Better Late Than Never

I've had a crazy week, but here I am to analyze the next portion of the first directive. So we're eight days into the attack, and tomorrow comes the attack on Washington so let's keep up the counter offensive. On the last blog I highlighted the first part of the directive from days 1-12. It is as follows:
“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” -John 14:27
Yahweh, bring Your peace-that-remains to our land. Dismiss division and call forth unity in our land around Your truth. We call forward a Third Great Awakening to relationship with You.


The next sections states:
Holy Spirit, come and teach our children, our parents, our people of all ages–native born and immigrants. Unlock minds that have been so filled with darkness and deceit the light cannot come in. Do Your will in Earth as it is in Heaven. Release light to renew, transform and reeducate the minds and hearts of this nation.
So at the start of this section we see that they are asking the Holy Spirit, the third component of the Christian Trinity, to come and teach us something that apparently we are not aware of. The scary thing is that they believe that they can teach our children something that we are unable or do not want to teach them. Imagine, for a moment, a government that adopts one religion against all others, and they keep a watch on us to make sure that we do not teach our children "the wrong things." They basically want us to be lemmings just following someone else's life.


Next, they call everything but their beliefs "darkness and deceit." According to these individuals we are so overcome with this darkness that we cannot see the light of the "real truth." Living the life of a Christian for most of my life I can honestly tell you that Christianity to me is a darkness that is hard to escape from. I have been doing some life work, and I truly believe that the strict Christian life is the cause of my emotional eating and therefore, the cause of my current situation with weight. I was taught from infancy that I was bad and sinful. I lived a life of shame trying to suppress my body's natural functions.


I have only told a handful of people this story, but I feel comfortable sharing it with you because I love and trust you. I was blessed with my menstral cycle when I was ten years old. My mother, who in so many ways was a wonderful woman, did not tell me or warn me about what was coming as a natural, beautiful, and powerful part of being a woman. I have always been a sexual person, and although I did not know what it was at the time I began masturbating at a very young age. Now, of course, I know that this is a natural desire, but as a young girl I felt dirty and sinful. As a result, when my period started I thought that it was a punishment from God for pleasing myself. I can't tell you how long I lived with this until my mom finally realized that my period had started, but I know it was at least a year. Even after this beautiful part of being a woman continued to be a punishment for sin. I truly didn't even know what was happening, but as it would come every month I would feel such deep, dark guilt it's hard to even describe. My reason for revealing this part of myself is to show that because a body's natural functions were not a part of conversation in my strict, conservative, Christian household. To me, this is an example of a darkness that I am working hard to escape from every day. So to accuse us of being under some dark, deceitful "spell" that we need rescued from angers me.


So to close out this section it states: Do Your will in Earth as it is in Heaven. Release light to renew, transform and reeducate the minds and hearts of this nation. 
I do not have issue with "Do Your will in Earth as it is in Heaven" because I translate this to be "As above, So Below." The next part, however, is just another way of saying that we are brainwashed by our dark ways, and we need to be reeducated to the "right" way. Please don't misunderstand me, I believe in God as part of the All, and I believe in asking Spirit for strength, wisdom, guidance, and so forth. However, I have gained freedom from a religion who taught a girl to be so ashamed of her body that God would punish her for fulfilling natural desires. This patriarchal, Christian God I do not want anything to do with. So as they continue attacking our country day to day reciting this "prayer" I, along with thousands, perhaps millions, of others will fight tooth and nail against the possibility of coming under the rule of this religion and their God.
