The Church Of The Souls Evolution with The Reverend Blake Rubie (Ordained Minister)
From Army Roads to Soul Evolution:
Service, Sacrifice, Reincarnation, and the Power of Prayer
Spiritual Seeking, Public Speaking, and the Soul’s Journey
In this episode of The Church of the Soul’s Evolution, host Reverend Blake Rubie opens by introducing the show as a place where he talks about spirituality and truth-seeking. He references his book The Grey Brain and the Golden Soul, explaining his belief that the physical brain relates to the body while the soul relates to the spirit. From there, he connects his radio work to public speaking, music, Toastmasters, and the value of learning to speak clearly and confidently over time.
Toastmasters, Venezuela, and a Life of Service
Reverend Blake reflects on his long relationship with Toastmasters and public speaking, tracing it back to his time in Cleveland and then into his Army assignment in Caracas, Venezuela. He describes serving in the military group there, improving his Spanish by speaking with local security guards, and remembering the poverty and gratitude he saw among Venezuelan people. He presents this period as both a professional and personal learning experience, shaped by language, faith, human connection, and awareness of economic hardship.
Civilian Army Work, San Antonio, and a 44-Year Career
The episode then follows Blake’s transition from active-duty Army service into contractor and civilian work. He describes receiving a job opportunity through Rosemary and Tom Levitt, working under Army Installation Management Command, moving through contract changes involving Booz Allen Hamilton and Calibre, and eventually relocating to San Antonio when the organization moved from Crystal City, Virginia. He recounts working in operations, worldwide individual augmentation systems, and Army databases until his retirement, totaling almost 44 years of service connected to the Army.
Family History, Immigration, Martial Arts, and Military Formation
Blake looks back at his parents’ lives, including his father’s British Army service in World War II, his mother’s experience during the bombing of London, their migration to Canada, and the family’s later move to Guadalajara, Mexico. He then recounts his own early adulthood in San Diego, college studies, philosophy, martial arts, and work as a bellman before joining the Army in 1982. His military path includes infantry training, Germany, Fort Polk, Korea, Bowling Green State University ROTC, and the Defense Language Institute in Monterey, where he studied Turkish and led a competitive Army running team.
Leadership, Language School, and Personal Achievement
A major portion of the episode centers on Blake’s pride in physical training, leadership, and military achievement. He describes leading a run team at Monterey, training hard, winning a large trophy five times, and recording a fast team time. He then discusses his Turkish language studies, passing the Defense Language Proficiency Test, attending the basic non-commissioned officer course at Fort Benjamin Harrison, and winning the honor graduate, distinguished leader, and Iron Man awards. These stories emphasize discipline, competitiveness, perseverance, and the pride his parents felt in his accomplishments.
Kidney Donation, His Son’s Trials, and the Gift of Life
The most personal section concerns Blake’s son, who was born with underdeveloped kidneys and eventually needed dialysis and transplantation. Blake explains that he received a compassionate reassignment, moved to the Presidio of San Francisco, and donated one of his kidneys to his son at Stanford University Children’s Hospital in March 1995. He describes the physical effects of that old-style surgery, the scar, later disability issues, and the lifestyle changes it required. He strongly encourages kidney donation as a gift of life while also urging people to research how it may change them, and he mentions his son’s book Finding Faith Through Dialysis as a resource for people facing similar trials.
Reincarnation, Prayer, Afterlife Beliefs, and the Creator
The final portion turns fully toward Reverend Blake’s spiritual teachings. He presents his belief that human beings are co-creator gods in the making, moving through reincarnation across planets and lives toward eventual spiritual creation and union. He rejects eternal damnation, describing hell as temporary spiritual rehabilitation, and speaks intensely about suicide, prayer for souls, universal law, and the power of praying for others. The episode closes with Blake teaching that “a man will prey on man until man learns to pray for man,” then offering a prayer directly to the Creator of the universe, asking for blessing, help, love, and divine will for all children of Earth.

The Church of the Soul's Evolution with The Reverend Blake Rubie (Ordained Minister)
There is no only son of God. Jesus taught us to pray, "OUR Father, who are in Heaven..." We are all God's children.
We are here on earth to develop spiritually. We came from Heaven and will return to Heaven, eventually. As the brain is to the body, so the soul is to the spirit. As spirits of light, the Creator has created darkness to help us learn from the darkness and increase our light. In this show, there is much to learn about spirituality. The subjects range from the creation, the Original Creator, Co-Creator Gods of Solar Systems and Galaxies, reincarnation, the nature of our spirits, planets throughout the universe, near-death experiences, extraterrestrial intervention in our past, angels, who Jesus really was and more!

