Job! He had his eyes on eternity, not his trials.... 💗

Will be? As in, yet to come? 🤔 We are strong Patriots, as long as we remain in the Lord!

On December 16, 1773 the Sons of Liberty dumped chests of imported tea into the Boston Harbor. "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." Samuel Adams Some history if you need a refresher: https://www.libertarianism.org/publications/essays/excursions/boston-tea-party

Hi friends! Thanks for your continued patience as I figure things out concerning channels and whatnot. We continue to clean up and look forward to the day when Telegram just banishes the bots to Internet Oblivion™. I’m mulling over making The Liberty Tavern public or private. We’re figuring out how to run programs before opening up the comments. Part of me wants to make it private –something just for my friends. After all, countless other channels were contacted to see about sharing good news with patriots, but … crickets. Guess some folks just like drama and they won’t find that here. (That’s why you’re my peeps!) It was a lot of pressure to get the good news ready for Friday, and I wanted to try something different. I greatly appreciate you allowing me to expand my wings and experiment with The Liberty Tavern. Please leave a comment here letting me know if you have found The Liberty Tavern helpful. For those who don’t know, I have other channels as well: a homeschool one and a prayer one. Those channels will be getting a facelift soon. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for awhile now, but can conveniently add it my New Year’s Resolution list. God’s blessings to you!

Enjoy life! Good morning!

I would add: I love because He first loved me 😊 Courtesy @Layla S

-4- I am grateful that I did not allow the whole Trump Digital Card Hullabaloo to distract me from the Things That Matter Most™. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes it’s fun to analyze things. Just don’t let it or them or when or why haven’t distract you. We had a lovely anniversary outing, and when we briefly talked about the Trump Digital Card Ruckus, we did so in a giggly sort of way. We neither admire Trump more or knock points off his scorecard. In fact, we don’t even have a scorecard! We were not rattled, perturbed, impressed or otherwise thrown off course. And that’s what I encourage my friends to do: get to a point where the world’s katzenjammer* doesn’t wobble your faith in God. We must pursue what really matters. So what is that for you? * Real world = cookie

-3- Here is the message I really want to convey. Remember months ago when I was encouraging us to live a Less Is More life? I propose this approach should apply to our mental and spiritual health, too. First, we need to practice recognizing the deadwood. Then we need to practice courageously ridding it from our lives. Once we’re in the habit of acknowledging the useless, with the Holy Spirit’s help we will readily perceive the insignificant before it even has a chance to take root. There is liberty in Less Is More because the clutter which distracts us from being wholly engaged vessels for the Lord’s pleasure is removed. When something or someone is stealing my peace, my joy, I need to re-evaluate the value I’m giving it.

-2- Before moving on to the heart of the message, please allow me humbly offer my opinions for your mullification*. - Trump will never accept being Speaker of the House. The only ones who are unaware he won in 2020 are those who use pronouns and wear masks in their social media profiles. Plus he has announced his candidacy for 2024. - Trump is not going to announce Gitmo-style arrests. He will comment after the fact, after we all know at the same time. Which leads me to… - Assume there are no secret trials that have happened, are happening. Trump, and his trusted tight-knit circle, do everything by-the-book, lawfully, constitutionally. We will not be kept in the dark guessing. - Either Trump was too stupid to smell the dirty rats surrounding him during his Presidency and he continues to naively allow others to lead him by the nose, or he’s a genius, who sets traps, and he “caught them all.” It cannot be both. Just wanted to share my two cents –now seven cents due to inflation. * New word = cookie

-1- Have y’all noticed it’s getting crazier out here in Telegram World™ and I’m not referring to the Trump Digital Card Brouhaha per se. By now, I’m sure some of you have read all kinds of interpretations about those occupational superheroized* cards. My thoughts have not changed since this morning. In fact, seeing all the mud flinging and name calling on Telegram solidifies my initial thoughts: It doesn’t matter. I’m not being aloof, flippant, sarcastic, ironic, cynical. I’m telling you this as if you were my dearest friend hanging out in my home, eating some of my homemade cookies (which is how I usually envision you). Regardless if it was one big troll for grifters or a message for the Deep State or it was a CGI Trump or comms for We The People, it doesn’t matter. Real or fake, Trump Digital Cards should not impact our life, sway our opinion of Trump, or change our worldview. * New word = cookie

Read Psalm 136

Y'all I have some thoughts about Trump that may help us sort through the cra-cra. However, it'll have to wait as my beloved is eyeballing the clock. Don't worry about Trump's infomercial. It's all good friends. Life is good. God is so very good! Exactly one year ago today, I was separated from the love of my life as he got a tracheostomy, lying unconscious in the ICU. Perspective. Love is what matters.

Not me/something I would do.

Just kidding! I'm letting him take me out to a fancy restaurant. Hopefully it's like riding a bike and I'll know what to do when we get there. I'm a little rusty as I'm used to napkin dispensers on the table, eating cold food that used to be hot and at least one kid constantly kicking me. I should probably go get ready. It takes time to try on clothes, yank them off, fling them about the room pretending to be dissatisfied while secretly planning to wear the same outfit I like to wear when not wearing my Mommy Uniform™. And because I love him, I won’t wear my usual haphazard ponytail. It’s gonna be weird not ordering meals for people and helping them color their placemats, but I’m up for the challenge. And I will do my utmost not to embarrass Felix. Too much. Like I usually do 👇🏻

Yes!

And this 👇🏻
