It takes all kinds of passionate freedom lovers to fight. Even so, I think he may need a cookie. Or two.

You don’t have to do something big, flashy, glamorous, expensive. Be treasured by those who matter in your sphere of influence. Just like Jesus did the miraculous with fish and loaves of bread, so can He multiply your talents, your dreams, your hopes, your efforts. You are enough.

What does fighting back look like to you? Giving speeches before crowds? Running for a political position? Having degrees and pedigrees? What if fighting back means taking care of your family? Looking out for your neighbors? What if fighting back is volunteering your time? Making a financial donation? What if fighting back is wearing a t-shirt with a thought-provoking question or quietly leaving behind a freedom message wherever you go? What if fighting back is losing your job? Homeschooling your kids? What if fighting back finds you humbled before God praying earnestly? What if fighting back is what you say it is and not what someone else says it is?

How many people did you help today? Did you pray? Care? Empathize? Love? What made you smile? Laugh? Are you needed? By your family? A dear friend? For this moment? You are enough.

For those who help the elderly couple down the street; for those who work two jobs; for those who make friendly talk with strangers; for those who are caring for a dependent parent; for those rocking a baby in the wee hours; for those attending school and town board meetings; for those homeschooling; for those who are tired, frustrated, disappointed, guarded and worried… You are enough.

We wonder how we can fight back. We see the generals, the attorneys, the media hosts, the channels with tens of thousands of followers. They appear in the know, connected, qualified, influential. And we wonder what we have to offer. We can’t compete with power, money, fame. We’re everyday folk. You know what? We are enough. No matter what walk of life, no matter what season you’re in, you are enough.

Hello Brave Patriots! There is new channel for Patriot Homeschoolers.

ATTENTION: I need some admins for a homeschooling Telegram group I set up. If you are interested, please send me a private message (DM) or reply in the comments 🙂

What a fun day I had. It was filled with prepositional phrases, fractions, weather study and 20th century history. Homeschooling is great because you can teach a young child how to read then later help an older child do a chemistry experiment. I do have some more encouraging posts to share, but of course, family first so please be patient with me. In case you’re having a rough moment 👇🏻

My staff is working on this right now We need ALL Republicans to get on board! https://conservativebrief.com/impeachment-joe-biden-48609/

Stay strong, Brave Patriots! “The Lord your God wins victory after victory and is always with you. He celebrates and sings because of you, and He will refresh your life with His love.” Zephaniah 3:17

This excerpt is from Prof Clements over at The Professor's Record: Of course, I was disappointed that we did not accomplish everything we had originally intended. But I’ve been repeatedly re-learning something important in the preceding months: it is God’s timing, not ours. Every time I see a plan “fail,” I look back at it and am amazed that the ultimate outcome is actually better than my planned one; I could not have planned it better myself. So, each day I re-imagine myself as a leaf on the river, flowing where God has planned. I am in good hands. “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” —Romans 8:28

👆🏻 It's okay to do this. And it's also okay to sometimes do this 👇🏻

Be consistent. Be resilient. Be independent. Make plans. Make friends. Make memories. Seek peace. Seek God. Seek friendships.

Irrespective of the bad things we’re reading about, should your determination to live free change your plans? What if these bad “what if’s” do not pan out, but you spent all this time worrying about it instead of directing your attention to something worthy of your care? Worrying is not trusting God. Worrying is time we cannot get back. Worrying steals moments from those we love. Worrying wears us down. We cannot look to mankind to save what mankind perpetually destroys. Perhaps instead of looking outward or inward, we look upward.
