is real, and it is happening. I personally know (in real life) one person who died of brain bleeds after getting the shot, one who got blood clots that affected their vision, one who ended up in the ER after the shot with afib, an elementary student who suffered a stroke, and the list goes on. So many are having neurological problems, nerve pain, paralysis, seizures, tremors, heart problems, and more. And I’m sure you all have heard about how young athletes all over the world are collapsing while playing their sport. What is so frustrating is that these people are for the most part being ignored and are having a hard time finding doctors that can help them.
So with all these injuries and deaths going on, it makes no sense why they are pushing these vaccines on our youngest. If you take the time to look into the trials that were done for the children, you will be horrified at what you see.
PLEASE, before you decide to take your children to get this vaccine, spend some time looking through the following links. Make sure you are well aware of the risks involved. These COVID vaccines are not like other childhood vaccines and they are not “approved” but are only being given Emergency Use Authorization. The FDA has already recommended these shots for the young children, now the CDC is meeting today and tomorrow. The CDC will vote tomorrow on whether to recommend them as well. If the CDC gives final approval, then many pediatricians and pharmacies will have it available next week. So please do your homework!
Now on to the links for this week. Hopefully you will find something here that brightens your day!
