UPDATE: Wolf Furry Mauled in Wyoming Says It Was ‘Just Misunderstanding’

Yellowstone officials have confirmed that the Colorado man who identified as a wolf furry and was severely injured earlier today after attempting to join a wild wolf pack has spoken out.

Speaking from his bed, still wearing what remained of his shredded gray faux-fur suit, the man insisted the wolves were “just establishing dominance” and that the attack was “more of a rough welcome hug.” He added, “I think I’m in. I’m gonna try again next month when they’re less hungry.”

Game wardens strongly discouraged the plan, noting that the pack had already been observed urinating on the man’s discarded tail, “which in wolf culture, is basically a restraining order.”

Locals are now taking bets on whether his next attempt will require another airlift or just a sturdy mop.

RIP to the Apalchee victims
39-year-old math teacher and assistant football coach Richard Aspinwall
53-year-old math teacher Christina Irimie
Two 14-year-old students, Christian Angulo and Mason Schermerhorn, who went to school and never came home.

When all any politician can say is 'senseless tragedy' repeatedly, that's all we hear every time this happens. AND IT KEEPS HAPPENING!!
How do we address the root causes of these shootings rather than just throwing a bandaid on it? Should we be blaming parents, schools, or guns? The FBI was notified about the shooter a YEAR ago for posting threats about shooting up a school when he was 13, yet nothing changed. How did a 14-year-old get out of his house with an AR-15 without anyone noticing? How did he walk down the school hallways with it sticking out of his bookbag and no one did anything? Something needs to be done to protect our children, regardless of political affiliation. I didn't even want to send my kids to school this morning. Generations before telling us to calm down, but this world is getting darker and it is hard to stay calm when you see innocent lives taken just for fun. Thoughts and prayers won't stop a bullet folks....

Faith is not a relationship with God. Faith is the connection to a relationship with God. In the book of Acts the Church was called "the Way, ( a walk) not the faith. I'm concerned that Christianity has become a philosophy to believe in instead of a Person we follow.

I'm concerned that we are making converts to Christianity that are not followers of Jesus. Christianity has often, historically not followed Jesus. Christianity has performed terrible atrocities's, started wars, oppressed women, encouraged slavery, and imprisoned its detractors. All these things that Christianity propagated were taught against by Jesus Christ Himself. He said love your enemies, pray for those persecute you, and he who slaps you on the right cheek give him your left cheek also. He was opposed to violence, loved people who didn't love Him, and forgave the people who crucified Him.

Jesus taught and lived the highest moral standard ever conceived by humanity. But nowadays people call themselves Christians and live however they want to. They entrench themselves in sin and yet insist that they are following Jesus. They may be Christians who acknowledge a belief system that they don't follow but their lifestyle bares no semblance to the life of Jesus.

Virtueless Christians and powerless believers are altering the definition of Christianity but they can't change the path of Jesus Christ. I am increasingly concerned about being identified as a Christian as defined in the 21st-century and by 2000 years of history. Yet I find myself more passionate about following Jesus than I've ever been in my entire life. I don't mind bearing the identity of being a fool for Christ. But I am resistant to being identified as a foolish Christian. The two are no longer synonymous.

After watching some of the testimony yesterday from the head of the Secret Service, two things are obvious:

1. This assassin was thoughtful, planned, and found an unsecured soft spot where he could take his kill shot.
2. The Secret Service became relaxed and unprofessional in what they specialize in: guarding and protecting. They knew the dangers and the threats.

Let us be reminded that our assassin, Satan, is also working to find a weak point in our spiritual security. All he needs is one shot to do his killing.

1 Peter 5:8
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

👉 Make sure your security is in place.
👉 Make sure those around you are guarding you.
👉 Stay humble, knowing it can happen to anyone at any time.

When you say goodbye to a parent, you are suddenly living in a whole new world.

You are no longer ‘the child’ and regardless of how long you have officially been ‘grown up’ for, you realise you actually never were until this moment. The shock of this adjustment will shake your very core.

When you have finally said goodbye to both your parents, assuming you were lucky enough to have had two. You are an orphan on this earth and that never, ever gets easier to take no matter how old and grey you are yourself and no matter how many children of your own you have.

