Moringa - botanical name - Moringacea, is also called "Mother's best friend", the Drumstick tree, the Horseradish tree, and the Miracle Tree. It is one of the fastest growing trees you can plant, and it packs a powerhouse of nutrition in its leaves, flowers, pods, and seeds. Here is a photo of one of our Moringa oleifera seeds, that we have affectionately named "Morey"...

He has become very near and dear to our hearts, as he helps us educate people about the wonders of the Moringa oleifera tree. We grow 3 varieties - Moringa stenopetala, Moringa oleifera, and Moringa ovalifolia, on a small scale. They are such beautiful trees, and supply a constant harvest of delicious nutrition. You can eat the leaves, the flowers - if you cook them - and the long, green pods. This is a photo of one of our Moringa oleifera trees, a young one...

In the raw leaves, Moringa packs more Vitamin C - gram for gram - than oranges, which almost everyone thinks are the best source of Vitamin C. It provides more potassium - gram for gram - than bananas, again - what everyone usually thinks of as having the most. It contains more calcium than milk - gram for gram - and THAT is in LEAVES! The leaves contain contain all 8 of the essential amino acids necessary for life, and that is rare indeed in the plant kingdom. Quinoa does also, a marvelous grain, and so do amaranth, another incredible grain. Very few other things in the vegetable kingdom can boast so many health benefits.

In India and Africa, and a few other places in the world, Moringa is being successfully used to combat malnutrition and disease. Many mothers have been able to carry their infants to full-term, and they give birth to healthy babies. There are documented incidents of malnourished children, deprived of proper nutrition almost to the point of death, who have revived and thrived, by adding Moringa leaf powder to their diet. Seeds from Moringa trees have been used to purify drinking water. They have the capacity to remove over 99% of the bacteria and turbidity, by merely crushing them, and agitating the resulting powder in the water for several minutes. What a valuable tree!

Our favorite way to eat Moringa, is to strip the leaves off several branches, and lightly steam them for a few minutes, until they are tender, add a touch of seasoning (garlic salt or Spike is what we usually use), a bit of butter, and enjoy! Pick plenty of leaves, because they cook WAY down, like fresh spinach does. Put them in omelets, salads, soups, dips, or just eat them raw, right off the trees. The beautiful flowers, which bees LOVE, have to be cooked - they taste like mushrooms. The pods taste a bit like asparagus, and the seeds can be lightly roasted in a skillet, with a touch of oil and salt, and taste like - roasted seeds. WELL... I don't know what else to compare them to!

We currently have about 400 Moringa trees growing here in Florida. They are young, but they are growing up "real fast"! Just in the last 6 months, I have stripped about ½ of the leaves off most of the trees, so we could eat them. The more you pinch the tops, and cut the branches in ½, the faster they bush out, and produce more leaves. Moringa thrives in temperatures between 70°and 95°, but they can withstand 115° for short periods of time. They may lose all of their leaves when the temperature drop below 60°, consistently, but only temperatures below 40° really harm them. You can successfully grow them in large containers inside, and put them out when the temperatures warm up.

Even though most of the varieties of Moringa can grow into very tall trees, in order to keep the bountiful harvest within arm's reach, they should be pruned back to about 5½ - 6 feet. The tops can be taken off, repeatedly, and they will branch out along the trunk, and give you a wide canopy of bright green leaves, wonderfully fragrant white flowers, edible green pods, and seeds galore!

We hope you enjoy Moringa as much as we do!

CHRISTIANS - WAKE UP!

WHERE ARE THE WARRIORS?

In addition to a severe lack of faith in God, there is a world-wide dearth of the truth.

Never before, have I seen such absolute apathy, pure perversion, and wanton wimpiness. Does anyone read the Word of God anymore? Do you know that Jesus LIVES? Are you not aware that we are in the throes of spiritual warfare, and God needs WARRIORS?!?!? Since when do WOMEN lead the congregations, and what has happened to our MEN? Is anybody out there who still knows how to put on the whole armor of God, take up arms, swagger into the battle, and put the enemy to flight? How much leaven are you going to swallow?

Lord, HELP US! We have fake healers, imitating the miracles of God for filthy lucre - fake "Super Apostolic Ministries" (and I use the term loosely) sucking people into their congregations with promises of privileged revelations - "gold dust" falling in "church" services - "gemstones" falling from the sky - "disappearing diamonds" - "gateways" (those are DEMON portals) - "gold" teeth being put in people's mouths - and doctrines of devils. Wake up, CHURCH! You are asleep in the light!

Then, we have "The Purpose Driven Life", "The Prayer of Jabez", "The Praying Everything", "Boundaries in Marriage" --- all swallowed hook, line and sinker by the Body of Christ, and passed around, discussed, taught on, and promoted as though they were another gospel! I am here to declare that the Church is WAY OFF COURSE, driven by every wind of doctrine, and not very effective against the enemy.

