Angry at God? Give Thanks and Practice Patience to Gain Understanding
Angry at God?
If so, don't feel bad. I have been there before.
Yet sometimes God is justified in not giving us what we want. I say that for a number of reasons.
1. If you got what you want, it might destroy you.
2. When you get what you want, you may not want what you've got.
Often we lust and desperately yearn for something, which once we become more acquainted with we no longer like any more.
3. Your character and skill set may not be developed enough to properly handle what you most want.
I child may want a gun, but if he were to get it there is a strong likelihood he would kill himself.
I recently was shocked to hear of all the recent Toyota recalls on their popular cars and SUVs - particularly the avalon and Rav-4, both of which we nearly bought.
Thankfully the financing and terms were not pleasing to us and some minor contractual details were cause for delay in purchasing these vehicles.
Thank God! Thank God! Thank God we didn't buy Toyota!
Recently a massive recall of tens-of-thousands of these Toyota Avalons and Rav-4s (among other vehicles) has been going on because the gas peddle gets stuck and people cannot stop the vehicle. One man experienced his Toyota accelerating at up to 100 mph and couldn't stop the car when he attempted to put his foot on the brake.
So I say to you my friends who feel discouraged, disappointed and disillusioned - delay is not denial. God remains a good God and is looking out for you, having your best interest at heart.
"Let patience have her perfect work" (James 1:3) and reveal over time the pieces to the puzzle of your life ..."that you may be perfect and entire" [entirely equipped to live a victorious life:] and "wanting nothing."
Knowing that when we release what we require, God always fulfills above and beyond our innermost desire (see Ephesian 3:20).
Trust Him!
I nearly married a young lady to whom I was engaged, when suddenly the relationship fell apart and disintegrated.
At the time I was disappointed and disillusioned. Hey, love itself is often nothing more than lust and infatuation coupled with some internal illusions with exhuberant emotions. (More on that later...)
Yet when that young lady left my life, it opened the door for God to bring me the beautiful young lady (way better than the one who left) I am married to today!
Trust God. Go forward. Don't always seek closure on that which you don't understand.
"Happy is the man that finds wisdom, and the man that gets understanding. For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold." (Proverbs 3:13-14)
Make a decision to be happy, work diligently and expect God to work with you to perform miracles everyday!
"Don't be slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises [of God:]." (Hebrews 6:12)
As you do, God will show Himself strong to you today!

Health Care Questions for the President
Mr. President, how long will you allow the revolving door between Monsanto, the meat makers, big pharmaceutical companies and the FDA to continue to thwart the intended purpose of the FDA - to protect the American people?
Mr. President we have terrorists on our soil. It's called the FDA who purports to protect we the citizens, but continues to allow chemicals in our food, BPA in the packaging of our food, hormones in our meat and poultry and drugs with deadly side effects to remain available for consumption.
The FDA is a farce. What are you doing to deal with the terrorists within our country? They who genetically modify our seeds, produce, meat, fish, poultry, and pump deadly cancer causing chemicals into the very food we eat. As a President who claims he is interested in health care, when are you going to clean house at the FDA and rid our nation's food supply of the harmful contaminants killing our children, causing learning disabilities and causing us to be the most obese nation on earth?
How long will cow and chicken farmers dump their feces in our waterways, lakes and rivers?
The amount of chlorine needed to kill feces and bacteria in our nation's water supply is simultaneously weakening our own immunity, thwarting our health and causing disease.
What say you Mr. President for health care?

