PROVIDA SUPPORT COMMUNITY

I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE
FLAG,
 

OF THE
UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA ,


AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR
WHICH IT STANDS,


ONE
NATION UNDER GOD,

 
INDIVISIBLE, WITH
LIBERTY

 


 
AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!



For
All of our other military personnel, where ever they may
Be
Please
Support all of the troops defending our Country.






And God
Bless our Military who are protecting our Country for our
Freedom.
Thanks
To them, and their sacrifices we can celebrate the 4th of July 
 

 


We must never forget who
Gets the credit for the freedoms we have, of which we should be
Eternally grateful.


I watched the flag
Pass by one day,
It fluttered in the breeze..



A young Marine
Saluted it,
And then he stood at ease..


I looked at
Him in uniform
So young, so tall, so proud,
With hair cut square
And eyes alert
He'd stand out in any crowd.



I thought how many men
Like him
Had fallen through the years.
How many died on foreign
Soil
How many mothers' tears?


How many pilots' planes
Shot down?
How many died at sea
How many foxholes were soldiers'
Graves ?
No, freedom isn't free

I heard the sound of Taps
One night,
When everything was still,
I listened to the bugler

Play
And felt a sudden chill..

I wondered just how many times

That Taps had meant 'Amen,'

When a flag had draped a
Coffin.
Of a brother or a friend.




I thought of all the
Children,
Of the mothers and the wives,
Of fathers, sons and
Husbands
With interrupted lives.

I
Thought about a graveyard
At the bottom of the sea



Of unmarked graves in
Arlington .
No, freedom isn't free.



Enjoy Your Freedom
&God Bless Our Troops

The Bible tells us, "A merry heart does good, like medicine, but a broken spirit dries the bones" (Proverbs 17:22). In his book What You Don't Know May Be Killing You, Dr. Don Colbert noted that research conducted by the Department of Behavioral Medicine at the UCLA Medical School into the physical benefits of happiness proved conclusively that "laughter, happiness, and joy are perfect antidotes for stress." Colbert added, "A noted doctor once said that the diaphragm, thorax, abdomen, heart, lungs — and even the liver — are given a massage during a hearty laugh."

Look for ways to laugh more! It could be just what the doctor ordered.…

Jordan's Tip of the Day From the author of The Maker's Diet

He Who Laughs Last…
On second thought, reverse that! Always be the person who laughs first. Laughter is the social glue that holds our society together. Laughter creates a ripple effect of good vibrations and positive feelings. People who are able to laugh at themselves or the world around them often put others at ease. Whether at work or in a social situation, be the person who laughs first. It's good for your (and everyone else's) health!

Jeanie -- I just ordered both those books from www.Amazon.com -- for 16.39!!!  I went 2 his website -- but it would have cost me 27.90.  So I saved almost half off that way!!!

Thank you so much for telling about those books.  Ill let you know when I get through reading them!!!

Ok Jeanie -- here is what another posted about the 7 day water fast...I am wondering -- can your organs really shut down???

Hello divagirl2011,

I am concerned about tomecom's suggestion to fast for a week on a water only diet and possibly repeat this fast after a two week rest. My concern is the possible shutdown of the liver and kidney and no medical information or guidance to support these suggestions. I have done a fast and detox but each day and stage was supported with what I needed to do and what affects I would experience from this fast on my body, my organs, my headaches, and what to eat and when.

Charles

In the book Help Lord the devil wants me fat.  I would suggest that you share this book with anyone who is even thinking about this.  Just for the reasons Charles mentions. 

CS Lovette explains all that happens on a long fast and the things to expect.  FASTING IS SET UP FOR US FROM GOD.  Man has made it a thing to be afraid of.  Many things happen when you stop eating.  it takes a couple of days to detoxify and get past the headachs and stuff. 

But the rewards when you get to about the 6th and 7th day are awesome. 

Like I said: " i have been on many 10 day fasts"  You must know there is a way you must come off them safely.  You can do great harm to your body if you do not understand everything that happens on an extened fast. 

PLEASE READ THE BOOK and then let me know what you think.  Copy and share these things I said and if you order the book.  If you feel you want to say I suggested it feel free to do so.  My name is Rajean Cunningham from Nebraska. 

I have been a big fan of Peronal Christianty and the truth that CS Lovette has published for over 30 years.  I don't know that they are a big huge ministry.  I heard him speak on radio 30 + years ago and that is how I know of him and I ordered the book, as far as I know he is not on TV or radio anymore nor has he been for the last 30 years, he was there when I need him and his message has never changed.  I would suggest you even read his auto biography, wonderful testimony, and he teaches his congregation to fast regurally, and he is over 80 years old and they still do 10 day fasts.   

Provida and the 6 wbmo is the best way to go for extended way of eating to live and loose weight. 

