Some Thoughts

Last night, as Bryce and I were flipping through channels on the tv, we found out that the government had passed the new healthcare bill. Now, I honestly don't know alot about the bill. Bryce informs me of what is going on with government all the time, as he listens to talk radio all day long.

While the democrats are excited because this is "history in the making", its kind of scary for the rest of us. Supposedly, 75% of Americans did not want this bill to pass. Yet, the people that we have voted in to these offices, are not representing the people as they should be. That is their job. Many have gone behind closed doors and made ammendments to these bills, secretly, I might add, like the Gadianton Robbers of old. And it worries me, because it is exactly what Satan wants to see happen to us as a nation, as a free country, as a "God-fearing" people.

In the scriptures, it states over and over again, that as long as "we keep the commandments, we will prosper in the land", but "inasmuch as you don't keep the commandments, you will be cut off from His prescence." Now, if we will study the history of America and the Revolutionary War, we can't deny that our Heavenly Father had a hand in establishing this great country. And it has been a blessed and chosen land since the creation of the world. I have read lots of books on the revolutionary war and I am amazed and touched by the fact that Heavenly Father preserved this nation, and everything fell into place during that war. Even down to the little details, like the weather changing, so we could hide from the enemy or fog clearing up so we could see the enemy coming. The Hand of Providence was watching over our nation, and will continue to watch over us as long as we stay faithful and do those things that our pleasing unto the Lord.

I have been saddened by the fact that we, as a country, voted into office, a president that does not believe in God. Our founding fathers believed and trusted in God. They established and set up our constitution under the direction of God, and now we have a president that does not even believe in a Supreme Being...He believes in himself and wants to have all the power and that is why the government is slowly taking over all that we have. We may not notice it now, but the governments has us in a pot of warm water and they are slowly turning up the heat! We are in trouble as a nation.

Our new president has not been in office for very long, and look at all the changes that have occurred in that short time. We are in more debt as a nation, then we have ever been before. We have a president that is ok with abortions, even when the baby is fully functioning and everything is developed. I think Satan is pretty excited about our new president and alot of the advisors that he has working with him. If you have ever read the book series, "The Great and Terrible", it reminds me of what is happening in our nation right now. There are many evil acts going on behind the scenes...alot of secrets combinations, deceivings, lyings, murderings, and adultery, and the list goes on and on.

Eventually, we are going to have to stand up as citizens of the United States, and decide which side of the fence we want to be on. No sitting on the fence anymore. If it produces good, it comes from God. If it is not good, it comes from the devil. There is no in between.

Heavenly Father will not continue to bless and protect this nation, if we turn our backs on Him. But, that is exactly what our country is doing...taking his name out of the pledge of allegience, not allowing prayers in schools, and all sorts of other crap that the government is doing. I feel like we are in trouble and I know things will just get worse and worse, until our real president, our real leader, our real Master, our only Saviour, even Jesus Christ, will come back to this Earth to save His people, those that still believe in Him and have trusted in Him.