Speaker 1 - Reverend Blake Rubie, Host
Good afternoon everybody.
This is the Reverend Blake Rubie.
Welcome to my show, The Church of the Soul's Evolution, where I talk about spirituality.
And if you're interested, for those of you that may not have heard me say this before, I've got a book on Amazon in the Kindle bookstore called The Grey Brain and the Golden Soul.
Grey Brain, G-R-E-Y and the Golden Soul.
Why do I have that title?
Because the physical brain is through the physical body, so the soul is through the spirit.
So it's kind of like the brain of the spirit.
I don't know if you knew that before, but anyway, that's what I believe we're all entitled to our opinion, right?
But I'm a truth seeker myself, I'm about you.
Are you a truth seeker?
Nothing to be afraid of.
Here we are.
We are experiencing the material world.
So I was just practicing a couple of my songs before I started my radio show.
And unfortunately, a little earlier my, one of my wireless microphone units ran out of battery power, I had to recharge it.
But anyway, I'm always thinking back here, my patio and my songs are very tied in with what I believe in.
And there's a lot of synchronicity between my thing and my public speaking life, so to speak.
Talking on my radio show is public speaking, very beneficial.
I feel, be able to talk for 55 minutes.
Sometimes I have guests, most times I don't.
But also I'm a member of four Toastmasters clubs here in San Antonio.
And what they are, are clubs for public speaking were I go and practice talking in front of people.
That's essentially what it is.
And today we had a meeting, 930 Saturday morning.
How about you?
You want to wake up and go to a public speaking club at 930 in the morning?
Kind of eye opening, that's to say the least.
And I gave a speech, it was about a 10 minute speech on the evaluating speeches.
And I've given that speech before from the successful club series.
First Masters is a pretty cool organization.
And one learned to practice public speaking, that's really the basics.
And I've been doing it for many years.
Going all the way back to when I was living in Cleveland in 1998, I was a member of two clubs there for two years.
And then I moved to Venezuela with the Army.
And that was my last duty assignment to culminate by 22 years of active duty.
And I was in Caracas, at the Venezuelan Army fort there.
And coincidentally, it was the same fort that they attacked recently in capture Maduro.
I worked in the military group there.
I think eventually they closed that down because the job is after I left, there was a lot of turmoil and trouble with the Venezuelan and American government.
So I believe they kept the embassy open, but they closed down the military group.
And usually every South American country has a military group, which helps mainly with foreign military sales, you know, like jets and tanks and that kind of thing.
I'm going to [Pause while host takes a drink.].
Well, I'll tell you that time in Venezuela, I was there two and a half years in 2001 to 2004.
That was quite an experience.
I got a chance to improve my Spanish because I'm almost fluent.
So I don't have native speaker fluency, but I can say whatever I want to say.
And that time there in Venezuela gave me a great opportunity to improve, be able to say things like hadn't said before because the people I was talking with didn't speak any English.
And when you're trying to practice a language in a country where the people there don't speak any English, especially when you try to relay some profound concepts, you know, and ideas, for example, talking about spirituality, nature of the spirit, about nearly half experiences, extraterrestrials, and I didn't have anything better to do.
Some nights I would just go out and talk to security guards.
And I would after having come home from work working at the military group, you know, I'd cook myself some dinner and then I would go out there and they would just be hanging around.
And they would have to work all night.
And I would talk with them sometimes an hour or two hours.
And it really helped me improve my Spanish.
And they were good men.
I still remember them.
They didn't make much money.
I lived in a $2,700 a month apartment.
Their government paid that money for me to live in a very beautiful apartment.
And my commander, a colonel, O6, he had an apartment overlooking the Valley of Caracas, both to the embassy, and it was a beautiful view.
And the government paid like $3,600 for his apartment.
And very sadly, the security guards that I was talking with didn't make much money at all.
They made like $350 a month.
And from that money, they had to support their families if they were married, some were single, but that had to pay for the rent for the food and if they had a car or that gasoline and repairs for the car.
So it wasn't much money at all.
When I was there, the currency devalued and there was inflation.
Very sad, you know, because the Venezuelan people are really good people.
I found that out.
They're very grateful for what they have.
They were always saying, thanks to God for this, thanks to God for that.
Yet they endured a lot of hard times with the poverty, money problems.
So I retired from there and moved to Alexandria, Virginia.
I had fortunately communicated with an old boss of mine.
