Going To Extremes To Fly The American Flag

It’s so sad we have to go to such extremes to
fly the American flag in America.

Hats off to this guy!

“And this shall be my covenant with you, ye shall have it for the land of your inheritance, and for the inheritance of your children forever, while the earth shall stand, and ye shall possess it again in eternity, no more to pass away.”  D&C 38:20

We are about to lose our country!

The Constitution on which our freedoms rest is going down the tubes.

Progressives have no regard for the Constitution and consider it irrelevant, and one of them is sitting in the White House.

The economy of the greatest nation in the world is in critical trouble with no hope of our surviving without an immediate turnaround.

Our country is being invaded by illegals who swell the already bloated dependent class supported by even the smallest taxpayer.  And they will be loading up the ballot boxes for those who so willingly grant outrageous entitlements.

Our citizens are sitting ducks for the overthrow of our beloved Land of the Free because they are not educated about our roots; they know nothing about the tenets of freedom, the struggle to get it, the Constitution and the Founding Fathers; they can’t relate to the millions who fight and die every day for the freedoms we take for granted.

“O Israel, return unto the Lord thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.”  Hosea 14:1

“I’m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I’m free.
And I wont forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.”

• You can get arrested for expired tags on your car but not for being in the country illegally.

• Your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more of our money.

• The Supreme Court of the United States can rule that lower courts cannot display the 10 Commandments in their courtroom, while sitting in front of a display of the 10 Commandments.

• Children are forcibly removed from parents who appropriately discipline them while children of“underprivileged” drug addicts are left to rot in filth infested cesspools.

• Working class Americans pay for their own health care (and the health care of everyone else) while unmarried women are free to have child after child on the “State’s” dime while never being held responsible for their own choices.

• Hard work and success are rewarded with higher taxes and government intrusion, while slothful, lazy behavior is rewarded with EBT cards, WIC checks, Medicaid and subsidized housing.

• The government’s plan for getting people back to work is to provide 99 weeks of unemployment checks (to not work).

• Politicians think that stripping away the amendments to the constitution is really protecting the rights of the people.

• The rights of the Government come before the rights of the individual.

• Parents believe the State is responsible for providing for their children.

• You pay your mortgage faithfully, denying yourself the newest big screen TV while your neighbor defaults on his mortgage (while buying iphones, TV’s and new cars) and the government forgives his debt and reduces his mortgage (with your tax dollars).

• Being stripped of the ability to defend yourself makes you “safe”.

• You have to have your parents signature to go on a school field trip but not to get an abortion.

• An 80 year old woman can be stripped searched by the TSA but a Muslim woman in aburqa is only subject to having her neck and head searched.

  
  

  SO LET’S GET “NOIZ” (NOISY) AND TURN THIS COUNTRY AROUND!

  WHEN WE DO, “NOIZ” WILL ALSO TURN AROUND AND BECOME 

  ZION!

  THE HAPPIEST PEOPLE THAT EVER LIVED!

You Think It’s Hot?

As we celebrate our freedoms and liberties that we so much enjoy today, lets be sure to give thanks to those who protect us and put their lives on the line; especially those who have given them up so that our nation may continue to be able a sweet land land of liberty.

It you think it’s hot, think about what our military have to go through.  Are you willing to take the heat and the bullet?  Freedom is never free.  Since the beginning of time, the opposite forces of liberty try to take them away from us.  It is something worth fighting for.

To all of our troops and those who serve this blessed country of ours, we salute you and pledge our allegiance to this nation for which we stand!

I have been home alone for a few days as my wife is gone visiting her sisters with her Mom in California.  I have been catching up on emails, reading, writing, watching some videos, and especially pondering about this great nation of ours and the Land of the Free.  That word “Free” reminded me of how blessed we are to have the Freedoms that we do in this country.

At such a time as this when our freedoms and God given Constitutional rights are being challenged and threatened, I decided to say something about them  on my web site and to Take a Stand, to Speak Out, and ‘Get NoiZ’, to share my heart and feelings.  And, I did!

As I took a break and made myself a sandwich, I found myself falling asleep on the couch after having watched the news.  In my dreams I felt comfortable and thankful for life and the many blessings that I have.  In my mind I was reviewing how thankful I was to have been born of  ’goodly parents’ with a wonderful family and how my brother Donny had rung the doorbell 30 times and just happened to be in the area so he unexpectedly stopped by just to visit with me; I thought of my perfect wife who calls me quite often on the phone while she is away just to make sure I am ok and doing well; my eight sons who keep inviting me to dinner and calling and stopping by  to check up on me while I am alone; my granddaughters who needed someone to watch them as their parents needed an hour to take care of some business matters which gave me a chance to babysit them.  I did!  I realized how thankful I was for  my beliefs and testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ as I had been reading and pondered the scriptures and the words of early day Prophets of God who had spoken out about our day and prophesied about those freedoms that we enjoy and just how and why they were heaven sent and would be challenged.

