Election Day is here!

Unless you've just crawled out from underneath of that proverbial rock, you well know that tomorrow is Election Day here in the good ole' U.S. of A.
Regardless of what some might think, it is important to exercise your right to vote, citizen!
Now, some of you might be downright sure of whom will receive your vote. THEN, there's those of you sitting on the fence (which CAN be a little uncomfortable to say the very least).
I know, I know I'm treading in rocky waters when it comes to discussing politics. However, I just want to think some things out loud with you to affirm my choice as well as helping you to decide. 

Okay, so you're still reading... that's good. We're all friends here :)
Let's look at a couple things that I can say with certainty in which I will not waiver in my opinion...

1.    Same Sex 'Marriage' - 
       a man following God's precepts in this regard is the way to go.
       God ordained marriage between a man and a woman, ONLY
       not because He made any mistake,but because it is His design.

2.     Abortion - 
        murder is murder. An unborn baby is a baby... (that's why we call him an "unborn baby"!)
        This argument is all well and good when an expectant mother is gunned down killing her and/or her unborn child. Justice is sought in the courts for both lives, being equally important.

3.     Welfare type benefits - 
        2 Thes 3:10 says if a man WILL NOT work, he SHALL NOT eat. 
        Of course this doesn't apply to those truly incapable of working. It is our job to care for the widows and orphans and the like.

4.    Borrowing - 
       "The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender."
                                                               Proverbs 22:7
         and by the way, has anyone seen that commercial of a roomful of Chinese in a lecture with the speaker (in Chinese w/ subtitles) talking about how America now works for China? It's futuristic - 2036 AD. Very disturbing.

5.     Quality of the Man - 
         Which man more holds to principles that set him above others? 
          Will the man you choose more concerned with the perception of our country or the perception of himself?
         Will the man you choose be more or less likely to be concerned with talk show appearances & beer SUMMITS  (not picnics!) on the White House back patio?
          How about his VP? Is he well-mannered?  Would he use profanity in front of the entire county? 
         (yes, Chris Christie, you also are guilty of this, SO knock it off!)

So, as for the economy... great economic strategists battle over what to do. Although, the whole borrowing thing should be enough said about that. I mean how high DO numbers go? I don't want to find out! 
Personally, if you can't tell after reading this far, I know how I will vote - based on my few points as well as the fact that after 4 years of unfulfilled economic promises, it's time for a new guy to give it a go. 
Mr. Obama at least fibbed once, that's plain to see - he IS seeking re-election yet did NOT fix the economy
“If I don’t have this done in three years, then this is going to be a one‑term proposition.” - Barack Obama (www.glennbeck.com)


Hoping I didn't REALLY offend anyone, I'm done. Ready for bed, Ready for a new day. Rest assured God's choice will be in office this January to serve whatever purpose He has in store for us!
Remember, we are blessed and privileged to be in this great land, 
SO GET OUT THERE TOMORROW AND VOTE!

  1. Amen ! I pray that a "supernatural" amount of Christian voters like yourself, come out to vote for the Biblical principles this country was founded on. I pray that God will heal our country and forgive our sins of gross indifference to HIM and self gratification. If not I pray "COME, LORD JESUS."

  3. God bless you Raina for having the guts to stick with God's word and stand on His side! He already holds the future secure in His hands and this election isn't taking Him by surprise it was planned since the beginning of time to bring about His purposes. Yes we have a duty as citizen's to participate in the election of government officials but I am praying for His Kingdom to come and His will be done regardless of the outcome of our choices!