And she had invited me to come for an interview with a man who was her boss, but a project lead.
For a contractor with the Army.
And his name was Tom Levitt.
Very, very man.
I'm very appreciative for his support over the years.
He said when I went into his room for an interview, into his office, he said, if you know Rosemary, that's the name of the woman, that's a good enough referral for me.
And we sat down and he started working out the details of how much I would get paid.
And it was great.
It turned out that I was making just about as much commensurate and a little bit more than what I was making as an E7.
I made E7 in 22 years.
So in the E7, we're 22 years.
We're making approximately $65,000 a year.
That was back in 2004.
And so I think the final figure was like $68,000.
And I looked at that and I said, wow, thank you very much.
Because I've been looking for a job for a couple of weeks.
Maybe not that long.
I made it about a week.
And the best I could find at that time was like $30,000, $33,000.
And then [Pause while host takes a drink.].
That was a blessing.
Thank you, God.
Very much.
And so I worked four years for that company.
I'm not sure what NPR stands for.
But every year we had to get the contract renewed with our parent organization called the Installation Management Command, U.S.
Army Installation Management Command.
And they were a pretty cool organization, I thought.
Working for them, you know, in the office.
And I used to buy suits and I would come to work in this with a suit and a tie and nice shoes and I did that for four years.
And then it was kind of stressful every year about whether or not we would retain the contract.
But we did for those four years.
However, in the fifth year, they were outbitted by a company called Booz Allen Hamilton.
You might have heard of them.
Also contractors for the military and maybe other companies as well.
And I started working for them, a subsidiary of theirs called Calibre, who I worked two years for.
Then because of the base realignment commission, it was determined that the Army's installation management command would move from Crystal City, Virginia to San Antonio, Texas.
And before that happened, my position that I'd been working as a contractor was converted into a civilian position.
Otherwise, no one is a GS position.
And my supervisor at the time is position that also been converted into a civilian position.
He had been a contractor too.
So fortunately, he went to bat for me and supported me.
Plus, I was a 30% disabled veteran back then.
And that's a good thing, a good level to be at.
So, I had priority over everyone.
And they did, it was the same job exactly.
So what they did in essence was a blind name with West.
And I just slid into that position and became a civilian part of the deal was moving to San Antonio, Texas.
And so in August of 2010, about 15 years ago, I was sworn in at the civilian, I hopped in my car and I drove all the way from Alexandria to San Antonio, Texas.
It took me about three days.
And that was so happy.
I got here and my organization had not yet had their building completed on Fort Sam Houston.
So we had to wait about a year.
And the meantime, they put us in this abandoned Kmart and there were offices all over, you know, cubicle.
It was like cubicle city.
It was one story.
And you could see like way over in the other side of the building was the finance directorate.
And then over there was the logistic and all operations over there and all kinds of different other offices.
And it was an experience, quite an experience.
And so I worked in the operations center at the beginning.
And then they finished the brand new building on Fort Sam Houston in June of 2011.
They moved into there.
And then throughout the years, I worked with the worldwide individual augmentation system and database that helps to send soldiers that we work with soldiers to countries around the world.
Back then, you know, Afghanistan was pretty hot.
So was Iraq.
Other countries like Djibouti and Ethiopia and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba and the Soto Cano, Honduras.
So I was working out with my supervisor when I moved to San Antonio, it became only my responsibility.
And I kept that to about 2018, so close to, I worked for a total of about 14 years.
And then they gave it to someone else and I worked with a new database for the army to manage happens.
And I did that all the way up until I retired last year in 31 December.
So all together, I had 15 years and nine months, adding on my four months of tickly to the total as a civilian for a total overall total of almost 44 years working for the army.
And I'll tell you that my parents were very proud of me when I joined in 1982.
And they passed away in 1999.
But they were, I think that might have helped them live longer a longer time because they were both 81.
And we were very close the last few months of their lives.
I used to go visit them and we would bond very well.
Not that we didn't bond before, but we went through a lot together.
And we weren't always wealthy.
I mean, we never really were what you would call wealthy.
Dad was with the Canadian Army in Canada.
He had been in the British Army in World War II.
Mom went through the bombing of London.
Dad was at Normandy in Dunkirk.
And after World War II, they moved to Canada, migrated to Canada and lived in the British Columbia area on the Mackenzie River and worked for a fellow British soldier there on the farm.
I don't remember how long they stayed there, but they were there for at least one year, I think.
And they went through a winter and it looked tops.
And then they moved to Ontario, Canada around, I think, around 1952.