Blessings Jeanie

Jeanie -- I learned so much this past six weeks!!!  And yes it is WORTH IT!!!  It was just an intercession -- not a regular cession.  But a regular one will start again in a few weeks I am sure.  I will let you know when it does.

All I can say is this...

INFORMATION is a VITAL KEY to this program.  And I have taken in a lot lately and it has moved me up the ladder in getting the right mind set to do this.  Why it takes me longer to get in sync -- I have no idea!!!  But as of today -- I finally realize -- THIS IS ALL MY FAULT.  I HAVE THE RIGHT TOOLS AND I JUST NEED TO APPLY THEM!!!

We turn in our final stats tomorrow and so -- how long till the next regular cession starts -- I have no idea.  So I am gonna hang out here with you till then and after!!!  Hopefully you will want to join again -- and hey -- I don't sweat the small stuff anymore --  and I am learnig to not push my self in NBU -- but just do the best I can.  So remember that!!!  Don't get stressed out over it!!!

Hope to see you today here!!!

Andrea

JeanieJones55:

OK everyone on here.  I know I am on vacation but I sure miss you all. 

Andrea I see you are on NBU, is it easy to keep up with, would you recommend it.  I would love to check into it when I get home.  Especially if you enjoy it.  I know you have to wait probably till they start over.  But if you do I would love to do it with you.  If it is as motivating as it looks when I read some of the posts.  Let me know.

HOW ARE YOU ALL????   I am having a ball, went to the Ocean in SC and did get sunburned.  It rained off and on all the way there and so the two little one's (5 and 7) we prayed no rain while on the beach.  It stopped from the time we parked the camper untill the time we left the beach and got back on the road to head back to NC.  Awesome what the Lord does for his kids, if we ask.  Like I told the two little one's we have to ask, believe that it is already stopped raining then it will happen.  It did and it does every time. 

When we ask, believe that we receive and thank him for it even if we don't see it.  YEA HE IS SO AWESOME.  WE WILL SEE IT MANIFESTED IN THE NATURAL. 

Love and miss you all.  Jeanie  Have a SHALOM WEEK or TWO. 

Sorry about my spelling there is no spell check on this computer and I don't want to down load something to someone else's. so bear with me till I get back home on my own.  Blessings.

Jeanie -- I hope and pray you are doing well!!!

YES!!!  THIS IS ME!!!  LOL!!!

JeanieJones55:

I did go back and find this.  I think it is important to bring it forward. 

By the way Andrea is that you on your profile.  Awesome picture and it is always nice to have a face to go with the name and good friends.  I have known you for almost 2 years I think.  have to go back and see.  Could be longer.  First time ever to have a picture.  I am so glad you posted it. 

oceanwaves38:

Jeanie -- I would say that -- planning is the most IMPORTANT thing that we can do as this stage of the program!!!

Not having a PLAN -- is in itself A PLAN TO FAIL...

We need to prepare and be prepared or we won't be successful...

So -- with that -- we know that we need to

1.  Get our daily water of 100 oz

2.  Eat every 2.5 - 3 hours

3.  Sculpt

4.  Cardio

5.  And we need to Track our progress with weight and inches

6.  Need to take out before pics if u haven't already

7.  Chart your food intake

And I am so sure I am missing something here -- just got this of the top of my head...been meaning to do it all week...am so sorry...

Ok -- gonna try and catch up on all the POSTs...

Andrea

 

Jeanie -- YOU are such a BLESSING!!!  I think this is one of the most amazing post I have ever read!!!  I am so glad you are here -- to share your wisdom with us!!!

Andrea

JeanieJones55:

GOOD MORNING!!!

Seems like forever.  Donna thanks for your input, love to have you join us even if it is only now and then.  All of us are only now and then on here. 

On the fasting!  For me I enjoy doing it, and love the 10 day water fast with honey and lemon, if I choose. 

Fasting is not for everyone, fasting to loose weight is definitely not a way to loose.  When I first did it, I thought it was a weight lose thing, but rereading CS Lovetts book over the years I found that is not the case.  Fasting is a way to get control over bad habits and to have a great spiritual relationship with Father. 

I would not tell or suggest to anyone who had any kind of disease, or fear of it, to fast for any extended period of time, unless the LORD told them to do so. 

Mark 9:28-29  After Jesus had gone indoors, his disciples asked him privately, "Why couldn't we drive it out?"  He replied, "This kind can come out only by prayer and fasting."

Fasting is a very important part of our spiritual walk with the LORD.  Over and over again in scripture we are showed to fast, and, the Lord calls us to fast.  Fasting as CS Lovett teaches is an awesome way to gain control of the spoiled brat, our bodies.  DO NOT FAST to LOOSE weight, you will gain it back immediately when you come off the fast. 

