She experienced evil. She fought evil. Evil was not erased immediately. She kept on fighting to possess the good and enjoyable life that God promises to His believers.
She is Elaine Riddick. Riddick was raped by a neighbor at the age of 13 who threatened to kill her. Riddick was also raped by North Carolina state who sterilized her without her consent while she at age 14 in 1968 was giving birth to her son conceived through rape. Watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzYQLHHCxq8 of a CNN interview with Elaine Riddick.
Riddick filed a lawsuit in 1974. The Supreme Court rejected her lawsuit. Riddick didn't quit. She kept fighting. Riddick says in the CNN interview, "Well I think for me ... I had to recover because I'm on a mission, and sometimes we can't look at our self. Sometimes we have to do God's will, and God's will is for us to be happy and you know to go on with life. Pick yourself up, and go on. You can't look at what society has dealt you. You just gotta to think about what you mean to yourself. What am I worth? Am I meant to sit here and just take this? No, you don't sit there. You don't lay down and take anything." Galatians 6:9-10 Amplified Bible says, "And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint. So then, as occasion and opportunity open up to us, let us do good [morally] to all people [not only being useful or profitable to them, but also doing what is for their spiritual good and advantage]. Be mindful to be a blessing, especially to those of the household of faith [those who belong to God’s family with you, the believers]."
Don't interpret the Word of God with a mindset of shame and condemnation. God is for people. His Word is to empower Christians and to inspire nonbelievers to receive an empowering, eternal relationship with God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ and God the Holy Spirit.
Temporary setbacks do not have to be our destiny. Elaine Riddick did not start out as a warrior queen. She says in the CNN interview about her response to finding out she had been forcibly sterilized by North Carolina state, "After I found out that it had happened to me I was totally humiliated, degraded, and it was a big insult. You know I became a hermit. I didn't want to deal with people. I didn't want to live in society. I just couldn't believe that my government would do something like this to me."
Joyce Meyer writes in her book Joy redefined Loving Others, "It is impossible for you to be happy if you don't get your mind off yourself and start reaching out to help someone else."
Elaine Riddick became an advocate for people forcibly sterilized by North Carolina, for unborn boys and unborn girls killed by abortion, for women's health and for the disabled. She says about her state-sponsored sterilization, "You will never recover from this because it's always there. Every time you wake up when you go to sleep it's there. You think about how you've been treated in this country here. You think about--well me myself I had been so severely damaged until I was on Prozac, Serentil and Haldol, and that's how I coped. I had to wean myself off these things in order for me to cope, and I have to cope, and I have to go on." Now more than four decades after her state-sponsored sterilization, North Carolina is offering compensation to those forcibly sterilized.
Are you a victim of American state-sponsored sterilization? A Persian proverb says, "Opportunity should be grabbed." In North Carolina $10 million is to be split equally among those sterilized through the North Carolina Eugenics Board. Compensation claims must be filed by June 30, 2014, for victims to receive a one-time payment to be distributed June 30, 2015. North Carolina had a eugenics board from the 1930s through the 1970s through which social workers, family and others arranged for people to be sterilized. If you think you are one of the victims, you can ask the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation to check the North Carolina Eugenic Board's records by completing and mailing them this form: http://www.sterilizationvictims.nc.gov/documents/FirstPartyVerificationform.pdf. Sometimes people are not able to speak up for themselves and need advocates. If you are not a victim, but are an advocate for a victim, you can ask the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation to check the North Carolina Eugenic Board's records by completing and mailing them this form with required attachments: http://www.sterilizationvictims.nc.gov/documents/ThirdPartyVerificationform.pdf. These forms are verification and not a guarantee of compensation.
In South Africa Desmond Tutu retired as archbishop to head the Truth and Reconciliation Commission that exposed many of the evils done under apartheid, so that evil may be stopped and good promoted. North Carolina is not the only American state that did state-sponsored sterilizations.
Cindy Trimm says in her book Commanding Your Morning, "Think big and think detailed!.... Become a visionary--be creative. Take the limits off your mind! Think beyond where you are.... Ask God to enlarge your capacity for thinking, to take the limits off." Other American states besides North Carolina and other nations need to apologize to, financially compensate victims and erase all forms of "family planning" evil.
The door to evil has not been closed. US Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote in the 1927 Buck v. Bell case upholding American state-sponsored sterilization, "It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind. The principle that sustains compulsory vaccination is broad enough to cover cutting the Fallopian tubes.... Three generations of imbeciles are enough." Like Roe v. Wade which legalized abortion in America Buck v. Bell has not been overturned.

Write about sterilization abortion, infanticide, "family planning" and the loving, Biblical rejection of Margaret Sanger style sexuality. Because God loves us, God does not will for us to have partner sex outside of marriage. Because God loves us, God wills for us to enjoy sex inside of marriage. God does not want any of us to be afraid of sexuality and try to stomp it out. God created sexuality. What God creates is good, beautiful and excellent provided we participate in God's creation according to His design. God designed sex to bond marital couples. Sometimes sex leads to reproduction.

Truth And Reconciliation Needed, Part 12
We need copious time to develop and celebrate fresh and familiar ways of lovemaking. Read my article "Hugs and Kisses" at http://michelefjackson.blogspot.com/2013/04/hugs-and-kisses.html.
A wife/lover says to her husband/lover in Song of Songs/Song of Solomon New Living Translation Bible 7:11-13, "Come, my love, let us go out to the fields and spend the night among the wildflowers. Let us get up early and go to the vineyards to see if the grapevines have budded, if the blossoms have opened, and if the pomegranates have bloomed. There I will give you my love. There the mandrakes give off their fragrance, and the finest fruits are at our door, new delights as well as old, which I have saved for you, my lover."
Spouses are supposed to be joyous friends and lovers who engage in creative and comforting sex. God is the Creator. Christians are to imitate God who lives inside of us. Creative people cultivate new things, fresh things and old things, familiar things. Matthew 13:52 Amplified Bible says, "He said to them, Therefore every teacher and interpreter of the Sacred Writings who has been instructed about and trained for the kingdom of heaven and has become a disciple is like a householder who brings forth out of his storehouse treasure that is new and [treasure that is] old [the fresh as well as the familiar]."
Have you put oils and lotions on your feet, so that your spouse can kiss, lick suck and massage your toes with delight? Is your butt in shape? Read my article "Touch Time" at http://michelefjackson.blogspot.com/2013/02/touch-time.html. Write to:

Love is not suppose to hurt. Romans 13:10 Amplified Bible says, "Love does no wrong to one’s neighbor [it never hurts anybody]. Therefore love meets all the requirements and is the fulfilling of the Law."
Abortion hurts. Abortion kills unborn boys and unborn girls and even adolescents and adults. Abortion harms a woman's cervix and other body parts. Watch this video with Dr. Freda McKissic Bush http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60C87TaxpQQ.
Dr. Alveda King talks about abortion harming her cervix, how the method of delivering her unborn son permanently damaged his face, the birth control methods recommended to her by Planned Parenthood caused her health problems and the attack on elderly people. Watch her speak about her "family planning" experience in this Civil Rights and the Pro-life Movement speech https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zj4JAbHvw9U.

Sterilization and rape hurt. A neighbor and North Carolina state raped Elaine Riddick. A neighbor raped Riddick at the age of 13 and threatened to kill her.