And the doctors told my mother she couldn't have children because she had them kind of physical effects ailments, if you will, in her pelvic area.
So they adopted my sister, Eleanor, who lives in Seattle right now.
She's been a great sister to me over the years.
And then I came along surprisingly.
She got pregnant with me and I was born in 1954.
And in Barrie, Ontario and in different places in Canada.
And then on a cold January night in 1971, we loaded up our newly purchased 1963 Pontiac station wagon.
And my mother and father, Eleanor, moved out.
She was on her own at that time.
Two cats and we moved out to Guadalajara, Mexico.
And we lived there from 1971 to 1973 when I graduated from high school.
And that was an incredible time.
Again, thanking God for seeing us through there, those times.
And after I graduated, we moved to San Diego.
I went to a junior college there.
And I got approximately 50 semester hours of credit.
And I was going to the University of San Diego for a while.
I was in a major in philosophy.
I was taking Korean, Korean karate, Tang Soo Do, and later on when I did two years in Korea with the Army, I took Taekwondo and got a black belt.
But before then, 1973, I got a green belt, Tang Soo Do, another form of Korean karate.
And then I got a job part-time at the during the junior college time.
A part-time job was a Bellman at an hotel and mission circle in San Diego.
And then I got a full-time job of the Bellman at the height on Mission Bay, 1976 to 1982.
Then I quit.
And then moved in with my parents.
And then I began the process to join the Army and going to the South Coast, the schools down in Phoenix, San Las Vegas, because they were learning in Vegas.
I had been there for about a year.
And the rest of the history, I went to basic training in Fort Benning, Georgia with the infantry.
And when I say infantry, I mean, you know, that was one tough basic training.
I'm always proud of saying that I did four years in the infantry and then [Pause while host takes a drink.].
And I went to Germany for two years after that.
I was with an 81 millimeter border platoon there.
And then after two years, I changed to a what they call a four-duce, 107 millimeter border platoon.
So two years in Germany, then two years in Fort Polk, Louisiana, one, I was with the bigger motor platoon.
We used to drive tracks to the field and fired the tracks, fired the rounds off the tracks.
And we had field training exercises.
I remember in 1985, that was at Fort Polk, made a chord through 86.
We spent like 100 days in the field and straight shooting illumination rounds for the tankers.
And after Fort Polk, that's when I reclassified to a school to change to administrative specialists at Fort Jackson, South Carolina.
I'm going to go ahead to the way from there.
I went to Korea to camp Casey, which was near Seoul about maybe 30, 40 miles from Seoul.
And then they asked me if I wanted to do another year.
And I got 30 days of leave free because I had re enlisted for another year.
I think I did re enlisted at the time too.
I can't remember, but anyway, I did two years in Seoul and Korea.
And then went to the ROTC at Bowling Green State University in Ohio, where I did 36 months.
So a little over, what was the 39 months?
Almost three years.
And when I got close to leaving there, I had requested that I go to the language school in Monterey to learn new language.
And I put in my request for either French, Tagalog, or Turkish.
And they approved Turkish.
So off I went to Monterey, California, to the language school with my newlywed wife in a brand new 1991 Pontiac Firebird.
And we got to Monterey, and we were assigned to the staff there.
I was in golf company.
They had all these different army companies.
Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Fox, Clark, Gellwith Golf.
And there was hotel company too.
And they were the TOW missile.
TOW missile are what they fired off of tracks back then.
And then there was also a company of Marines there in Monterey at the language school.
Oh, there for one year from June of 92 through June of 93.
And probably one of the best things I've done in my life was to be in charge of a run team.
Every month we used to compete with all the other army companies and the Marines.
And sometimes the Navy SEALs, they could drink.
And it was no joke.
It was a two mile track, a little bit more than two miles, like 2.1 miles.
At first it was around a dirt track, and then they moved it to around the Russian school there where they thought Russian.
And so we used to, our team, remember, she said, hook up early in the morning every day of the week, Monday through Friday.
Now sometimes on the weekend we would find a 5k or a 10k or a 5 mile race around the area there and go and compete.
I did to help me run better because that was in charge of the group.
But it had to be 12, 12 team members, and we need a captain on the outside, two rows of five, and a guide on bearer in front.
And we would compete as I mentioned once a month.
And it was always a lot of people there, you know, cheering the different companies on.
It was quite a well festive time.
And all the leadership and that take was a huge trophy.
I mean, the trophy was taller than me.
It was about six feet tall.
And they gave the trophy to the winner at the end in the ceremony.
