First Entry

Well, this is my first entry. I am not sure exactly what I am doing but I will do it anyway. I have a passion for God, my family and my country. I am very saddened to see society diminish all three. God has become offensive, the family is considered a burden, and many in our country are putting their hope in a man who is going around the world trying to get everyone to like him.
I don't know how God can be offensive. It is He who gave us our families and the freedom we enjoy in this country. He loved us enough to send his son to Earth and then make him the ultimate sacrifice.
Family is a wonderful gift from God. It saddens me when I hear adults speak of their children as burdens, or their spouse as "one more person to take care of". There is a problem when children get along better with outsiders rather than thier own siblings. Parents no longer foster the relationship between siblings. They think they need outside socialization, when God gave them all the socialization they need right in the home. God gave us family for a reason, He knew we needed someone genetically connected to us.
Real freedom is knowing God and who He is. Liberty doesn't really come until one accepts that He sent his Son, Jesus Christ, to die on a cross for each and every one of us. Those who rely on the president of the United States to give liberty are disillusioned. People need to read and learn our founding documents. Liberty is endowed by our Creator, it is not given by any man. One must remember that if man is the one who gives freedom then it is man who can take it away. When one knows liberty is from God, no one can revoke it.

Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. IICor. 3:17

Maybe this first post should have been called liberty?
