EPHRAIM'S ARROW--JEWISH STUDIES


Weather By The Hour

Don't forget as you check on the weather to check in with the One who calms the storms!

 

Fields White To Harvest

 

 

Lord, I thought I knew you,

   but know the winds have changed.

Tossed away, will you find me?

   Can still , my heart be sustained?

Just me and you when things were new,

then the season's storms blew by.

   Did I forget to worship you?

 

Will you come, Lord Jesus to gather us- your sheep.

   For the days grow long and still,

If we watch and wait, will you hear us yet-

   Can we stand strong to do you will?

 

 The wheat has been blowing in that field,

   While the laborers are so few.

What then, now are we waiting for?

   Can hardened hearts become like new?

 

 Safely can we stay behind you,

   as we march with your trumpet sound?

Or- have we stayed and hid so long now,

   That our roots dry underground?

 

 I pray Lord that you will find me.

   I pray not to be ashamed.

I seek you when it's early Lord.

   I pray not to fall away.

 

So come Lord Jesus come quickly-

   The terrible day is at hand.

I pray we'll all be steadfast.

   So you may strengthen our spirits ,

as we stand.

Observations From Interview With A Mental Health Therapist On Common Core


"Interview with a Clinical Mental Health Therapist"--on YouTube -Excerpts on Common Core :

  • Risk of this type of approach could seriously set the mental health resilience of children back 50 years because the concept they advocate are opposed to the research used now.
  • Children are being taught to think and use words that have high emotional impact that gives biggest reaction creates anger, competition, resentment (negative).
  • Children's reasoning abilities won't be finished 'til age 24.  What is finished is their primitive part, the limbic system, part that engage when we feel threatened, shamed.
  • What we should be doing for children is not training them in the limbic system with emotionally charged activity.
  • Greatest fear with this curriculum is they are teaching children in the emotional activity part of the brain which doesn't think.  The person who is there most of their day is very emotionally reactive and will therefore be easily manipulated and all one has to do is trigger their fear, anger, resentment and they react because there is not great thought process there (it is fight or flight).  
  • The idea that students should get together and that group think is source of truth--a real problem as group think is extremely volatile.  Group think is extemely pressurizing and give great value to conformity than independence and individual thought.
  • We need to use the research we know and not ignore it or trash it as Common Core is doing as these facts are important to the teaching of children.
  • We will rear generation that is not just more vulnerable to emotional stress, emotional challenges but is very easily manipulated.  It just takes one trigger and you have a national mob-that is being motivated by anger and revenge-very easily manipulated.
  •  In contrast a generation that knows how to think independently--they are free because they aren't easily manipulated.  

Common Core can destroy our freedoms from within.  Please act--start by researching yourself and then ask your Pastors, Churches to share knowledge and may God help us all.
Mathew 18:6  But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in and cleave to me to stumble and sin-- who entices or hinders him in the right conduct or thought—it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be sunk in the depth of the sea.
Ezekiel 22:30 states: “And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall, and stand in the gap before ME for the land, that I should not destroy it; But I Found NONE…
Hopefully you will help and stand in the gap...please share that others will too.

The True Price of Common Core--Share, Cry, Get Mad, Pray And Then Act

I hope when you read this mother's story--you will let Sen Del Marsh (334) 242-7800 know that the true price of him setting aside SB403 will be paid for by our children.  That's a price I hope you tell him and all legislators you are not willing pay and Common Core must go!

"I took my twins (3rd grade) back to school today after the test was over and had to witness the most heartbreaking thing any mother facing this common core can endure..my son 8 yrs old with a learning dissability and who cannot keep up with this crap of ONE SIZE FITS ALL EDUCATION,just had an emotional breakdown in the lobby of his school...he HATES it there,he begs my everyday to not go,and I am forced to make his little head take in work that doesnt make sense to him,or to any child for that matter,my once HAPPY child,is now angry...he kicked his sneakers off threw them accross the lobby threw his lunch box,ripped off his sweatshirt,and headed for the front door of the building to RUN,to run away from a place he use to LOVE,the school psycologist had to grab him,walk him away from me down the hall with no shoes on,as he looked at me and cried hysterical...my heart cant take anymore of what these pieces of shit (pearson) are doing to my kid,and to all the kids that choose to hold it in,as my son has decided to get it out of his little system,and I feel so helpless,as I sit here and wait for a call from the school,to see how he is..I called 2x's and I get the psycologist voice mail."

When Alabama's Senator Del Marsh says "I have not had time to get my hands around it" and "it's not one of those bills that I had focused on this session"-- as justification to not allow a bill be voted on--parents should be wondering why not?   A bill that can prevent the horrific story above (coming out of a state that has been under Common Core longer than ours) can't be passed? 

One of the people Del Marsh is focused enough to listen to is Sup. of Ed. Tommy Bice who is misleading him and our state.  Tommy Bice is not telling the whole truth to the Legislature and citizens that the Alabama College and Career Ready Standards  that he says are "ours"-- are in fact the copyrighted Common Core State Standards with only the "allowable" Alabama specific Standards (max up to 15%).  Bottom line--Alabama parents Constitutional right over their children's education is being removed.

Another Tommy Bice wrong doing (and here we see the legislature reign him in) is when he reached in to disperse millions that were ear-marked for Alabama's Reading and Math Initiatives.  That tells you Tommy Bice can be wrong to the point of going past what he is "constitutionally" allowed to do. 

Common Core is wreaking havoc in states such as NY and Ga etc.  It would do our legislature good to heed the studious RNC and their Resolution to repeal Common Core. 1,539 NY Principals are outraged about its effects upon children and teachers (eval tied to tests).  Ga is trying to get out as they found it is a dumbing down.  Their Seniors reading requirements are at today's 7th grade level.  Math so confusing even accountant can't help child do elementay math. 

The biggest under-statement however was from Sen. Del Marsh when he said "I want to help on this common core issue", as he chose not to listen to Heritage Foundation sharing information that would have shed truth on it.  He failed to wrap his hands around the fact that this is not just any other issue.  

This is all about the most important issue to voters--their children and children should come first!  Michigan and Indiana have already realized that and their movement to stop it is succeeding and more states are putting their children first as they are realizing their mistake. Even though it cost Ga. an enormous amount of $$ they know their children and getting things done right are worth it.

 

Contrast the mother's story at the top with hearing that  Sen. Del Marsh walked out on hearing the truth about Common Core which implies a disregard for truth on what is affecting children. Please pray for the family above and others suffering.  Please continue to call Alabama Governor Bentley for us (334) 242-7100... and Senators Del Marsh and Jabo Waggoner to repeal Common Core (334) 242-7800.  Please also call House of Representatives at (334) 242-7600.  SB403 and HB565 needs your support.  Also please ask your US Rep. such as Martha Roby to defund Common Core!  Please share this and we request your prayers to our Almighty God that He would have mercy and grace upon us.

 

 

Then he replied to me, "This is this message from the LORD to Zerubbabel: 'Not by valor nor by strength, but only by my Spirit,' says the LORD of the Heavenly Armies.  Zechariah 4:6
