In Flux – And A Bit Self Indulgent

I would like to wish a happy marry Holiday to all my friends in Utica, Syracuse and NYC.  Many of you have not heard from me in a while, I regret that. I seem to have a problem deciding and sticking with an idea of where I want to go with this newsletter. I have many friends who are spiritual but non-political, and others who are political but non-spiritual. So, over the past year I have made this newsletter almost exclusively about growing, finding and preparing healthy foods – which I do and always will care a great deal about and will continue to write about and advocate for. However, in hindsight I believe that was a mistake, and in part a betrayal of who I am, and I would like to take this time to apologize to my God and to my subscribers for not being my most authentic self.

That said, going forward the Apple Butter News – while maintaining a healthy living focus - is about to get a lot more spiritual and political in nature. For what can be healthier than being our best selves spiritually and showing our concern for our neighbors and our country by being politically aware and involved. Healthy living as a whole is Mind, Body and Spirit. Not just food (body).

To start – I recently bought a new phone and downloaded a Bible program (Bible, by YouVersion) and started a new reading plan. I would like to invite those interested in spiritual growth and upliftment to join me in this project. This will be the first of many reading selections of the Apple Butter News Bible Book Club.

Reading Plan Title and Description:
Project 3:45 is a simple, effective way to read the entire New Testament in one year. The plan involves reading one chapter per day five days a week and uses the weekends to catch up if you missed any days. The plan was named for the average of the three minutes and forty five seconds that it takes to read one New Testament chapter (obviously this time will vary due to individual reading rates, chapter lengths, and etc., … ) http://www.youversion.com/reading-plans/project-345

Bible Book Club
I will post a chosen scripture of the week from plan readings in this weekly email with a link to the rest of the week’s scriptures and comments on my Blog. (See blog update by next week)

The Apple Butter News Weekly will also contain political commentaries and links, healthy living news information and links, as well as new postings from AppleButterNewsClassifieds.com – where you can signup for a free account and post free classified ads to your hearts content.

Thank you for your continued support - or not; If you no longer wish to receive this newsletter please feel free to UNSUBSCRIBE below.

Yours truly,

Please pray for our public officials.

For they yield so much power over our lives. Just look at how much our lives have changes over the past eight years for reference. If we are truly our neighbors keepers, how can we sit back and be content to not get involved while so many remain hungry and their numbers are being added to daily. In this current economy, which has gone from bad to worst over the past seven years - now has many who were considered middle class just a year or two ago are now finding themselves sleeping on the streets as a result of erroneous political decisions by our top politicians. We are deeply engrossed in a war with no known exit strategy or intention, against folks who were not our enemy prior to our invading their territory. Most Iraqian’s were not exactly fans of America (for valid reasons) however, facts seem to reveal that 911, the primary reason given for the invasion, was the responsibility of al-Qaida in Afganastan, not Iraq.

Barack Obama - God's Modern Day David?

Barack Obama - God's Choice? Ecclesiastes 11:5 “As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.” Israel's First King: During the time of Judges - when Samuel, a man of God who served his people Israel as a Judge and also a Seer, grew old, the people of Israel cried out to him saying, "You are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways; now appoint a king to lead us such as all the other nations have।" Their request displeased Samuel because he knew and appreciated God as his king and theirs; so he put their request before God. God responded by assuring him that the people were not rejecting him (Samual) as their leader, but God, (Himself) as their King and refuge, as was usual. And God told Samual "Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know what the king who will reign over them will do." Samuel warned the people telling them ...
