Hold On To Your Bonnets


The American people are in for a wild ride. While a lot of blame can be laid at the feet of George W. Bush, he alone did not get our country into it's current funk. There are many political and economical factors that have contributed to his disdain. It's always easy to blame the guy at the top of the pig pile, but he has been held up there by members of both parties. There is no perfect politician ... and THE ONE that is being ushered in may be charming, smooth talking, good looking, but he has a mysterious and daunting past.

The shift in America ... moral issues, corruption, deceit, deviant lifestyles are shoved in the faces of God fearing people who have been told they are hateful homophobes, bigots, zealots for protecting unborn life above the right of a woman's choice. How has evil become good? How can darkness creep in and take root in our society? When evil becomes good ... good people become evil by hiding. If you have Judeo/Christian beliefs .... now more than any recent time ... LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE!

14"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.

Matthew 14:16 (NIV)

In the week to come, I will be sharing something on my post regarding this very topic. A comment meant for my daughter on her blog resulted in an exchange between myself and an Obama supporter. Suffice it to say, I am (in her eyes) all those very negative things you mentioned. She also considers herself a Christian. There were times when I became indignant and wanted to respond in the flesh but I covered it in prayer. I have found myself SINCERELY praying for her and am saddened and frustrated at how satan has deceived so many people into thinking they're Christians when they have never professed Jesus Christ as Savior!

Sheesh, if I keep writing I'll wind up putting MY post on YOUR comments!
