Finally!

Wow! It's about time I caught up with the rest of the "blog world." Hopefully I can keep my blog updated!

As I sit here soaking up all that has happened this week, I am reminded of the huge burden I have for this country. People are so brainwashed! Satan really has led some people astray. I can't tell you how sad and disappointed I am in many fellow believers voting for a man who in no way, shape, or form reflects any of Christ's teachings. The past few weeks our pastor at FBC Smyrna has been doing a series on the first three chapters of Genesis, how it all began. In one sermon Pat made a statement about how we view the beginning shapes our ethical decisions. So true!

It is also disheartening to hear Americans state"Finally, I am proud to be an American." What? My father is a retired Air Force col. and my brother-in-law is currently serving in the Air Force all the way in New Mexico! My own father FOUGHT for YOUR FREEDOM! As did many others. How dare American's base their patriotisim on a particular president? A candidate? Patriotism is being PROUD of your country, not a president elect.

I am increasingly becoming convicted for people in this country. How many lies will people believe? My heart is heavy and sad, but it is not without hope. Although I was disappointed in the outcome, I have a hope and trust in our Savior! Our God is a mighty God! He is on His throne today! He can hold the entire universe in his hand. His Hand! My God is awesome. And I will cling to His promises and hold fast to his truths.
