Side Business to Support Camp DePra
One of my patients, an experienced business man, introduced Becky and I to a business opportunity. I am always skeptical (and still am, a little) but after evaluating it carefully we decided to start. We've all been getting these calls to switch electric and natural gas providers after deregulation occurred. AMBIT ENERGY is the one of those companies. They have decided they want to be the best in the industry without sacrificing integrity. AMBIT provides a guaranteed savings of 2% in NY and 3% in PA (most often saving 6-8%) and a hard to believe referral system to get free energy by getting other people to switch. They also give reward points for trips - kind of like frequent flyer miles. NYSEG never gave me anything but a bill! It costs nothing to switch and there are no contracts. I have yet to find a catch or gimmick. Anyone interested in getting into this business or switching your electric and/or natural gas service, Please reply to this email. It seems too good to be true, but it really could be a once in a lifetime opportunity - like when your grandfather bought Coke stock for pennies or land for a dollar an acre. See the links below for more information.

Food for Thought...
I believe our nation is headed for very hard, even disastrous times. I do not believe politics will fix our economy - it's too far gone - too much debt to ever pay back. We depend completely on our fragile technological infrastructure for food, water, shelter, transportation, and entertainment. Any number of events could cause a sudden collapse of our system e.g., electric grid collapse from terrorism, natural event like solar flare, simple breakdown from lack of modernization, or Israel attacks Iran and the price of oil skyrockets, or China stops buying our treasury bonds. I am feeling called to prepare for such disaster by working to be less dependent and more self-sufficient. If you have interest in or questions about this line of thinking, please e-mail me by replying to this e-mail. Below are some of my favorite links:

Isaiah 55:6
Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near.
Isaiah tells us to call on the Lord while he is near. God is not planning to move away from us, but we often move far from him or erect a barrier between ourselves and him. Don't wait until you have drifted far away from God to seek him. Later in life turning to him may be far more difficult. Or God may come to judge the earth before you decide to turn to him. Seek God now, while you can, before it is too late.

Acts 8
8 And Saul approved of their killing him.
On that day a great persecution broke out against the church in Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. 2 Godly men buried Stephen and mourned deeply for him. 3 But Saul began to destroy the church. Going from house to house, he dragged off both men and women and put them in prison. Some people think they have done such horrible things in their lives that they are unforgivable and useless to God. They are listening to the lies of Satan. This Saul, who approved of Stephen's stoning and tried to destroy the church, was called by God and became Paul - the greatest evangelist who ever lived. It doesn't matter what you've done, God will forgive you and use you if you turn to Him. Being used by God to further His plans is our second most important purpose. The first is loving Him and being Loved by Him.
4 Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went. 5 Philip
went down to a city in Samaria (Remember that the Jews hated the Samarians) and proclaimed the Messiah there.
6 When the crowds heard Philip and saw the signs he performed, they all paid close attention to what he said. 7 For with shrieks, impure spirits came out of many, and many who were paralyzed or lame were healed. 8 So there was great joy in that city.