But prior to that before I had the hysterectomy most of my life was I had to live in a whole lot of pain, hemorrhaging. When I got my monthly cycle ... it felt like someone had taken a knife and was gutting me .... My menstrual cycle ... wasn't normal because it lasted ... 12 to 15 days at a time, and this happened from the time ... after I had my son from the time I was 14 until I got into my 40s when I eventually did have to have a total hysterectomy."
Riddick said in the CNN interview regarding the psychological pain of her sterilization, "You will never recover from this because it's always there. Every time you wake up when you go to sleep it's there. You think about how you've been treated in this country here. You think about--well me myself I had been so severely damaged until I was on Prozac, Serentil and Haldol, and that's how I coped.

Marriage is not supposed to hurt. Elderly people enjoy marital romance and sex; they do not want to be denied food, water and medical treatment.

Compensation claims must be filed by June 30, 2014, for victims to receive a one-time payment to be distributed June 30, 2015. North Carolina had a eugenics board from the 1930s through the 1970s through which social workers, family and others arranged for people to be sterilized. If you think you are one of the victims, you can ask the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation to check the North Carolina Eugenic Board's records by completing and mailing them this form: http://www.sterilizationvictims.nc.gov/documents/FirstPartyVerificationform.pdf. Sometimes people are not able to speak up for themselves and need advocates. If you are not a victim, but are an advocate for a victim, you can ask the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation to check the North Carolina Eugenic Board's records by completing and mailing them this form with required attachments: http://www.sterilizationvictims.nc.gov/documents/ThirdPartyVerificationform.pdf. These forms are verification and not a guarantee of compensation.
In South Africa Desmond Tutu retired as archbishop to head the Truth and Reconciliation Commission that exposed many of the evils done under apartheid, so that evil may be stopped and good promoted. North Carolina is not the only American state that did state-sponsored sterilizations.
Cindy Trimm says in her book Commanding Your Morning, "Think big and think detailed!.... Become a visionary--be creative. Take the limits off your mind! Think beyond where you are.... Ask God to enlarge your capacity for thinking, to take the limits off." Other American states besides North Carolina and other nations need to apologize to, financially compensate victims and erase all forms of "family planning" evil.
The door to evil has not been closed. US Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote in the 1927 Buck v. Bell case upholding American state-sponsored sterilization, "It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind. The principle that sustains compulsory vaccination is broad enough to cover cutting the Fallopian tubes.... Three generations of imbeciles are enough." Like Roe v. Wade which legalized abortion in America Buck v. Bell has not been overturned.

Truth And Reconciliation Needed, Part 9
Genesis 2:24-25 Amplified Bible says, "Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and shall become united and cleave to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. And the man and his wife were both naked and were not embarrassed or ashamed in each other’s presence."
Marriage is for the nakedness of partner sexual union and for love. All forms of rape are for shame and against love.
A neighbor and North Carolina state raped Elaine Riddick. A neighbor raped Riddick at the age of 13. North Carolina state raped Riddick by sterilizing her without her consent her while she was giving birth to her son conceived through rape. Watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzYQLHHCxq8 of a CNN interview in which Elaine Riddick says about her North Carolina state-sponsored forced sterilization, "Later on because of my body was traumatized so severely I ended up having to have a total hysterectomy. But prior to that before I had the hysterectomy most of my life was I had to live in a whole lot of pain, hemorrhaging. When I got my monthly cycle ... it felt like someone had taken a knife and was gutting me .... My menstrual cycle ... wasn't normal because it lasted ... 12 to 15 days at a time, and this happened from the time ... after I had my son from the time I was 14 until I got into my 40s when I eventually did have to have a total hysterectomy."
Riddick said in the CNN interview regarding the psychological pain of her sterilization, "You will never recover from this because it's always there. Every time you wake up when you go to sleep it's there. You think about how you've been treated in this country here. You think about--well me myself I had been so severely damaged until I was on Prozac, Serentil and Haldol, and that's how I coped. I had to wean myself off these things in order for me to cope, and I have to cope, and I have to go on."
Sometimes people consider physical health as more important than mental health. The reality is that they both need our regular attention, and failing to take good care of ourselves physically and mentally is dangerous and even fatal. Read my article "Heart Disease, Depression and Christianity" at http://michelefjackson.blogspot.com/2013/02/heart-disease-depression-and.html.
Our physical and psychological well being can be harmed in a variety of ways in sexual relationships outside of marriage. Christopher Yuan says he was strangled by a boyfriend/lover in his book Out Of A Far Country A gay son's journey to God. A broken mother's search for hope., and he continued to stay in the relationship for a while. Have you ever accepted something in a relationship that is unacceptable? Write to:

While God does not will for us to have partner sex outside of marriage, He wills for us to enjoy sex inside of marriage. God does not want any of us to be afraid of sexuality and try to stomp it out. God created sexuality. What God creates is good, beautiful and excellent provided we participate in God's creation according to His design. God designed sex to bond marital couples. Sometimes sex leads to reproduction. Read my article "Fearless Sex" at http://michelefjackson.blogspot.com/2013/01/fearless-sex.html.
Sexual sin doesn't have to stop us from enjoying fearless sex. Have you participated in killing an unborn boy or an unborn girl? If we are in relationship with God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ and God the Holy Spirit, abortion and any other sin does not separate us from the love of God. Stop sinning, and shake off shame and condemnation. Enjoy friendships with the opposite sex and the same sex, and if marriage is God's will for you, also enjoy sex with your spouse. Refuse to allow shame and condemnation to steal the joy and the feast of sex with your spouse.

God is the creator of human life in all its varieties. Exodus 4:11 Contemporary English Version Bible says, "But the Lord answered, “Who makes people able to speak or makes them deaf or unable to speak? Who gives them sight or makes them blind? Don’t you know that I am the one who does these things?"
People in favor of abortion, sterilization, infanticide and "family planning" are against the human race. Margaret Sanger of Planned Parenthood says in an interview with Mike Wallace, "I think the greatest sin in the world is bringing children into the world that have a disease from their parents, that have no chance in the world to be a human being practically, delinquents, prisoners, all sort of things, just marked when they are born. That to me is the greatest sin that people can commit" (Watch the interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsrOPDdbTzM.)
Clarence Gamble, a colleague of Margaret Sanger, and also a leader in the birth control movement, wrote in Hygeia, the health magazine of the American Medical Association, January 1948, "Why fear Sterilization?" to justify forced sterilization, "Most frequent of all is the need to prevent children from being born to parents whose reproductive cells carry well defined inheritable defects. In many cases the parents themselves are not defective; the defect may show up first in the birth of a defective child, but in certain types of defect this means a strong likelihood that other children born to the same couple will also be defective. In a hereditary form of blindness, for example, it would seem criminal to allow additional children to be born to lives of darkness."
Chen Guangcheng is blind. He is also the husband of Yuan Weijing and the father of Chen Kerui and Chen Kesi. Chen Guangcheng filed a class-action lawsuit in China in 2005 against forced abortion and forced sterilization practiced as part of China's one-child policy. China put him in jail and house arrest from which he escaped and is now living in New York with his family. In this interview http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doiWP2SQx2E Chen Guangcheng encourages people to find out the truth and support human rights and freedom.
Whether we live in China, North Carolina, other parts of America and other parts of the globe God loves us and desires for us to live well with great joy. God does not want us to be passive and refuse to participate in good deeds. Are you a victim of American state-sponsored sterilization? Don't let threats or pressure stop you from standing up for what's right. You are lovable to God, and God wants you to love yourself and other people.

