OH! - BOMB! - MA! or "OH-Bottom"

Ok - What AM I doing up. It's 1:39 and the day before Thanksgiving - no it IS Thanksgiving. I need to go to bed but I just wanted to first say I'm glad the election is over. I'm NOT happy that Obama won, but we must now support and pray for our president that the Lord will bring Daniels around him and give him good advice. Now I have to get my kids to stop calling him the affectionate names we gave him before. Names like "OH-Bottom" and "OH! (pause) -BOMB! (pause)- MA!" That one is like someone saying "OH!", then pointing to a BOMB and then calling for their Mommy! My kids seemed to like it when I thought it up. Anyway, I gotta get to bed. Goodnight!

"WWJV" Who Would Jesus Vote?

I know, I know - here I go again talking politics. Our country is only 3 days away from perhaps one of the most important elections in the history of our nation. So much is at stake and so much is needed to be fixed in our country.
I'm still amazed how some people are still on the fence. What is even more amazing to me is some people who I know and love are voting for Obama. I just don't understand it. It seems to me that the choice is really obvious - especially since some of these people I know to love God!
Thus the reason for this blog. I feel it is important to note this very fact: God judges a nation by morality and not by prosperity and circumstances. God promised in 2 Chronicles 7:14 "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray , and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. " Yes, that scripture verse was first spoken to the Jewish people, but God's Word is the same yesterday and today and bridges far more than just the historical aspect of it. Each verse is packed with history as well as national and individual practical instruction. God promises that a land, a people, a nation, will only be healed when the people of that nation turns to God for the answer and help.
In Biblical times where Baal and Molech was worshipped, the worshippers would often engage in orgies and children and babies were often sacrificed to them. I once heard a pastor explain that they would lay babies on the red-hot headed hands of the statue and have the children burned. Sound familiar? But where are these worshippers today? They no longer exist as a people and their God is now on display in various museums around the world. Elijah had 800 of them killed in one day when he proved that God was the one and only true God. God brought down judgement.
Yes we have government with run-away spending, yes mortgages are at stake, yes we need to do something with our health care system and protect our social security and such (and yes, our troops need to come home) Truthfully though, if we only choose a candidate by economics only, we may as well slap God in the face. I know that sound harsh, but we cannot put our faith in any candidate. Only God can get us out of our mess and he WON'T honor our prayers as a nation of HIS PEOPLE choose on economics alone. We MUST choose morality - MUST!
Now it is sad that since the beginning of the Iraq war, over 3,000 of our solders have fallen and over 30,000 have been wounded. I want to see this war end as any red-blooded American and I want to see the troops come home too - but with dignity and not in defeat.
But Obama makes a big issue of the casualties of the Iraq war and seems to care nothing about the casualties of Roe vs. Wade. Both American soliders and babies lives are meaningful! If all the casualties of all the American wars from past history were added together, the amount wouldn't be even close to the amount of United States citizens that have been killed through abortion since 1973. Over 50 MILLION United States citizens were never given a voice in our country! They were never given the choice to live. Doesn't The Constitution speak againist not giving Americans the right to free speech? Isn't that a voice? Why is it that people aren't hearing the screams of the babies?
Obama is making it an issue that our soldiers are dying in Iraq, but the thousands of babies are the true casualties of war - the war of Roe vs. Wade and it's been wagging since 1973! Please, Please, Choose Life! And yes, I want to see our troops home too! Support them and also let’s support women to keep their baby!
Please watch the 4 minute (very well done) video in post above and see for yourself. These are the candidates speaking in their own words and you will be amazed on the stark contrast between these two on this issue. I showed it to my 12-year old and he said, "Mom, just thing of how many new things some of those babies could have invented." He is right. Some of those cast-away babies would be 35 and in their prime. Perhaps we have killed the next Thomas A. Edison, Alexander Graham Bell or Henry Ford. Perhaps the next great doctor to cure cancer or someone who could have become the President of the United States.
Also, for all you Bush haters out there, please don't let your feelings get in the way of what you know is the right choice.
So in conclusion, I must say, please remember God is in control and we must have faith that if we vote with morality in mind and not just economics, then we would have voted according to God's Word. Just think to yourself, "WWJV" - "Who Would Jesus Vote" Not I know Jesus would only vote for God, but I just coined the extression to help you the voter to think in Bibical terms when you cast your vote.