Those thoughts in my dream as I remember, reminded me of the War in Heaven and how we as spirit children of God fought the adversary over our freedoms with the rights to  choose ‘The Way’ we wished to follow, which we did; that we all chose to follow Jesus and His Plan of Life.  I had earlier watched the news on television with eulogies for the recent shootings that killed innocent people and hurt families; the struggles that we are having as a people and a nation with heavy debt, conspiring men with lust, greed and power seeking to destroy and take away our freedoms and those liberties for which we stand, and those few heroes who take a stand and dare to speak out and proclaim their faith in society and their hope for the future of our country.  So, I joined them!  I spoke out on my website for Freedom!

It was then as I had just woken up from my short moment of sleep, that I knelt down by the couch, all alone in my house, and thanked my Heavenly Father for life and for the opportunity I have to share openly on the internet those things that I feel can help with “Strengthening Families”.

I was humbled and wanted to  let “Father” know that I hoped He approved of my actions as I felt strongly about what I had said on thefamily.com site with firm conviction and faith in the future of our country ; while remembering what a great and positive reputation my family and Church has and that I must be careful to never mar or hurt those whom I honor with anything that I post or say!  THAT IS WHEN I SAID IN MY PRAYER,  ”HELP ME FATHER TO REMEMBER WHO I AM!”

The Spirit within me almost leaped inside as I realized what I had just said!   YES!  It is so True!  I MUST REMEMBER WHO I AM!  MAYBE THAT’S WHY I SAID WHAT I DID!  I then I repeated it with firmness just like George Washington must have said as he was on bended knee besides his horse praying to “Father” for inspiration as he lead this country; …. and so I said it again … with even more boldness,  ”HELP ME FATHER TO REMEMBER WHO I AM!”

I had the strongest feelings in my heart to REMEMBER THAT I AM A CHILD OF GOD.  …that I was sent here to live during these last days at this very special time on earth; even a Great and Dreadful Day;  that I was greatly blessed to have been born of goodly parents with wonderful brothers and a sister; to have my own eternal wife and family of eight sons who love me  with almost twenty grandchildren for whom to care; to have traveled this great world and to have made millions of friends with my music and a reputation by standing for truth and righteousness; to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with the fullness of the Gospel in these latter days when Jesus Christ will once again return to the earth and when ‘every knee shall bend and every tongue confess that He, Jesus, is the Christ’;  only then will Satan be bound while we live in peace with Jesus to rule with us on earth for a thousand years!

I know even more strongly that I must speak out and stand up for the TRUTH!  Because I KNOW that Jesus Is The Way and His Way Is THE TRUTH!  That’s why I am writing this!  I encourage all to do the same!

May we all remember who we are and be prepared and humble with broken hearts and contrite spirits as we live righteously, endure, and stand in holy  places with clean hands and pure hearts for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be coming soon to perform His Mighty Miracles that our prophets since the beginning of time foretold would come to pass!

WE AR SO BLESSED!

“We urge members of the Church and all Americans to begin now to reflect more intently on the meaning and importance of the Constitution, and of adherence to its principles. . . .

“In these challenging days, when there are so many influences which would divert us, there is a need to rededicate ourselves to the lofty principles and practices of our Founding Fathers.

“Let us not permit these admonitions of our living prophets to fall on deaf ears. Let us, as they direct, learn the meaning and importance of our God-ordained Constitution. Let us rededicate ourselves to the lofty principles and practices of those wise men whom God raised up to give us our priceless freedom. Our liberties, our salvation, our well-being as a church and as anation depend upon it.”

Next to life, we express gratitude for the gift of free agency. When thou didst create man, thou placed within him part of thine Omnipotence and bade him choose for himself. Liberty and conscience thus became a sacred part of human nature. Freedom not only to think, but to speak and act, is a God-given privilege. [Dedication of the London Temple by President David O. McKay]

Hear the words of President Wilford Woodruff:

Those men who laid the foundation of this American government and signed the Declaration of Independence were the best spirits the God of Heaven could find on the face of the earth. They were choice spirits . . . inspired of the Lord.

Everyone of those men that signed the Declaration of Independence, with George Washington, . . . called upon me, as an Apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ, in the Temple at St. George two consecutive nights and demanded at my hand that I should go forth and attend to the ordinances of the house of God for them. . . .

Would those spirits have called upon me, as an Elder in Israel, to perform that work if they had not been noble spirits before God? They would not. . . . Said they: “. . . We laid the foundation of the government you now enjoy, and we never apostatized from it, but we remained true to it and were faithful to God.”

America Is A ‘Promised Land’.  (Records of History)

And it came to pass that after we had sailed for the space of many days we did arrive at the promised land; and we went forth upon the land, and did pitch our tents; and we did call it the promised land.  1 Ne. 18: 8, 22-23, 25

IT’S TIME TO “GET NOIZ”…FOR GOOD!

THE TRUTH NEEDS NO AGENDA!

Let's Turn The World Around...Become a Zion People!
