After a loss of a loved one the holidays may seem different for a while

6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

There is a difference between how kids celebrate the joy of Christmas versus the adults in their lives. Kids find joy in every little thing from anticipating what is in those gifts under the Christmas tree to going shopping at the mall to see Santa Claus to perhaps sitting on Santa's lap to tell him what they would like for Christmas.

The adults in their lives have a mixed bag of emotions from their earlier days when their favorite aunt or uncle or grandparent was still alive when the smell of freshly baked cookies filled the kitchen. For many Adults their eyes become moist when they look at pictures of their deceased loved one. For some, they just assume not to open up that albun which will certainly trigger their emotions if they did.

For some adults, the memories of lost loved ones sends them into a downward spiral of over consumption of alcohol and or legalized marijuana that for still some ends up in their own tragic death, creating a new layer of grief for the adults in their lives.

For me, the way I coped with the sudden loss of my daughter Maria was turning to God and relying on my faith community. I've found that recovery from grief isn't possible to do it alone. It is important that we all find a faith community of people who are safe for us to communicate our deepest needs.

Christmas, I've learned isn't about how many gifts we have under the tree. Christmas is about celebrating the birth of Jesus who came into a hurting world, not much different than the world we see today. We celebrate Christmas because Jesus came into the world to unite all humanity regardless of what worldview they currently possess. I'm reminded when I listen to testimonies how God often gives a vision in the minds of people who have chosen a different path to follow, but after their dream they make a commitment to follow Jesus.

As we sit by the Christmas tree remembering mom's love for cooking, or her occasional phone calls telling us that we can do anything we set our mind to, or being our cheer leader when she talks to her sisters and brothers, we can cling to God's word that "He will never leave you or forsake you."

There is one more thing a grieving person can do and that would be consider a group support group like Grief share or Compassionate Friends. I say this because it is essential that you tell your story about your loss to a community that truly understands what it is like to lose a child, parent, sibling, or other loved one.

As you do this, your pain will become less and your heart will become softer which will lead to helping others to recover simply through listening to their pain. In this sense, God will not waste the pain you're currently experiencing.

Christmas and New years is about celebrating the gift God gave the world which is sending baby Jesus in the form of a simple manger.

Through the use of gender confusion, the transgender movement took her daughter's life.

P> In Genesis 1:27 we read, "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." The man and woman are not named and both are created at the same time out of the same red earth. For the past 20 years the transgender movement has been infiltrating our public schools through the use of gender confusion books.

Their motive is to destroy the loving families who know how to best parent their child. They do so by keeping secrets from the parents once the child decides to transgender.The justice department has been weaponized by giving schools the power to have children removed from the parents home if the parents failed to honor the child's choice of pronoun. They confuse kids beginning in Kindergarten through books like Gender bread man, Gender unicorn, Queerfuly and wonderfully made. When you look at some of these books your immediate reaction is one of disgust and anger. Their motive, according to one Trans legislator is to stop the genocide of the trans people, as if this was a normal thing to worry about.

I find it disgusting that public schools allow for this indoctrination of our children to take place- it is beyond evil. Sex should be a topic left to the parents at the appropriate time.

Schools should focus on teaching children how to read, write, do penmanship, and learn about science in order to prepare them for tomorrow's careers.

Statistics indicate that public schools have failed miserly in this department with many children being unable to pass a college entrance exam. Do the public schools care? You would like to think so, but the reality is they are more interested in creating more victims and voters for the democratic party.

The Minnesota legislature made it illegal to suggest to a gender confused child that they need mental health therapy with heavy penalties if anyone tries to do so. They also gave the courts the power to remove a child if their parents refuse to us the child's preferred pronoun.

When you factor in the reality that children are being gender confused as early as Kindergarten, you can understand how easily it is for a child to fall into the gender confusion trap.

In the literature I have read I discovered that many kids on the Autism scale are being placed on the conveyor belt toward puberty blockers and irreversible trans mutilitation surgery that for the most part makes them patients for life. Keep in mind that kids on the autism scale can be easily persuaded that they were born in the wrong body through the use of gender confusion books.

There have been a growing number of kids who sadly had regrets that they ever went down that road. Some in their adult years discovered that they will never be able to breast feed a baby, or father a child.

Chloe Cole is one such individual who regretted those early decisions. She decided to sound the horn to warn others from venturing down this road that would surely lead to regrets.

One Trans legislator said after his bill was passed by the democratically controlled legislature that outlawed mental health therapy, " This bill will stop the genocide of trans people" He said this as though it is normal to be trans which it is not.

