Finding Joy and Peace

Today there will be much talk of women in high places, power suits, high-heels, and history in the making. 

It’s monumental. It’s never been done before. 

The message of empowering women is good. 

But I believe women have always ruled the world. 

Creators and shapers of humanity long before politics. 

While I respect those climbing the rungs on the ladder of history, I hope my daughters remember that today nothing about womanhood has fundamentally changed. 

They have always had power to change the world. 

Our guest Tiffany Braithwaite taught this in a recent post on Facebook,  

Today she will take us further, helping us step into our divine role as women to be creators and shapers of humanity.

Stay with us I believe you will be inspired.

Petter Jeppson was in a head on car crash resulting in an explosion, with Peter trapped inside. Life after the crash would become a living hell. How would he be able to survive the excruciating pain that he would have to experience, physically, emotionally, and socially with the loss of 50% of his skin? How would he overcome the longing to die? How would he eventually find peace and joy?  

You will love this beautiful story of faith and courage,  how one man walked into hell and came forth as gold, a tried and tested son of God.

PAIN

Pain stayed so long, I said to him today,

I will not have you with me any more.

I stamped my foot and said, “Be on your way!”

And paused, startled at the look he wore.

“I, who have been your friend,“ he said to me,

“I, who have been your teacher.

All you know of love, of sympathy and understanding and patience

I have taught you.  Shall I go?”

He spoke the truth, this strange unwelcomed guest.

I watched him leave and knew that he was wise.

He left a heart grown tender in my breast,

He left a far clear vision in my eyes.

I dried my tears, then lifted up a song,

Even for one who had tortured me so long.

Losses in life can change our world, taking away our familiar comfortable life and plunging us into an entirely new reality.  If we can get through the shock and grief that comes with trials, we will quickly find that this new reality provides many new opportunities, a whole new set of possibilities.

Todays  hero walked alongside this nation, in its infancy, for forty years.

He was considered one of the greatest warriors of all time and 

yet he hated war and wished it outlawed forever.

He defeated the greatest King of his time—then was urged to become a King himself.

Instead he retired, and became a humble farmer.

And thus the very King he defeated called him…

“The Greatest Man of the Last Hundred Years.”

Napoleon Bonaparte called him,

“The Greatest Man of the Last Millennium”

He was “The Father of Our Country”

“First in War, First in Peace, First in our Hearts..

“The indispensable Man” he is George Wahsington

And our second Hero was…

George’s adopted daughter,   

America’s first female Ambassador.

She played seven musical instruments,

spoke five languages, she was strong, feisty, intelligent, 

mischievous and the living joy of Mount Vernon,

an inspiring Woman every young lady should look up to…

Eleanor Parke Custis Washington, known as 

“Nelly” in George and Martha’s hearts.

Stay with us. I believe you will be inspired.

If you are a mother you will want to listen to this podcast and share it with every mother you know!

Did you always want to be a Mom? When you held your new baby for the first time, you felt immense joy and hopeful anticipation of what this new adventure would bring. Then, the realities of motherhood began to settle upon you: fatigue, endless responsibilities, and feeling, you no longer had control over your own life. During such times, it is not unusual to wonder where all the joy went. 

Christianity teaches that motherhood is the highest and holiest of callings. And yet we are human and only beginners in learning how to be mothers. The gap between that which truly is wonderful and fulfilling and those things which push us to our mortal limits—physically, emotionally, mentally, and even spiritually can be wide. How do we close the distance and find joy in the midst of the challenges that come with motherhood?

You will love our guest, Jessica Clayton, as she tells her story of navigating the roller-coaster ride that motherhood can be, including feelings of inadequacy and failure. Listen, as she shares the principles that helped through those emotions and become, passionate about motherhood. Her insights can help mothers expand their vision and find more joy in motherhood, regardless of their age or stage of life.

Directly east from my home, there is a beautiful mountain that rises majestically over our little community with a charming reservoir below. Not long ago this mountain stood proud with its lovely greenery reaching for the sky, with no concerns other than changing her colors in response to the gentle whisperings of Autumn in the air. Now, she stands black and smoldering. 

  The night of the fire, severe winds caused the fire to spread quickly covering 1,000 acres within an hour and grounded most of the aerial firefighting efforts. Things looked bad. However, to the credit of the people in my small community, many prayed with all their hearts for God’s deliverance. Their prayers were heard and answered almost immediately. 

You will love our guest Michelle Baer as she shares her witness that miracles have not ceased for those who put their trust in God.

What would life be like if you were not allowed to read the Bible and worship God as you please? What if you were persecuted for your beliefs and told you had to believe a certain way? What if you could not own your own land, choose your career, nor own the fruits of your labor?  What would you do? 

With faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the pilgrims came to America seeking resolution to these difficulties. We face many of these same concerns in our nation today. We sometimes take for granted the freedoms we have to worship God, follow our conscience, choose our career and then to work in a free market.

This year is the four hundredth anniversary of the pilgrims arrival in America.

As we approach this Thanksgiving holiday may we remember them—the sacrifices they made to follow their conscience and love God. 

In this podcast, we will learn of miracles as the Pilgrims were led by the hand of God in helping to lay the foundation of this great nation. 

This is a great podcast for the whole family to help them prepare for Thanksgiving.  I loved seeing Gods Hand working through the pilgrims, I know you will too.

Everyone has a mission. Everyone has something special they are to accomplish here on earth. Everyone was born with a gift, talent, or something God wants them to share in order to help others.

Each of us will encounter opposition as we strive to fulfill what God has asked of us. At times it will be hard, but we can do hard things as we  remember there are miracles and angels are among us. The heavens are not closed as some suppose. God does speak to his children through the Holy Spirit. In times of special need, God will send angels—divine messengers to help, instruct, affirm our faith and let us know we are not alone in the work we are given to do.

Our Guest, Tenna Hartman, will share the story of her hero, Joan of Arc, and liken it unto our day. She will illustrate how miracles come and angels visit those who have the faith to ask and believe. 

Here is a link to the BYU TV  Joan of Arc  show that we referred to in the podcast. It is a great show for the whole family.

Though the seeds of hate were sown within Eeno Kalola as a young child, she found herself one day sitting in a church congregation in the country of Namibia, where she found every race, and every tribe including her own represented. And they were all happy, something she had never seen before. She wondered, Why? How could this be? What could unite the Namibia nation together?

Our guest today will share her inspiring story of How God changed her heart and motivated her to be the change she wants to see in the world.
