"The nations shall know that I am the Lord,” says the Lord God, “when I am hallowed in you before their eyes." ~ Ezekiel 36:23

Jesus Christ!

It seems to me, when most people use the exclamation "Oh my God!", that God is the last thing on their mind at that moment.  In like manner, when most people exclaim "Jesus Christ!" or "Jesus!" or "Christ!", I think we can safely assume they are not calling upon the Lord.

Ironically, in an age when so much of the media, the liberals and the "atheists" are so dramactically opposed to the mention of God, and especially Jesus, God's name seems to be proclaimed with greater emphasis by these very people!  I think we can easily surmise that it is not the true believers in Jesus that use His name so ineloquently as a curse or as a proclamation of dismay or despair.

a stand must be devised and taken

As a conservative, I know that we MUST guide the leadership of our party of choice by making them aware of our opinions on the myriad issues that are before us in the public arena.  I am increasingly distressed with the blurring of lines between liberalism and conservatism in the two major parties.  Seeking consensus does not necessitate capitulating values and morality for the sake of compromise; a stand must be devised and taken.

Make you voices heard, make your values known, make their phones ring and their postal boxes overflow.

Clueless Republicans

watch, look, listen

engage in the war

All hoopla aside, I don't think it really matters whether President Obama could, would or should accept or reject the Nobel prize, and it is really not a slur or a kudos on him that he "won" it.  Did he do anything to deserve it?  Not in my opinion, but in the opinion of the Nobel judges he did.  In the overall scope of things, it just doesn't matter to me who gets this prize; someone I like or someone I don't.  It has never mattered to me before and it doesn't matter now. 

Does anything about President Obama matter to me?  Abosolutely.

The President of my country stands against everything I hold dear:  God, family, freedom, morality and justice.  But, at least for the next couple of years, he is my President.   I don't have to like it; I do have to accept it.  Planned initiatives: work that much harder for his opponent in the next election, attend town halls, make lots of phone calls and write many letters making my opinion heard by those who have been elected to represent me.  I suggest you do the same.

By the way, for those among us calling for the Presidents resignation, you want Joe Biden as President?  C'mon, are you kidding me?

For the believers among us, engage in the spiritual war that rages around us.  Engage.
