As empty nest baby boomers, we tend to eat out more often. Being a financial-kinda guy, I pay close attention to prices and value. New menus reflect higher prices. What was 9.99 is now 10.99. Once coffee, tea, and soft drinks break the $2 barrier here in the southwest, it really gets my attention. After all, we are not in New York City. Food prices are up and for the average middle-class family it is noticeable to the budget. The top 1% don’t care since it is such a small part of their cash outflow. Since we know all of the financial markets are being manipulated, we must persevere in the short term until the truth is fully exposed for all to see. Those who are manipulating the markets are doing everything in their power to manipulate us into compliance to their agenda. As we move toward the end of the manipulation, I expect them to become desperate and attempt a takedown of physical asset prices, specifically gold and silver. The offset to this will be the kings of the East who hope physical assets get cheaper so they can load up by spending their dollars. That threat is what is currently providing a price base for assets such as gold and silver.
Those of us who are serious about doing Our Heavenly Father’s will should pursue unity among the brethren. If we stay isolated from each other we cannot be a body, fitly joined together. We must come into agreement. Set aside your focus on the imperfections of others and instead look at them as Our Heavenly Father sees them. None of us are infallible. Focus on embracing their purpose rather than criticizing their errors. Deal with your own error and the Body of Christ will be strengthened. Focus on Love. As we all do, we will bring the Kingdom here on earth.
