  You may feel alone, but Jesus won't abandon you. Put your phone down. Take a moment to pray and reconnect with Jesus. Jesus isn't the only one you can pray to. The Blessed Virgin Mary, the saints, and others. The Virgin Mary will lead you to Jesus. P ersonally, the Blessed Virgin Mary is my favorite. She is the mother of Jesus and the queen of heaven. She offers graces to those who ask for them. She will crush the head of the serpent and be a significant part of it at the end of time. T he Women at the well encountered him by accident. M ary Magdalene was cleaned by Jesus and was later present during the crucifixion and restriction of Jesus. A woman like Mary Magdalene was significant enough to be the first to see Jesus after his resurrection—a woman, not a man. The importance of that is eye-opening.

 The 2024 presidential debate sure showcased the true colors of both candidates.  Trump seemed to win the debate and Biden seemed confused the majority of the time. As a result the people of the United States seem to side with Trump. Unless your part of the 33% that fell head over heals for Biden.  On the morning of the 28th the democratic party was in tears and searching for their new leader. Biden had fallen and the party looked elsewhere for their new leader. Multiple names have been thrown around and Kamala Harris has been pushed towards the bottom of that list. However Biden says he will stay in the race. As for the future of the democratic party it looks Rocky and not pointed north.  The next few months will showcase what happens. Especially,  to see if Biden lives until November.   The Biden empire has fallen. Let's clean up the mess and continue on .

If you’re not communicating you’re not trying. Go on dates. Date your spouse like your teens again. Be spontaneous! See a marriage counselor. I know it’s not fun but marriage isn’t always fun, it’s hard work. Put more work into your marriage than the day before. Be yourself. Learn to trust your spouse again. Be willing to be vulnerable. No one wants to talk to someone with walls up. Be open about money. Secrets about money won’t help the situation Look for the small things. And don’t expect anything in return Stop being selfish

  Christmas is a wonderful time of the year. Here are five tips to help transition you into a lovely time with your friends and family. Avoid topics that can cause cold hard stares and dirty looks. No one cares about the “Grass Roots Project” that you have been working on for the past 8 and half years. Your political movement is the same as last year's. Ask open-ended questions. What are your plans for the New Year? What have the kids been up to in sports? If you want to avoid talking to your relative ask closed questions. Or you can sit in dead silence your choice. Don't dress to impress. Your relatives won't remember the name brands you wore and neither will you. Wear something comfortable, you are there to enjoy yourself not walk the catwalk. Similar to rule two only speak when spoken to. Unless it is dead silence and there needs to be a conversation. Don't take over the conversation, let others speak. You don't want to hear yourself speak more than others. Bring...

  first, let me begin by standing up and saying … Life begins at conception. You may say that the baby is not alive in the womb and that it is just a clump of cells or that it doesn't have any rights… However, aren't all humans just made of a bunch of cells? Why can't a breathing human have rights? Boys and girls with bodies and souls. Where is the cut-off? Okay, now that we have that out of the way I can talk about the concept of a baby being alive in the womb. The baby is alive due to the evidence that the baby is breathing in amniotic fluid into their lungs. Also having a heartbeat. When the baby is born and goes through the birth canal the amniotic fluid is squeezed out of the lungs and the lungs prepare for the fresh air the baby will soon breathe. When the baby first cries the air fills their lungs resulting in the subtraction of the amniotic fluid. In conclusion, the baby has been living since it arrived and was conceived in the womb. Where do you draw the line? If h...
