Going Political on Ya

Isn't it funny how we hear our mother's voice all the days of our lives? I just wiped up the bathroom and cleaned up the kitchen. My mom told me when I was a young bride; "Keep the bathroom and your kitchen cleaned up up and your house will always look tidy." I heard her voice as I was cleaning the sinks and commodes. Yep, Mom, your teachings are still alive and active thirty years after you shed your first body for your heavenly home. "I love you, Mom. You were gone way too soon from my life. Even though you would be ninety, I could still enjoy sharing life with you."

I'm turning political on you now, so those of you who know my bent and don't agree can tune me out for today. I received in my emails a voter's guide. It took a bit of linking to finally get to where I could get some information but when I did, I clicked on "comparisons" for Mc Cain and Obama. As I went down the check list of issues, I was amazed and horrified. Of all the values that are dear to me, Obama was against each one. I called Ken and had him look at the data. He wanted to print it immediately but I was on this lap top so couldn't do it. I asked him why in the world anyone with a smidgeon of morality would vote for such a man. He told me that people want change and he offers change from George Bush. I asked him how stupid it would be to invite the kind of poison which he represents into our culture just because of a resentment to George Bush. Doesn't make any sense to me. Does it to you?

Lauri and I were watching Fox news yesterday and gathering up the latest on the campaign. Last week Lauri had been negative, thinking our side didn't have a ghost of a chance. She told me last night that she confessed her negativity and lack of faith to God and asked Him again for a miracle to save our nation. I told her that I had cried out to Him in a loud voice yesterday, reminding Him again that there are many of His people waiting on Him to act. Oh, God, grant us mercy. I must say, I have faith in His mercy. Lauri then said she also told Him that she knew He could work around and beyond Obama if Obama is His will for us. I cringe at the thought but I know tis true. All rulers are subject to God, the true God. I don't think He has much patience for one that says he believes in God and then votes for everything contrary to His moral code.
