America

I know three posts in one day but I have thoughts...I am so sad for my children right now.  I have just finished watching the results of the Presidential Campaign.  I can't figure out why people support Barrack Obama.  Let me tell you what I think...I think that this is basically the end for the way things have been in this great country.  I look at this election as a spiritual crumbling.  Four out of four states legalized same sex marriages.  Our society is going down hill morally.  In four more years gay marriage will be legal all over the country and I won't even get a say.  Marijuana will be legalized nationwide again without me even having the opportunity to vote on it.  This means that I have three little children who are going to be exposed to things that I can't bear for them to face at a very tender age.  Same sex marriage will be taught in history classes in the schools.  Marijuana will be like candy.  The next issue for me is that I have a husband who works his butt off.  He spent many years in school to get  a good education so he could support us.  We are already paying so much in taxes because we need to support those who have learned how to use the system.  I can't stand it.  It is so sad to me.  Since Obama threw Obamacare out there for us I have a friend who has to pay 10,000 dollars more a year than she did before.  She is just one of many who are being shredded by the side effects of Obamacare.  Our country is so divided that we vote entirely on party loyalties and not on people and policies.  I hope I am wrong.  I hope our political leaders will work together but I am afraid our government is too corrupt.  Obama just ran one of the most negative campaigns in history against one of the cleanest men to ever run  for office and we don't seem to care.  This is shameful.  I wonder what the next 5 - 10 years will be like for my family. I love the USA but I don't have any faith in the people who govern.   I am grateful that I have the gospel of Jesus Christ to give me hope and something to have faith in.  I am scared.

I understand your feelings. We know that things will get worse before they get better. But we can take great strength from the fact that God is in control and we have a prophet to guide us through anything. Our children can be protected if we keep our homes safe and sacred. I may end up home schooling.