Truth And Reconciliation Needed, Part 7
Some people are committed racists, sexists and/or elitists etc. Others are committed to what they don't realize is false compassion that is truly racist, sexist and/or elitist etc. Wallace Kuralt thought he was helping disabled, low-income and/or people not of certain European heritage by forcibly sterilizing them. The Charlotte Observer reports that Kuralt was a welfare director in North Carolina from 1945 to 1972 who said in a 1970 interview that “we’ve pursued sterilization of the inadequate parents more actively than any place in the world... Our activities (in birth control and sterilization) have caused us to give aid to less than 50 percent of the families we would have had to give aid to if it were not for these activities.” Read more here: http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2013/08/08/4223519/alice-mae-jackson-and-eugenics.html#.UjHJM3_mViM#storylink=cpy.
Wallace Kuralt did not believe in godly, loving equality. God the Son Jesus Christ commands us to love ourselves and other people equally. Jesus Christ says in Matthew 22:39 Contemporary English Version Bible, "The second most important commandment is like this one. And it is, “Love others as much as you love yourself.”"
Some public and private healthcare practices violate Jesus Christ's commandment to love people. North Carolina sterilized Elaine Riddick against her will and many other people creating disabilities instead of curing them. Watch this video of a CNN interview in which Elaine Riddick says about her North Carolina state-sponsored forced sterilization "Later on because of my body was traumatized so severely I ended up having to have a total hysterectomy.

Truth And Reconciliation Needed, Part 6
God has a heart for hurting people. We all hurt in some ways because we are all harmed by sin.
One of the ways God shows His love for us is through people. In Acts 8 God sent Philip to an Ethiopian government official who had been sterilized. Ephesians 4:32-5:1 Amplified Bible says, "And become useful and helpful and kind to one another, tenderhearted (compassionate, understanding, loving-hearted), forgiving one another [readily and freely], as God in Christ forgave you. Therefore be imitators of God [copy Him and follow His example], as well-beloved children [imitate their father]."
Philip was kind to the Ethiopian official by telling him about having an eternal relationship with God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ and God the Holy Spirit. Philip was not stingy. He didn't keep the good news to himself. He shared it.
God forgives our wrongdoing. God wants us to stop doing wrong, and keep on doing good. Ephesians 5:9 Amplified Bible says, "For the fruit (the effect, the product) of the Light or the Spirit [consists] in every form of kindly goodness, uprightness of heart, and trueness of life."
A holy, loving person loves the human body and rejects healthcare that is really a means to creating disabilities and even death. Watch this video of a CNN interview in which Elaine Riddick says about her North Carolina state-sponsored forced sterilization "Later on because of my body was traumatized so severely I ended up having to have a total hysterectomy. But prior to that before I had the hysterectomy most of my life was I had to live in a lot of pain, hemorrhaging .... When I got my monthly cycle ... it felt like someone had taken a knife and was gutting me .... My menstrual cycle ... wasn't normal because it lasted ... 12 to 15 days at a time, and this happened from the time after I had my son from the time I was 14 until I got into my 40s when I eventually did have to have a total hysterectomy. " https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzYQLHHCxq8.
Eugenicists and their modern-day advocates want us to believe in abortion, sterilization, "family planning" and infanticide as forms of healthcare. But lies and love are incompatible. Even though 1.2 million unborn people die by abortion annually in the United States sometimes unborn boys survive abortion. Watch this video including Gospel Singer and Abortion Survivor Fred Hammond http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXOM99fm1A8. Sometimes unborn girls survive abortion. Sometimes survivors have disabilities inflicted on them as a result of the abortion. Baby Ana Rosa Rodriquez had her arm sliced off during an abortion. Gianna Jessen survived an abortion at Planned Parenthood but has cerebral palsy as a result. Watch this video of Gianna Jessen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mg9iVgCl1Z4.
In America we still have freedom of speech. This freedom does not exist in China. Chinese family planning officials beat up Li Fengfei, forced her to undergo a second-trimester abortion that killed her child and harmed her and are now charging her with a crime! Read her story here http://www.chinaaid.org/2013/09/li-fengfei-arrested-after-exposing.html. Human rights activist and lawyer Chen Guangcheng spent time in jail and house arrest in China because he filed a 2005 class-action lawsuit against forced abortion and forced sterilization. He escaped house arrest and is now living in New York. Watch this interview in which Chen Guangcheng, who is blind, says, "China likes to use violence to crush people like me" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doiWP2SQx2E.
Are you a victim of state-sponsored sterilization? Don't let threats or pressure stop you from standing up for what's right. You are lovable to God, and God wants you to love yourself and other people. A Persian proverb says, "Opportunity should be grabbed." In North Carolina $10 million is to be split equally among those sterilized through the North Carolina Eugenics Board. Compensation claims must be filed by June 30, 2014, for victims to receive a one-time payment to be distributed June 30, 2015. North Carolina had a eugenics board from the 1930s through the 1970s through which social workers, family and others arranged for people to be sterilized. If you think you are one of the victims, you can ask the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation to check the North Carolina Eugenic Board's records by completing and mailing them this form: http://www.sterilizationvictims.nc.gov/documents/FirstPartyVerificationform.pdf. Sometimes people are not able to speak up for themselves and need advocates. If you are not a victim, but are related to a victim, you can ask the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation to check the North Carolina Eugenic Board's records by completing and mailing them this form with required attachments: http://www.sterilizationvictims.nc.gov/documents/ThirdPartyVerificationform.pdf. These forms are verification and not a guarantee of compensation. In South Africa Desmond Tutu retired as archbishop to head the Truth and Reconciliation Commission that exposed many of the evils done under apartheid, so that evil may be stopped and good promoted. North Carolina is not the only American state that did state-sponsored sterilizations. Other states need to apologize to and financially compensate victims and erase all forms of "family planning" evil.

Truth And Reconciliation Needed, Part 5
God designed each one of us with sexuality to be celebrated, managed and not hidden. Having a disability does not cancel God's design for beautiful, Biblical, balanced sexuality. Read my article "Caliente! (Hot!)" http://michelefjackson.blogspot.com/2013/02/caliente-hot.html.
Advocates of abortion, sterilization, "family planning" and infanticide want to cancel the sexuality of the disabled, low-income and those not of certain European heritage. Clarence Gamble, MD, heir to the Procter and Gamble fortune, was one key such advocate who was also heavily involved in Planned Parenthood, described people as "hopeless mental cripples" and fought against people pouring "defective genes into the State's blood stream to pollute and degrade future generations" (Better Health Magazine of the North Carolina Social Hygiene Society, October 1947, "Better Human Beings Tomorrow A Doctor Discusses Frankly The Process of Sterilization And Argues For Wider Use Of Sterilization.")
Gamble's thinking helped the establishment of and promotion of "healthcare" facilities and legislation that disrespects people and creates disabilities rather than curing them. Watch this video of a CNN interview in which Elaine Riddick says about her state-sponsored forced sterilization "... My body was traumatized so severely I ended up having to have a total hysterectomy" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzYQLHHCxq8.
Riddick was sterilized more than 40 years ago through the North Carolina Eugenics Board, and she is still talking about it because she loves herself and others. "For me I had to recover because I'm on a mission. Sometimes we can't look at our self. Sometimes we have to do God's will."
In Acts 5 religious leaders sought to stop the apostles from telling people about Jesus Christ. "Then Peter and the apostles replied, We must obey God rather than men (Acts 5:29 Amplified Bible.) Jesus Christ died for sin and to have an eternal relationship with believers. Jesus Christ rose from the dead in three days and wants the good news spread globally. Part of the good news is that God has given believers the power to love Him and people, and He has commanded believers to love.
Killing and maiming innocent people has nothing to do with Biblical love and sexuality. 1 Corinthians 13:6 New Living Translation Bible says about love, "It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out."
Love is active against evil. Chinaaid is speaking out against China's one-child policy. Family planning officials beat up Li Fengfei, forced her to undergo a second-trimester abortion that killed her child and harmed her and are now charging her with a crime! Read her story here http://www.chinaaid.org/2013/09/li-fengfei-arrested-after-exposing.html. Chinaaid is headed by Bob Fu who is a friend of human rights activist and lawyer Chen Guangcheng who spent time in jail and house arrest in China because he filed a 2005 class-action lawsuit against forced abortion and forced sterilization. Watch this interview in which Chen Guangcheng, who is blind, says, "China likes to use violence to crush people like me" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doiWP2SQx2E.
The apostles in Acts 5 experienced violent threats from authorities. Acts 5:42 Amplified Bible says, "Yet [in spite of the threats] they never ceased for a single day, both in the temple area and at home, to teach and to proclaim the good news (Gospel) of Jesus [as] the Christ (the Messiah)."

