The photo images shown below were captured from NASA satellite sources, they are truly alarming. These images provide&nbsp;shocking and undeniable proof of the ongoing global climate engineering/geoengineering/solar radiation management assault on our planet and its life support systems. Highly toxic heavy metals and chemicals (that are systematically sprayed into our atmosphere from jet aircraft as part of the geoengineering/SRM programs) are manipulated with extremely powerful&nbsp;radio frequency signals. These signals&nbsp;are&nbsp;transmitted from countless locations around the globe from various types&nbsp;of transmission platforms (ionosphere heater installations like HAARP, SBX radar, NEXRAD, etc.). The impact of the microwave transmissions on cloud formations is profound and highly visible (<a href="http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/is-climate-engineering-real-square-cloud-formations-are-undeniable-proof/" style="font-size: 13px; color: rgb(6, 86, 177); font-weight: normal;">square cloud formations are created under some scenarios</a>).&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-bottom: 20px; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(27, 40, 55); font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;">In the series of NASA satellite images below, many variances of radio frequency cloud impacts can be observed. The degree to which the ongoing climate engineering/climate/intervention/weather warfare is disrupting Earth&#39;s atmosphere and life support systems is&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yZhh2leRJA" style="font-size: 13px;

font-size: 13px; color: rgb(27, 40, 55); font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;">Hurricane suppression/manipulation is one aspect/agenda of the climate engineers. 85% of the hurricanes that impact the US originate from Africa. Low pressure systems migrate toward the west, off of Africa&#39;s&nbsp;coast. A great deal of climate engineering/intervention takes place in this region, thus a number of the satellite images shown in this post&nbsp;were captured there. In the attempt to mask the climate intervention activity, the cyclone suppression occurring off the coast of Africa is officially blamed on &quot;dust&quot;. Of course there is no acknowledgement of the ongoing climate engineering atrocities.&nbsp;The quote below is an&nbsp;<a href="http://www.fox9.com/weather/weather-blog/2453971-story" style="font-size: 13px; color: rgb(6, 86, 177); font-weight: normal;">excerpt from a FOX news article</a>.</p><blockquote style="margin: 20px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 9px; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-style: italic; font-weight: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><p style="margin-bottom: 20px; font-size: 13px;"><em style="font-size: 13px;">Right now, much of the Gulf of Mexico and parts of the Caribbean have slightly warmer than normal ocean temperatures which would normally aid in tropical development. But there is so much dust and dry air in the atmosphere that storms are getting choked off before they even get started.</em></p></blockquote><p style="margin-bottom: 20px; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(27, 40, 55); font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"><a href="http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/GeoengineeringWatch.org-120.png" style="font-size: 13px; color: rgb(6, 86, 177); font-weight: normal;"><img alt="geoengineeringwatch-org-120" height="199" src="http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/GeoengineeringWatch.org-120-450x199.png" style="margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; font-size: 13px;" width="450"></a></p><p style="margin-bottom: 20px; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(27, 40, 55); font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;">Though some may feel that cyclone suppression is beneficial, such interference with Earth&#39;s natural rhythms and systems has a long list of catastrophic downstream effects. Available data indicates that in other scenarios&nbsp;the climate engineers are actually augmenting and steering cyclones to serve their own agenda.&nbsp;<a href="http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/hurricane-matthew-the-latest-example-of-global-weather-warfare-desperation/" style="font-size: 13px; color: rgb(6, 86, 177); font-weight: normal;">&quot;Hurricane Matthew&quot; may be an&nbsp;example of weather warfare on an unimaginable scale</a>.&nbsp;Is hurricane Matthew being heavily manipulated and steered by the climate engineers? The evidence continues to stack up. Below is a satellite photo clearly showing atmospheric &quot;waves&quot; surrounding hurricane Matthew.&nbsp;<a href="http://spaceweather.com/" style="font-size: 13px; color: rgb(6, 86, 177); font-weight: normal;">SpaceWeather.com</a>&nbsp;has labeled these as &quot;gravity waves&quot;, but is that what&nbsp;these visible &quot;waves&quot; actually are? The satellite photos already shown&nbsp;in this post inarguably reveal heavy atmospheric manipulation from extremely powerful radio frequency/microwave transmissions and atmospheric aerosols. These transmissions leave a signature pattern on high level cloud formations that are saturated with electrically conductive heavy metal nanoparticles which&nbsp;are dispersed from jet aircraft as part of the ongoing climate engineering insanity.</p><p style="margin-bottom: 20px; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(27, 40, 55); font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"><a href="http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/78k.png" style="font-size: 13px; color: rgb(6, 86, 177); font-weight: normal;"><img alt="78k" height="387" src="http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/78k-450x387.png" style="margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; font-size: 13px;" width="450"></a></p><p style="margin-bottom: 20px; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(27, 40, 55); font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-align: center;"><em style="font-size: 13px;">Does the photo above really show &quot;gravity waves&quot; surrounding hurricane Matthew? Or does it show the signiture pattern of extremely powerful radio frequency/microwave&nbsp;transmissions interacting with aircraft dispersed atmospheric aerosols? Both of these elements&nbsp;are a core part of climate and storm manipulation and steering. Photo: SpaceWeather.com</em></p><p style="margin-bottom: 20px; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(27, 40, 55); font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;">The global power structure long ago made the choice to subject our planet (and the entire web of life that it supports, including the human race) to an unimaginably massive and destructive climate intervention/weather warfare assault. This decision was made without the knowledge or consent of global populations. If we stand by and allow the decimation from the climate engineering insanity to continue, very soon Earth&#39;s life support systems will be&nbsp;beyond any recovery.

