It’s probably better….. now that I think about it… I probably need to rewrite it anyway…. I have some of the story on audio on my first three reels of Instagram, there’s a picture of my childhood house on each post, the same picture on the first three posts…. Some of this backstory is in there. And also Jessica Reed Kraus has published me on her platform, and also recorded me when we first met at UCLA last spring… she titled it meet bud seigel I put that on my Substack feed…. I think I might speak about some of this during that impromptu recording she made….. I was hesitant to let her put it out there, but I had asked God to send somebody with a platform to first put me on, before I ever went on social media myself. I wanted that also as a testament, along with a litany of other things that God has done… almost impossible things with witnesses over decades. I will rewrite that first note this morning. It is part of a long story, one chapter where I died in 1998 in New York City, and popped out of my body. It is the key thing that gave me my conviction that Jesus Christ is God.
There’s a lot more I had to break it up and pieces so I’m going to send some in a little bit after I get some coffee I am exhausted…. I hope it’s not too much.
Just saw a live feed some mayor in California talking about saving California… of course it’s the fire department the fires… it’s always something that nobody is offended or has a problem with… in other words, it’s something that will do nothing to help anybody in California or this world. It wouldn’t matter if there was water in the fire hydrants it wouldn’t matter if there was no fire it wouldn’t matter if the entire state of California is burning… because that wouldn’t really be a problem in God’s eyes….. what I can’t fathom is the fact that I saw a stage in the middle of Santa Monica Blvd. last June on a Saturday morning at 10 AM near the synagogue on Shabbat… with 12 year-old boys, dancing in girls bikinis, wearing angel wings and groan. Drag queens cheering them on with tons of women with strollers and babies and balloons in the audience Nissan and Toyota there were places to get gift bags for the kids. If I was Mom, I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night knowing my child could be exposed to this. As somebody who knows exactly what happens to any kid who is exposed to these people transsexuals and others like that….the damage is irreversible not to mention the child will grow up, and most likely engage in all kinds of sexual activity… drugs…. Everything shepherd from God man, woman child family community….. I don’t even see these fires has been anything to talk about… to me, it’s a distraction and shows a populace, either blind, or intentionally ignorant for whatever the reason
This platform is cool, but I don’t know what I’m doing when it comes to messaging and receiving messages…. It seems like I lose my comments., and then, if somebody responds, there’s nothing there, and then I end up finding a page with all my comments…. So it looks like I’m commenting on something that isn’t even there., with half my comments missing…. Hahahahahahaha maybe the algorithm from Instagram follow me over here
Very bummed out…. I left a long letter. I deleted the most important part by accident, because I thought this was like Instagram and the delete function was at the top. But the little ellipses are at the bottom of these messages. Figures….. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten anything right on these things at first try…. Anytime I have ever tapped on something to see if it was the correct thing to tap, it is always, 100% of the time, the wrong thing…. I usually end up deleting something I didn’t want to erase
I’m so sorry to hear that. I’ve done that myself and it can be very frustrating. Sometimes I think they make these things intentionally tricky. Thank you for taking the time to respond. I greatly appreciate it.
Right? and when you think about it, why would the ellipsis be on the bottom of the note page? It makes the first note, and then the second note, have the little dots between them…. When it would make more sense to have those little dots at the top of the first note, so there’s no question….
I completely agree. But for those who don't know God at all, they need a gentler approach. Jesus demonstrated God's truth by serving others, and showing them God's better way to live. I hope to be someone who can show others why a life in faith is amazing. God bless.
That is great too but, I don’t think anything can beat a mind-blowing revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ. It’s the only thing that will cause us to give our lives for Him and then by His life in us we will reveal Him to the world. God bless you too.
"When the evil one tricks us into settling, we lose and God loses."
God never loses.
We lose the opportunity to experience His Spirit working through us to accomplish His will, but that is only a loss for us, not God. He is not dependent on us to accomplish His will, so He never loses.
I certainly understand what you are saying. And perhaps I should have been clearer there. It was not to say that God himself loses because as you said He never loses but rather that He loses out on us if/when we settle. His heart aches for every one of His children that are lost.
That's still one of my favorites! It's time to pull it out in beginning of year, yearly! Our Sovereign God is everywhere! And He's got our lives worked out! Those are some of the deep lessons I learned in college when we had to read it for English 101! A public college! Great book after the Holy Bible! 🙌👑🙌🦋
I accidentally deleted the beginning of that comment I left or story I should say… I’m going to have to rewrite it. I think it’s worth sharing. It’s a testament to Jesus Christ. And a pretty cool story in general…. I would say if anybody had a testament to God., and it was some boring story…. That wouldn’t make much sense.

Beautiful as always Mike - Let Go and Let God. Not at all easy but it so is the right path.
Thank you Terry. I appreciate that. It’s all about the Lord and what He has done for us. Not easy for sure but, simply incredible when you behold it.
God Bless.

I agree with everything except this line:
"When the evil one tricks us into settling, we lose and God loses."
God never loses.

Thank you and God bless.
The one who succombs to evil loses.
Appreciated. Reminds me of The Christian’s Secret of a Happy Life by Hannah Whitall Smith.
Thank you. I’m not familiar with that but will definitely look it up.
God Bless.
It’s a classic from the author of Hinds’ Feet on High Places, a beautiful allegorical book.
That's still one of my favorites! It's time to pull it out in beginning of year, yearly! Our Sovereign God is everywhere! And He's got our lives worked out!

Amen
Interesting. I’m very intrigued. Thank you for sharing it.
Beautiful ideas and deep thoughts
Thank you so much. I really appreciate that.
God bless.