To fast in any way it is important to understand the spiritual aspect, and your reason and motive to fast.  Our pastor who was raised by and worked with awesome people like Rien Heart Bunky(sorry if spelled wrong, and Mother Teresa he is Chinese and raised in India) He said that going on extended fasts are very important for all peoples everywhere.  They fast for 7 to 10 days, and longer, at a time using only black tea and water.  These people to do not have any weight to loose, that he was talking about.

My uncle bless his heart who now is with the LORD.  Whom was also the longest living and first kidney transplant person. Fasted for days and weeks at a time, using a bran or grapenuts cereal early morning only + water. 

NONE THAT I KNOW OF USED Fasting for LOOSING weight, IT DOESN'T work that way.  And never fast for an extended period of time without telling at least one person.  DO NOT FAST TO LOOSE WEIGHT. 

Right now I am on a fast I have chosen for me.  It is called 6 wbmo and being on it OP.  And spending time with the LORD ever moment that I am not busy working or having to communicate with others at work.  Being instant in prayer.  Something like that. 

GOD FIRST

FAMILY SECOND

Sharing the gospel is my favorite past time anytime. 

CHURCH, BIBLE STUDIES, EVERYONE or THING ELSE IS 3rd in my life.

Doing this is also fasting by giving up all the other foods you would eat otherwise or you can fast from Soda, bread what ever you are addicted to, it works, even from smoking, you can go on or call it a fast to become a none smoker.  every time you crave a cig. drink a glass of water, it takes 7 to 10 days to clear your body of these toxins and then it is important if you stumble don't condemn yourself, start over immediately.  WE WIN IN CHRIST, if we are willing to give of ourselves. 

I would tell every one DO NOT FAST if you have any kind of fear.

DO NOT FAST to loose weight, it doesn't work, that way.

DO NOT FAST unless you understand how to come off of a long fast.

DO NOT FAST just because someone told you to, pray about it, let the Holy Spirit guide you in every thing you do. 

DO FAST even if only one meal a day or from other things that have a hold of you and are pulling you from the LORD.  FASTING IS OF THE LORD.

HERE IS WHAT I CALL or it is called

THE TRUE FAST. 

This is the fast that will heal you.  This is the fast that will set us free.  This is the fast that will bring peace in our lives. This is the fast that will set us free from even over weight or over indulging.  THIS IS THE FAST OF THE LORD.

READ THE WHOLE CHAPTER.

Isa 58:5-11
5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?
7 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?
8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward.
9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;
10 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday:
11 And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.
(KJV)

I say all this in the name of JESUS.  Praise ye the LORD. 

Have a HOLY, Blessed, and Shalom day.  Jeanie.

 

This was exciting to come home from a long day of running to and fro.  :)  Went to church this morning, awesome service.  Then one of my grand daughters is getting married and had to be at the bridal shower by 2 which is 1/2 hour from home and then as soon as I left there had to go another hour east to Omaha to pick up Mai one of the youngest gd.  Then back home.  Got home and had to go clean up somewhat from the art show we had this weekend.  Will finish it tomorrow.  Good just to sit down and relax. 

Even more so to sit down and see lots of posts on here. 

Again on Wed this week I leave early morning to head to CO to take 2 of my other granddaughters home.  Will be back Sunday night.  Going to take my oldest daughter along, she hasn't been on a vacation in a long time and of course one of her sons my youngest grandson.  UGH KIDS.  Praise God for all of them.  I love them with all my heart. 

Andrea thanks for reposting that what I wrote on fasting.  Does me good to reread some of those things.  I sometimes can't even believe I wrote it.  God is good all the time. 

I will be looking forward to NBU with you.  Hope to here from you again soon.  Love you.  SHALOM. 

Jeanie -- I have been ill today -- was fine yesterday -- seems like it may be kidney related -- I so need your prayers...I am in a lot of pain...

Andrea

You got it!!

Father we just come to you right now.  Ask that you touch Andrea with healing from the top of her head to the soles of her feet.  I speak to you kidney, you function properly in JESUS NAME.  I speak peace to your whole body, as Jesus said to the storm.  Peace be still.  I say to your kidney PEACE BE STILL. 

Now we are to call things that be not as though they are.  I call you,I mean you   Kidney be healed in Jesus Name. 

Amen, and Amen.  BE WELL ANDREA IN JESUS NAME. 

Love you Rajean

I am excited for the fact that my weight is dropping once again.  After about 2 months of staying at 250. This morning I weighed in at 244. 

I have found a site that is really quite awesome, http://www.knowthecause.com/ it don't talk about 6w but it gives insite to everything we are doing and how right it is. 

Not only that, as I was reading and listening to some of there short video's. I realized that since I started eating right no longer dieting(using 6w)I found that the fungus I had under my toes is no longer there.  The fybro that I was dignosed with, I can't say when, for sure, I haven't felt the pain of it. 

