Also, what did Paul say in 1 Corinthians 14:1..."Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy." You my friend are a prophet, like it or not.

I'm scared for the future of this country. Though i am not old enough to vote (just a year short!) i didn't want Obama in office. Now that he is president i'm praying like crazy for him, and all of our government. Already though, i'm scared for this country. The fact that within the first couple of days in office he stripped ban on government funds going to abortion clinics like Planned Parenthood, has me scared. According to the Family Research Council a large part ($87 billion ) of the stimulus package is going to Medicaid "to be used help people, especially young teens, get their hands on more birth control." And that scares me. It seems that our new government is, by way of giving money to such programs, making it more okay for teens to have sex and have need for birth control. It seems that our government is no longer interested in preserving the idea of the family. The fact that He is going to give my money, and my family's money to those types of organizations hurts me deeply and infuriates me. I know God has this all in control but i'm really nervous our country's future. I wouldn't be surprised at all if your predictions came true. Just had to share my thoughts! ~Leah I agree with you on almost every point. I’m scared for the future of this country.

And congratulations of getting on Dave Ramsey's plan to get out of debt! Tim and I paid off our $21,521.66 of debt in 15 months. Don't let frustrations of starting off get you off track, press on and God will bless your family. If you need some encouragement or tips give Tim a call and we'll be more than happy to put in a word or two. Are y'all doing FPU or reading Total Money Makeover? Good rant Greg.

I'm not trying to scare anyone. I just believe that this is what lies ahead for the country. I could be totally wrong. But it's that end times urgency that has always and should always keep our eyes to the sky and urgently sharing our faith. True in the 1st Century...true today. Hey Kenn, good points all.
