God, how am I supposed to do this? How do I raise kids in a world that is running from you?
How do I explain things -that I learned at a much later age -to my children because society has shoved it’s agenda in their faces?
How do I protect their innocence as long as possible? How do I teach them to be leaders and not followers? How do I show them that not everyone gets a trophy in real life? How do I encourage them to not follow the crowd? How do I encourage them to stand up to the bully, and to cheer on the underdog? How do I give them the tools they need to stand strong and be bold in the midst of great adversity? How do I teach them to love people but not necessarily the sin that causes separation from you? How do I show them to speak up when everyone else is silent? How do I cheer for greatness, when average is what’s in? How do I inform them that they may walk alone, when they choose what’s right?

God, I ask for your strength, your direction, your guidance-I cannot do this on my own-I need you like never before.
I CAN do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
In Jesus name- Amen.

Psalms 91 always provides me peace, this verse particularly-“He who dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High, shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”

My youngest sister is getting her graduate degree at a small southern college. When she was back home over the holidays she told me a story that literally just shines light on the total voting ignorance of the majority of Americans.
She says that she was conversing with some other students and the topic turned to politics. A young woman loudly proclaimed: ‘Oh shoot… I am Aaaalllll about Hillary 2016, yawl!’
My sister, when hearing this said, ‘really….why?’
The young woman just said, ‘I just am.’ My sister pursued…’no tell me why!? Tell me why Hillary Clinton would make a great president?’
The girl replied ‘she just would ok…’
That Right there is why we are where we are as a country!
People readily backing a candidate just cause.

Ughhhh-If I chose to succumb to this -perhaps desired by many silence just to appease -than I have no spine. Worse, I’d be a traitor…not to my country alone but to what’s most important to me-my children.

Oh please…stop being so dramatic…you might say…..well…. I say wake the hell up!

While the majority of Americans have been busy with their own lives, and trusting the Government to handle the political ‘stuff ‘ our country has gone to s%*t!
Poverty is at an all time high, more people are on food stamps than ever, we are no longer viewed as the strong world leader and the federal debt has increased 90% since Obama has taken office and is expected to double before he bids farewell….(factcheck.org)
Do you realize if we don’t stop spending like we are, our kids don’t have a chance! Each tax payer currently and technically is more than roughly $148,021in debt! What if the bill collector wants to collect? Who says your own checking, saving or 401k is safe?
Oh but that would be unconstitutional and would infringe on your rights…right? Ummmm have you not noticed that the current administration is literally making a mockery of your constitutional rights daily???? What rights you have are being taken…..slowly and steadily.

You see, if I just do nothing, if I just stay quiet, than my children will never know I cared.

Burying your head in the ground is only going to fuel this fiasco!