Proverbs 31:8 Amplified Bible says, "Open your mouth for the dumb [those unable to speak for themselves], for the rights of all who are left desolate and defenseless." It is not a sin to need a full-time caretaker or some other type of assistance. God has given us the responsibility to provide help according to the abilities He has given us. Deanna Copeland is a full-time caretaker for Andrea Hood who has cerebral palsy, spina bifida and autonomic dysreflexia. Copeland only earns $1,400.00 monthly for full-time work through a Medicaid program http://www.oregonlive.com/politics/index.ssf/2013/08/disability_rights_advocates_fa.html.
God wants people to prosper. Deuteronomy 28: 1-13 Amplified Bible says, "If you will listen diligently to the voice of the Lord your God, being watchful to do all His commandments which I command you this day, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you if you heed the voice of the Lord your God. Blessed shall you be in the city and blessed shall you be in the field. Blessed shall be the fruit of your body and the fruit of your ground and the fruit of your beasts, the increase of your cattle and the young of your flock. Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading trough. Blessed shall you be when you come in and blessed shall you be when you go out. The Lord shall cause your enemies who rise up against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways. The Lord shall command the blessing upon you in your storehouse and in all that you undertake. And He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God gives you. The Lord will establish you as a people holy to Himself, as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in His ways. And all people of the earth shall see that you are called by the name [and in the presence of] the Lord, and they shall be afraid of you. And the Lord shall make you have a surplus of prosperity, through the fruit of your body, of your livestock, and of your ground, in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give you. The Lord shall open to you His good treasury, the heavens, to give the rain of your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hands; and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. And the Lord shall make you the head, and not the tail; and you shall be above only, and you shall not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you this day and are watchful to do them."
In South Africa Desmond Tutu retired as archbishop to head the Truth and Reconciliation Commission that exposed many of the evils done under apartheid. Sterilization, abortion, "family planning" and infanticide are human rights abuses. So is not being paid properly for work. Deana Copeland plays a critical role in the healthcare, happiness and wholeness of Andrea Hood, and so do other caretakers like her.

Truth And Reconciliation Needed, Part 3
At the time when the Revolutionary War was being fought free African Americans did not have the same rights as other Americans because laws discriminated against persons of African heritage. Nevertheless, as a African American teenager James Forten joined an American ship called the Royal Lewis to help Americans win the Revolutionary War against the British. In a battle the Royal Lewis was surrounded by three British ships, so the American crew surrendered. Forten was at risk of becoming a slave as British sailors sometimes sold prisoners of African heritage into slavery.
One day Forten and other boy prisoners of war were playing a game of marbles. The British captain's son joined the game, and he and Forten became friends. Forten wasn't sold as a slave.
Later Forten married and had nine children. He also became one of Philadelphia's wealthiest people and a freedom fighter against slavery and for women's right to vote. Read more about James Forten, his family and his legacy in my article "Big is Beautiful" http://michelefjackson.blogspot.com/2013/02/big-is-beautiful.html.
James 1:2-4 New Living Translation Bible says, "Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing." God is not asking us to consider evil joy, but He is asking us to be developed for good to overcome evil. Forten's experience as a prisoner of war was an experience used to turn him into a warrior for freedom. Elaine Riddick experienced evil and used the experience to become a fighter for life. Desmond Tutu lived during apartheid in South Africa. He also lived to head the Truth and Reconciliation Commission where many victims and perpetrators of apartheid discussed the deeds done during apartheid, so that they might be known and never done again.
T.D. Jakes writes in his book T.D. Jakes Speaks on Power, "Why are the anointed persecuted? Anointed people are free people. The Word of God says that "where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty" (2 Cor. 3:17). Wicked leadership and stubborn, sedate people who have taken counsel against the Lord, do not like free people, because free people can't be controlled."
Wicked people consider anointed people unfit to live. Elaine Riddick was sterilized by people who practiced eugenics. Watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFJNX5bHYVI. Eugenics is a "science" developed by Francis Galton, a cousin of Evolutionist Charles Darwin, that advocates for the reproduction of certain people and for the elimination of other people, usually the disabled, low-income and those who are not of certain European heritage. A brochure of the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation describes eugenics as, "The concept or term eugenics refers to the intentional and selective breeding of humans and animals to rid the population of characteristics deemed unfit by those administering this practice. In the U.S., eugenics was carried out by individuals, nonprofit organizations and state governments that felt that human reproduction should be controlled."
While people across America became victims of state-sponsored sterilization, only North Carolina is financially compensating victims. If you have family and friends in North Carolina, please let them know about state financial compensation to victims of sterilization. Ten million is to be split equally. Compensation claims must be filed by June 30, 2014, for victims to receive a one-time payment to be distributed June 30, 2015. North Carolina had a eugenics board from the 1930s through the 1970s through which social workers, family and others arranged for people to be sterilized. If you think you are one of the victims, you can ask the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation to check the North Carolina Eugenic Board's records by completing and mailing them this form: http://www.sterilizationvictims.nc.gov/documents/FirstPartyVerificationform.pdf. If you are not a victim, but are related to a victim, you can ask the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation to check the North Carolina Eugenic Board's records by completing and mailing them this form with required attachments: http://www.sterilizationvictims.nc.gov/documents/ThirdPartyVerificationform.pdf. These forms are verification and not a guarantee of compensation.
Eugenics does not only involve sterilization, it also involves abortion and family planning. Watch this Maafa 21 video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02t3Wqg-4Iw.
China has a one-child policy. "China likes to use violence to crush people like me," says Chen Guangcheng in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doiWP2SQx2E. In 2005 Chen Guangcheng filed a class-action lawsuit against Chinese officials involved in forced abortions and forced sterilizations. Chen Guangcheng is involved with the Defending Freedoms Project which is an effort of multiple groups including the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission to increase attention and support for human rights and religious freedom through focusing on prisoners of conscience across the globe. Members of Congress "adopt" prisoners of conscience to advocate for their release. Pastor Saeed Abedini is a dual national of the US via naturalization and Iran by birth and is currently in Evin prison in Iran because of his Christian faith and works. Advocate for Pastor Abedini's release by prayer, by writing him a letter and by signing a petition at http://www.savesaeed.org.
Chen Guangcheng is blind. Being blind or having some other disability is not a reason to abort or to sterilize someone. God values all human life. Read my article "Embrace Disability. Reject Abortion" http://michelefjackson.blogspot.com/2013/02/embrace-disability-reject-abortion.html.
Amor primero, amor postrero (Love, first and last). God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ and God the Holy Spirit is Love always. Love is willing and able to overcome evil. America, China and other countries need a Truth and Reconciliation Commission. Much of the evil of abortion, sterilization and family planning is hidden and not yet made right. Some say it is not possible to get abortion, sterilization and family planning out of America, China and other places.