I found that the medical community sees performing double mastectomy's and genital mutilation as a billion dollar cash cow and they will do everything that it takes to preserve that profit.

This is not right which is the reason I'm doing everything it takes to protect our biological children from this Nazi era of surgical expermentation. The trans people like to say that this is a major problem, but this is a big lie. Roughly just 1-2 % of children have undefined sexual characteristics, but you wouldn't know that when you see that thousands are being referred to medical clinics over their choice of pronoun. This coming November 7th is a time that every sensible parent needs to come out and vote for strong parent lead school boards. If we can do this I think we can slow down the catrating of our boys and the mutlitation of our girls and force our schools to get out of the indoctrination game and return to teaching the hard core subjects that prepares young people for tomorrow's jobs. Lastly, I'm including this testimony by Chloe Cole.

I'm saddened as I watch what the trans Cult is doing to our biological woman and children selling snake oil as though it would solve all of their gender dysphoria problems.

“If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. Matthew 18:6

Please note that You tube may prevent you from watching this expose done by the Austrian media and if you are blocked you can find this expose on youtube.

With that being said, I feel a need to alarm everyone of how our public schools are indoctrinating our children into believing they were born in the wrong body and through the use of puberty blockers and gender mutilitation surgery they can have this corrected.

As you listen to these stories you will be immediately hit by the regrets when they discovered that 'changing their sex' did not make them happier and they decided to de-transitioned back to their original biological sex.

One person who detransitioned said that puberty blockers and mutilation surgery destroyed her body. The puberty blockers, for example, led her to developed brittle bones. Another person who de-transitioned lamented that she would never breast feed a baby.

In a charter school in Ham Lake, Minnesota parents withdrew their children when they discovered books that were introduced to helped children as young as kindergarten to believe they can be any gender they want to be. What is worse is the secrecy of keeping parents in the dark as soon as their child is coerced into changing their name and their pronoun.

Kindergarteners are far too young to be indoctrinated into believing they were born in the wrong body. Parents, not schools, should have the final say in the upbringing of their children.

What is wrong with public schools simply sticking to teaching the basics of reading, writing and arthrimetic and leaving sex out of the equation? Isn't their primary job to prepare these children for tomorrow's technical jobs?

The latest statiscis suggests that the vast majority of students aren't able to read or do math at grade level- clearly the public educational system has failed.

Yet, our public educational system seems more concern over indoctrinating children then educatng them while receiving record numbers of cash for doing so.

In the last legislative session there was a trans legislator who said the Gender 'affirming' bill, in his words, would stop the genocide of the trans community. His bill started the public school treadmill of indoctrinating children as young as kindergarten to move toward gender mutilitation care, all without their parents knowing about it. If parents refuse to acknowledge their children's new pronouns they can be reported and the child can be removed from their home. Governor Walz even declared Minnesota a sanctuary state for families who wanted to come here to help their child change their sex.

There have been countless of interviews with children, years later, who regretted what they did to their bodies. The change did not make them any more happier than they were before. What they really needed was mental health therapy, not some social worker who met with them a few sessions before rubber stamping their need for puberty blockers, a new pronoun, and steps toward irreversible gender surgery. When unhappy children went back to their doctors who did the surgery they were met with resistance and treated as a nuisance- doctors would circle the wagons.

In their mind, they accomplish the task of enabling the child to change their sex- case closed.

As a Christian, I'm opposed to watching this kind of suffering going on with our children. I'm opposed to men who believe they can be a woman so they can use the woman's bathroom even though they haven't fully transitioned. I'm opposed to men pretending to be a woman so they can avoid incarceration in a men's prison when a violent crime is committed. I'm oppose to men pretending to be a woman so they can compete in woman's sports simply because they were incapable of competing against other men. It saddens me to watch our public schools become indoctrination centers for the trans community, instead of being centers that prepare children for tomorrows technical jobs. It concerns me that these indoctrination centers will not listen to parents if they disagree with the schools decision while at same time treating them as the enemy.

If we are to fight back against this evil, we must turn out in mass on November 7th, 2023 to vote for school board candidates who are pro-family who will fight against the trans communities indoctrination efforts to destroy children. We must do the same in November 2024 by electing a President who's got the guts to stand up to the evils that are permeating in our culture.

Experts tell me that less than 1% truly have gender dysphoria issues that require transition care and for those individuals such care should be allowed, but for the rest of these children, mental health therapy is what they need to help them adjust to their biological sex. You aren't going to hear this on mainstream media, or in our public health system because this isn't the narrative they want you to hear.

But, we must fight back by against the public education system. We must make our voices louder than the voices on the other side. We must do this to save our biological children and woman. Together, we can accomplish this task.
