The Weekend Has Arrived❗️

 

Everything has been so exceedingly stressful lately and we are all feeling exhausted by it❗️

I highly recommend you get into your favorite cozy sweater and spend the weekend  relaxing with family and friends while doing something creative that you enjoy. 

Remember to get outside, spend a big chunk of time offline, don't neglect your beauty sleep, and don’t be afraid to embrace a wee 🤏 bit of silliness.

And getting a thorough SCRUB may make you sore but it will get you clean again.

The Truth with Love,

Stay alert, Folks.

Sexually Deviant Behavior (Simplified)

 

Because this is one of my areas of expertise (I wish it wasn't), I often get asked questions along this line. So let's tackle it head on because as I always say, "Defining the problem is the first step to finding the solution", and with people's moral values being all over the place and everyone doing only "what is right in their own eyes" (Judges 17:6) we need to quickly and clearly get to the heart of the matter.

I will NOT be looking to modern psychology for this answer because, quite frankly, they STILL don't know and in their ignorance and continuing debate over simply defining deviant sexual behavior  they have become a major part of causing it to get worse. 

For example.  Homosexuality was originally defined as "deviant behavior" or a "perversion", then as a "mental illness", and now as just an "alternate lifestyle". 

All the other letters of the LGBTQ+ have traveled this path too and now we are seeing Pedophilia travel this same well worn path and is currently emerging as mainstream and acceptable.

Plus, ☝️try and get a modern psychologist to even define "What is a man?" or "What is a woman?" and after stumbling through some GobbledeeGook, they will leave the room in a huff. (As Matt Walsh demonstrated to us).

So where do we get our answer❓️ 🤔

We are going straight to the words of the God who designed and made us.

"So God created mankind in his own image,

    in the image of God he created them;

    male and female he created them."

Genesis 1:27

✝️

"The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”

Genesis 2:18

✝️

"Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.

The man said,

“This is now bone of my bones

    and flesh of my flesh;

she shall be called ‘woman,’

    for she was taken out of man.”

That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh."

Genesis 2:22-24

There it is! God's way. The RIGHT way of doing it! 

Simple. 💁‍♀️Right? 🤨

Anything NOT done the right way is a DEVIATION from it.

A PERVERSION of the perfect way it was set up to be.

So, it isn't just things like Homosexuality or being a Pedophile but it also includes ADULTERY and FORNICATION.

So, all you "consenting adults" considering yourselves morally superior to the people in the LGBTQ community better think again❗️because if you have not followed God's mandate of "One man married to the same woman for an entire lifetime" you have perverted God's perfect way and participated in SEXUALLY DEVIANT BEHAVIOR.

What you do about your perverted ways is between You and God and I will leave it to you to take it up with Him directly from this point.

It is only my responsibility to bring you...

The Truth with Love,

 Always Laura-Lee 

"Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral."

Hebrews 13:4

PS.

While the previously smug older folks are pondering (and sweating) over what I just said, let me give some hope to you younger people who come to me doubting that Love for a Lifetime is even possible.

Let me assure you that it is! 😃

It has been my privilege to see many marriages at the end of people's lives who were still married to the same person as one of them bid farewell to the other. And the love they shared on that day went  far beyond the love they shared for each on their wedding day.

I have been related to many and known many.

Love for a Lifetime and finding the person God has designed to be YOUR other half that completes you is completely in your grasp. So don't give up hope in finding them.

But we'll talk more about that on another day.

Love for a Lifetime❓️

Completely "DO-ABLE"❗️

Move along! 🫱

 Nothing to see here.

NOTE.

As I previously stated Pedophilia is moving into mainstream within the laws in various countries and ALL over the internet as the Pedophiles seek to lure children in.

BEWARE of any site, game or app that would appeal to children.

You are looking for this version of the LGBTQ rainbow and the word "MAP" hidden somewhere.

MAP = "Minor Attracted Person"

Remembering Summer Time

 

I woke up with a cold  nose and when I came online this Monday morning my Calendar reminded me of all I have to do this week and people's posts were reminding me Christmas was coming.

Now, as a Christian, I love to think about anything that has to do with Jesus but ...🥴 Christmas right now?!

Besides, I'm not quite ready to forget about Summer, literally or metaphorically.

So I'm calling a Coffee, Tea (or Smoko) break so you can stop and  remember...

carefree times

a great song

all the little people I stepped on to get to my exulted and glorious position of international fame and power 

ur ... , ah ... 🤔 

that we never accomplish anything completely on our own. At the very least, we owe gratitude to those who broke the path before us.

DON'T ever forget  Who you are and Where you come from. 