One day Forten and other boy prisoners of war were playing a game of marbles. The British captain's son joined the game, and he and Forten became friends. Forten wasn't sold as a slave.
Later Forten married and had nine children. He also became one of Philadelphia's wealthiest people and a freedom fighter against slavery and for women's right to vote. Read more about James Forten, his family and his legacy in my article "Big is Beautiful" http://michelefjackson.blogspot.com/2013/02/big-is-beautiful.html.
James 1:2-4 New Living Translation Bible says, "Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing." God is not asking us to consider evil joy, but He is asking us to be developed for good to overcome evil. Forten's experience as a prisoner of war was an experience used to turn him into a warrior for freedom. Elaine Riddick experienced evil and used the experience to become a fighter for life. Desmond Tutu lived during apartheid in South Africa. He also lived to head the Truth and Reconciliation Commission where many victims and perpetrators of apartheid discussed the deeds done during apartheid, so that they might be known and never done again.
T.D. Jakes writes in his book T.D. Jakes Speaks on Power, "Why are the anointed persecuted? Anointed people are free people. The Word of God says that "where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty" (2 Cor. 3:17). Wicked leadership and stubborn, sedate people who have taken counsel against the Lord, do not like free people, because free people can't be controlled."
Wicked people consider anointed people unfit to live. Elaine Riddick was sterilized by people who practiced eugenics. Watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFJNX5bHYVI. Eugenics is a "science" developed by Francis Galton, a cousin of Evolutionist Charles Darwin, that advocates for the reproduction of certain people and for the elimination of other people, usually the disabled, low-income and those who are not of certain European heritage. A brochure of the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation describes eugenics as, "The concept or term eugenics refers to the intentional and selective breeding of humans and animals to rid the population of characteristics deemed unfit by those administering this practice. In the U.S., eugenics was carried out by individuals, nonprofit organizations and state governments that felt that human reproduction should be controlled."
While people across America became victims of state-sponsored sterilization, only North Carolina is financially compensating victims. If you have family and friends in North Carolina, please let them know about state financial compensation to victims of sterilization. Ten million is to be split equally. Compensation claims must be filed by June 30, 2014, for victims to receive a one-time payment to be distributed June 30, 2015. North Carolina had a eugenics board from the 1930s through the 1970s through which social workers, family and others arranged for people to be sterilized. If you think you are one of the victims, you can ask the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation to check the North Carolina Eugenic Board's records by completing and mailing them this form: http://www.sterilizationvictims.nc.gov/documents/FirstPartyVerificationform.pdf. If you are not a victim, but are related to a victim, you can ask the North Carolina Justice for Sterilization Victims Foundation to check the North Carolina Eugenic Board's records by completing and mailing them this form with required attachments: http://www.sterilizationvictims.nc.gov/documents/ThirdPartyVerificationform.pdf. These forms are verification and not a guarantee of compensation.
Eugenics does not only involve sterilization, it also involves abortion and family planning. Watch this Maafa 21 video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02t3Wqg-4Iw.
China has a one-child policy. "China likes to use violence to crush people like me," says Chen Guangcheng in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doiWP2SQx2E. In 2005 Chen Guangcheng filed a class-action lawsuit against Chinese officials involved in forced abortions and forced sterilizations. Chen Guangcheng is involved with the Defending Freedoms Project which is an effort of multiple groups including the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission to increase attention and support for human rights and religious freedom through focusing on prisoners of conscience across the globe. Members of Congress "adopt" prisoners of conscience to advocate for their release. Pastor Saeed Abedini is a dual national of the US via naturalization and Iran by birth and is currently in Evin prison in Iran because of his Christian faith and works. Advocate for Pastor Abedini's release by prayer, by writing him a letter and by signing a petition at http://www.savesaeed.org.
Chen Guangcheng is blind. Being blind or having some other disability is not a reason to abort or to sterilize someone. God values all human life. Read my article "Embrace Disability. Reject Abortion" http://michelefjackson.blogspot.com/2013/02/embrace-disability-reject-abortion.html.
Amor primero, amor postrero (Love, first and last). God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ and God the Holy Spirit is Love always. Love is willing and able to overcome evil. America, China and other countries need a Truth and Reconciliation Commission. Much of the evil of abortion, sterilization and family planning is hidden and not yet made right. Some say it is not possible to get abortion, sterilization and family planning out of America, China and other places.

