We Cast Our Vote Today!

My husband and I had to vote absentee ballot today.  Interesting to me that I had to stand in line for about 20 minutes to get to vote! But Whoopee!

We are leaving on a building mission trip for approximately 2 weeks so I probably will not be blogging during this time.  If you follow our blog… or no *Read* our blog you know by now I’m fairly conservative yet totally non-judgmental for who you are.  I may not agree with everything others write but am willing to listen.  I KNOW what I believe!  I KNOW WHY I believe it! Guess you can call me one stubborn Kentucky Hillbilly! (a lot of people do:-)

So I guess I just have to say what’s on my mind and step over the boundary of politically correctness.  Please Vote!

—I find it disturbing that the only media that is covering the tragedy that occurred in Bengazi is Fox News. Our government let four Americans die for political reasons, and, to so many, it doesn’t matter. Yes, I absolutely believe our President watched it happen. Father of slain Seal speaks out.

—Also find it disturbing that our president lifted the restraints on abortion, partial birth abortions, and live abortions. That means if a baby survives the procedure and lives, it cannot receive medical attention. It takes a special kind of sickness in the head to vote against giving medical assistance to premature babies who managed to survive an abortion attempt, and allowing them to die of suffocation, dehydration, and exposure.  Yet this is now the official stance of the DNC.  As a Senator, Obama voted three  times in support of infanticide.

―I am troubled by the fact that we have a president who has NEVER been to Israel, yet he invited a group of  muslims to the white house to observe a muslim holiday. And we canceled the National Day of Prayer?

―I think we ought to be concerned that the man who gave the closing prayer during Obama’s inauguration made the statement the he believed all “White People” are going to hell!  I sure am glad I am NOT trusting in him to get me to Heaven!  But my trust is in Christ alone.

―I will vote, according to my conscience, and then I will forget about it. God is ultimately in control, and He set up, even wicked kings, to accomplish His purpose. I have read the last chapter, and I know how the story ends!!   ~Jen

Sometimes You Just Have To Say It!

I posted this (as a note) on my facebook page about a year ago.  The older I get the more patience I have with some things and the less patience I have with others.  Go figure!  I know I would be a much better mother today but I would be much less tolerant of racism and ignorance!

Green Apple Bread? Yes Please!

I did not make this but Oh. My. Goodness. was it ever delicious!  Of course, any kind of bread is my weakness. I could live on bread and box cereal. Now isn’t that healthy?

I follow Teresa’s Blog and she has been posting some amazing bread recipes!  I just drool…. Check them out!

Don’t Ever Give Up On YOU!

Slip In Some Extra Joy

This week while being at the table of some high profile political people, My husband was asked the question of “Who are some of the most interesting people you have been able to work with?”  They expected to hear political names but he gave his “heroes” of the Gospel and an acknowledgment of what made them a hero in his eyes.

Later that night as I replaying the whole evening and the amazing event, I thought of how I would have answered that question. But the people who come to my mind first are the ones whose names probably no one would recognize.

Is This Really Happening…Yes, It Is!

Is it any wonder that we have a major problem with sex trafficking in America? We have a candidate that is using sex in his advertising and is totally demoralizing to women! Do we have to sexualize everything?  Even down to the office of the President of the United States?

This is not about being a Democrat or a Republican this is about standing up for the right of women.  Now we’re seeing an ad that wants young first-time voters to imagine that pulling the lever is like having sex with that candidate. What makes it even worse is that it is endorsed by his campaign! My first time ad is so disgusting!  Pro lifers respond to it.

I Know Where There’s Water

I follow a blog,Genie, and this is a is re-blogged. She has some amazing posts!  I encourage everyone to follow her.  She is one of my favorite. This one reminded me of the verse: John 7:37-38 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. 38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

in a dry and arid land

i know where there’s water

in the scorching desert sand

i know where there’s water,

there is a secret place to go

where the living waters flow

to refresh a thirsting soul,

i know where there’s water

 

it stands high up on a hill,

where no one dares to kill.

sharing with all, they will

give without a hidden bill;

oh and what a joyous thrill

to no longer be spiritually ill

…come, and drink to the fill.

  

in a dry and arid land

i know where there’s water

in the scorching desert sand

i know where there’s water,

there is a secret place to go

where the living waters flow

to refresh a thirsting soul,

i know where there’s water
