We the People of Johnson County Missouri Wednesday, December 18, 2024 🤔 WHO Can Help Us???
Hi Folks!
We’ve talked about the Speaker of the House issue of Jon Patterson v. Justin Sparks, and I just listened to Justin Sparks on this link. His presentation starts at about 15:51 of the video.
Here are my take-aways -
His presentation is very sincere and straight-forward.
From what he says, it seems he lives his life by prayer and God’s guidance.
The current House Rules allow the House Speaker TOTAL CONTROL over what bills DO or DO NOT come to the floor to be heard. That does NOT allow the voices of the people of Missouri to be heard!!!!
These rules give POWER to the LOBBYISTS in a Pay-to-Play system!!! WHAAAAAAT!!!? That is NOT what our government is elected to do. BUT THEY’RE DOING IT.
Jon Patterson is a “moderate” conservative as opposed to a STRONG conservative. He voted against the SAFE Act (which blocked puberty blockers and surgery for children who think they might be trans), he STOPPED House members from providing a NON-ABORTION Bill as an alternative to Amendment 3 last year, and to date has said nothing against the passage of Amendment 3. He calls it, “The Law of the Land.”
OK….did you catch the part in the last bullet that said, “He STOPPED grown men who were ELECTED TO REPRESENT US, from proposing a NON-ABORTION amendment that WOULD REPRESENT THE MAJORITY of us…”?
Here’s the definition of TYRANNY given by Merriam-Webster: “oppressive power, especially oppressive power exerted by GOVERNMENT.
Hm. Sounding familiar….?
I sent our Representative-Elect of the 54th District, Brandon Phelps, a request to vote for Justin Sparks for Speaker of the House. He kindly responded, thanking me for my thoughts.
Folks, I wish and pray to be wiser! But I’m only what I am. Here’s what I know however…The Lord, my God is WITH me.
He is MIGHTY to save.
He takes great delight in me and all those who belong to Him.
He quiets me with His LOVE.
He REJOICES over me with singing. Zeph 3:17.
THAT is helpful to know to the absolute DEPTHS of my heart!!!!!
Here’s what I sometimes do: I get SO tied up with trying to MAKE what I believe is the right thing to happen, HAPPEN!!!!
I TELL God to PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN!!! I ask people I know to contact their Representative/Senator and make sure THEY try to make it happen! I think about it and think about it and THINK ABOUT ways to MAKE IT HAPPEN!!! I sometimes drive people around me NUTS trying to work out a PLAN to MAKE IT HAPPEN! (Ask Jerry about that if you don’t believe me….😕) Then I come BACK to God and say, “Don’t you hear me???? I feel You urging me this direction, but what am I supposed to DO to make this HAPPEN????”
God: (Quiet pause) Rachel, I LOVE you. I haven’t forgotten you. I haven’t forgotten what’s happening in your life. I haven’t forgotten what I’ve asked you to do. Remember WHO I am…?
Me: (Trying to quiet the dust bowl I’ve stirred up via my tornado of activity) Oh. But God, I’m YOUR SERVANT!!! What ELSE do I need to do to MAKE SURE THIS THING HAPPENS?!?!?
God: Rachel. You’ve turned this “thing” into an idol. You’re thinking more about IT than you are turning to Me with PRAISE & THANKSGIVING for My constant attending to you….to your life on earth…to your loved ones…to your home…to We the People.
Me: (Sinking down into nearest chair to hush myself.) Ohhhhhh.
God: Zeph 3:17, my Sweetie. The LORD, YOUR GOD….ME, is WITH YOU. CONSTANTLY. REMEMBER Who I am. I am MIGHTY TO SAVE. I take DELIGHT in YOU and ALL My children!!! DELIGHT, Rachel!!! Let me QUIET you with My LOVE. Be STILL while I REJOICE OVER YOU with SINGING!!!!!
BE STILL, and KNOW that I am GOD.
Me: (Dead air, other than quieted breathing and reaching for a tissue.)