I believe we are on the right track of welness.  as we follow the foods that are important for us.  Check  this out (in my opion)it gives you the answer to why we have great results with MT and 6wbmo. 

You can also check out Dr. Don Colbert site, another awesome Christian Dr. speaking the truth on food we eat.  

Have a SHALOM week, will be back on the 20th.  My last trip to CO Springs for a while now.  SHALOM Jeanie

Just thought I would drop by and see if anyone is here.  I have been back from CO for a few days now and doing great on my eating OP. 

I did have a slight gain of a couple of lbs.  I weighed this morning and was 245.4 so it is coming back down. 

This trip to CO was more stressful then ever before.  I did have a great time having my two daughters together was quite awesome.  You see they are 9 years apart so they never really ever did anything together.  So it was an awesome time just having those two spend 3 days together, even if mommy did tag along.  Teresa is 40 now and Liz is 31.  They are two terriffic kids. 

Sorry I meant to post this picture, but I hit the ok botton instead of the upload.  Here is my two oldest girls.

Wow -- those are some precious gurls you have there!!!  They take after you Jeanie!!!

How are you doing???  I am better!!!  Just wanted to check in with you!!!  I gotta get back on plan 2morrow!!!

And I need to start reading those books I ordered!!!

God Bless

Andrea

Thanks I think they are pretty terrific to. 

I have been doing ok, but the enemy has been coming at us full force.  This morning the Lord gave me this scripture to share at church.  I will show you how we have been taught this scripture and many scholars now say it is wrong.  By just taking the comma out from behind the word flood.  I will put a new one in where they say it belongs in red. 

Isa 59:19
19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in, like a flood the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.
(KJV)

This is good advice for those whom use this type of foods.  I know I try not to use them.  For me it is getting easy, my family isn't real pleased, it is getting down to just my DH and I so each little thing is easier to switch to the good stuff.  Funny how God in his word already warned people how and what to eat.  To bad we didn't just listen.  He didn't have to have scientific info for the people to believe they just did.  Time for me to trust HIM completely in all things.  Blessings

Be careful about what you spread on your toast this morning. Many hydrogenated fats (liquid fats injected with hydrogen gas at high temperatures under high pressure to make them solid at room temperature) are heavily promoted as health foods, but scientific findings say otherwise. Common hydrogenated fats include margarine and shortening. The production process converts them into indigestible trans-fatty acids. According to a 1995 study by Dr. Mary G. Ennig, hydrogenated fats have been associated with cancer, atherosclerosis, diabetes, obesity, immune system dysfunction, sterility, birth defects, low birth weight, lactation difficulties, decreased visual acuity, and problems with bones and tendons.

Rather than promote unhealthy dairy "imposters," the Maker's Diet focuses on the balanced intake of natural fats occurring in ocean-caught fish, cod liver oil, omega-3 eggs, and grass-fed, organic, and free-range meats. It also includes animal products such as butter, cheeses, and full-fat lacto-fermented dairy products such as yogurt and kefir.

Better, More Edible Spreads
Always choose butter over margarine or other low-fat spreads. For the healthiest spreads, choose butters that are made out of raw goat's or cow's milk.

Well Jeanie -- we all have our issues...and ur right -- God will come in like a FLOOD!!!  Amen!!!

I have got my GD today!!!  Gonna have her for 12 hours!!!  She is sleeping right now!!!  So I am able to get some much needed paper work done for my DS!!!

I so miss you!!!  When I can let's decide when I can call you!!!  U b sweet and I will be back later...

God Bless

We have aloud the enemy to come in like a flood and not given the Spirit of the LORD His rightful place in us. 

 

I have been flooded out enough here in NE now I say; with the power of the most high PEACE BE STILL, and NOW THE FLOOD OF THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD HAS LIFTED UP A STANDARD AGAINST OUR ENEMY.   PRAISE BE TO THE LORD.  Shalom CHRIST IN US THE HOPE OF GLORY. 

 

I am doing ok OP but I still struggle with purging.  I don't need to yet I do it.  I was praying and asking for help and the LORD gave me an answer the morning after.  I just happen to listen to Creflo the next morning and the only part I heard, was something like this.  He said; person struggling with problems such as weight and other things(that was the one that caught my attention). He then said those who purge or do other things to try to loose weight that are not right for us.  That it was because of FEAR that we do those things.  It was is FEAR that got us where were at.  So it has been interesting what HE has been showing me and how he shows me. 

 

I could go on but probably should do some of it in a private email.  I am tired right now so will probably head to bed or just go relax for a while till I fall asleep. 

 

I think you will truly enjoy the books you ordered CSLOVETTE was one of the men who helped write and bring the AMP bible into being.  His biography is quite interesting. 

 

SHALOM and BLESSINGS FROM the MOST HIGH GOD, OUR FATHER. 

Love you Jeanie.
