On Thursday evening my husband and I made the decision to drive to Washington D.C. to be part of the "Kill the Bill" protest on the Capitol lawn. We had been a part of the 9-12 DC Tea Party, having been part of the Tea Party movement since it's beginning, and have a vested interest in making sure this monstrosity doesn't pass (it is pending as I type this).We drove to DC Friday evening and drove back Saturday, not able to stay for the entire event because of church responsibilities Sunday morning, but we were thrilled to be a part...

I'm not sure if this is actually FROM the ACLU, but it is a wonderful video about the future of Obamacare, and well worth watching. (If it truly is from the ACLU, it's ONE thing on which we can agree with them).Funny..........but not really......if you know what I mean. LINK

My husband and I took part in one of the most exciting events in Washington DC in our lifetimes. The crowds were huge, spirits were high, people were polite, smiling and pumped up, and overall, the experience was AMAZING!We are a force to be reckoned with - and this is only the beginning!Here are my personal photos from the March and Rally......

The Lord is righteous in all His ways and loving toward all HE has made.The LORD is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth.He fulfills the desires of those who fear Him; He hears their cry and saves them. Psalm 145: 17 – 19

........ In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame;Deliver me in Your righteousness.Turn Your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; Be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me. Psalm 31: 1 – 2

Come and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what He has done for me.I cried out to Him with my mouth; His praise was on my tongue.If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened; But God has surely listened and heard my voice in prayer.Praise be to God who has not rejected my prayer or withheld His love from me! Psalm 66: 16 – 20

Praise the LORD.Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His love endures forever.Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the LORD or fully declare His praise?Blessed are they who maintain justice, who constantly do what is right. Psalm 106: 1 – 3

No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl.Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. Luke 11: 33 – 34a

Your love, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, Your faithfulness to the skies.Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, Your justice like the great deep.O LORD, You preserve both man and beast. How priceless is Your unfailing love!Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of Your wings. Psalm 36: 5 – 7

Rejoice in the LORD and be glad, you righteous;Sing, all you who are upright in heart!Sing joyfully to the LORD, you righteous;It is fitting for the upright to praise Him. Psalm 32 – 11 – Psalm 33: 1

Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy.He who goes out weeping carrying seed to sow,Will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with him. Psalm 126: 5-6

The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His being,Sustaining all things by His powerful word.After He had provided purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in Heaven.So He became as much superior to the angels as the Name he has inherited is superior to theirs. Hebrews 1: 3 – 4

Ascribe to the LORD, O mighty ones, Ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name: Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness. Psalm 29: 1-2

Do not repay anyone evil for evil.Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody.If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live in peace with everyone.Do not take revenge my friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: ”It is mine to avenge. I will repay, says the Lord.On the contrary: If your enemy is hungry, feed him;If he is thirsty, give him something to drink.In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Romans 12: 17...

As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless.He is a shield for all who take refuge in Him.For who is God besides the LORD?And who is the Rock except our God?It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect.He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; He enables me to stand on the heights. II Samuel 22: 31-34

”We are going up to Jerusalem, “ He said, ”And the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and teachers of the law.They will condemn Him to death and will hand Him over to the Gentiles,Who will mock Him and spit on Him, flog Him and Kill him.Three days later, He will rise.” - The Words of Jesus -Mark 10: 33- 34

O God, You are my God, earnestly I seek you;My soul thirsts for You, my body longs for You,In a dry and weary land where there is no water.I have seen You in the sanctuary and beheld Your power and Your glory.Because Your love is better than life, my lips will glorify You.I will praise You as long as I live, and in Your Name I will lift up my hands. Psalm 63: 1 ? 4

Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:Who being in very nature God did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,But made Himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.And being found in appearances as a man, He humbled HimselfAnd became obedient to death ? even death on a cross!Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place And gave Him the Name that is above every name,That at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, In heaven and on earth and under the earth,And every tongue confess...

Look on me and answer, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death;My enemy will say, “I have overcome him.” And my foes will rejoice when I fall.But I trust in Your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in Your salvation.I will sing to the LORD, for He has been good to me. Psalm 12: 3 – 6
