“Isn’t it nice to know the FDA is really looking out for our good health… NOT! You can watch the expose video on aspartame Sweet Misery here.” Admin As reported before, aspartame has been shown time and again in studies (the ones not commissioned by the industry) to be bad for you. Now yet another new study, this one published in the journal Redox Biology, has concluded what lots of other research over the past decades has repeatedly shown — aspartame, the popular sweetener in over 6,000 grocery store items, including everything from soup mixes to carbonated beverages to chewing

Shortly after the diving accident, which left her a quadriplegic, Joni Eareckson Tada, found herself asking, “How could this be an answer to a prayer for a closer walk with you, God?” Joni did not let her questions drive her away from God; instead, they pushed her deeper into His embrace. The rich insights she has uncovered during the past forty years have sustained her for a lifetime of paralysis, convincing her that she’d rather be in her chair knowing Him, than on her feet without Him.

Oh, God, why must I continue to suffer in this dark valley? Why couldn’t this birth be easy? For the second time in my pregnancy, I battled premature labor. After 22 weeks, I endured surgery to close my cervix. Then I was confined to bed for three months. Spiritual battles intensified as the months progressed. My body was being pumped full of ineffective sedatives and contraction-ending drugs. My unborn baby was unresponsive, and my mental stamina eroded along with my physical state. Now, in my seventh month, I was alone in a dark hospital room. And terrified of the outcome.

Something brushed my hand and I stirred awake. There was my beloved Grandpa Kegg beside me. He was holding my hand. “Honey, wake up,” he said. I glanced around. I was in a hospital bed. What was happening? I felt panic until I looked at my grandfather’s face. He always made me feel better, no matter what. Family meant everything to me. I learned that growing up in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. I had love and support from my parents, my three brothers, and especially my grandfather. I believed Grandpa Kegg knew everything, and he didn’t mind a bit that I thought

Gravel crunched under the wheels of Mom’s car as we pulled into the stable driveway. I leaned out the window, searching the pasture for my best friend, Tialani. At school I was nobody. All the other kids had money and cool clothes. I wasn’t good enough to be their friend. But Tialani loved me. “Tia!” I called, climbing out of the car. Across the pasture, the little chocolate-brown Arabian whinnied and came running. “I wouldn’t have believed that if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes,” said Mom. “That horse came to you!” I pressed my cheek to her

It seemed that everyone in Texas who owned a horse competed in Play Days, but I had never tried. In our 22 years together, my horse, Wrangler, and I had participated in plenty of trail rides and parades. We’d even ridden in the Grand Entry at the Fort Worth Stock Show. But we’d never competed in skill and speed competitions, which was what Play Days were all about. “Have you ever considered joining the Wagon Wheel Saddle Club?” the veterinarian’s assistant asked one day after giving Wrangler a checkup. “A club that competes,” I said, looking at the flyer up

I Wish You Wouldn’t Look In My Closet by Jamie Buckingham “Something to ponder.” Admin I’m having a hard time enjoying my Filipino houseguest. Already his presence has upset my way of living- a way in which I have grown very comfortable. The alternatives are not pleasant; either get rid of him or change my way of living. I first met Aley Gonzalez three years before my first visit to the southernmost island of the Archipelago: Mindanao. An ex-boxer with more than a hundred professional fights under his bantam-weight-belt, this middle aged, tough-as-coconut- husk, brown-skinned Filipino was preaching like he fought

Dear Brethren, Over Memorial Day (2013) weekend I was scheduled to speak in Lake Havasu Arizona. Since Las Vegas was the closest major airport and by far the cheapest ticket, Gene and I flew there having planned to spend the first night upon our arrival somewhere in the area, then make the drive to the meeting the next day. After a four hour flight, some misunderstandings with the car rental agent, and a couple hours to get acclimated to the heat, we checked into our room without further incident. That night I had a dream. I dreamt I was standing

For the hundredth time I glanced over my shoulder on my way to work. The business quarter was full of men in suits carrying briefcases, women in tailored skirts and sensible shoes. It was the same crowd I moved among Monday through Friday, but this particular morning I sensed danger lurking at every turn. The night before I’d had a horrible dream, and I couldn’t seem to shrug it off. It wasn’t like me to be so fearful. I was in my 20s, doing administrative work in downtown New Orleans. The city had been experiencing a rise in violent crime,

Empty. No other word described how I felt. I’d lost the baby I’d carried for six months. Six months of planning for the daughter I’d named Angelica. The loss of the baby had been too much for my already rocky marriage, and my husband and I separated. Now there was just Jordan and me. My son was my pride and joy, but he was only three. How could he give me the comfort I needed so desperately? Jordan had looked forward to being a big brother, and I took him in my arms when I came home from the hospital.

Barking dogs jolted me out of a sound sleep. The clock read 1:23 a.m. Must be a raccoon outside, I thought, rolling over. Too bad the dogs are inside! I’d had a full day at work downtown before coming back to Dogwood Sport Horses, the breeding farm that my sister owned. When I came home I’d gotten the horses their nighttime rations and moved them into the pasture with a windbreak to shield them from the predicted cold. My work day was over. What could be the problem at this time of night? The dogs kept it up. Much as