	<title><![CDATA[&quot;The flight from duty is the sacrifice of truth.&quot;]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>Those who have seen The Light have the responsibility and the great privilege to share it. Why hide your truth because of fear, shame or foolish pride? A world without &quot;Light-Bearers&quot; is a world in darkness.&nbsp;</span></p><p><span>A path has no meaning unless you walk it. Your truth will die quickly unless you talk it. As we take a moment to reflect and remember the life our Master lived, we see how He walked the walk and talked the talk. In following His awesome example we can and will make this world a better place.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
I pray that we all find the courage to be truly Spirit-Led as we continue forward on our Journey.&nbsp;</span></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Go To God! ~ A Message from Antoinette Rootsdawtah]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>I love to use the phrase &ldquo;Go to God, He can solve all your problems.&rdquo; I don&#39;t necessarily mean he&#39;s going to snap his fingers and it&#39;s done, but our Indwelling Spirit will always show us the Right Way to go about things.</span></p><p><span>Pato tells the people at some of his shows, to &ldquo;turn off the iPhone, the iPad, the iThis and the iThat and tune into the Father&rdquo;. Once you do that even for 5 minutes or an hour, you&#39;ll realize that everything is gonna be all right. The more I go to God, the more I realize the bigger picture, how things work, how they will work out, how I can make things change for myself or my environment, community etc, by realizing situations of plans a, b and c and acting upon them. So I say &ldquo;Go to God&rdquo; because the more you go to God, the more you&#39;ll realize you&#39;re not alone and He will bring you that Inner Peace and Assurance.</span></p><p><span>&quot;But the greatest of all methods of problem solving I have learned from Jesus, your Master. I refer to that which he so consistently practices, and which he has so faithfully taught you, the isolation of worshipful meditation. In this habit of Jesus&rsquo; going off so frequently by himself to commune with the Father in heaven is to be found the technique, not only of gathering strength and wisdom for the ordinary conflicts of living, but also of appropriating the energy for the solution of the higher problems of a moral and spiritual nature.&quot; Paper&nbsp;160:1.10</span></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Mistakes are natural.]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 14px; font-style: normal;">Mistakes are natural. We all make bad decisions sometimes and some of us beat ourselves up badly when we realize we could have done better. (including me) But we have a long future ahead of us and we can use past mistakes as lessons to help us make better and wiser decisions in the future. So if you&#39;re dragging something from your past around like a big bag of dirty laundry, let it go! Recognize the lessons, forgive yourself and move on.&nbsp;</span><span style="vertical-align: middle; margin-right: 1px; margin-left: 1px; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 14px; font-style: normal;" title="heart emoticon"><img alt="" height="16" src="https://www.facebook.com/images/emoji.php/v9/f6e/3/16/2764.png" style="vertical-align: -3px;" width="16"><span style="font-size: 0px;">&lt;3</span></span></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[War &amp; Peace]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 36px;"><span style="color: #B22222;">War</span> &amp; <span style="color: #3399ff;">Peace</span>&nbsp;</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 28px;"><img alt="" height="36" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-arch-01.png" width="560"></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 28px;"><img alt="" height="1947" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/3571/master/" width="2859"></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 28px;"><img alt="" height="111" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-00-break-c.png" width="1000"></span></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>From the abundance of the heart spring the issues of life and not scripture. The self deceived heart may endeavour to make its foul intentions acceptable by wrapping them up in the righteousness of scripture but excrement wrapped in gold is still excrement. To dress one&rsquo;s evil intentions up in the words of scripture is to come as a wolf in sheep&rsquo;s clothing. The shallow are fooled by such pretence; are content with the surface of things, with the&nbsp;<em>appearance</em>&nbsp;of wealth, nobility, culture, education, but never dare to venture below the surface. They clamour for conformity and revile the individual, revile the prophets that dare to pierce the fa&ccedil;ade and expose the rottenness within. They are the children of the shadows and not the light.</p><p>War has never been fought for a noble cause. Not once. Not ever. The roots of war are to be found in the bestial and self deceived human heart. Have you ever noticed how those who are quick to violence are even quicker to justify themselves and their actions? Fast, indeed, is the fist but faster still is the hate filled heart. But pause for a moment and consider deeply what they say and soon you will discern the disingenuous nature of their words and the wretched stench of hypocrisy.&nbsp;<em>Is there not something to be learned from the fact that those who love violence will act on the slightest excuse, while those that love peace can find nothing that will justify violence against a brother?</em></p><p>Violence, be it between brothers or nations, is always about domination and control &ndash; the very antithesis of the ideals of spiritual living which are service and love. The waging of war then, being rooted in the flesh, can never be a service to God [who is spirit] it is, moreover the waging of grievous sin.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="243" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/3570/master/" width="469"></p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="82" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/3569/master/" width="434"></p><p>The call to WAR is always subterfuge; it is, without exception, a lie. No one would send their children off to war if they knew the real reasons behind them. War is merely a game played by the super rich, a game which reduces our homes and cities to ash and in which our children&rsquo;s lives are thrown out like chips on a poker table. The great irony is that real, behind-the-scenes, players never get harmed, they just get richer.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="2381" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/3572/master/" width="3175"></p><p>As the man that is given to violence readily deceives himself that his actions are righteous, even so do the leaders of nations summon their army of soothsayers [the media] and &lsquo;prophets-for-hire&rsquo; [experts] to lead the nation&rsquo;s children into war. So strong is the spell cast by these fiends that that the nation&rsquo;s children volunteer to lay down their lives for &ldquo;this noble cause&rdquo; and when these children return home &ndash; dead, or worse than dead, wrapped in a flag their parents weep proudly at the nobility of their sacrifice, all the while blind to the real tragedy &ndash; that they died, and continue to die, for nothing more noble than ensuring rich men can have a bigger pools and more private jets. They have become the unwitting instruments of thieves and long distance murderers. The cognitive dissonance generated by this calumny is profound. Is it any wonder that people have a hard time accepting truth when it is so at variance with the vision they hold dear to their hearts, when it reveals them to be worse than fools? Who has the stomach for that?