Today is Father's Day! So many thoughts come to mind of the fathers I have and love.
First, there is my Heavenly Father, without Him I can do nothing.
Second, there is my own father, who loves me no matter the time or distance or circumstances that separate us.
Then, I have the father of my children, WOW! He is amazing and wonderful, and God knew he was the best father for our children!
Next, I have 2 father in laws! Both give so much to my family with their love and time and experience...

So I simply and lovingly say to all my fathers, and most of all to God, my Father-
Happy Father's Day, Dad!!!! I love you!

I Believe...

"It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people." - Pravda ru (a Russian newspaper) on April 27th, 2009

I believe that God can change the progress of our current administrations social, economical and political policies. I believe that God's heart can be turned away from destroying America if Americans will get on their knees and pray, and seek God's face, and turn from their wicked ways. I've read in the Bible where those things have happened.

Sunday, our Preacher opened to the book of Matthew, and preached about following afar off, but my eyes wandered back to verse 56 of chapter 26 (the 2nd part), which reads "...Then all the disciples forsook Him and fled." How sad that His own disciples who had seen so many miracles done by His hands; as He healed the lame, gave blind their sight, make the sick whole, even raised up the dead! These very disciples did not believe that He had the power to protect himself or them from a rowdy bunch of politicians!

But the very first part of that verse tells the whole story! In Matthew 26:56a Jesus says "But all this was done, that Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled..."

I cannot stand here and tell you that I believe that God WILL change his mind, because it's obvious that the Scriptures are about to be fulfilled. As terrifying as that can be, it is also an exciting time for the Christian who is ready. I DO believe that it is time for all those who are not a Christian to evaluate their spiritual position, and seek advice from the only person who has the Truth. Jesus Christ.

"I believe that Jesus is the Holy Son of God, who came to earth and lived a perfect life.

I believe He bled and died upon a cruel cross, and He became the perfect sacrifice.

I believe He rose again, and that He lives today. And soon He's coming back to earth again.

More than just a creed, this is what I believe: Jesus is the only way.

This is my Statement of Faith."