So during the one year that I was there, our team, my team, won the trophy five times.
The best time we had was in May of 93, and we ran the 2.1 miles in 11 minutes and 39 seconds.
And I was on the outside.
I was keeping everyone together.
You know, that was my job as the captain too.
So, say, go a little bit faster.
Okay, slow it down, you know, trying to keep everybody together.
You know, I didn't want anyone straggling.
And so we won five times and we came in second, fourth time.
That's not bad, right?
But one year there for someone who was in charge.
And I was very proud of that.
It used to be that whenever we practiced in the morning, we would go to maybe a two mile run or we go one down along the coast about eight miles.
And I don't know if you're familiar with Monterey, but there's a huge hill there with the language schools on the top of.
I mean, I'm talking about a huge hill.
And if you run up that hill and make it without stopping the neuron, we would get shaped.
And we'd do that all the time.
And then we would do fartlecks, which is running in formation.
I would sing cadence to them, as I was pretty good with singing cadence in the Army for either marching or running.
And fartlecks are when you're running at an easy pace.
And then the person in the rear, a single file person in the rear jog sprints up to the front, while everyone's jogging.
And then we take turns doing it.
The person at the back, run up to the front.
And so you do that for maybe a mile or two miles.
I also had them do PT test, physical training, and we'd do push-ups and sit-upss and then go for one.
And so I had them in good shape because that stake was at trophy.
And we trained nothing better than the other companies.
And that was a good motivator, myself.
You know, and I love the wind.
So I was like, yeah, baby.
And I'm very competitive.
I've always have been.
So that was one of the best things I did in my life.
I'm proud of that.
That was the fact when my parents were still alive too, and they were proud to hear me doing well.
And so I did my one year there.
And I wound up with a 3.40 GPA in the language school.
And I passed the final test, the defense language proficiency test, the OPT.
And they test you in three areas, speaking, hearing, and writing.
So I think it was like on the score on the scale of one to three.
And it goes like one, one plus, two, two plus three.
So I got a two plus speaking, two plus in writing, I believe.
And a two in listening, I think it was.
I passed.
And what a great experience.
And from there, I went to the basic non-commissioned officer course in Fort Benjamin Harrison in Indiana.
That was just before they closed it down.
And there I knew an old sergeant major who I'd worked with in Korea.
It's training in COU.
It was the first sergeant at that time.
And I went and had a meeting with him.
And that was special.
So for the months that I was there, maybe five weeks actually, we learned all about our MOS, our job, military occupational specialty, and group exercises.
We did physical training together.
We just brought it together for like five weeks.
We did everything together.
We went out to the field together for a few days.
And they have three main awards and basic non-commissioned officer the honor graduate.
And in order to be the honor graduate, you had to have the minimum GPA, I think was, I can't remember exactly, on a scale of up to 4.0.
And I won the honor graduate.
Although there were a couple of people that had a higher GPA than I did, however, they didn't do so well on their PT test.
So I won the honor graduate.
And then I was also awarded the distinguished leader award because as one person put it, anybody who can run that fast deserves the award.
And at that time, I just come from being the run captain in Monterey.
So I was in peak form, peak shape.
I was about 38 years old.
It was 1993.
Yeah, 39 years old.
And then also we had the final PT test.
One could compete in what they call the Iron Man competition.
And I won that.
I won the Iron Man trophy.
And I've got it right here, right next to me on my table here, back here in the patio.
And my final scores were for push-ups.
I did 88 in two minutes, sit-up 88 in two minutes.
And the two mile run was 11.56.
It seemed like I could always, I'm just watching though, there's a want that just went into the wall.
I don't know if that's a clear thing.
I've got waspray.
I might spray that later.
Maybe I'll just let him stay.
I guess he's not hurting anything.
Anyway, back to that.
So I graduated.
And they said, wow, you did so well.
You got the honor graduate and distinguished leader award.
And now he flew out of there.
He was checking it out, I guess.
And the Iron Man trophy.
And they said, make sure you put that information on an evaluation in the future so that you can get promoted at that time.
I was in E6.
So you can get promoted to E7.
You're going to [Pause while host takes a drink.].
Excuse me, it never really happened.
And from the basic non-commissioned officer, of course, I was supposed to go to Ankara, Turkey.
Because I just graduated from the Turkish course for one year.
And then we had everything ready to go.
We had catalytic converted, taken out the car.
We had our tickets.
We had our passports.
And then they said, didn't anybody tell you?
We don't have building for you here.
So I got on the phone with my branch.