It matters❗️

My Christmas Memories at our Bergen, Alberta Farm 1973

My main toy Christmas present in 1973 was a Mattel Silly Talk Doll. I also got a new pair of long-johns (with the legs 2 different lengths), Super-Slider Snow Skates and in my Stocking was walnuts still in their shells and a bag of Ribbon Candy, AND the Peanut Brittle Mom had SECRETLY made the night before.❗️ 

At the end of Christmas Day, after we had our Turkey Dinner at 5:00 pm and the Wish Bone from the bird had been put on the stove to dry out (so it could be pulled on New Years), we turned on our Black and White TV and tuned into the local CTV affiliate (which was just starting it's Broadcasting "Day" with the Evening News. 

 We took some time adjusting the Rabbit Ears for the best reception, then 

at 7:00 PM "The 10 Commandments" came on and we watched Charlton Heston part the Red Sea and by the time Yul Brenner's chariots were drowned by the hand of Almighty God, my family was  halfway through our yearly box of Japanese Oranges. 🫠

 I felt SO spoiled and rich that year. 

The AI, which helped me track down this Silly toy, was amazed I remembered EXACTLY all the Silly things she said AND that I had recognized her voice was "The  lady from 'Laugh in'" [Jo-Ann Woorly] when that fact had never been publicly revealed and I was only 7 years old that year.

That was a nice Christmas and the final one  we spent with Dad. 

Many of my childhood memories are NOT nice. In fact, many are excessively horrible and I would love to wipe them from my mind, but for the most part, I consider my vivid and precise memory a unique gift from God.

But growing up I had  NO idea someday I would be using it to hunt killers, Pedophiles and expose and destroy Cults.

🤨

Examine and explore YOUR gifts. What tasks and jobs do you think has God designed you to do? Why don't you ask Jesus to tell you? He may amaze you with His answer. It may be something from Left Field you never imagined yourself doing but on deeper thought you see it might be what you're designed to do❓️ 🤔

The Truth with Love,

 Always Laura-Lee 

I can't imagine why anybody would look at this Silly toy and think of me. 🤷‍♀️

What a trip! 😄 I haven't heard this toy "talk" for 51 years!

Super Slider Snow Skates. The reason half the kids in Canada showed up at the ER that year.

The BEST part about that Christmas was that I had grown my two front teeth back by then and I  wasn't constantly being asked to sing that stupid song! 😖

My First Bible Verse

 

On Christmas Day in 1975, when I was only nine years old (Oops❗️ 🫢 Accidentally outed my age on the internet again), I received my first Bible. It was a KJV (King James Version) from Mom and inside the front cover the publisher had put the first Bible verse I would memorize 

"...perfect love casteth out fear..."

1 John 4:18

This was the perfect verse for me because I was absolutely riddled with fear as I was  starting my life with several Monkeys on my Back including my main one called,  "Anthropophobia"

Definition: It is an intense dread of human beings, regardless of the setting, which can cause anxiety around strangers, crowds, or even close family and friends.

I also had "Agoraphobia".

Definition: an anxiety disorder that causes an intense fear of being in public places or situations where escape might be hard or help might not be available.

Situations that often cause fear include: Using public transit like buses, trains, or planes.

Being in enclosed places like stores or elevators.

 Standing in line or being in a crowd.

Being outside or home alone.

I also have "Anticipatory Anxiety Disorder".

Definition: persistent fear and dread of experiencing another panic attack,

(and I haven't even mentioned my OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) but that's for another day.)

This revelation probably comes as a huge surprise to those who know me because I have a huge capacity to focus my thoughts to temporarily subdue my fears, but there were times (perhaps when I was tired) when the fear would consume me and I would pass out in public from the intensity of it. Like when riding home on a crowded, standing room only bus at the end of the day. Riding on the Skytrain in Vancouver was torture because it was always crowded and there was no way to get off it in-between stations.

But whatever big, fancy medical terms you give these feelings it all comes down to FEAR❗️

So my first Bible verse was perfect for me. Even though I didn’t know where to find this "perfect love" it talked about, it gave me hope to know it existed and some day it would cast off the shackles of my Fears and set me free.

I found this perfect, unconditional, sacrificial love in 1978, one month before my 12th birthday, when I was introduced to Jesus and welcomed Him to take over my pathetic life and make Himself at home in me, where I crossed from darkness into the light and from death to life. (Oops❗️🫢 Accidentally outed my Born Again age on the internet again).

And from that moment on Jesus healed me of all my fearful disorders and phobias and I walked into newness of life humming "Blessed Assurance" and constantly followed by several pink kittens.

Uh. Actually, no. It didn't work out that way. Much to my chagrin I discovered that all my fears were very much still there. But when I asked Jesus why didn't He "casteth out" my fears when He moved into my life He responded this way, (which is part of Jesus's prayer for us at the Last Supper).

 "I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth."

John 17:15-17

Reality, our sicknesses and human weakness do not simply stop when we choose to follow Jesus. In fact, we GAIN many hardships we didn't  have before when we become Christians. Followers of Jesus quickly learn we are required to pick up some form of a daily cross, God has designed specifically for us, as we trudge along after Jesus, who carries the FULL weight of our sins on His cross. 

