Holy Election Day!!

Wow!  Did we Conservatives ever take a whoopin' yesterday....that was most 'Not-fun'.

So let's look at some of the election results;

WI elected its first female Senator...and she is openly gay!
CO and WA voters voted to make pot smoking legal! 
Maryland, Maine and WA voted to legalize gay marriage!
MN voted NO on it's attempt to put Man+Woman=marriage in its constitution.
Obama elected for 4 more years...and he really doesn't like Israel.

I hate to say it...but this bad news is going to keep coming at us like a flood.

Before we comment anymore on the news that concerns us, here are some good Bible verses sent by a reader that should serve to quiet our souls.

God is our refuge and strength, an ever present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea.
Psalms 46:1-2

Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
1 Peter 5-7
 
Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but endures forever.
Psalms 125 1
 
The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him.
Nahum 1:7

Of course our first instinct is to look at the news and wish there was someplace we could go to escape all the liberal-atheists who are literally provoking the Creator...but scripture is clear that we are supposed to OCCUPY until Christ returns.  I guess we will all need to meditate on what that means for us.

My home state of MN seems to really be heading towards the liberal abyss.  I wonder if we should look at selling out and sliding West into SD or ND where God, guns, and personal responsibility still are king...and the killing of unborn babies is severely restricted?  I tell you what, if we could get them to paste, "We love, honor and bless Israel" into their state constitution...a guy would have to think long and hard about that.....

Well, we certainly knew a Romney victory wasn't going to save us...but we had hoped to see a little bit of hope for those of us who want to continue to see evil restrained.

Let's turn now to 2 Timothy 3 and take comfort that God knows EXACTLY what is going on.  Let's remember what we have always known....MAN WILL NEVER SAVE US....BUT CHRIST ALREADY HAS!

3 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. ² People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, ³ without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, ⁴ treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— ⁵ having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.

¹² In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, ¹³ while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.

¹⁶ All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, ¹⁷ so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Let's be excited folks!!  Jesus is coming!!  Stay focused on scripture and continue doing the work which the Lord prepared for us to do!  The finish line is in sight, so let's not all run with our arms flailing and looking like we haven't a clue where we are going!  Let's cross the finish line excited to meet the Lord who is waiting there to greet us!