And I agreed to let me go back to Monterey to wait until I got new orders to go to Turkey.
Well, I thought it was going to be the following year, but instead, just like three months later, I'm going to take another drink.
I got orders to go to Ankara.
And we had a choice that I could go by myself on a company to all with my wife.
She had just become pregnant with my son about three months pregnant at that time.
So we decided that she would stay and she had a job working in the child development center there.
And off I went to Ankara, working at the Joint U.S.
Military Aid to Turkey and that building there wasn't experience that was working with the Turkish soldiers.
They all knew me.
I would come and think to them and tell jokes that I've learned in Turkish and got them to laugh.
And five and a half months later, my son was born.
And so I got on a military hop charter and went from Turkey back to where my son had been born.
And well, most of it was that was Stanford University Children's Hospital.
And to make a long story short, he was found to have underdeveloped kidneys during his fetal development.
There'd been a blockage in his ureter.
And so his kidneys had not grown to their full size.
And they said that he would need transplantation, dialysis, and or transplantation.
So I had to request a compassionate reassignment.
And the army approved it.
I didn't have to go back to Turkey.
They sent all my things back to where I was living at the time.
And from there, we moved up to the Presidio of San Francisco.
And Presidio of Monterey, to the Presidio of San Francisco, and I started working with the Army, the U.S.Pix Army there as an admin person.
On a compassionate reassignment, I used to work evaluations for officers and enlisted, taking care of them.
And so I was there from August of 94 through October of 95.
When they closed down the Presidio of San Francisco, and it was a very unusual thing that happened, 50 minutes had done a show about the Dop course.
And how the Army at that time would have been running it was taking in big money when really the city of San Francisco should have been operating it.
So it wasn't long after that before the city of San Francisco took over operation of the golf course and wasn't long after that before they closed down the garrison there in the Presidio of San Francisco.
And when it did, we were the company that did all the ceremonies and honors.
And we marched out the gate and all that pumped and ceremony, you know, I participated in it.
So it was just a few months early when I'd had the transplant, I gave my son one of my kidneys in an operation at Stanford University's Children Hospital on the 29th of March 1995.
And shortly after that, I was sent up to Madigan Army Hospital in Fort Lewis, Washington to determine whether or not I was suitable for retention in the Army.
And they determined that was so eligible to deploy overseas anywhere.
So I was doing okay.
It was a little bit rough at first, you know, having the kidney taken out of my white diet.
I've got a nine-inch scar in my right abdominal area.
It looks like a little inner tube, but it's just the way it is, you know, because it kind of pinches it up.
The nerves didn't go back to a year later, but I'm not complaining.
You know, I've been moving with it now for 31 years.
It's all good.
It had changed my lifestyle, a healthier lifestyle, drinking more water, you know, trying to pull out all the stops, you know, that my exercise, not too much, it's enough to exercise my heart, beating my lungs, my heart, my lungs, you know, I'm going to [Pause while host takes a drink.].
And so I would recommend anybody to or anyone to donate one of their kidneys to someone who needs it.
You can't survive afterwards.
Now a day for surgeries are less invasive, so there is no longer the need to cut one side of your body open, you know, like a nine-inch scar.
Like I have.
Maybe a two-inch scar, two-three-inch scar nowadays.
And I found, and that's how you the truth that my disabilities that I have as a result of the kidney donation are inexorably linked to my painful scar on my right side.
You'll like to gird.
You know, a gird is right, gastole, and it's off against the esophageal, it reflects to be also PTSD and anxiety associated with that.
Painful scar, it's associated with that because it really did happen my movement.
At that time in 1995, kidney transplant weren't really common in the military.
And even around the world in the private sector, you know, there hadn't been too many people donating kidneys up until that point of time.
And it hampered my movement, you know, turning left and right and bending over, up and down.
And that's why I think I have that little right inner tube on my thigh, which is the truth, you know, right?
I don't like complaining, but I'm just telling you the nature of my situation because I do get disability from the VA for that.
And thank you, God, for that.
The area is giving me disability for my the disabilities associated with the kidney donation.
Sleep apnea also needs 2012.
And it's because I can only sleep in my back.
Can't sleep on my side, either side, because I think of that painful scar on my side.
Now, although it doesn't really hurt, they categorize it as a painful scar because it does inhibit my movement, I think.
But I could still run a little bit.
I could still walk.
So again, I would encourage anyone, you know, with the surgeries, the surgeries being less invasive now, there's nothing like donating a kidney to someone that's a true gift of life because dialysis, my friends, is a nightmare.