</p><p>These so-called leaders are creatures of negotiable virtue; moral chameleons, appearing as creatures of light when they walk among the noble and as creatures of night when among the children of the shadows. They know well that we would not send our children to die in the service of ignoble men &ndash; to die so that these soulless, black hearted, wretched excuses for humanity can attempt to fill their bottomless pockets but there&rsquo;s a lot, an awful lot, of money to be made. They have no compunctions whatsoever about trading blood for diamonds, gold, land, and oil&hellip;well, once it&rsquo;s not their blood that gets spilled. But when you already own the media and the government and you are safely ensconced behind an impenetrable wall of money and power you need not worry too much about what people think. After all, you have enough money to make sure people [the vast majority of them anyway] think what you want them to think.</p><p>For the Hawks of War FEAR is everything. It is for this reason that the media constantly fosters anxiety; a couple of well placed bangs and you can be reasonably assured that the sheep will race off in the desired direction.</p><p>However, the Prophets-for-Higher &ndash; the prophets of peace, equality, justice, fairness, integrity, honesty, of social responsibility and service, who are the very destroyers of fear are a source of endless torment for the hawks. The Prophets-for-Higher, the passionate advocates of higher and better ways, always end up condemning and exposing the weakness of the version of reality being peddled by the hawks. They are tirelessly dedicated to highlighting the bankruptcy of the current system and the insanity of attempting to maintain such doomed systems, even going so far as to proclaim that better ways are not only preferable but actually possible and, in the long run, far less costly! The prophets come to a weary, desperate, and fearful generation preaching words of hope, consolation, and healing and for this service they are castigated, vilified, ridiculed, beaten, imprisoned, tortured, and murdered. The hawks are jealous gods.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="85" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/3565/master/" width="588"></p><p>Indeed, what could be worse for the hawks of war than for the people to become truly enamoured with the idea that we are one family on one earth and that we should love and care for one another and that we should establish systems that foster such ideals?</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-01-thin-shadow.png"></p><p><strong>For the hawks FEAR is the only reality.</strong></p><p>They cling to FEAR as though it were life itself, as though it were salvation. To reject or discountenance it is heresy, insanity, even suicide! Their world cannot exist without it and that is why the elimination of fear is the first step to a better world. Indeed, the first duty of all spiritual leaders should be to liberate their fellows from the fetters of fear; to teach people not to be afraid, loose them from the shackles of fear and establish them on the path to liberty which is faith, for a better world is not possible without faith.</p><p>When our choices are based on fear we are the bondservants of fear [the flesh] and become locked in a cycle of Doom and Destruction. When we dare to make the choice of faith [become enthused by a vision of a better world] we affirm for the world our liberty from the shackles of fear and establish ourselves on the way of Hope and Healing.</p><p>When the Prophets-for-Higher come the hawks rush to rattle the cages and attempt to set the world on edge &ndash; filling it with fear: white afraid of black, black afraid of white, old fearful of the young, the young contemptible of the old, the wealthy in dread of the great unwashed, the great unwashed resentful of the wealthy. The world becomes infused with mistrust, suspicion, and paranoia. Trust no one, they say,&nbsp;<em>except</em>&nbsp;US. They, the very one&rsquo;s that have created, fostered, and promoted this constant state of fearful anxiety, claim to know the way to brighter and better tomorrows. All our woes, they say, have their roots in X [insert appropriate outsider &lsquo;HERE&rsquo;]. Destroy X, it is claimed, and our troubles will melt away. Violence and war, these are the instruments wherewith we shall build enduring peace!</p><p>The Prince of Peace spoke of these fools before and named their sin: &ldquo;They say that which is good but they do it not!&rdquo; and warned us not to pattern after their works, lest we follow them into the pit [imagine the fate of Israel at the hands of the Romans but on a global scale].</p><p>The Prince of Peace came proclaiming peace on earth and good will toward all men and preaching the glad tidings that we are all one family, the children of the Almighty One, and that the rule of this family is simple: Love.</p><p>Indeed, what could be worse for the hawks of war than for the people to become truly enamoured with the idea that we are one family on one earth and that we should love and care for one another and even that we should establish systems that foster and promote such ideals? What could be worse for the hawks than for the people to discover that fear is an illusion which robs them of peace, joy, and hope and that peace, joy, and hope were within easy reach through faith, fellowship, and service?</p><p>The spiritual ideals of the divine family can illuminate a better way for us. Love is the law of the divine Kin-Dom and service is its lifeblood. In the ideal family the strong protect and nurture the vulnerable, and abundance is used to nourish the whole family, not just the chosen few. Those that cannot abide by such ideals are little better than beasts, craving a world where savagery is rewarded and the strong are allowed to prey upon the vulnerable.<br />
<br />
Between the Savage and the Sage there lies a long road, from the darkness of ignorance, fear, control, and domination to the light of wisdom, faith, love, and service. What&rsquo;s it going to be? Will we yield to fear and the darkness within or will we take up faith and follow the light of a better way, a better world?</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="400" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/3568/master/" width="400"></p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="523" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/3593/master/" width="960"></p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-00-break-c.png"></p><div>&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[In God, a Spider&#039;s Web is Stronger than a Brick Wall]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[
<p>During World War 2, a soldier was separated from his unit on an island.</p>

