Looking ahead

While I am sick about the events that brought us President-elect Barack Hussein Obama, I am doing my best to trust that God is in control. As a born again Christian I know that God can do anything. God can use ungodly men to further His kingdom just as He uses Godly men. He is not in Heaven this morning changing His "game plan". He knew this was going to happen. He is only sad if Christians don't trust Him with this decision. We will get through this.
Thankfully, even though the state of California did vote for Barack Hussein Obama, they did pass the ban on Gay Marriage amendment, along with the 2 other states that had this on the ballot. That is something.
I believe that this could be God bringing Christians to our knees. I, for one am on my knees. I will pray for Obama & Biden. God can change an evil man's heart or He can use the evil man for the betterment of His kingdom.
So, in closing, I am not going to lose sleep over this. I am going to trust God & I am going to live the life He wants me to. I am also going to thank Him daily for the miracles that I live with every single day....They were people from the moment they were conceived & the knowledge of that should be above no one's pay grade!

God & Religion

A relative, to remain unnamed, says that we are not electing a preacher, we are electing a president. My question, not to her because I don't care what she has to say, but to anyone else is this, Why would I keep my core beliefs out of my decision for president? My core belief is that we were created by God Almighty & He sent His precious SON (His baby!!) to die on a cross so that I would be allowed into His Heaven if I accept Him as my Lord & Savior! This belief should form my opinions in all matters.
All decisions that I have made in my life have not been centered on this idea. The decisions that I have made in my life that were for myself & without thinking about what God thinks have ended in disaster in my life. Even now, all my decisions are not centered where they should be. I am working on that & trying very hard to always think of what God wants me to do.
So, again, why would I keep my beliefs out of my decision for president? I wouldn't! My beliefs are my fundamental center. My core beliefs are what makes me who I am. My decisions are based on what I believe! My beliefs are not a religion but a relationship with my Creator.
Abortion is my number one issue. I don't believe that God appreciates a woman's "right to choose". God, our Father, knows us by name & knit us together in our mother's womb. He knows the number of hairs on our heads. There is no one that can tell me that He is happy that people have made murdering His precious children okay.
I feel sorry for a person that thinks they can keep their fundamental beliefs out of their decisions. You can't because what you believe is who you are. Maybe some don't believe in anything & I really feel sorry for those people.
I will not sell out my future or the future of my children by voting for the most liberal Senator in Washington! Liberals have given us legal abortion, the idea that homosexual marriage should be accepted & welfare. I will be voting for John McCain & Sarah Palin on November 4th. I am praying without ceasing that people would wake up & see Barack Obama for the danger that he is. There are people that are so blinded by their own ignorance that no matter what happens they will be voting for Obama but for anyone that is on the fence or that actually has core convictions the choice is glaringly clear.
I hope next Tuesday all Christians will vote their core beliefs & convictions. I will be!

The Biggest Reason I'm A Conservative Republican

The thing that makes me sick during an election year is the unknown. By that I mean you really can't know until the end of the day whether or not anyone actually listened to what the candidates were actually saying. There is a group, hopefully small, that vote for the liberal guy no matter what. They don't really know what he stands for because he's never actually said what he stands for. He's used alot of smoke & mirrors & for a liberal who is not much of a thinker he sounds "eloquent". They think having "liberal" ideals makes them cool or sophisticated when really it just makes them wrong.
Liberal ideals have given us legal abortion. Murdering the closest people to completely innocent that there is. Then, if one of these INNOCENT BABIES make it through the attempted abortion liberal ideals have said that it's okay to go ahead & "finish the job" so that the mother is not "burdened". Barack Obama said in a speech, talking about "educating" kids about pregnancy & STD & the issue coming up with his daughters, "I don't want her punished with a baby or an STD at 16". PUNISHED WITH A BABY! Are you kidding me? Did you know that Barack Obama has already said that he would sign a bill called "The Freedom of Choice Act" within his first 100 days. This act would make ANY abortion, late-term & even partial birth, legal. They use the line "because of the mother's health". I believe that it will be open season on precious unborn babies if he is elected.
This issue alone is enough for me to detest liberalism & all that it stands for. While there are countless other issues, this one should make anyone think twice before voting. I will continue to pray every time this election crosses my mind. I hope that all Christians will pray! I know God will hear our prayers.

Trying this again!

I'm not super poetic & I'm not really a writer but I do want to create an outlet for my thoughts & what's going on, so here goes.

I am 31 years old, (ugh!), I live in Mississippi & have for my entire life! I am married to the love of my life, Kevin. He is incredibly special & I am so lucky to have found him. We have 3 beautiful little boys. Eli is 4 years old & so sweet. He is so shy & mostly laid back. He, like all of us, has his moments. Joshua is 2 years old & also sweet, but strong willed. He is not at all shy or laid back. He loves for everything to be going his way! Jacob is almost 4 months old. He was born on June 22 & I don't think there has ever been a sweeter baby. He always has a big, beautiful smile for anyone that talks to him & he is a cuddler. Of course, all of my boys love to cuddle which works out well because I do, too!

I work part-time outside the home. I am only away from the boys about 4 hours per day. I try to look at it as a nice break. The boys either stay home with Kevin, (he works 2nd shift, 3pm to 11pm) or they stay with my mom. That is really a life saver. I wouldn't be able to leave them if I had to take them to daycare! At least this way I know that they are with people that love them the way I do! Anyway, I've worked for Covenant Express for 9 1/2 years. Really, since I was a child (22 years old). I've learned alot there & I am glad to work there.

We plan to homeschool our kids. I was homeschooled & I liked it & with the endoctrination that goes on in public schools now I don't want someone else to teach my kids how they should think. I think that happens far too often in schools.

I am a born-again Christian. I was saved by grace when I was 6 years old. I have had times when I wasn't walking the Christian life as I should & for those times I am truely sorry. Luckily, I have a Savior that forgives my trespasses & loves me through all of it! I was blessed to be raised in a family that loves the Lord & that has always been a part of our lives. For that I am eternally thankful (literally)!

I am, I guess, what you would call an "Extreme Right-Wing Conservative". I suppose a liberal might even call me a "Kook", but I have very conservative values. I enjoy politics, mostly. They do begin to drive me crazy after a while but I believe our freedoms depend on who we elect to public office. The presidential election that is coming up, I believe, may be the most important of our lifetime. We will make a decision on November 4th that could change the whole make-up of our country. While neither candidate is ideal, in my opinion, I believe that John McCain is the best choice. Barack Obama has dreams of changing our Capitalist country into a Socialist country, ie: redistributing wealth & creating an even bigger welfare state than what we already have.

I tend to be a bit of a worrier, so I will be happy when the election is over. All I know to do about the election, besides vote, is pray hard & pray often.

Well, that's a little about me. I am just a regular girl. I love God, I love my family & I love my country. I am very fortunate in many ways.