God: (Stillness. Patient waiting…)
Me: My Precious God. HELP ME REMEMBER WHO YOU are: Wonderful. Counselor. MIGHTY GOD. The One I worship. Everlasting Father. Prince of Peace. Jehovah Jireh…my Provider…ALWAYS.
God: BE in PEACE, my soldier. I KNOW AND HEAR YOUR PRAYERS. LET ME BE IN CHARGE. When I need you to act, I’ll let you know. Your job is to stay close to Me.
SO.
I ask you to check in with God to see if He wants you to do something on this. Or whatever else you’re dealing with. HE’s the One Who will tell you the TRUTH. If you want to contact your Representative it’s kind of hard right now. Dan Houx’ number, is currently in kind of lame-duck mode because he’s leaving, so it’s been reassigned to Brandon Phelps, however, Dan’s recording is still what answers the phone. That number is: 573.751.3850, and you can leave a message.
I don’t think Dan will vote on the next Speaker, since he is being replaced with Brandon. If you have email/cell or other contact info on Brandon, this in-between time would be a good time to use it. Contact your township RCC (Republican Central Committee) member, and ask them to convey your message to Brandon. If you don’t know who your township RCC committeeman/woman is, I’ll put that below. Several different county RCC’s have written letters in support of Justin Sparks, so you can request/encourage that of your RCC committeeman/woman, too.
I know some folks don’t really know what the responsibilities of your JCRCC (Johnson County Republican Central Committee) Members are, so I’ll put that below as well. They represent you, in YOUR TOWNSHIP, so you need to know how to get in touch with them!
What I’m hearing from God is: TALK TO ME. Pour out your heart to Me. I am your STRENGTH. In MY midst is FULLNESS OF JOY. (Ps 16:11)
Let’s pray for each other to FEEL God’s Presence this day, and this SEASON. Be JOYFUL always; Pray continually; give THANKS in ALL circumstances. BECAUSE this is GOD’s Will for you in Christ Jesus! 1 Thess 5:16 -18.
Love you guys!!!
RESPONSIBILITIES OF JCRCC TOWNSHIP COMMITTEE MEMBERS
The RCC (Republican Central Committee) in each county is elected by the people of each respective TOWNSHIP/PRECINCT of that county. If you haven’t seen that on your ballot lately, it’s because no one is filing to fill the position - or - it’s been filled and the seat holder continues to hold it until they are challenged on the ballot. More challenging needs to happen to keep our RCCs filled with energetic, educated members.
The RCCs are made up of 1 elected man and 1 elected woman committee member for each township/precinct. Johnson County has 20 townships, so our JCRCC has 40 members: 20 female and 20 male. As such, YOU have a man and a woman from your township whose job it is to represent YOU.
**If you don’t know your township, contact Act4mo.org. Let them know your address and they can tell you your township, and who your committee members are.
PURPOSE OF THE RCC:
To support the Constitution and laws of the United States of America and the Constitution and laws of the State of Missouri,
To pledge loyalty to the Republican Party and **promote its Principles,
To recruit, assist and elect **conservative Republican candidates,
To facilitate cooperation among the National, State, and Local Republican Committees,
To perform all duties as set forth by this committee, its Chairman and the Missouri Republican State Committee,
To fulfill all obligations of a party committee as given by the Missouri State Statutes and bylaws of this committee.
**The only way to know if a candidate will “promote the Republican Party Principles” and act as a “conservative Republican” is to institute OBJECTIVE vetting of EACH candidate BEFORE their name can appear on the ballot as a REPUBLICAN.
LIST OF JOHNSON COUNTY REPUBLICAN CENTRAL COMMITTEE - COMMITTEEMEN/WOMEN
Each TOWNSHIP has a committeeman and a committeewoman; There are 20 TOWNSHIPS in Johnson County
If you’re unsure what TOWNSHIP you’re in, go to Act4mo.org and ask for help. You’ll need to put in your address. You’ll receive a response within at least 24 hrs. if not sooner.
