Politics

The other day I was praying about an Issue that I have been waiting almost 9 years for it to be resolved and 10min later I get on facebook and there is scripture that talks about waiting on the Lord! I know that through my waiting it will make me stronger but sometimes it's just plain hard to wait for answered prayer. The lord and I have these arguements back and forth and he always reminds me of Jeremiah 29:11.."For I know the plans I have for you..". Thank you Lord for that reminder. In the mean time I will wait and hope in him!! On another note I posted something last night on facebook that has caused quite an uproar with my non christian relative (that i don't really know..it's a relative on my inlaws side..distant cousin). I was watching the Presidential debate and said that I don't like watching people lie..It's full of empty promises..Just my opinion. Well she went off saying that I'm "uneducated" along with all my friends (they started posting as well and standing up for me and for themselves). and basically said that she doesn't want to have anything to do with those that don't support Obama! WOW!! We live in the land of the free and I thought we had freedom of speech?? and I stated that Jesus himself was friends with sinners..He came and died for all of us..doesn't mean he "agreed" with everyone..he still loved them but didn't mean he had to agree with them to love them..At any rate I ended up saying I will pray for her and that's all I can do at this point..People have such blinders on they can't see the truth! I was pretty fired up and restless after this conversation and I had to get up early for work so I didn't think i was going to sleep but the Lord gave me so much peach last night when I prayed to him and I instantly fell asleep. Then this morning my daughter Lily walks in and she has a rainbow on her shirt (which she picked out her clothing the night before). The Lord knew I needed to see a rainbow as his promise to us to never leave us nor forsake us! He also woke me up at 4:33 exactly and this am one of my coworkers talked about going to sweet water, TN and he googled it on mapquest and it came out to 433 miles..Intresting..not to mention "33" is the age of Jesus when he died..Please read my previous blogs about 3:33 and what has been revealed by that. I did read today in My Jesus today book this verse that helped with what i went through last night.."Do not be afraid of (your enemies); The Lord your God himself will fight for you." Deuteronomy 3:22! Amen!!! Thank you Lord Jesus for always being there for me and please help everyone to be a living example of who you are and that others can be won over by our actions because you dwell in us. I pray for my relative Ann that she comes to know you in a deep/personal way and for all those that don't know you!! for you are the Way, the Truth, and the Life!!! and all those that believe in you will have eternal life! I pray for this upcoming election that it will not serve as a divider in any way and that you will keep our words pure and kind but also correct where correction is needed. I pray that your will, will be done in all things! and that this nation will once again turn to moral /biblical values and turn back to YOU!!!! Thank you Lord for your GRACE, and Mercy and Love that you so richly give! I love you will all my heart! In Jesus Name I pray AMEN!!