State of the Union - Division and Mis-Direction in the United States
"In this new decade, it's time the American people get a government that matches their decency; that embodies their strength." President Barak Obama
I have the utmost faith in my nation (moreso we the people), but foolishness, lies and fabrications from political parties and gov't agencies I have no respect for.
http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-o...
"It begins with our economy." Pres. Obama - FALSE
It begins with our health. God said in His Word that He "desires above all things that we be in health and prosper" (3 John 1:2).
Without good health no person, family or nation can prosper.
America is the most obese nation on earth. We have childhood diseases, learning disabilities and cancer appearing in people in their 20s and 30s (brain tumors, intestinal cancer, diabetes and other illnesses)as a result of the food we ingest daily.
Why? Because the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) is not doing its job allowing food manufacturers to pump food additives, chemicals, steroids, antibiotics and harmful substances such as excitotoxins into the food we as a nation eat.
Secondly the packaging of our food in plastics containing BPA causes breast and prostate cancer. I taught high-school seniors for an entire year and ate at the school cafeteria everyday. Without fail daily every meal was cooked and served in disposable plastic containers, neither good for the human body of our nation's youth nor the environment (as not one plastic container was ever recycled).
So while Americans spend less of their disposable income on food than most industrialized nations, as a consequence they spend more on pharmaceutical drugs, visiting doctors and being hospitalized to care for their malfunctioning bodies.
So we're opting for convenience that causes cancer, cripples and kills us. Such is not a prosperous nation no matter how much fan-fare, flag waving and fabrications are spoken of from the Presidential pulpit.
Thirdly, American intelligence agencies supposedly keeping our borders secure and nation safe have been bought out by the military-industrial-complex and foolishly fabricate information demonizing nations abroad and creating characters such as Bin Laden to keep we the people in fear so they can justify war without end.
Consider one example, a recent fabricated picture the FBI created of a purported Bin Laden, wherein it uses the face of a Latin American man.
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news...
The military-industrial-complex and American intel agencies fueling their fire and justifying war without end with fabrications and foolishness (such as "slam dunk" intel that preceded the second Iraq war) would do well to reinvent and relocate itself to impoverished, disaster stricken lands like Haiti, Somalia and less oil rich nations that are truly in a state of chaos and in need of their security. By doing so the military could continue to employ its service personnel, but put them to better use in devastated regions of the earth to serve in a security, peacekeeping and humanitarian capacity.
This simultaneously would restore the standing of the United States internationally and serve us well diplomatically.
"Our most urgent task upon taking office was to shore up the same banks that helped cause this crisis." Pres. Obama
Fourthly, our most urgent task, which we failed to perform ...was to stand strong and let the banks go bankrupt so the free market could eliminate those banks gambling with taxpayer dollars. The US gov't and FDIC should have taken over those banks entirely, not foolishly given banks blank checks for lavish vacations and CEO golden parachutes as they sought to escape scandle and bankruptcy.
Washington has always preferred corporate welfare over the general welfare of the American people. This must change! Otherwise expect another American Revolution and civil war with great societal unrest.
"But when I ran for President, I promised I wouldn't just do what was popular..." Pres. Obama
On the contrary Mr. President, you gave in to Wall Street (as did Pres. Bush) giving them a fat check and complied with the warmongers wanting to go into Afghanistan (without first pulling out of Iraq). To your defense Mr. President Afghanistan is a far better war to fight than Iraq. Yet as Senator McCain has said concerning war, "Go hard or go home!
This we should do in relation to Afghanistan - go hard and go into Pakistan, the stronghold of terrorism in the region which feeds Afghanistan. It is a known fact terrorists daily cross the Afghan and Pakistani borders. Why then are we giving Pakistan hundreds of millions of US dollars, but not aggressively entering that nation (where prime ministers are being murdered) to set that country in order and thereby rid Afghanistan of terrorists once and for all simultaneously? Redirect troops from Iraq to fully engage Pakistan and Afghanistan Mr. President.
Most importantly as a matter of national security what about our porous borders that continually are penetrated?
We have terrorists already living on our shores (Dearborn, Michigan is a breeding ground as are other suspicious mosques sprinkled throughout our country). Of course as I mentioned earlier one of the biggest terrorists (and most covert) is the FDA and food manufacturers daily killing us through our food supply.
To sustain economic growth you must make people take responsibility for their future, all of which begins with their own health. Before trying to provide health care to people without charge, let us make sure they have put down their cigarettes and alcohol and begun exercising to show good faith first.
Pull back excessive defense spending and proceed on your noble and most needed initiatives for the country such as:
- rebuilding our infrastructure and modes of transport
- clean-energy initiatives
- improving education
- reforming the corrupt insurance industry
- sealing and safeguarding our borders at home
- protecting the environment (waters and highways - which many litter on daily, especially smokers)
I believe you are the man for the job Mr. President, but you must begin by standing up to corporate crooks from Wall Street to lobbyists to greedy insurance companies cheating people and the military-industrial-complex bankrupting our nation with wars without end (none of which they ever win - as our own generals have said, pleading for a non-military directive and assistance ...which the State Dept continually fails to provide to caught up in providing cover for the CIA operatives working through its non-producing bureaucracy).
The U.S. State Dept should recruit faith based ministers and rabbis to spearhead humanitarian and educational initiatives in terrorist infested nations to reform murderous ideologies and mindsets that have for decades prevailed and gone without intelligent confrontation and discourse. In so doing they can simultaneously teach that God is not a killer, but rather a lover and life-giver. This would do far more for peace in the world than dropping more bombs and sending in more troops. Simultaneously it would save the United States trillions of dollars we don't have, nor should be going in debt for in the first place.
You have much to do Mr. President, but you need to pull back from overseas (with the exception of a needy Haiti) and focus / direct our national budget toward that which concerns us at home.
If the FDA wont' do it's job - shut it down to save us several hundred million more dollars and at least remove the facade of protecting the people so the consumer can become more alert before blindly consuming toxic and poisonous food.
We have terrorists at home, within our borders, supposedly serving the American people but in the pocket of corporate crooks.
What will you do about it Mr. President?

