Don't Whine; Get a Spine!

 


“All Americans need to ‘step up’

And get to the bottom of election malpractices.”

Gen. Flynn

 

I like the question we discussed in our prayer meeting.  How should a Christian respond to the chaos in our American election?  An astute intercessor explained it by using her own story.

“Have you ever been scammed?”  She then went on to describe her roller coaster emotions when she got taken big time in a rental property situation.  “I paid a first rental payment plus a deposit and then I learned my new place is not vacant.  Another renter lives there with a lease that extends well passed my move-in date.”  She met the true landlord and learned he was different from her original contact.  She’d been scammed by an operation that ran smooth as ice.

How did this Christian woman react?  Anger toppled her emotions and rightfully so!  The scammer stole her hard-earned money as well as her new dwelling.  After contacting the police and choosing to prosecute with a jail sentence, she signed up with a local news channel to expose the scam. 

Again, she asked us:  “How should a Christian respond to the chaos in our American election?”

Consider these facts:

*70,000,000 Americans remain outraged by the befouled election.

*Fake mainstream media propaganda spews lies to its subscribers and calls for an election devoid of proper constitutional laws. 

*Ballot corruption at the polls reveal evidence of dead people voting, illegal votes, and other mischief.  

*Censorship of true facts dominates social media. 

*Whistleblowers and hundreds of witnesses’ submit documentation on their phones of voter fraud.

We the people, patriots of the U.S. Constitution of our democratic republic, will not accept this.  We abhor liberal socialism and communism, abortion and new world order government.  We choose God, freedom and our country.  When our country, founded on a system where we the people get to express our voice, find that our voice has been stolen through cheating, our emotions rage!  

We are angry.  Our votes have been snatched by a corrupt system that wants to take down our president.  This no longer is about two political parties.  It is spiritual warfare. 

A few days ago, a liberal woman, low on factual knowledge, tried to convince me that many Republicans did not vote for Nationalist President Trump this time but turned to the Socialist Democrat Party and voted for Vice-Pres. Biden, she being one of them.  I surmise that by emphasis on her vote, she would educate me.  Yet her facts were wrong.  With a lick of common sense, one can compare the average republican rally, five per week of more than 10,000 people in attendance, to the democrat lean rallies of less than 50 people when they did occasionally meet.  Liberal media refused to show the president’s rallies in full crowd stature so why wouldn’t this gullible gal take the bait and think both crowds equal?   No research.  No truth.  



On election night, we cheered as our president carried a red wave of voters until his haters in the media panicked and called off the whole election!  By morning, ballots for the other guy began to appear out of nowhere!  Without following the rules of protocol, liberals crowned their guy as president.  No law or order.  Hmm, who authorized the media to dismiss our constitution?  

Maybe I should purchase a lottery ticket and use a felt marker to change the numbers.  After all, it worked for Joe Biden!

How Should Christians Respond?

Some Christians are awake, but not all.  Some don’t want to pray feeling God is on His throne and in control.  They whine and misquote Scripture.  “Let’s just love everybody,” the mantra of cheap grace. I believe that God is on His throne and speaking to His children that have ears to hear.  His call is not for weakness but strength; His strength to stand.  It’s okay to be angry.  We’ve been scammed.  

It’s going to get ugly.  When the lawsuits reveal the scam and take back the votes for the president, the cheaters will hate, cry and lie.  It might be a good idea to have a few cans of food and toilet paper on hand in case we have to hunker down again. 

I’ll close with a Bible story.  Gideon started off with an army of 22,000 men.  The Lord told him the number was too high; reduce it to 10,000.   With still too many, the Lord devised a scheme to reduce the army.  Why?  He promised His army victory but wasn’t about to let them think it would come because of their ability.  No, the Lord positioned Himself to get the victory.  He separated the men who lapped like a dog at the river for a drink from the ones who knelt for a drink.  The Lord said to Gideon, “With the 300 who lapped from their hands, I will save you and give you victory over the Midianites. The other men were sent home.  We learn from this story in Judges 7 that God didn’t need much.  A small remnant and a mighty God saved Israel that day.

God only needs a remnant, Christians.  He needs a few who are awake, who fear the Lord and who will engage in this war.  The question to ponder is “Will I team up with God?  Pray and hear what God wants me to do?  Or will I be the one who thinks God is on the throne; what will be, will be.  One thing I know, God will get the victory in all this election chaos.  The glory will go to God and Him alone! 

Father God, choose me.  Please don’t send me home.

A Veteran's Story

  I noticed Bill sitting in our local park where I walk.   He glanced my way just as I finished the last exercise walk song on my playlist.   He shouted and pointed to my car:   “Hey, is that your car with the Nam front license plate?   I stepped closer into the veranda where Bill sat on a picnic bench.   I noticed his Vietnam Vet cap and instantly I knew why I walked there that day.   The Marine Vet served during the 1960’s, the same time span as my husband.   Bill talked a lot about the war evoking my emotions from laughter to tears.   My South Vietnam front plate often prompts a conversation with a stranger and I’ve learned a deep respect for it over the years.   It is my way of listening to a veteran.   I enjoyed listening to Bill.   He made me laugh in spots but he made me cry as well.   Like when he talked about the sandwich lady.   “Do you ever eat at the sandwich shop in the gas station down the street...

Lunch With the Girls on Gurley Street

While vacuuming a few days ago, I had a conversation with myself wondering if I should delete my blog. It was just a stray thought that came into my head while I was on a self pity trip. When life gets hard, I don’t always feel like rejoicing and with a blog dedicated to smiling in life, well it is just too much pressure! Then something wonderful happened. I am smiling again and can’t wait to write about it! Two precious sisters-in-Christ, amazing Arizona bloggers from the valley, drove up north and offered mega doses of encouragement. Today I would like to feature the wonderful afternoon I spent in Prescott with Debbie from Heart Choices and Kathleen from Sassy Granny. Debbie and I met last year at a blogger luncheon, so I knew this charming lady would have us laughing with her friendly ease. She is beautiful inside and out and oh, what a heart of love this gal has! It was such a blessing to meet Kathleen in person after following her blog this past year. I was su...

A Memorial Day Reflection

  Memorial Day is always noteworthy for me and my girls.  Next Thursday marks the third year of missing their father, my husband. So many thoughts  run through my mind.  The journey of loss takes on various emotions.  The strongest feeling, at first, was emptiness.  In a split second, I would forget he departed forever.  I imagined things I needed to talk to him about when he got back home.  My mind is realistic now.  He's not coming back.  There will be no more times of sitting on the porch swing together on the front deck staring at the moon and the stars.  He would tell me all he knew about the majestic night sky. I have so much I wish I could tell him, like the excitement of seeing our oldest grandchild make a decision to follow Jesus and get baptized on Mother's Day!  And our little Amy, 11 years old, I wish he could have seen her on stage receiving her induction to the National Honor Society. Our daughters have their own ...