Ever since the NIV gained preeminence in the Bible industry, I have seen more and more watered-down, milk-toast preaching (not where I fellowship), and more self-centered, self-promoting, self-protecting, selfish people leading congregations right down the path to destruction. If God intended for His people to spend their precious time:

• discovering their "ministry" and gifts
• retracing their past for inner healing
• fixing everything wrong with everyone else
• looking "inward" to discover our "higher consciousness"
• examining our "belly buttons" (which is what it amounts to)

Then, why didn't Jesus teach us that by His example?

There was a time, not in our lifetime, when people unashamedly stood up for the truth. WHERE are the warriors? It is my contention that my generation, and the younger generation, have been lulled to sleep by "The Inevitability of Gradualness" principle. The phenomenon is implemented thusly...

Try this on yourself - it will best illustrate its effectiveness:

• Lightly grasp a bit of skin underneath your arm, with your thumb and index finger.
• Now, slowly squeeze applying steady, even pressure, until the thumb and finger almost meet together.
• Hold that pressure for a few seconds.
• Slowly release the pressure, and let go of the skin.
• Now, quickly apply the same amount of pressure, as fast as you can.
• Hurts, doesn't it?

Another example that women who have had children will relate to:

• Contractions start out slow and easy and gentle - some so gentle as to not be felt.
• As labor progresses, the intensity and duration increase to an incredible level.
• Right before the baby is born, is an incredibly strong, sudden increase in pressure.
• Generally, shortly thereafter, the baby is born, in a tremendous release of pressure.
• If the hardest contractions were felt immediately, at the onset of labor, it would appear to be almost unbearable - but they creep up gradually.

Little by little, our nation has been subjected to more and more lies, more and more control, and more and more decadence. The Inevitability of Gradualness concept has been implemented skillfully, so that attitudes and behavior that would once have been totally unacceptable, are the norm in our society today.

The television has become nothing more than a training ground for divorce and selfishness. Psychologically, our men have been gelded. The all-pervasive atmosphere in movies and television, is that the women and children rule, and the men are stupid. Oh, you don't believe me? Wake up, and pay attention!

I couldn't tell you how many times I have heard women (of which I am one) say to me, in my business - "I'm so glad to see women in charge." (Well, I'm not glad!) I hear - "Well, if you want a job done right, get a woman to do it!" (Excuse me - what is that supposed to mean?) I hear - "There aren't any good men around." (What a lie!)

Mom rules the roost, Mom wears the pants, Mom leads, and Dad follows. What an upside-down society we have! Aren't there any women left out there, who want a strong husband with noble values, to admire and respect? I own and run a business, and as a widow for 10 years, I would have LOVED to have a husband to share things with, to ask his opinion, listen to it, and ACT upon it. (Thank the Lord, He sent me one, in February of 2009!) All of this responsibility is for the birds! The females need to wake up, and treat the men as though they are the ones to be followed, not the other way around.

I am literally sick of my own sex treating men like they are eunuchs, or the pariahs of society. There is nothing more admirable than an honest, upright husband who guides and protects his family. Strong men make strong families, who make strong communities, who make strong nations. Over and over, I see wives leaving their husbands, not because they are drinking, not because they are cheating on them, not because they are involved in drugs, not because they are beating them. The wives leave, because they want to "find themselves" (Whatever that is supposed to mean!) or because they say "I'm my own person" (Aren't we all?) or because they "want space". (Then, they shouldn't have gotten married).

For all of you Christian wives out there who are persuing this course of action - may the Lord have mercy on your souls! I don't care WHAT the mindset of the media is, or the mindset of the majority! We Christians are supposed to let the same mind be in us, that is in Christ Jesus, who made Himself a servant for His Bride. Whether you like it or not, the husband is to be the head of the wife, and the wife is supposed to reverence her husband.

While I am on the subject --- allow me to address another issue, to Christian wives. Unless you wish to rewrite the Bible, you have engaged in some wicked activity if you have ever "plead a headache" or used any other excuse, to avoid being intimate with your husband. The wife's body is made for the husband, and the husband's body for the wife. The Word says that you do NOT have control of your own body - the husband does, and he does NOT have control over his body, the wife does. If you somehow think that you are not in trouble with God for playing what I call "sex head games" with your husband - you are deceived, deluded, and in deep trouble. To make up an excuse for not being intimate with your husband is playing the devil's own game. Satan loves to deceive, and believe me - he is not concerned about deceiving most of the world - he has them right where he wants them. He is out to deceive God's sheep - solely!

Jesus said that the adversary never comes, but to steal, kill, and destroy. Well, think about it - he only steals that which has value, kills that which is alive, and destroys that which is established. There is no benefit to him to attack people who are already defeated - he attacks the believers.

I once heard a very powerful statement - Satan is not opposed to good morals; Satan is opposed to Jesus Christ! Think about that!