USAA Insurance Claims They Lost $451 million in Florida in 2009 and Must Raise My Premiums Monthly Nearly $50
True or false? An insurance company at the caliber of USAA losing money in Florida and continuing to do business in Florida? I seriously doubt they lost money, especially when they are trying to saddle another $50 a month in insurance premiums on me for covering my car, house and personal property.

Emotionally Unavailable Men - Men Who Won't Open Up
Emotionally unavailable men perplex and pain women throughout the earth. Beyond the allure of dating, women deeply and desperately want men to open up and be transparent with them.
Yet men often feel obligated to maintain the illusion of masculinity, which they sadly sometimes perceive to be a non-problematic life with an all-together front.
Ironically, what women often most want is a well-put-together man who also is not afraid to show and share his emotions.
Meanwhile men continue to cover up and conceal their emotions.
Sometimes men it has been said exchange intimacy for sex and women sex for intimacy. Yet until the sexes awaken to the two different wirings and wavelengths, relationally the tension, torment and disappointment shall continue.
What is the answer? Oil for the tin man.
As in the movie the Wizard of Oz, the tin man had need of a heart. Meanwhile all Dorothy could do was cry and wish to go home.
Ladies if your man is making you cry and appearing to be a bit of a heartless robot, send him to me for some oil to lubricate the relationship, resurrect your love life and bring some fresh fire forth from a man's perspective (with an understanding of women) to melt his heart.
Meanwhile ladies there too are things you can do to improve your game and get more of what you want out of your life and relationships.
Contact me to discuss how to unfreeze your man and deal with your own inner frustrations.

Leadership Success Secrets from a 7 y/o Boy Who Raises $240,000 for Haiti
http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/europe/...
Charley Simpson's efforts have been described as "bold" and "innovative" by Unicef's UK executive director.
He's no Wyclef Jean or George Clooney, but that hasn't stopped seven-year-old Charlie Simpson from raising more than £150,000 ($240,000) for the Haiti earthquake.
Simpson from Fulham, west London had hoped to raise just £500 for UNICEF's earthquake appeal by cycling eight kilometers (five miles)around a local park.
"My name is Charlie Simpson. I want to do a sponsored bike ride for Haiti because there was a big earthquake and loads of people have lost their lives," said Simpson on his JustGiving page, a fundraising site which launched his efforts.
"I want to make some money to buy food, water and tents for everyone in Haiti," he said.
Donate to Charlie Simpson's Haiti fund - http://www.justgiving.com/CharlieSimp...
Anyone desirous of going with me to Haiti, let me know at info @ PaulFDavis.com as I am still feeling after much prayer that February (not sure when in the month) is the ideal time for me personally to go.
Yet I'm undecided on the closest route (a Royal Caribbean ship to Labadee or Santo Domingo, Dom. Republic and drivng across ...).

