Hate is not good

This video is really good. The speaker talks about how the "left", the "liberals", the "progressives" really don't like Christians. He says that what they teach and believe is "a revolution against God, it's war on Christ. It's war on the unborn. It's war on the innocents. It's war on the family."

He says that these people really don't like Christian morality.

I have been reading a blog called Dammit Janet. Somebody called Fern Hill writes for this blog. She also has a twitter account. It seems to me that this Fern Hill is awfully hateful and mean to Christians and to pro-life people. And other people too, like politicians etc. And I wonder why that is so?

Then while I was watching this video, I thought this guy really seems to understand the "progressives" mentality. I'm pretty sure not all progressives are like this Fern Hill person. And that she is just an extreme example. But from what I've read on her blog, I think the speaker in the video is probably talking about people just like this Fern Hill. The video seems to explain very well the hate some of these extreme progressives have for Christianity and pro-life people.

I find it all rather strange that a loving religion like Christianity can be so hated by some people. These Christian haters must be very very unhappy. That's all that I can think of as a reason.

What my faith does for me

I feel so blessed to be a person of faith. It gives me so much comfort in times of hardship. In good times it allows me to be thankful for everything and everyone in my life. I pray to God and I trust that his promises will be fulfilled in my life. Seek and you shall find, knock and the door shall be opened. I believe these promises to be true.

I sometimes feel so sad for those people who have no faith. How do they get through the tough times? Who do they thank for their blessings? I often wonder when I hear someone say, you don't have to believe in God to be a good person. That may be so. But can you be full of joy like I am when you don't believe in God?

There was a time when I abandoned my faith. I didn't feel joyous at all. That all changed when I reconnected with my God and again felt his love after so many years of absence.

I am greatly blessed.

All we need is trust in the Lord

I love this prayer. I repeat it whenever I need to renew my faith in God. Which is often. It especially helps when I struggle after reading about the horrors of abortion in this world. 

I also pray it for the women who are suffering with an unexpected pregnancy. That they will see God's love in the child they are carrying and change their minds about abortion. And if they are unable to keep the child, that they put her up for adoption to a family that can and wants to adopt the child.

I know God will overcome the evil of abortion. In his own good time. 

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,And lean not on your own understanding;In all your ways acknowledge Him,And He shall direct your paths.Proverbs 3:5-6