What He actually promises is to make His Home in us and never leave us. THIS promise He always fulfills. He has to me no matter what dark path I have had to go through and there have been many in my lifetime.

"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me."

Psalm 23:4

The quest for "perfect love" I started 51 years ago at just nine years old (Oops❗️🫢 Accidentally outed my age on the internet again) is something we ALL long to find. Whether it's to cast out Fear, Loneliness, Pain, Desperation or All of the Above. I am here to encourage you that it does exist and is available to you when you surrender your Self, your ENTIRE Self , to Jesus. When it will be your moment to step from the darkness into the light and death into life.

"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Romans 8:38-39

Here's your treat for scrolling all the way to the bottom.

In 2010 I was coming back with a batch of  groceries I had just got for Mom because she had become too sick to do her own shopping and it had been a rough time for me because the store was so crowded and I was stuck in the lineup with my cart a long time. I paused on the street outside her apartment to get myself under control so that her discerning eyes wouldn't pick up any problems with me that would cause her extra concern. 

"Lord, now I have to face the store twice as often. For me and for Mom. I know you've heard this prayer a Million times from me but I'm going to ask again. 'Help me cope, Jesus. Please help me cope.' Amen"

🙂‍↕️

Jesus's response? 

 "It is Finished!"

(John 19:30)

Right there, on 97th  street, here in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, in front of the "Petals for Less" florist shop, Jesus cast out ALL my Fears and Phobias in one fell swoop. 🥹

... and I haven't shut up since. 😅🤣😂 Making up for lost time I guess. 😉

Can I get a Praise the Lord for that one❓️❗️🤗

🤫🤔 I wonder how, where and when YOUR deliverance will come?

(Yeah. I know it's corny. So what are you gonna do 'bout it? This is MY blog! 🤨)

Do I need to suggest, yet again; that you start reading the Bible?

I Ain't Gonna Play Ken City

"APARTHEID" is an Afrikaans word that means "separateness" or "apartness.

Systemic Rules:  Laws that classify people by race (White, Black, Coloured, and Asian) and strictly dictate where people can live and work.

International Law: Apartheid is defined as a crime against humanity.

🔑🗝👜

What I learned from Reverend Jerry Falwell and the Moral Majority in the 1980s was in order to stop the bad guys you need to stand united, focus attention on the problem and “hit them in the wallet”.

💁‍♀️

In 1985 Apartheid was a scourge in South Africa. There was a huge Whites Only resort there called SUN CITY that hired big name (white) musical performers to entertain their guests. As a response the biggest names in pop music and rap united for a protest song. They recorded their song, “Sun City”, made their video and promised, “You can't buy me, I don't care what you pay. Don't ask me, Sun City, cuz I ain't gonna play!”

These Artists also hoped by focusing on this, the Musical Artists who did cave into the money would feel shame and also agree not to play Sun City and customers would stop going there too.

Currently Answers in Genesis (under the leadership of Ken Ham) uses his theme parks The Ark Encounter, Creation Museum and VR Truth Traveler Experience as fronts for his Cult.

Answers in Genesis (AiG)  uses HUNDREDS of Christians who are poor, elderly and people of color to do the most menial tasks at his Theme Parks for NO WAGES! He crams them into crowded, stark dorm rooms so they can serve by working in the Warehouse, Kitchens, cleaning the bathrooms and cleaning up after the animals in the various exhibits.

Young Earth Creationists (YEC) have been shaking their heads and muttering against Ken Ham, his Totalitarian ways and ridiculous “scientific” conclusions and twisted Bible doctrine for years but have never united against him because, quite frankly, Answers in Genesis is such a massive network involving Hundreds of Millions of dollars, political links (right up to the Whitehouse), Church and Christian University Affiliations (ie. Cedarville University, Ohio - Bob Jones University) and control of courts and law enforcement that they are too afraid to speak up in any loud way.

(sigh. 😞)

So, yet again, while the Christian men shirk their responsibilities and cower in corners it's up to me to grow a pair.

D O N E❗️

I'm boycotting all Answers in Genesis products, Unfollowing and Unsubscribing from them across all Social Media and never going to the Ark Encounter or Creation Museum. 

I am also boycotting all the people tied to Answers in Genesis particularly in local businesses in the Cincinnati (Ohio) and North Kentucky area as well as in other Ministries.

Maybe if people see this little old lady do what's right in bringing down this evil cult they will ask Jesus to give them the strength to do it too.

Well, no matter what others do,

 

“It's time to accept our responsibility, 

Freedom is a privilege nobody rides for free

Look around the world, baby, it cannot be denied

Some-somebody tell me why are we always on the wrong side?”

Sorry Ken, Find somebody else to play with! 😡
