#JusticeOrElse! is not a march, but a gathering of those who are sober minded and serious about placing a demand on the United States government and putting power behind that demand to force the government to give us what we deserve.
This is not a march, but a gathering of those who understand that freedom has never been obtained without the loss of life and who step forward willing to give whatever sacrifice that the time and the God of this time demands. We are certain that God would not bring us out to slaughter but He does require that we take the ultimate stand in order that He may show his power. We recognize that there comes a time in the life of all suffering people where there must be a willingness to lay down their lives for the cause of freedom and a future.

The Perfect Example of Our Faith in God! (Class project - SCPR-520 Multicultural Media History)
THIS IS A REPOST! I THOUGHT IT WAS
BEAUTIFUL AND WANTED IT TO SHARE!
Barefoot College
In a mother’s womb were two babies. One asked the
other:
“Do you believe in life after delivery?” The other replied, “Why, of course. There has to be something... after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we will be later.”
“Nonsense” said the first. “There is no life after delivery. What kind of life would that be?”
The second said, “I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t understand now.”
The first replied, “That is absurd. Walking is impossible. And eating with our mouths? Ridiculous! The umbilical cord supplies nutrition and everything we need. But the umbilical cord is so short. Life after delivery is to be logically excluded.”
The second insisted, “Well I think there is something and maybe it’s different than it is here. Maybe we won’t need this physical cord anymore.”
The first replied, “Nonsense. And moreover if there is life, then why has no one has ever come back from there? Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery there is nothing but darkness and silence and oblivion. It takes us nowhere.”
“Well, I don’t know,” said the second, “but certainly we will meet Mother and she will take care of us.”
The first replied “Mother? You actually believe in Mother? That’s laughable. If Mother exists then where is She now?”
The second said, “She is all around us. We are surrounded by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that we live. Without Her this world would not and could not exist.”
Said the first: “Well I don’t see Her, so it is only logical that She doesn’t exist.”
To which the second replied, “Sometimes, when you’re in silence and you focus and you really listen, you can perceive Her presence, and you can hear Her loving voice, calling down from above.”

Increasing YOUR Faith! (Class project - SCPR-520 Multicultural Media History)
Three Simple Ways to Increase Your Faith
How do you increase your faith? Three simple ways to help build and increase our reliance on God.
1. Read the Word
Or
at least hear God’s Word. Romans 10:17 says says: So then, faith cometh by
hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Reading or hearing God’s Word is like
planting a garden. If you want to grow or “build” a garden, you must first
plant the seeds, or the actual plant or flower. God’s Word is the seed that
grows the faith. Become familiar with your spirituality and what faith is all
about by meditating on its contents. This will give you the basis for growing
or increasing your faith.
2. Heed the Word
James 1:22-24 offers a
second way to increase your faith: But be doers of the word, and not hearers
only, deceiving yourselves. Correct application must always be built on correct
interpretation. But to study the word just to fill your head with knowledge
without applying the word impedes God purpose in giving it to you. All matters
are relevant. If we fail to heed what we’re reading and ignore what God is
telling us, then our faith grows stagnant. Therefore, in order to grow and
increase our faith, we need to use that “measure” of faith God gives to everyone
and build on it.
3. Test the Word
There is a difference in
“testing” God by “contesting” Him (seeing how far God’s patience will go with
your own self will) and “testing,” or proving God’s Word is true. Malachi
3:9-11 offers one practical way God says we can prove Him faithful to His Word.
This passage concerns tithing and being good stewards of the things He has
given us: Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will
not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that
there will not be room enough to store it.” As you “test” or act on what
God says and experience God’s blessing, your faith grows.
The process of testing the measure of faith you have may involve trials and difficulties. How can you increase your faith in those circumstances? Consider it pure joy. Whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. James 1:2-3.

Motivating your Mind! (Class project - SCPR-520 Multicultural Media History)
Be and It Is! Imagine it, Believe it,
Achieve it!
What if I told you, you are meant to have an amazing
life, you are meant to have everything you love and desire and you are meant to
accomplish all of the things you would love to accomplish! All of the power you
have inside of you will allow you accomplish all of your desires once you
understand the way life works!
So many people do not live for today. They are completely
consumed with the future and yet how we live today creates our tomorrow. It is
what you feel today that matters because it is the only thing that determines
your future. Every single day is an opportunity for new life and on any one
day, you can change the future through what you feel and desire!
I read that every moment of life is infinitely creative
and the universe is endlessly bountiful. Just put forth a clear enough request
and everything your heart desires must come you.
You might be asking, what is a “clear enough request”?
Knowing EXACTLY what it is that you want out of life and requesting it! It’s
just that simple.
So the first thing you have to do is imagine it! Close
your eyes. Use your mind to focus on what you desire. See yourself with it.
Know you deserve it believe you could have it! Feel it. Whatever you want to
be, to do or have in life, it is yours. Your imagination is so strong, it
connects you to what you want in an instant. Then receive it! Whatever you
desire you must want it with all of your heart. Desire is love therefore you
must have a burning fiery desire in your heart to harness the force of your
desires.
Nobel Peace Prize winner George Bernard Shaw said
“Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you
will what you imagine, and at last you create what you will. You have to have
faith!”
What is will, you might ask. A will is a desire or wish.
Faith is to believe that which you do not yet see; and the reward of this faith
is to see that which you believe.
Everything that you do, know that you are creating your
own life’s story. So what story are you telling and will tell about yourself.
Do you believe everything you desire, you can have? Do you believe that you are
meant to have an amazing life? You are an unlimited being and the universe is
unlimited.
Your story may be whatever you want it to be. Therefore
start telling your story exactly how YOU want it to be. Imagine it, Feel it,
Believe it and Receive it! The power is within you! You have in you everything you need to
accomplish anything you want! Keep imagining.
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living
someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results
of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out
your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart
and intuition ... Stay hungry, Stay foolish." Steve Jobs
For me, failure is not an option! However, I did fall.
And each time I fell, I learned something.
Oprah once said "It doesn't matter how far you might
rise. At some point you are bound to stumble. ... If you're constantly pushing
yourself higher ... the law of averages, not to mention the Myth of Icarus,
predicts that you will at some point fall. And when you do I want you to know
this, remember this: There is no such thing as failure. Failure is just life
trying to move us in another direction.

