I stepped out of the work force 4yrs ago and then the screws were tightening. Health and Safety became #1 concerns as insurance premiums were soaring...regulation this...regulation that...but then again, this is California (you know, the place where the 'Peace and Freedom' hippies are still trying to grow up. lol)

Bet one can't ask about "Lifestyle: that might have an increased risk of adverse health issues.

Oh California, what a messy place, many of my own still love it, and  think it is the place of places to be.  I raised a family there. Some prosper there today  even, but for me, Wow  I hate to even visit there. I send my e-mails to my family there with the prolog, "From the free world".

Pretty pathetic but it's been happening for years in my opinion. I do think it has some to do with insurance but mainly I think it's for other reasons.

I believe that it's just discrimination.  I'm NOT talking about a 400 pound woman; I'm talking about women that are just overweight.  Men are held to a different standard, IMO.

I agree. Men are definitely held to a different standard. I don't feel like size should ever be allowed to be a factor. Hiring should be based upon work ethic/history, skill, and education.

 Is it okay at 375? 325? Will you  be willing to work beside a 300 pound woman? What is the number where your own discrimination might begin?

Fat Santa wants to know. Careful, you might get coal in your stocking.

It is not what is on the outside but what is on the inside. Where is her heart?

They do discriminate against men who are over 50.  If a company downsizes and men are laid off, on the management side they are usually over 50 and find it very difficult to get another job.  On reason is that they don't want to pay retirement benefits.

Everyone over 50 is discriminated against in the job world. It is very, very difficult to find a job that pays anything if you are over 50.

Its also becoming more common place that if any holds  a biblical ONLY view.  they DO NOT get hired.    THIS IS REAL and happening.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