You see, a part of your body is physically connected to the people that made it and also a part of your soul. When they no longer live, it is as if you are missing something practical that you need – like a finger or an arm. Because really, you are. You are missing your parent and that is something far more necessary than any limb.

And yet the connection is so strong it carries on somehow, no-one knows how exactly. But they are there. In some way, shape or form they are still guiding you if you listen closely enough. You can hear the words they would choose to say to you.

You can feel the warmth of their approval, their smile when a goal is achieved, their all-consuming love filling the air around you when a baby is born they haven’t met.

If you watch your children very closely you will see that they too have a connection with your parents long after they are gone. They will say things that resonate with you because it brings so many memories of the parent you are missing. They will carry on traits, thoughts and sometimes they will even see them in their dreams.

This is not something we can explain.

Love is a very mystical and wondrous entity.

It is far better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all and grief, grief is the price of that love. The deeper the love the stronger the grief.

When you say goodbye to a parent, do not forget to connect with that little girl who still lives inside you somewhere.

Take very good care of her, for she, she will be alone and scared.

When you say goodbye to your parents, you lose an identity, a place in the world. When the people who put you on this earth are no longer here, it changes everything.

Look after yourself the way they looked after you and listen out for them when you need it the most.

They never really leave.

- Donna Ashworth

“A rattlesnake bit one of my sheep in the face about a week ago. Deadliest snake that lives around here. The sheep’s face swelled up and hurt her terribly.
But the old rattlesnake didn't know the kind of blood that flows through the sheep. Anti-venom is most often made from sheep's blood. The sheep swelled for about 2 days but the blood of the lamb destroyed the venom of the serpent.
I was worried but the sheep didn't care. She kept on eating, kept on drinking and kept on climbing because she knew she was alright.
Don't worry about the serpent or his bite, just make sure that the Lamb's Blood is flowing through your veins.”

The reason so many Christians are struggling is because they haven’t believed the love God has for them.

They have mentally assent to it.

They talk about it in church.

But deep down, they’re not sure of it.

They’re still being tormented by guilt and condemnation.

The Last Battle

If it should be that I grow weak,
And pain should keep me from my sleep,
Then you must do what must be done,
For this last battle cannot be won.
You will be sad, I understand;
Don't let your grief then stay your hand.
For this day more than all the rest,
Your love for me must stand the test.
We've had so many happy years -
What is to come can hold no fears.
You'd not want me to suffer so;
The time has come, so let me go.
Take me where my needs they'll tend
And please stay with me until the end.
Hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.
I know in time that you will see
The kindness that you did for me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I've been saved.
Please do not grieve - it must be you
Who had this painful thing to do.
We've been so close, we two, these years -
Don't let your heart hold back its tears.
— feeling sad.

I wish I was the one who wrote this. May it minister to every one of you that takes the time to read it. You are a work in progress, a masterpiece in the making. And oh, so precious to God. ❤️

Me: Hello God.
God: Hello...

Me: I'm falling apart. Can you put me back together?
God: I'd rather not.

Me: Why?
God: Because you're not a puzzle.

Me: What about all the pieces of my life that fall to the ground?
God: Leave them there for a while. They fell for a reason. Let them be there for a while and then decide if you need to get any of those pieces back.

Me: You don't understand! I'm breaking apart!
God: No, you don't understand. You're
transcending, evolving. What you feel are growing pains. You're getting rid of the things and people in your life that are holding you back. The pieces are not falling down. The pieces are putting in place. Relax. Take a deep breath and let those things you no longer need fall down. Stop clinging to pieces that are no longer for you. Let them fall. Let them go.

Me: Once I start doing that, what will I have left?
God: Only the best pieces of you.

Me: I'm afraid to change.
God: I keep telling you: YOU'RE NOT CHANGING! YOU'RE BECOMING!

Me: Becoming, Who?
God: Becoming who I created you to be! A person of light, love, charity, hope, courage, joy, mercy, grace and compassion. I made you for so much more than those shallow pieces you decided to adorn yourself with and that you cling to with so much greed and fear. Let those things fall off you. I love you! Don't change! Become! Don't change! Become! Become who I want you to be, who I created. I'm gonna keep telling you this until you remember.

Me: There goes another piece.
God: Yes. Let it be like this.

Me: So... I'm not broken?
God: No, but you're breaking the darkness, like dawn. It's a new day. Become!! Become who you really are!!
