Eye Vitamins: Eyes Vitamins Better than Medicine
When teaching high school I somehow picked up a staff infection, although it could have come from the Bally Health Club (going bankrupt). The gym in Orlando was filthy as they never cleaned it (probably still don't). Most of Bally's managerial staff left and went to work for other gyms in town.
I moved as well and work out elsewhere, but as for my eyes...
Although I visited both an optomologist and optometrist, their prescriptions only helped temporarily as the redness and infection continually returned. Not to mention using steroid drops in the eyes over the long term can cause cataracts - not my goal. LOL
Months later I then discovered this great vitamin I now take for my eyes:
http://www.amazon.com/Source-Naturals...
What I have found to work even better along with the above mentioned is http://www.amazon.com/NSI-Probiotic-1...
Within days of taking this the redness and infection in my eyes began to go away and the wonderful whiteness around the pupils returned.
To get all the vitamins mentioned at basement prices, I suggest you sign up here below for free:
http://www.ebates.com/rf.do?referreri...
When you do they give you $5 toward your first purchase AND money back every time you buy. I didn't believe it when my wife told me about this, but it is true.
So once you are signed up above, then you can type in the stores you want to shop at from Target to all the big stores, but for vitamins after you are in the site type VITA COST this will take / route you to a website with the best prices for vitamins AND give you cash back in your account at the above link once you have established an account.
So instead of driving to the vitamin store, burning case and paying wicked high retail prices, you buy wholesale, get cash back and they ship everything to your house.
It's a wonderful and economical experience saving you time and money, while ensuring your good health.

Presumption, Expectation and Inspection - Procurement, Purchasing & Personal Power
I once bought a toy from an Asian salesman on the NY subway. The toy he used to demonstrate worked wonderfully, but the one I bought from him and assumed would work when I get home to take it out of the box (by which he made an ass of me) worked terribly.
A motionless toy doesn't bring much joy to anyone's heart.
Nevertheless I learned a valuable lesson that day and quickly realized why people shop at stores that have return policies.
Presume and assume nothing - it's the great transgression (Psalm 19:12-13).
Assess and inspect everything thoroughly, especially that which you pay for, intend to marry and contractually bind yourself to.
Remember people don't do what you expect, but rather what you inspect.

However one problem I am currently trying to resolve as a merchant is stated below:
Paypal tech support over the phone today lacked knowledge, put me on hold numerous times to speak to a "specialist" (which obviously she was not) and still failed to provide accurate information.
I asked how to receive a client's payment who does NOT want to sign in / sign up for a paypal account.
It seems this is NOT possible.

Religion, Position and Your Spiritual Condition
Worship and serve God rather than being like the Mormons who introduce themselves by titles "elder' this and that. It's about relationship, not religion or position.
Focus on your earthly income earning occupation and personal health. God desires first that you be in physical and financial health (3John 1:2) before pursuing offices of ministry.
Besides just because you know your "calling" does not mean you have matured in the wisdom and grace of God to walk presently in that office and fulfill that ministerial assignment.
The apostle Paul was first a prophet and teacher in Antioch (Acts 13). Love and worship Jesus, read His Word, get away from prophetic excess (which tends toward manipulation) and get your feet back on the ground to live the good life.

Prophets and Hearing the Voice of God for Yourself - Old Testament vs. New Testament Living and Prophesy
Let us not forget we are not living in the Old Testament when people went to prophets to hear the voice of God. If you are born again in Christ, you have the Holy Spirit to speak to you (John 16:12-13; 14:26; Romans 8:16,14). In other words you can hear the voice of God yourself if you truly belong to Christ (John 10:27). Prophets in the NT are for edification, exhortation, comfort and to confirm what you have already heard from God (Acts 15:32; 1Corinthians 14:3). Again simply love and worship God, as you do expect the Holy Spirit to quiet your soul and speak to you (see Acts 13:2) as you minister "to God" rather than worry about ministering for Him.

Jesus Said, But Christians Don't Listen Nor Obey
The last thing Jesus said is the last thing we do!
The last thing Jesus said to His disciples and all believers was: "Go into all the world and preach the good news...making disciples of all nations." (Mark 16:15, Matthew 28:18-20)
Should anyone among you want to send me to preach the gospel to a nation in the 10/40 window where Christ is not yet known, I will happily go on your behalf and put my body in harm's way, endure bad food, parasitic infections, uncomfortable living conditions, murderous anti-American Muslims and go with joy to share the love and life of Christ where He is not known (Romans 15:20).
I also have a nonprofit IRS tax exempt organization for charitable contributions:
Dream-Maker Ministries
PO Box 684
Goldenrod, FL 32733
paypal.com - account is revivingnations@yahoo.com
Beyond a charitable contribution, you will receive a YouTube video from the country to which you send me to preach the gospel, hear testimonies of miracles as the Holy Spirit moves through me (because you sent me, so "through us") to uplift Christ and impart newness of life (Hebrews 2:4; Romans 8).
If everyone adopts a country in the 10/40 window to pray for the salvation of souls and the Word of God to go forth, I believe we can see disciples raised and churches planted throughout the countries in this unreached region of the earth.
Jesus came to seek and save the lost (Luke 19:10). What are we seeking and doing with our lives?
Adopt a nation and give birth to a spiritual legacy for generations and eternity, bringing souls into the kingdom of God.
Why should we repeatedly hear the good news of Christ (which we often take for granted) when so many have never heard it once?
When you all get to heaven and stand before Jesus and He asks you, "Why didn't you go overseas and preach the gospel?" What will be your excuse? Even the Mormons who don't have the Holy Spirit, neither the Word of truth go 2 years to proselytize the world with their doctrine of devils.
Mine is money - because I have need of funds to go, although I be willing to do so and have endless invitations to minister throughout the 10/40 window.
Or we can go together: "Here am I send me!" (Isaiah 6:8)

Cage Free Eggs Taste Better: Egg Producer Pleads Guilty to 10 Counts of Cruelty
Factory-farmed egg-laying hens, perhaps the most abused, exploited, and overlooked animals on the planet, finally got their day in court yesterday morning.
In a Lewiston, Maine courtroom on Monday, the owner of Quality Egg of New England (QENE), one of the largest egg producers in the nation, pleaded guilty to 10 civil counts of cruelty to animals. As part of a landmark civil settlement, stemming from a Mercy For Animals undercover investigation, the factory farm also agreed to pay over $130,000 in fines and restitution, as well as hand over authority to the state of Maine to conduct unannounced inspections of the factory farm for the next five years.
The settlement breaks new ground in the battle to protect farmed animals - leveling perhaps the largest financial penalty in United States history against a factory farm on grounds of animal cruelty.
The historic agreement is the result of a 2008-2009 MFA investigation at the factory farm, which exposed shocking cruelty to egg-laying hens, including:
* Workers and managers killing birds by grabbing their necks and swinging them around in circles - attempts to break their necks which often resulted in prolonged, torturous deaths for the hens.
* Supervisors and workers throwing live birds into trash cans.
* Birds suffering from broken bones, bloody open wounds, untreated infections and uterine prolapses.
* Hens confined four to six in tiny wire cages so small they were unable to stretch their wings, move freely or engage in other basic behaviors.
* Birds trapped in the wire of their cages or under the feeding trays without access to food or water.
* Rotting carcasses in cages with live hens still laying eggs for human consumption.