You might have heard about it.
My son was on dialysis twice.
He survived.
He got a book on Amazon called Finding Faith Through Dialysis.
He's an orange colored book.
You can't miss it, but Bryce will be highly recommended or someone you might know who might be going through trials and tribulations when everything associated with, you know, waiting for a kidney.
Hopefully, you know, on the transplantation, that takes years, whether you're a peritoneal dialysis or on hemodialysis.
It's a good book to recount what my son went through, you know, and the prayers and praying that he did to survive that.
And he was just a young man too.
The first, he was 10 months old when he got the purse when he had the kidney transplant.
He had been on dialysis already for several months, peritoneal dialysis, and then just after he graduated from high school at age 19, he was on dialysis again.
And then he got a second kidney from his best friend's mother up in Ohio.
And that was a truly a gift of love, you know, a father, well, it's kind of a no-brainer.
But a mother up there in Ohio, who knew Bryce and all the trouble that he went through, he would post me stuff back then on Facebook and looking for a donor.
And then they had to go through the testing and there were people helping him and they even had some events where they would try to raise money to fan the awareness of his needing kidney and put it together.
The second one, and thank you God for that, it was tremendous.
And so my friends, I definitely do encourage anyone thinking of donating a kidney to someone because it is truly a gift of life.
However, do your research, find out how it's going to change you.
Remember, I'm a old school transplantation, so the disabilities that I have, again, are associated with the 19-scarme.
On my side, the new lesson-based surgeries, I don't know for sure that I think, in my opinion, do not result in as many disabilities.
Of course, things are not exactly the same.
You're born with two kidneys and you wind up with one and you can live perfectly well with one.
The other one kind of compensates.
It grows in size, functionality, and I'm trying to keep my functionality up.
You know, I go get blood tests frequently.
And the last I heard, I was at about 69 percent functionality, but it goes up, it goes down up as high as 90, down to 86, down to 77, up to 80, something, down to 69.
I might be going down.
I don't know, I'm getting older.
So hopefully, you know, I'm going to keep on drinking water and that.
My son and I determined that it's in the book.
If you want to avoid becoming diabetic, you know, [Pause while host takes a drink.].
If you want to avoid any kind of disease, whether it's cancer or heart disease, make sure you drink your recommended daily amount of water.
Very simply, water is like a miracle liquid.
It flushes your body out, it flushes your kidneys out.
I'm not talking about tea or soda pop or beer, talking about water.
Good for you.
And I heard one time, if you gave someone who had been walking around in the desert for a couple of days, dying of course, totally thirsty, you know, and then you found them and then you offered them a drink, offered them that they want a nice ice cold beer, a nice ice cold Coca-Cola or a nice ice cold glass of water.
You know what they would take all the time?
Water.
That is what the body needs.
You know, if you sweat all that stuff out, you put it back in, you know what I'm saying?
But then again, your co-creator God me making, you have pretty well, you're going through the journey of your soul through the process of reincarnation.
You are alive, my friends.
If you, logically in your mind, acknowledge that you are alive, then you are a co-creator God in the making.
Going through that process of reincarnation, one life after another, on different planets throughout the universe and the goal is to get to where you are a co-creator God.
And you can night with a soul mate and have your own catch of infinite space, build your own solar system, have your own spirit children, millions of them, have to make your own planets and choose the types of planets that you want in your soul system.
Any number of planets from the big gaseous ones like Jupiter and Saturn to the ones like Earth or Mars or Venus even, you serious?
And if you don't believe that, well, you're entitled to your own opinion.
You'll find out one day, you know, when you cross over to the other side, you become pure spirit and you pop out of your physical body and you [Pause while host takes a drink.].
Then you come up to me in heaven, that world over there on fire and say, you are right.
We are pure spirits, made of light energy.
We can live in the fire.
Hopefully you don't go into that lava bed of fire down below, you know.
But that's just temporary.
There's no such thing as eternal damnation, my friends.
Let me explain why, because a loving mother and father here on Earth, would they condemn their child to an eternity of suffering just because they made mistakes and were disobedient?
No.
Well, think how much more loving your mother and father in heaven are.
Hell is otherwise known as God's jail.
It's serious rehabilitation for some seriously bad people who do some seriously bad things.
Right?
There are people like that, right?
Active shooters and then people would say, take their own lives, you know, [Pause while host takes a drink.].
And you notice that?
That's a very interesting thing that happened.
We didn't know what I'm talking about this kind of subject, but have you noticed that in the majority of active shootings, the person takes their own life afterwards?