Is Love On Your Mind?
When Chief Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., wrote the majority opinion for the 1927 Buck v. Bell decision, he upheld the practice of state-sponsored sterilization and wrote that "three generations of imbeciles are enough."
However, God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ and God the Holy Spirit hasn't had enough of people, and He counsels us to think well about God and people. Proverbs 4:23 Amplified Bible says, "Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life." Deuteronomy 6:5 New Living Translation Bible says, "And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength." Leviticus 19:18 The Message Bible says, "“Don’t seek revenge or carry a grudge against any of your people. “Love your neighbor as yourself. I am God."
Some people carry a grudge against people who are disabled, low-income and/or minorities. Some also seek revenge. The Charlotte Observer reports that Wallace Kuralt, a North Carolina welfare director from 1945 to 1972, said in a 1970 interview that “we’ve pursued sterilization of the inadequate parents more actively than any place in the world... Our activities (in birth control and sterilization) have caused us to give aid to less than 50 percent of the families we would have had to give aid to if it were not for these activities.” Read more here: http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2013/08/08/4223519/alice-mae-jackson-and-eugenics.html#storylink=cpy.
It's this type of thinking that permitted William Lynch, Charles Holt, Alice Mae Jackson, Elaine Riddick, Nial Ramirez and more than 7,600 people in North Carolina to be forcibly sterilized. Elaine Riddick was raped at age 13 and became pregnant. At age 18 she got married and tried to have children a year later. When she couldn't, she found out that the state of North Carolina had sterilized her as her son, Tony Riddick, was being delivered by C-section. Elaine Riddick has been seeking to stop state-sponsored sterilization and to start financial compensation for the victims ever since. Due to her efforts and the efforts of many other people North Carolina is scheduled in June 2015 to pay $10 million split equally in a one-time payment to victims of North Carolina state-sponsored sterilization.
California has even more documented cases of state-sponsored sterilizations than North California. It has more than 20,000 and is believed to be the US state with the most sterilizations based on laws like the one upheld in Buck v. Bell. However, all state records have not been made public. Also California is not scheduled to pay compensation to sterilization victims.
The Buck v. Bell sterilization law and others like it are based on eugenic philosophy which believes that the human race can be improved by promoting the procreation of some considered superior and by eliminating the procreation of others considered inferior (usually the disabled, low-income and minorities).
When God tells the human race to multiply in the Bible, He doesn't limit procreation based on a person's physical, mental and economic characteristics. God does command people to have children within marriage. God wants children to be loved by a mother and father.
God is Love. Obey Love. Disobey the devil. Love sees the potential in people, does not embrace pride and desires to imitate God. The devil will use pride and any other sin to degrade, divide and destroy people.
Abortion, sterilization, discrimination against the disabled and others, and other evils can be stopped. “Anything is possible in this world," Chen Guangcheng says (Rosie Gray, "Chen Guangcheng: Chinese Government “In A State Of Madness,”" BuzzFeed, May 13, 2014.)
Disabled or non-disabled we all need help in various ways. Chen Guangcheng, who became blind as a result of a childhood illness and now wears dark sunglasses, is a self-taught lawyer from China who helped the disabled win public benefits and aided farmers fighting illegal land seizures. Chen Guangcheng became internationally known for filing a 2005 class-action law suit against Chinese government officials for forced abortions and forced sterilizations practiced as part of China’s one-child policy. Later he endured physical and psychological abuse in jail and in house arrest. Chen Guangcheng was in house arrest with his wife, Yuan Weijing, and the couple's daughter. Their son was being "educated." Eventually the Chen family escaped to the United States. Chen Guangcheng, a US immigrant, testified before Congress on April 9, 2013, regarding human rights abuses in China.
Timothy Liveright has committed human rights abuses in America. Timothy Liveright, an abortionist at a Delaware Planned Parenthood clinic, would sing "hymns about sin to girls during the painful dilation phase of an abortion," according to Jayne Mitchell-Werbrich, a former nurse at the clinic; read more at http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/she-the-people/wp/2013/08/02/another-gosnell-in-delaware/. Mitchell-Werbrich also said that Liveright placed patients on "operating tables still wet with the blood from the previous patient." Another former nurse at the Delaware Planned Parenthood clinic, Joyce Vasikonis, and a former healthcare manager at this clinic, Melody Meanor, have all testified of the unsafe, unsanitary, chaotic conditions in the Delaware Planned Parenthood clinic. Watch them talk in a "Planned Parenthood Whistleblowers" video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzt8u-LC34w.
Instead of Timothy Liveright's, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.'s, and Wallace Kuralt's way of thinking and trying to solve problems, think and do Biblical love empowered by a relationship with God.
Our thoughts are influenced by what we hear. Anti-love eugenic thinking is still around today. What are some common sayings that encourage abortion, sterilization and discrimination against the disabled and others? Write to:

Aid With Strings Attached
Alice Mae Jackson died in 1969 at age 42 of breast cancer, but her daughter, Henrietta, age 61, is alive and is eligible to collect financial compensation from the state of North Carolina for the forced sterilization inflicted on her mother by government officials in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.
When Alice Mae Jackson was alive she received state aid with strings attached. During one of her reviews for continuance of state aid Alice Mae Jackson took three of her four children -- 2 girls and a boy -- to the Mecklenburg County welfare department. Mecklenburg welfare officials told her to get sterilized or the state would take her children. Later government officials put Henrietta in an orphanage. After Alice Mae Jackson was sterilized she got Henrietta back.
James 1:27 Amplified Bible says, "External religious worship [religion as it is expressed in outward acts] that is pure and unblemished in the sight of God the Father is this: to visit and help and care for the orphans and widows in their affliction and need, and to keep oneself unspotted and uncontaminated from the world."
Aid is supposed to help people and be unspotted and uncontaminated with worldly strings like forced sterilization. Needing assistance is not shameful. Disabled or non-disabled we all need help in various ways. Chen Guangcheng, who became blind as a result of a childhood illness and now wears dark sunglasses, is a self-taught lawyer from China who helped the disabled win public benefits and aided farmers fighting illegal land seizures. Chen Guangcheng became internationally known for filing a 2005 class-action law suit against Chinese government officials for forced abortions and forced sterilizations practiced as part of China’s one-child policy. Later he endured physical and psychological abuse in jail and in house arrest. Chen Guangcheng was in house arrest with his wife, Yuan Weijing, and the couple's daughter. Their son was being "educated." Eventually the Chen family escaped to the United States. Chen Guangcheng, a US immigrant, testified before Congress on April 9, 2013, regarding human rights abuses in China.
Human rights violations such as abortion and forced sterilization are not God's will. God wants people to enjoy living. God the Son Jesus Christ says in John 10:10 Amplified Bible, "The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows)."
Most parents want their children to enjoy living. The daughter that Alice Mae Jackson did not take to her public assistance review, she had placed with other family.
Later on in life Henrietta met this daughter whose name is Sheila. They met as employees of a nursing home.
Alice, Henrietta, Sheila and their other siblings needed true help instead they received discrimination. Read more about their story at http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2013/08/08/4223519/alice-mae-jackson-and-eugenics.html.
North Carolina is scheduled to pay $10 million shared equally to victims of forced sterilization. If those forcibly sterilized are dead, the family's estate is eligible for compensation. Forced sterilization was legal in North Carolina based on a 1933 law that allowed government workers to forcibly sterilize people deemed to be 'mentally diseased, feeble-minded or epileptic.' In Oklahoma earlier this year Governor Mary Fallin signed into law the Nondiscrimination in Treatment Act which takes effect November 1 and is modeled after anti-discriminatory language in federal law. The law, the first of its kind to be signed into law in the United States of America, will prevent health care providers like those connected to nursing homes from denying food, water and other assistance "on the basis of a view that treats extending the life of an elderly, disabled, or terminally ill individual as of lower value than extending the life of an individual who is younger, nondisabled, or not terminally ill."

Cutting Waste And Working Wonders
Worship God. Use money to please Him. God is for immigrants and other people. Deuteronomy 10:17-20 Amplified Bible says, "For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, the terrible God, Who is not partial and takes no bribe. He executes justice for the fatherless and the widow, and loves the stranger or temporary resident and gives him food and clothing. Therefore love the stranger and sojourner, for you were strangers and sojourners in the land of Egypt. You shall [reverently] fear the Lord your God; you shall serve Him and cling to Him, and by His name and presence you shall swear."
Satan, the enemy of God and all people, gets some people to use money to please Satan by doing evil. Desmond Tutu, a Nobel Peace Prize winner, wrote a June 2013 article for the Huffington Post explaining that the Chinese government uses money to pressure people to do its evil will and that it is likely that New York University was subjected to this pressure. Tutu writes, "The university's public relations people say they are not responding to pressure in letting Chen go. Their statements are well worked out. However, the Chinese government's actions have been fairly consistent with businesses or allied countries who fail to do their bidding when it comes to voices they do not approve of. They have squeezed companies financially, dropped contracts, and in other ways have repeatedly threatened and punished those "business partners" who fail to tow the line. When the Nobel Committee awarded the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize to dissident Liu Xiaobo, one of China's responses was to strangle the Norwegian fishing industry, cutting their fish imports by 60%. In my own country in 2011, Chinese pressure on the South African government resulted in His Holiness the Dalai Lama being denied a visa to attend my 80th birthday party. They have gone so far as to have Chinese embassies contact film festivals and request that films critical of China be pulled from the festival. And they have rewarded those influential individuals who do their bidding handsomely."
New York University can still do good by reinstating Chen Guangcheng. Chen Guangcheng is a lawyer, human rights activist, blind and speaks Chinese. In 2005 he filed a class-action lawsuit against Chinese officials involved in forced abortions and forced sterilizations. China put him in jail. Then in house arrest. Chen Guangcheng escaped from house arrest and became a US immigrant along with his wife, Yuan Weijing, and their two children, Chen Kerui and Chen Kesi.
It's good for America to know about evil in other countries and those who are fighting against it. Helping these fighters to be successful helps to end evil in China and other countries.
We need many good fighters. Some of the evil in China is in America. Elaine Riddick was raped at 13. Then North Carolina state forcibly sterilized her. The sterilization was legal according to a 1933 law that allowed government workers to forcibly sterilize people deemed 'mentally diseased, feeble-minded or epileptic.' In the United States more than 60,000 people have been forcibly sterilized. Gianna Jessen was born with cerebral palsy due to an attempted abortion. Jessen survived the abortion. However, since 1973 more than 55 million girls and boys have been killed by abortion.
New York University should go out of it's way to help Chen Guangcheng.
America shouldn't help terrorists and criminals. On April 9, 2013, Chen Guangcheng provided Congress with a list of 44 Chinese officials who have been persecuting his family and recommended that they be investigated and denied US immigration based on crimes committed. Congressman Chris Smith made the same recommendation in a July 29, 2013, letter to Secretary of State John Kerry which also included a request that Secretary Kerry meet with or contact Chen Guangcheng to learn about the human rights situation in China.
America should help freedom fighters and immigrants. Recently, an African American woman asked if I needed a green card. I was born an American citizen. English was a foreign language to me then, but now I am fluent. I also did not pay a dime to become a citizen.
At one tragic time in American history African Americans who were free had to carry on themselves emancipation papers explaining how they obtained their freedom.
Wouldn't it please God to end abortion and forced sterilization? Wouldn't it please God to welcome immigrants offering them citizenship and to cut government waste like green cards? Write to:

At one tragic time in American history African Americans who were free had to carry on themselves emancipation papers explaining how they obtained their freedom.
Wouldn't it please God to end abortion and forced sterilization? Wouldn't it please God to welcome immigrants offering them citizenship and to cut government waste like green cards? Write to:

You Make Us Better?
"As I have already said, our number one goal should be to develop a close, intimate, personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Being in continual fellowship with God and learning to obey Him in all things will make you happier than you might ever imagine. Since God is Life, how can we hope to enjoy life apart from Him?" (Joyce Meyer, Making Good Habits Breaking Bad Habits 14 New Behaviors That Will Energize Your Life) Good, enjoyable relationships start with God who is love and expand to self and other people. "Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me" (John 14:6 New Living Translation Bible.) 1 John 4:10-11 Amplified Bible says, "In this is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation (the atoning sacrifice) for our sins. Beloved, if God loved us so [very much], we also ought to love one another."
Desmond Tutu and Nomalizo Leah Shenxane married on July 2, 1955. Almost 6o years later they are still married and still loving and enjoying God, each other and other people. Desmond Tutu is also involved in helping to free from a Chinese prison Chen Kegui, husband of Liu Fang, father of the little boy Chen Fubin and nephew to Chen Guangcheng, who is the blind, human rights activist who exposed forced abortions and forced sterilizations practiced as part of China's one-child policy and is continuing to work to end China's one-child policy and other human rights violations. Tutu writes about Chen Guangcheng in a June 21, 2013, Huffington Post article "Chen Guangcheng: Has NYU Bowed to Pressure From China?", "Chen Guangcheng has been one of the most outspoken of the Chinese dissidents abroad, taking a public stand against Chinese human rights violations, including the abominable practices of forced abortion, imprisonment and enslavement of religious minorities, and the unthinkable execution of prisoners for the harvesting and sale of their organs. He is also charismatic, intelligent, with a wonderful story -- a self taught lawyer who defended villagers against corrupt officials, who before gaining fame for his escape from house arrest was known ... in the villages as the "barefoot lawyer.""
When Jesus Christ lived on earth, He had a variety of relationships. Wherever He went, He sought to make people's lives better now and forever. What are some of the ways people are better off for being around you? Write to:

Open Your Heart To God, The Unborn, Immigrants And Others
Out of our relationship with God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ and God the Holy Spirit our relationship with self improves and if we have a spouse our relationship with our spouse improves. Improvement is not automatic. God gives His creyentes (believers) His Holy Spirit to live inside of us giving us power to improve, but we can choose not to use God's power which angers and grieves God. 2 Corinthians 3:18 Amplified Bible says, "And all of us, as with unveiled face, [because we] continued to behold [in the Word of God] as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are constantly being transfigured into His very own image in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another; [for this comes] from the Lord [Who is] the Spirit."
If we don't read God's Bible and live it, our relationships will not improve. Another name for God the Son Jesus Christ is the Word. God never meant for us to just have relationships with Him, ourselves and our spouse. God wants is to have many high quality relationships. Luke 10:25-28 Complete Jewish Bible says, "An expert in Torah stood up to try and trap him by asking, “Rabbi, what should I do to obtain eternal life?” But Yeshua said to him, “What is written in the Torah? How do you read it?” He answered, “You are to love Adonai your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength and with all your understanding; and your neighbor as yourself.” “That’s the right answer,” Yeshua said. “Do this, and you will have life.”"
Who are our neighbors? Luke 10:37 Complete Jewish Bible says, "He answered, “The one who showed mercy toward him.” Yeshua said to him, “You go and do as he did.”"
The United States House of Representatives has shown mercy to the unborn by passing the Pain-Capable Unborn Protection Act. Now the US Senate needs to do likewise. The US Senate has shown mercy to immigrants by passing immigration reform. Now the US House needs to do likewise.
Christian Minister and Civil Rights Activist Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., said in his speech Remaining Awake Through A Great Revolution, "Somewhere we must come to see that human progress never rolls in on the wheels of inevitability. It comes through the tireless efforts and the persistent work of dedicated individuals who are willing to be co-workers with God. And without this hard work, time itself becomes an ally of the primitive forces of social stagnation. So we must help time and realize that the time is always ripe to do right."
Christian Ministers Priscilla and Aquila were married and had a church in their home. They were friends with the single Christian Minister Paul. Neither Priscilla, Aquila or Paul limited themselves to their relationships with God, self and spouse. They all enthusiastically sought to relate to diverse, multiple people sharing God and themselves with others.
Priscilla, Aquila and Paul were fulfilled people who desired that others were like them. Acts 26:28-29 Contemporary English Version Bible says, "Agrippa asked Paul, “In such a short time do you think you can talk me into being a Christian?” Paul answered, “Whether it takes a short time or a long time, I wish you and everyone else who hears me today would become just like me! Except, of course, for these chains.”"
Paul wrote in Romans 12:9 Contemporary English Version Bible, "Be sincere in your love for others. Hate everything that is evil and hold tight to everything that is good." Abortionists are not examples of sincere lovers. Abortionist Kermit Gosnell is in jail for killing people. Sadly other abortionists like him are not in jail and are still killing unborn babies and women. Watch this video of an interview of former abortion clinic employees of Abortionist Douglass Karpen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fhyJItGPko. Watch this video of Abortionist LeRoy Carhart talking about his work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIlYXmG287g.
Chen Guangcheng, a husband, father of two children and human-rights lawyer who became blind as a child in China is now an American immigrant. Chen Guangcheng says that China's one-child policy with forced abortions and forced sterilizations affect the unborn, women and men. ""And a few days ago, in Xinyi, Jiangsu Province, local thugs beat up a woman who had more than one child because she couldn't afford the social maintenance fees," he added, referring to the penalty women had to pay for having more than one child.
"These things are still happening."
Chen said typically in these cases, pregnant women were seized by the National Health and Family Planning Commission officials and taken away.
"They would go to your home, drag you from your bed - you wouldn't be allowed to put on your clothes - put you in the car, drive you to hospital and you would be operated on. They would abort your baby whatever the conditions were - so long as you hadn't given birth to the child."
Chen said local officials would be under pressure to use all means possible to ensure the one-child policy.
"Not only women, but many men were forcibly sterilised. Both men and women were victims," he said (A May 23, 2013 Reuters Chen Guangcheng interview.)
ChinaAid, a human-rights organization, reports that husband and farmer Zhang Futao was beat up and hospitalized in May 2013 because he and his wife had three children in violation of China's one-child policy.
Sakura is the Japanese word for the cherry blossom flower. Sakura has a variety of meanings including beauty, purity and the fleeting nature of earthly existence. Since we don't live long, why not live well?
Open your heart wide to people. If you have God, you have the power to do it, and God commands us to do it. Zechariah 7:8-10 New Living Translation Bible says, "Then this message came to Zechariah from the Lord: “This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: Judge fairly, and show mercy and kindness to one another. Do not oppress widows, orphans, foreigners, and the poor. And do not scheme against each other."