Healthcare Speaker: Economics of Healthcare Speaker for Students and Adults
Warm greetings from sunny Florida!
I commend you for endeavoring to bring in an unbiased speaker and voice to discuss the economics of health care.
As someone who reads the Economist magazine and earned A's in micro and macro-economics in college, I believe the Bible which itself says "money answers all things" (Ecclesiastes 10:19). Truly there often is an economic motivation, at the very least mixed-motivation in many actions led by Washington and Wall Street.
As a former 12 grade teacher of ESOL to multi-racial students and a worldwide motivational speaker for colleges - it would be a joy to speak to your class.
I voted for both Pres. George W Bush and Pres. Obama, but disagreed with both for bailing out Wall Street banks and firms who mishandled citizens' and taxpayers' dollars. Truth be told, there is far more corporate welfare in America than welfare for the homeless and struggling families.
Since neither my parents, nor my wife and I have health insurance - I feel something needs to be done in the United States to reform health care. My Canadian wife gets free medical care for life back home, but in the U.S. we prefer waging war without end and spending our money in foreign theaters of war.
Given your appreciation for a "lighter side" presentation, my humor and fun approach makes education entertaining and enlivens any discussion.
Here are a few fun videos of me in India, New York, PA and Washington DC speaking.

I commend you for endeavoring to bring in an unbiased speaker and voice to discuss the economics of health care.
As someone who reads the Economist magazine and earned A's in micro and macro-economics in college, I believe the Bible which itself says "money answers all things" (Ecclesiastes 10:19). Truly there often is an economic motivation, at the very least mixed-motivation in many actions led by Washington and Wall Street.
As a former 12 grade teacher of ESOL to multi-racial students and a worldwide motivational speaker for colleges - it would be a joy to speak to your class.
I voted for both Pres. George W Bush and Pres. Obama, but disagreed with both for bailing out Wall Street banks and firms who mishandled citizens' and taxpayers' dollars. Truth be told, there is far more corporate welfare in America than welfare for the homeless and struggling families.
Since neither my parents, nor my wife and I have health insurance - I feel something needs to be done in the United States to reform health care. My Canadian wife gets free medical care for life back home, but in the U.S. we prefer waging war without end and spending our money in foreign theaters of war.
Given your appreciation for a "lighter side" presentation, my humor and fun approach makes education entertaining and enlivens any discussion.
Here are a few fun videos of me in India, New York, PA and Washington DC speaking.

Substance Abuse Prevention Speaker and Drunk Driving Victim Speaker
I grew up the son of an alcoholic and drug addict, who was either in one of four places: the bar getting drunk, jail for doing something stupid, an ER for drug overdose, or a mental ward for psychological evaluation.
My younger brother from my stepmom and dad ironically also battled substance abuse for 10 years which involved imprisonment.
To this day I don't drink, neither smoke, nor do I use drugs....having grown up with such drama all my life.
Sadly my U.S. Army Lt. Colonel grandfather (paternal) who raised me in the absence of my mother.....he was a functioning drunk, sneeking vodka bottles in his car and at 83 y/o when drinking vodka at 11:30am fell and hit his head at a convenience store, suffered a stroke thereafter within 24 hours and was bed ridden for two months before dying.
It was a sad way to go for such a loved man by his church, family and community.
Hence I am a heartfelt drunk-driving prevention speaker and substance abuse prevention speaker.

As a worldwide educator motivator and former high-school teacher, it would be an honor to inspire and empower your instructors, administrators and counselors.
I just had a wonderful time at the Florida Literacy Coalition speaking to educators there this past Saturday.
I am also the author of "Teacher Success & Survival Skills" a 272 page book soon going to print (visible on my website - www.PaulFDavis.com) birthed out of my many experiences as an educator and educator motivator worldwide.
I can serve as either an opening or closing keynote speaker on any of the focal points (and more) mentioned below:

When I was teaching I was located in the media center and worked closely with the high-school's technical head who oversaw many technical operations to keep the school administrators, teachers and students on the cutting edge and always diligently incorporated technology within the education.
I look forward to serving you and empowering the educators of your state for success!