Just Be (Class project - SCPR-520 Multicultural Media History)
My daughter, one of her school mates and I went to Ocean
City last week and returned Monday morning. While I’ve been there several
times, I finally had quite a bit of time to observe my surroundings, enjoy the sunrise
and sunsets, appreciate the natures beauty, acknowledge God and work on
building a stronger relationship with myself, those around me and more
importantly – GOD!
Anyhow, as I sat thinking of the how I can become a better
me, the thought HOW to BE came to mind. So, I decided to google it; How to Just
Be! There were over 1 million results but primarily focusing on things like How
to Be Yourself, Be By Yourself, Be in Love, Be Happy and so on.
One particular site came up on the search engine that I
decided to give it a look over. And to my surprise, there was a host of
information was on the page that linked me right back to meditation. One
paragraph noted that to if you’ve never meditated, just being is pointless,
sounds passive and indulgent. However, if you have - to “Just Be” it’s a
freedom in being that is cleansing and productive thus when recognized we are
able to see how much more creative, considerate and judicious our actions could
be if we would “just be”.
People all around me/us are doing this and that but the
question came up on whether the actually doing is part of a problem. Very few
just stop! Stop with social media, making and taking phone calls, checking
emails, writing or whatever they are doing. But just sitting in a quite area
with no interruptions to do deep breathing will allow you to just BE in the
moment.
I also stumbled across a blog page by Britt Reints, in Pursuit of Happiness and she noted the
below comments by Naomi’s on what Just Being meant to her.
For me? Just Being means:
~turning off the computer (literally OFF, which can be so painful sometimes! Pathetic to actually type that out loud!)
~ actually listening to my littles when they ask me a question
~ sitting for 5 minutes with headphones on while waiting to pick up my kids, instead of gabbing with other moms at school
~ not turning on the tv before bed and simply sitting there, collecting my thoughts aimlessly, rehashing the good in the day I’ve just finished.
I’m learning to love finding the small moments in the course of a day!
She said that to just be is about minimizing distractions so
that you can do the things that contribute to who you are.
So, during my down time in Ocean City, I noticed that from
these articles, I was right on track. The meditation, observation and
connecting to the universe and God are actions that I’ve taken to assist me
with being a better me! With all of the busyness that going on around, just
being seems to be what’s comfortable and keeping me grounded.

Be-And-It-Is Offers Meditation! (Class project - SCPR-520 Multicultural Media History)
Be-And-It-Is Offers
Meditation
Be-And-It-Is is committed to providing the residence in the metropolitan area with motivational course that may be used to sustain our lives. This month’s focus will be on mediation.
The highlighted service of the month is Meditation.
What do you think meditation is?
Most believe that mediation is concentration, loss of
control, exercises and mental effort. WRONG!
MEDITATION IS…
Meditation is a state of thoughtless awareness. It is a
state of profound, deep peace that occurs when the mind is calm and silent, yet
completely alert that takes us to a higher level of awareness. This enables us
as to fulfill our true human potential.
Most believe that mediation is concentration, loss of
control, exercises and mental effort. WRONG!
Below are just 10 VERY IMPORTANT benefits of mediation.
·
Mediation is the number one most effective form
of stress reduction.
·
It increases our happiness and health
·
It increases wisdom and gives us perspective.
·
The more we meditate the less anxiety we have.
·
We become more creative.
·
Research show that meditators show more empathy
and compassion.
·
It has been proven to improve our memory.
·
It brings body, mind and spirit in harmony.
·
It changes attitudes toward life.
·
Mediation allows us to experience a sense of
oneness.
While there are many things in life that we do not have
control over, we do however have a responsibility and control over our state of
mind. By meditating, we will learn the patterns and habits of our own mind
which strengthens us giving us more positive ways of being. Such experiences
can hae a transformative effect and ultimately lead to a new understanding of
life.
Allow Be-And-It-Is to help make mediation apart of your
daily life!