Generosity Or Greed?
The right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are Christian ideals that are rooted in the love of God and stated in the American Declaration of Independence. Gospel Singer Anita Wilson sings in the song "Shower The People" on her album Worship Soul, "Just shower the people you love with love. Show them the way that you feel. Things are goin' work out fine if you only will do as I say. Shower the people you love with love. Show them the way that you feel. Things are goin' to be much better if you only will."
God loves His friends and His foes and wants His creyentes (believers) to also love friends and foes. Some foes turn out to be friends.
America is filled with creyentes, but sometimes in America's past and present we have had trouble loving people like God does. The 1913 California Alien Land Law prevented people who were not citizens or not eligible to become citizens from owing land. At the time most Asian Americans were prevented by law from becoming citizens.
Un dicho (a proverb) says, "Que lindo es vivir para amar; que grande es tener para dar" ("How beautiful it is to live and love; how great it is to have and give.") Jesus Christ warns us against greediness when He says in Luke 12:15 New Living Translation, "...“Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.”"
God teaches us to be generous to the oppressed and others. Some people leave their country because of hostility at home. Actor and Activist Christian Bale attempted unsuccessfully in 2011 to visit Chen Guangcheng, a human-rights lawyer, in China when Chen Guangcheng was under house arrest for filing a 2005 class-action lawsuit against officials involved in forced abortions and forced sterilizations practiced as part of China's one-child policy. Chen Guangcheng left China in May 2012 and is now living in America. Christian Bale said when presenting Chen Guangcheng with a human rights award at the annual gala of Human Rights First, "He [Chen] had exposed a program of forced abortion and sterilization in Shandong. A program of forced abortion means that women are being dragged from their homes against their will. They are being forced to have abortions, sometimes late-term -- imagine that -- with some women reportedly dying in the process. Now this is true horror. And in this insane world, this man, Chen, who was helping these women -- who was living by some of the most simple, brave and universally admired values -- values that we teach our children every day, and helping our fellow man -- for this, this man was imprisoned and beaten for over four years."
God wants us spiritually, mentally, physically, financially -- in all ways -- to be like Him now and eternally. Pray for change in China. Pray also for countries globally to pass immigration, abortion and other laws that love a diversity of people. 1 Timothy 2:1-4 Amplified Bible says, "First of all, then, I admonish and urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be offered on behalf of all men, For kings and all who are in positions of authority or high responsibility, that [outwardly] we may pass a quiet and undisturbed life [and inwardly] a peaceable one in all godliness and reverence and seriousness in every way. For such [praying] is good and right, and [it is] pleasing and acceptable to God our Savior, Who wishes all men to be saved and [increasingly] to perceive and recognize and discern and know precisely and correctly the [divine] Truth."

Sensational Sex Please
Song of Songs 7:12-13 New Living Translation Bible says, "Let us get up early and go to the vineyards to see if the grapevines have budded, if the blossoms have opened, and if the pomegranates have bloomed. There I will give you my love. There the mandrakes give off their fragrance, and the finest fruits are at our door, new delights as well as old, which I have saved for you, my lover."
Marriage is as old as when God joined Eve and Adam together. Married couples can keep their marriages new by continuously cultivating love and sexuality.
Tejas is the name the Spanish gave to the area that later became the state of Texas. Tejas is based on a native American word for friend.
One of Webster's New World Dictionary definitions for friend is "a person whom one knows well and is fond of." To know a spouse well requires abundant time together for things like observing, listening, conversing and learning what pleases and displeases each other, and then seeking to please each other.
Jesus Christ says in John 10:10 Amplified Bible, "The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows)."
Satan wants to make married couples so busy that they do not have time to relax and enjoy sensational, sex-filled marriages. Satan wants to fill their minds with worries, especially worries about housing, food, employment, money, etc.
Chen Guangcheng is married to Yuan Weijung. They have a girl and a boy born in China which has an one-child policy. God has no problem with a married couple having two children. Sometimes it pleases God for a married couple to have more than two children. Sometimes is pleases God for a married couple to have less than two children. It never pleases God to kill unborn girls and unborn boys through abortion.
However, Satan hates all children and is pleased by abortion. Satan works through people like the Chinese government who has been persecuting Chen Guangcheng, his family and the people of China.
In addition to having two children, Chen Guangcheng, a human rights lawyer, also filed a class-action lawsuit in 2005 against local Chinese officials involved in forced abortions and forced sterilizations. Then Chinese authorities sent him to jail for five years and then to house arrest.
Satan doesn't just work through Chinese officials, he also works through anyone willing to do evil and/or to be indifferent to evil. When Guangcheng escaped from house arrest in China and came to live in New York in May 2012, he and his family also had a place to live and other economic benefits provided to him as a visiting scholar of New York University. Now New York University seeks to threaten Chen Guangcheng's marriage, family and human rights work protecting unborn girls, unborn boys and others by forcing him to leave the university this month while denying that Chen Guangcheng's exit is connected to plans to build a New York University campus in Shanghai, China.
Chen Guangcheng is a friend of and works with ChinaAid founder and president Bob Fu, in the cause for human rights. Fu, who also escaped from China and now lives and works in Texas, said, "American universities are out chasing the China dollar and are very reluctant to work with dissidents who have a strong voice in China. It does not always have to be direct pressure from Beijing, there is also self-censorship, particularly if a college president believes their China campus or the future enrollment of Chinese students will be sabotaged."
A Nembe African proverb says, "Shy semen won't give birth." Not everyone is influenced by Satan to be afraid of sexuality and to try to strangle sex economically.
We can call our members of Congress today and urge them to pass the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act which seeks to place a national prohibition on abortions of unborn girls and boys 20 weeks and older. Twenty weeks is the time when the unborn are able to feel pain. Here's a link to call your member of Congress to co-sponsor H.R. 1797 the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act and to support the bill as is without changes: http://capwiz.com/nrlc/callalert/index.tt?alertid=62728636. We can also pray that the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act becomes law in America and that US Representative Chris Smith (R-NJ), a long-time friend of Chen Guangcheng, will be successful in his efforts to try to help Chen Guangcheng.
