PORTALS OF THE PAST – EXCERPT 8th BOOK

This book is still being written! 🙂

It is when we join our voices together…

I am truly excited about this book. I was able to add more of our American history. I know in our day in age, many are trying to erase it. But with Summer Ray, we are helping history to survive the passage of time. The Revolutionary soldiers buried on the banks of the Delaware River on the Pennsylvania side, all but one are nameless as Unknowns. But they were men who died fighting our freedom. At the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Washington Square in Philadelphia it states:

Beneath his stone rests a soldier of Washington’s army

who died to give you liberty!”

How can we as a nation, be so eager to forget those who died for our freedom? If it weren’t for them, we may have never been born! Summer Ray, both on and off the screen, we will continue to do our part in remembering our military – past, present, and future. Once again, thank you for being a part of our world! Each character has certainly taken on a life of their own. Did you know that Lt. Colonel Jameson was a blacksmith? It is attributes like these that we will begin to see, when the new series is brought forth. I feel we need the prequels first, to give us the characters’ backstories and events that were taking place and how they saw the world at their own specific time period. So, this ending will start a new beginning. I look forward to writing many more books, in hopes that you will love them as much as you have this series. You have inspired me so much and I cannot thank you enough. Also, look for the actual The Memoirs of Summer Ray in book form as well. I am taking each of the Summer Ray books and writing them from Summer’s first person point of view. So, with that being said, The Portals of the Past is simply the ending of Phase 1. Wow! What was I thinking with the first book? No one could have ever told me over fourteen years ago that I would be right where I am, doing what I am doing now. But to see our American history being torn down, I truly believe that Father God ordained this story to help our history survive, even if it is just in remembrance. I cannot erect the statues again that were taken down by those who want to destroy our country. I am only once voice in the midst of billions, or one grain of sand in the midst of an ocean. But it is when we join our voices together that we are truly heard, unless we are drowned out by the majority of the other side.

 But I believe in God the Father, who George Washington on April 30, 1789, dedicated this great nation to, when he knelt down in St. Paul’s Church after his first inauguration. This is when he dedicated America to God and made a covenant with the Almighty. Sadly, down through the ages, or up through the ages, however one chooses to look at it, we have lost that love for God and our country. We have for turned away from our covenant with God and are suffering the dire consequences.

“But from everlasting to everlasting
    the Lord’s love is with those who fear him,
    and his righteousness with their children’s children— with those who keep his covenant  and remember to obey his precepts.” Psalm 103: 17, 18 (NIV)

Under the Obama/Biden Administration, the White House has turned into Sodom and Gomorrah. The White House was once held in honor, respect and as if it were a priceless artifact. It was once held as beloved, with patriotism in the highest esteem of allegiance. Yet, now in the year 2023, there is a Black National Anthem. There is only one National Anthem in America, and she should not have to compete with copycats. Yet, she has fallen into the hands of demonstrative people who want to destroy it. This is due to our broken covenant with the Almighty. America stopped fearing Him and replaced the one true God with idol worship, of not wanting to be good and godly citizens. We wanted to serve ourselves!

We didn’t want to train our children up in the way they should go. “Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it
.” Proverbs 22:6 (NKJV) This is partly due to the amount of harm that was done to the parents, because of disciplining our children. We were threatened with jail, or to have them taken from us. So, parents were afraid to discipline their kids. This society we have now is part of the fruits of that evil. Tyranny, transgenderism, a Senate staffer having Gay sex in a Congressional Hearing Room, are unspeakable horrors that we are now living with in our society. Children who are too young to even make their own breakfast, in some states, are allowed to make their own decisions about Gender Affirming Care. How is that even possible? It is because we lost our way as a nation. Hillary Clinton stated that us MAGA’S need to be deprogrammed, from following our cult leader Trump. President Trump is a true Patriot. I am a true Patriot, and I will follow whoever I damn well please. But first and foremost, I follow God. I follow those – or I learn from those who have hearts and the fruits of Almighty God. I will not follow after those who have turned away from Him!

I do not want to see our country in ruins. I believe God has a remnant that is helping to see this country back to a state of honor. Summer Ray is part of my giving my all to this Cause! In March of 2024, I am starting the 15th year of writing the series and let me tell you, we have a long way to go. There are sequels, prequels and other equels to be written, and to be made for the big screen, and for TV episodes as well. I am in this till the final, “The End!” My children, grandchildren, and generations to follow them, are just too important for me to sit on the sidelines. We are doing this for your families as well. No one wants to live under a curse, and if you have felt like you have and still are, think about your God. Think about the covenant we as Americans have broken. He didn’t break it. We did! But I also know He is faithful. “His love is with those who fear Him, and his righteousness with their children’s children, with those who keep His covenant and remember to obey His precepts.” I hope the story of Summer Ray has helped you in some way to understand how important our founding of America really is. It simply cannot be redone, ignored, torn down, or violated. We simply must repent and go back to the beginning of (which we have in some part in this story) and remember from where we came and remember all it took to make this country, a free one. If it were not for George Washington and the Continental Army, we might not ever have been born! “We have, therefore, to resolve to conquer or die.”

GENERAL GEORGE WASHINGTON

“The time is now near at hand which must probably determine whether Americans are to be freeman or slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their houses and farms are to be pillaged and destroyed, and themselves consigned to a state of wretchedness from which not huma n efforts will deliver them. The fate of unborn millions will now depend, under God, on the courage and conduct of this army. Our cruel and unrelenting enemy leaves us only the choice of brave resistance or the most abject submission. We have, therefore, to resolve to conquer or die.”

Address to the Continental Army before the Battle of Long Island
