PAPER, ROCK, SCISSORS WITH RON ROBEY :)

There really isn't too much that you can say about rock paper scissors except it's a game of chance and there can only be one winner. This is a best out of three matchup involving an uncoordinated Air Force Veteran that speaks 6 different languages and an Army Veteran who has rhythm but only speaks one.  It's starts off pretty good but a phone call separates the two videos on my iPhone 3s.  lol  Watch how the hype builds up more and more and then try to keep from crying in the end.

SPOILER ALERT!  SPOILER ALERT!  As the picture in the middle will lead you to believe, the man holding the grand prize actually lost and made the guy holding up a free bowling game ticket to Splitsville.  During the Christmas season Lighting By Veterans is as generous as possible trying to make everyone's dream come true.  Unfortunately Santa Clause cannot be everywhere but if you can get what you need and keep a smile on your face in the process you're ahead of the game.  -  Ron Robey

Ron Robey and Lighting By Veterans reviewed the new movie Son of God.

SON OF GOD MOVIE REVIEW






Son of God
Son of God movie release was rather personal on the 1st day of March with plenty of empty seats here in Fredericksburg Virginia at the 1pm showing.  There's been quite the hype built up in the film after the Passion of the Christ previously crushed the charts.  3 of the 6 movie previews were a God based movie that's coming out soon.  How awesome is God to be trending in our quick to judge culture and on the largest stage in the world.  The film industry is Americas number one export and Cieon Films has put God at the center of it all.
Son of God with Ron Robey

I have to say that Son of God was more in depth than the Passion of the Christ.  Jesus (played by Diogo Morgado) was timeless as Christopher Spencer (Son of God Director) painted a brilliant picture that's easy to understand.  I can only imagine the number of people who will watch this movie and either make a new decision for Jesus and become saved.  What a great tool for us to have a better understanding of the Bible story and it's characters.  Much like the Passion of the Christ, Son of God left the theater, bathroom and lobby with a dead silent crowd as Ceelo closed the movie out with "Mary did you know."

What do you do when you're on fire for God after the movie and what are the next steps?  Find joy in the songs that I've hyper-linked in and check out elevatelife.com to watch live or On Demand.  Elevate Life Church in Frisco, TX breeds leaders and will teach you what to look for in a home church if it's not yours already.  Pastor Keith Craft is one of the most amazing "Mighty Men" Man of God that hungers for the Son of God Jesus.  You can also enjoy his new book, "Your divine fingerprint"  Elevate you thinking, Elevate your life!

VIETNAM POW VETERAN STEVE KIRBY SHARES HIS STORY

 STEVE KIRBY "WILLIE NELSON" SHARES HIS STORY OF BEING A NAVY SEAL DURING VIETNAM

"Willie leading the way with Progressive Waste Solutions"
Steve Kirby (Willie Nelson) was originally born in Fort Worth, TX where he soon moved to a Garland, TX to live with his mom and step dad. Willie volunteered for the United States Navy in 1971 (after turning 17) in a time when Americans were being drafted.  He signed up to be a Yeoman which is equivalent of being an admin personnel or "desk clerk" in Willies own words.  This would prove to be a safe position with a very low chance of losing your life.

While sitting at his desk in the office he began typing up an available Navy Seal position that needed to be filed immediately.  Willie thinks that he was "just in the right place at the right time" and made it known that he was interested in this assignment.  His supervisor asked, "what experience do you have son?" and Willie replied, "I'm an expert with a rifle, I'm pretty knowledgeable with hand to hand combat, I'm a great swimmer and I have a mean bite!"  After passing a few simple tasks of swimming underwater the entire Olympic sized swimming pool and a few other basic physical requirements Willie began his Seal training.  He learned many skills from jump school, scuba school, explosives training and water survival to name a few.

During the summer of 1972, "Willie" was assigned to a submarine group in Italy because he was the most qualified Seal that was available.  Almost a year had went by before Steve Kirby received his papers announcing his involvement with the SEALS.  A major part of the conflict had declined since 1969 when the campaign was at it's peak but the seals had a hit list like a deck of cards.  Willie would travel in and out of Vietnam throughout the next year on seek and destroy missions.  "Willie" stopped counting the men after his 25th confirmed kill. He sadly realized that every time he would pay another visit to Vietnam, people were killed on our side and theirs.  "They were getting the worst of it," Steve remarked.
"Willie working with American Veterans Fence Company"
In the middle of a firefight in late 73, Willie had been shot by the enemy and 2 Seals from his 5 to 6 man team were tasked with carrying him to the extraction point.  Willie didn't feel like it was fair for the men to carry him and not defend themselves so he demanded to be put down.  The Vietnamese captured him and Willie remembers being in the dark for the next week with only one bright light.  Interrogation tactics were used as rocks were thrown at him in addition to the mental and physical abuse.  He was asked questions like, "Where's your units?" "Are your parents rich?" "Will they pay a ransom to get you back?"  "Is the President your Dad?"  His Navy Seal team came back to rescue him less than a week later.  "Willy" is a POW and has been stabbed 4 times during this military experience.

Almost a year later Willie was vacationing in the Netherlands as his Seal team informed him to hang out with them in the mountains.  Before his vacation was halfway over, he had orders to meet a helicopter in the morning.  This helicopter would take "Willie" to an aircraft carrier where he would catch a flight out.  At the midpoint of the flight without warning "Willie" was ejected from his plane on purpose and he parachuted into the Mediterranean Sea.  Ten minutes later he felt little nibbles on his legs that wouldn't stop.  After punching one man in the face breaking his goggles, the scuba divers surfaced and explained to him his next assignment.  Using the buddy system of sharing the air supply, they descended to the submarine and his new home base.  He later found out that the Admiral was on board and he was about to begin his best and final years in the Navy.

"Our Veterans will not be forgotten"
Shortly after this introduction, Willie had been personally selected to be the Admirals driver and assistant.  Driving the Ford LTD with the 2 star general was not Willies favorite assignment but driving the Porsche from Naples to Rome on the Autobahn was.  Willie remembers getting there in an hour and having the time of his life.  The Admiral also had his own yacht that was between 50 and 75 feet long and would seldom travel between Naples and Sicily.  Many nights of drinking and fishing were memories that he'll never forget and helping the Senior Leadership make their way back to quarters was just part of his duties.

Today "Willie" works with Ron Robey and American Veterans which is a multiple company profile under the AVR&R LLC umbrella.  This corporation helps Veterans find work to support their families.  If you live in the North Texas area and would like employ "Willie" to complete a Fence, Flooring, Roofing, SEO, Christmas Light Installation or any other minor/major Handyman work please call 469-215-8758.
