Don't Rock the Boat, Give Him Your Vote

I'd like to take a moment to deviate from my normal topics. This blog is usually about my little boy, but right now there's something more important to talk about. Tomorrow is election day, your chance to vote. Your opportunity to make your voice heard and to pick a candidate that will stand for the things you believe in. The man we put into office will run this country for the next 4, and maybe even 8, years. He will propose and veto bills. He will defend and oppose certain organizations. Every decision he makes while in office will affect our nation positively or negatively.

So who do you want to see moving into the White House? Do you want a president that will defend the proper and Biblical definition of marriage? Or perhaps you want a president that will work to increase government control of health care. There are so many issues at stake, and it would take so much time to discuss them. I urge you to look at the facts.

If you are planning to vote for Barack Obama, please look again at his promises and proposals. Look past his eloquence to see what he's really saying. For example, he thinks America should have a Civilian National Security Force. Folks, do you know what that is? This force can sit in the pews of our churches and let the government know when our pastors preach against homosexuality so that they can be arrested for such talk. Kinda sounds like the communist countries, don't you think?

John McCain may not be the perfect candidate, but he's got more of a moral spine than Obama. He's the better candidate, and his running mate is a strong woman who will stand up for her beliefs without apology. Together they will fight against abortion bills and the ban on offshore drilling.

There's a spiritual battle going on, and I don't think we realize how crafty Satan really is. He doesn't barge in and take over all at once. It's a slow, sneaky process to keep Christians from recognizing his influence. This election is extremely important, and the result will determine how much more damage he can inflict upon America. Our nation is blessed and protected by God, but if we keep ignoring His commandments and making allowances for sin, then we will be punished.

Lord, help us make the right decision. Put the man in office that you can use for your glory. Let us be bold in our beliefs and stand on your Word. Let us not turn our back on You.
