From Avaaz:

Yesterday a band of men walked into a school in Pakistan and massacred over 100 kids. 100 CHILDREN! What kind of person does something like this?

Someone who sees schools as a primary driver to keep young people from recruitment into a life of violence. Education isn’t just the best antidote to poverty, it is one of the best anti-terrorism tactics — it helps kids get out of hopelessness and into opportunity. Let’s meet this tragedy with a massive global call to get every child in school.

Our governments promised they would get all kids across the world in school by the end of 2015. Let’s make it happen now for Pakistan and other countries — join the campaign to honour the memory of the children of Peshawar — it will be delivered by Gordon Brown, UN Special Envoy on Education, to the Prime Minister of Pakistan, and leaders who can make it a reality.

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Hanukkah/Chanukah! May we all be thankful and grateful for the small things, for the large things, for what we know and understand, for what we do not know and understand in each of our lives as ELOHIM [Hebrew word for GOD and who I believe is FATHER/SON/HOLY SPIRIT] works HIS miracles and blessings! May HIS WORD, the Narrow WAY, TRUTH, LIFE, LIGHT that Enlightens mankind guide and protect you as the work of our SHEPHERD, our HIGH PRIEST, our FATHER in Heaven, our TEACHER, our KING, our SAVIOR, our BRIDEGROOM, our COMFORTER, our FRIEND, our RESCUER and AVENGER is being accomplished! May as many as possible have the oil of the wise virgin and the wedding garment! May as many as possible have stains, blemishes, wrinkles, curses, sins, evil, wicked/wrong and unclean ways washed clean, purified and refined until we are HIS pure, fine, Qadosh [set-apart], Echad gold! AMAN/AMEN!!!

Shalom! [peace, prosperity, and all good things] Gail

Hong Kong (CNN) — China is building an island in the South China Sea that could accommodate the country’s first airstrip in bitterly contested waters, according to satellite images analyzed by IHS Jane’s Defence Weekly.

Reclamation at Fiery Cross Reef on the western edge of the disputed Spratly islands is creating a land mass that is more than 3,000 meters (2 miles) long and between 200 to 300 meters (650 to 980 feet) wide — large enough to construct a runway and apron, the publication said. Continue reading →

This tick was first described in 1758, but since 2008 there are new developments with it. Its bite is causing people to become allergic to red meat and some other foods, see below for details! With all of the Biblical signs of GOD/ELOHIM trying to get people to turn and repent going on in the USA and around the globe, this may be the only one with a sense of humor involved! It also includes a hidden lesson which HIS humor usually involves in Scripture [see the story of Jonah].

If you were ELOHIM [Hebrew word for GOD] and you had had it with your people loving red meat more than you, and you wanted to stop them from this sin of idolatry and clean them up, then what better way! Do not forget the sense of humor in regards to the name of this tiny vehicle of Deliverance, or the resemblance to the story of David vs Goliath! The size of a pea or even smaller, this tick is the namesake of the “Lone Star State” which is a place well known for its worship of cows and red meat! Also, since 2009, it has been found to cause a virus called “the Heartland virus”. This was discovered in the State of Missouri [misery?]. Is this another poke at us by ELOHIM or a description of how HE is feeling? Continue reading →
