Take a stand!


Sue over at Praise and Coffee sums it up so well. Please take a moment to read her post titled, "I vote for Life". I am astounded at the amount of christians that are voting for someone who is for abortion, as well as partial birth, late term abortion. Our country is one of the only countries that allows this horrific act. So many people have been led to believe that this "option" is one they are entitled to, and that it is a choice they can live with. Many people do not realize that those who have had abortions are living with the pain and regret every day of their lives. I cannot imagine standing before God one day and trying to explain why I voted for someone who does not support life-and the miracles of His creation. Whether my vote wins or not, my conscience will be at peace.
I pray that christians out there will not allow fear of an uncertain economic future to be at the forefront of their minds this election. I pray they will make the right decision.
May you be blessed!!

Michele,

Very well said. I will be taking a stand too. In spite of an uncertain economic future, those are the issues that I look at too...I know God is going to take care of us no matter what the economy looks like, and I want to stand before HIM with a clear conscious too...knowing I voted for the candidate(s) that stand for the right thing. I really respect you for voicing this!

Have a great weekend!
Tammy
