We all hear voices in our head. That's not what makes us crazy. What makes us crazy is listening to the wrong voices. God is speaking. Are you listening?

Reagan’s Words Still Speak Volumes Today | The Foundry: Conservative Policy News.
In October 1964, then spokesman Ronald Reagan stepped into the national political spotlight for the first time with his now-famous “A Time for Choosing Speech,” delivered in support of presidential candidate Barry Goldwater.
His words stand in stark contrast to those of many of America’s elected officials today, as this video by the Republican Study Committee shows.
In his speech, Reagan described the choice confronting Americans and laid out his own political philosophy:
This is the issue of this election: Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capitol can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves.
As Congress and President Barack Obama continue to expand government’s reach into American life, it’s worth looking back on Reagan’s speech and recalling his warning about a government that grows beyond its constitutional limits:
A government can’t control the economy without controlling people. And they know when a government sets out to do that, it must use force and coercion to achieve its purpose.
You can watch the entirety of Reagan’s speech here.

Andy Rooney said on '60 Minutes' a few weeks back:
Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you from driving to the ball game.
I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, which is why there are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU LISTENING MARTHA BURKE?
I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion.
I have the right 'NOT' to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird, or tick me off.
When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling; it is the Law of Probability.
I believe that if you are selling me a milkshake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact, if you want to be an American citizen, you should have to speak English!
My father and grandfather didn't die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours.
I think the police should have every right to shoot you if you threaten them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word 'freeze' or 'stop' in English, see the above lines..
I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or any other business.
We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms, so that decades later they could come over here and tell us our constitution is a living document and open to their interpretations.
I don't hate the rich; I don't pity the poor.
I know pro wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television. That doesn't stop you from watching them.
I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating system that's better, and put your name on the building.
It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the kid and say 'NO!' when necessary.
I think tattoos and piercings are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement. And, please, stay home until that new lip ring heals. I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me French fries!
I am sick of 'Political Correctness.' I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born inAfrica , so how can they be 'African-Americans'? Besides, Africa is a continent. I don't go around saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was from Europe.
I am proud to be from America and nowhere else.
And if you don't like my point of view, tough...
I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG,
OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR WHICH IT STANDS,
ONE NATION UNDER GOD,
INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY,
AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!
(So Andy Rooney didn't write this. That's OK with me. I have issues with him anyway.)

The Gulf Coast States
Even if you are not in one of the states along the Gulf, we're urging everyone across the nation to join with these states, asking for God's hand to be on all the decision-makers and lawmakers, that He would give them discernment and guidance, and that a solution would be forthcoming. I John 5:14-15 says, "Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him." Please join with these states in petitioning God for a quick work in the Gulf Coast Region!
VERIZON IS STEALING
High Speed Internet Support 1-800-567-6789
Today, I had a service technician at the home repairing a connection issue. While he was here I asked about the delivery of 3.0 Mbps that I am paying for. He informed me that my service ticket has me listed at 1.5 Mbps. I called to request a "change of service." They informed me that my lines are not "eligible" for more than 3.0.
What's my point? They are not telling anyone when we order our service that we cannot receive the high speed that we are paying for. They bill us and do not deliver the service.
VERIZON is immoral and cheap! They have no plans for upgrading their lines to deliver what they advertise.

War and Peace in 2010 -Word from the Lord through Ray Horton
There is a renewed confidence within the Kingdom, as the people of God are pressing in, drawing near to Him, growing hungry and being filled. The voices of prayer, the sounds of worship are everywhere, and the people of God will no longer be restrained by fear and apathy, strife and division, selfishness and complacency. The Lord says, will you trust me and live in my presence now?
They are rising up as a mighty army of love-struck prayer warriors who know their God, and live and serve in renewed hope. With strong faith and boldness, they are exposing and tearing down the fortresses of the enemy. The Lord says, will you love Me and serve Me now?
War and Peace together! The people of God are increasingly rising up and taking charge in this darkening world, a great light pushing back the darkness from engulfing the world. They are receiving and believing God’s Word, reinforced in their lives by prayer and worship, relying on the empowerment of the Holy Spirit to boldly obey the holy direction of our Father, peering into heaven to see what He is doing and saying. They are excited, but they are at peace. The Lord says, Will you be that light in the world?
And the devil doesn’t like it! Satan and all the powers of the air are getting desperate. They were defeated on the cross by our Lord Jesus Christ, who rose again to indwell all who would receive Him through the Holy Spirit, yes even the great mystery of the ages, Christ within us, the hope of glory.
The devil was defeated, but then he saw people who did not believe and receive the love of the Lord, people selfish and not living by the law of love, people divided and in strife, doing their own thing, people speaking the Name of the Lord but living by the flesh rather than the Spirit. And the enemy was emboldened, and by deception and confusion, he divided nations, he divided families, he divided churches, he divided hearts, he even divided people’s affection away from the God of love.
He has been not only the accuser of the brethren, but the accuser of God, saying “God is in control, and He will punish you,” saying “tragedies and disasters are acts of God,” undermining peoples trust and love of God, stealing the Word of Truth sowed in their hearts. In the last days, men’s hearts will grow cold. But why do they grow cold? Because they don’t know me and believe the lie. The Lord says, will you honor My Name and My character before the world?
God’s people are rising up and saying, “No more!” As we’ve learned to draw near and enter into His presence, we say, “No more!” As we’ve learned to seek Him first, gaining a renewed confidence in He who works within us, we say “No more!” In the Word and the Spirit, together, we boldly say, “No more!”
This is a new day, a new hour in eternity. As millions of believers have one by one stepped over the threshold of Kingdom life in these last few years of preparation, the choice has become clear, and they have chosen Life in the Spirit, which brings life, over life in the flesh, which brings death. And the scales have been tipped.
The Kingdom marches forward against seeming insurmountable odds. We believe for breakthrough! The time is here! “Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.” The Spirit of God is within us. We are being renewed and restored. Our new life, our light, will no longer be bottled up, but spread to those around us and to the four corners of the world.
The Lord is marching forth! Be awake and alert. The Lord is marching forth! Do not be left behind in this move of God. Chose life now, and you will not be disappointed. Press in; come before the presence of the Lord. A renewed faith will reign in your heart, and you will have a great peace that surpasses all understanding, even in the midst of war.
Do not fear the battle, but look around you at the great company you keep, multitudes of saints and hosts of angels, and “look unto Jesus,” the author and finisher of your faith.” The Lord says, “In the natural, one would look at Me, and die. But you are in the supernatural realm. You may look at Me and live, yes, live even the God life in this world.”
The Lord, the Overcomer, is in our midst. Forget the past and join in, for this is the day of success. “Consecrate yourself daily to my service. You are anointed today for victory. Do not let this day go by.” It is a time of war, but also a time of peace. So be encouraged! We win!