Because it's like a movie ghost.
You're going to be haunted by demons.
Second, you take someone's life, against their will, and haunted by them too.
As you live your life, my father, just a quick go of what's going off on the side here, my father killed a German at least one in World War II.
He was haunted by that, the spirit of that soldier, German soldier, for the rest of the time until he died.
He told me about it.
He would wake up nighttime, swaying in his fleet.
But with an active shooter, they're eating to kill himself because then they realized the gravity of their mistake.
They'd actually taken someone alive.
Bylated universal law and principle made the third mother and father angry.
And then there are demons that know how to deal with those kinds of situations.
And all of a sudden the walls close in on them, and they realized the only alternative solution is to take their own life.
That doesn't make anything better.
Whose side is never an answer, my friends.
It is far worse.
There, where they go, and then what they have here.
I don't care what you've been through here on Earth.
What kind of trouble, what kind of anxiety, what kind of sins that you committed.
There is nothing worse than going there to our suicide film.
It's a place where there is no light, there is no hope, there is no love, there is no joy, there's just that darkness, the stare, stuff that will make you crazy.
But it won't actually make you crazy.
It makes you go over and over in their mind why you did what you did.
And too, on Sunday, you reach the limit of your term or maybe someone prays for you.
I always pray, if I think someone committed suicide, if I know someone who committed suicide, and I think that maybe there might be some good in them, that maybe they would push to their limit by some extenuating circumstances.
I'll say a prayer for them.
And of course, God's will, the creators will always be done.
But I've heard that if you pray for someone who committed suicide, and you pray that God bless their soul, that they can be released from that prison.
Do you remember that? my friends, there would be a good touch for you at prayer warriors.
Are you strong enough?
Are you courageous enough to pray for someone who committed suicide, a friend maybe, a family member, someone that you heard about, a celebrity, someone that you liked, maybe you saw on television, praying for their soul can't hurt.
And like I said, ultimately, God's will shall be done.
But you can release a soul from that incarceration by praying for them.
That's a form of love, my friends.
Praying for each other, prayer is going to fade the world, and you can help by doing a prayer warrior.
I've mentioned this before.
God had a message to give to me.
God gave me a message to give to you, better put.
And that is that, tell them that God says, a man will pray on man until man learns to pray for man.
And first pray is spelled P-R-E-Y, the second pray is spelled P-R-A-Y.
So if you pray, especially in groups of people, large groups, five, ten, fifteen, twenty people, there's a lot of power in that prayer holding hands.
You can end wars, you can fade people, you can change their lives.
All you need is the strength and the courage to do it.
Well, you received that, my friends.
Can you do that?
Are you brave enough in the land of the brave?
Land of the free home of the brave?
You can pray for someone who's in a car wreck.
Well, one that is about to happen, God intervened and sent his angels.
They just heard angels, because of his mother died too.
And those angels will intervene based on your words, those words that you spoke.
The words that we speak have a lot of meaning.
They put forces into action and you can play people's lives.
You can change people's lives.
Just by praying.
Now I'm running out of time, my friends.
So I'll say a prayer.
I'll call upon the creator of the universe.
I don't need any intermediary.
I don't even need to go to the Mother and Father God.
Oh, Jesus.
Oh, Muhammad, the Buddha.
I go straight to the creator of the universe because ultimately we are children of the Creator.
We wouldn't exist if it hadn't been for the greatest spirit that's out there.
It looks like an aurora borealis.
While we're called to the rainbow, a huge energy field made of electricity, cracking with electricity and a voice inside of being inside the creator of the universe, the original spirit, the universe.
He put this peaceful universe into growth from the beginning one solar system after another, one galaxy after another, commanding those four forces.
The first force, the force of the created well with suns and the planets, in the moon, certain forces that created all the plant and animal life.
The third force that created all the sentient life and you better believe it.
There's thousands and thousands of human beings out there besides us, human beings, human planet earth and the fourth force, the light inside your soul like a flame inside a lantern, that little spark from the creator, a gift, a little spark of light that lights up your soul, my friends.
Grow your life while you're here on earth.
Increase the intensity of your life.
Thank you for everything.
We love you.
You're asking.
Please bless all your children here on earth and help us in any way we need it.
If that could be your will, you're omnipotent.
I'm listening to you.
You can do anything.
You are able, creator.
We praise you for your greatness, for your wonderful, wonderful greatness.
We love you.
Thank you for your love.
Amen.
Everybody talking next week.
Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