<p>The fighting had been intense, and in the smoke and the crossfire he had lost touch with his comrades.</p>

<p>Alone in the jungle, he could hear enemy soldiers coming in his direction.<br />Scrambling for cover, he found his way up a high ridge to several small caves in the rock. Quickly he crawled inside one of the caves.</p>

<p>Although safe for the moment, he realised that once the enemy soldiers looking for him swept up the ridge, they would quickly search all the caves and he would be killed.</p>

<p>As he waited, he prayed, "Lord, please spare my life. Whatever will happen, I love you and trust you. Amen."</p>

<p>After praying, he lay quietly listening to the enemy begin to draw close.</p>

<p>He thought, "Well, I guess the Lord isn't going to help me out of this one."</p>

<p>Then he saw a spider begin to build a web over the front of his cave.</p>

<p>"Hah" he thought, "What I need is a brick wall and what the Lord has sent me is a spider web. God does have a sense of humour."</p>

<p>As the enemy drew closer he watched from the darkness of his hide out and could see them searching one cave after another.</p>

<p>As they came to his, he got ready to make his last stand, but then he heard the leader of the soldiers say:</p>

<p>"you may as well ignore looking in this cave ...if he had entered here this web would be broken!" So they left and he was delivered!</p>

<p>To his amazement, however, after glancing in the direction of his cave, they moved on.</p>

<p>Suddenly he realised that with the spider web over the entrance, his cave looked as if no one had entered for quite a while.</p>

<p>"Lord, forgive me," he prayed. "I had forgotten that in you a spider's web is stronger than a brick wall. He will use the most foolish things in this world to confound the wise!</p>

<p>God is your protector, if you believe in him.</p>
