I wrote this for my brothers and sisters that believe in freedom and stand against corruption. We stand together or we fall. #WeThePeople are the key to #freedom & protecting our #Constitution but we have to fight - peacefully and with wisdom - but without fear or hesitation. I hope this is meaningful. #Truth #MAGA #usa #GodWins #freedom #SaveAmerica

A Personal Note About Fighting the Fight for Freedom
TOM RENZ
SEP 9, 2023
When I write and share things on Substack and elsewhere I trying to tie things to issues relevant to the fight. For those that don’t know the fight is a term I generally use to describe the collective fight for freedom and against tyranny and corruption - election fraud, COVID, CBDCs, climate change fraud, etc. In this stack I’m going to make things more personal on my end. I hate sharing things about myself but the entire basis of what my approach is to put it all out there, lead with integrity, and recognize that I will frequently fail but continue to try with a true heart. With that I want to share that my goal is to let my brothers and sisters that are considering going the fight know what it looks like and some of the things you deal with when you are just a regular guy that gives himself entirely to the fight for God, family, country, and freedom.
The first thing I want to put out there is the strange line I walk in terms of being someone that never wanted to be known and someone that has to provide an example to others like me as to how to fight.== There is only one way to lead effectively and that is to lead with your heart. This means that if you are disingenuous or fake people will figure that out so you need to put it out there for real. For a private person to share their actual heart with the world is not easy because it will be attacked directly and, frankly, if you’re not strong it will destroy you (I’ve been close several times). That said, it’s been my experience that when I tell God I’m about to fall off the edge he backs me up (I’ll discuss the necessity of faith in the fight in the future).
Leading with your heart and standing for all you believe does another thing. It makes you powerful. I ONLY fight for things I believe in to my core. I hate liars and, while I fall short as a man, a Christian, and even as a warrior frequently the drive to stand for what I believe has been strong enough to overcome my injured pride when my enemies (and sometimes friends) jam those shortcomings down your throat.
Of equal importance the fact that I fight from the heart creates another strange situation - anger and pain. I suppose anger is one of my Christian shortcomings but I have it and it usually stems from pain. It hurts when I see bad things happening to good people, when friends and allies fall short, when I fail, and when I fail my family, friends, allies, and God. The hurt can shut you down or you can use it to fight twice as hard. I do the latter and I’m my experience that is the defining difference between a warrior and someone that isn’t.
Anger is an important thing to understand if your going all in on the fight because you WILL experience it a LOT. Jesus didn’t do much anger (turned the tables of the money changers) but it’s not something I can stop when I see injustice so I do my best to use it correctly. When we talk about anger from a warrior’s perspective you have to understand that the reason athletes and commentators talk so much about heart in a sport (boxing, football, etc.) is ==that the person our team playing with all their heart has a HUGE advantage over someone going through the motions. This helps make me effective because the people I fight are doing so for money or power - I’m fighting FOR a cause and with anger over injustice.
