Let the church rise up!

I don’t usually forward emails unless they are especially good or pertinent (as in this case). God forgive us for our lack of respect for human life and for the incomprehensible things we do! We live in a time when life itself is taken for granted and so casually tossed aside. Some very good friends of ours just lost their son this past week. He was born with spina bifida. For those of you who aren’t familiar with this condition, it is actually a hole in the spine that doesn’t allow the spinal chord to fuse properly and allows essential spinal fluid to leak. Bottom line, every day functions that we take for granted are hindered and most times non-existent. Our friend’s son, Daniel, was only expected to live a couple of days at the most. He would have been 16 years old in November of this year, had he lived. How amazing is that?! And how horrifying to think that the life of this precious young man, who touched so many lives, could have been so easily terminated had his parents not known how awesome our God is and how He extends grace and mercy to us when we need it most!
I’m also not one for sticking my neck out there and stating my political choices. That is between God and myself….however, I have to say this video blew me away. And even if there are a few facts that are embellished or over-stated, I’m not naïve enough to think that it isn’t happening somewhere out there. And God help us if we put someone in the white house that holds to the view or opinion that life is not sacred.
Please watch to video that is attached below and let Holy Spirit guide you to make prudent choices in this upcoming election. I pray that we are all brought to our knees.

“My people perish for lack of knowledge…”
- Hosea 4:6

“A time will come when people will not listen to accurate teachings. Instead, they will follow their own evil desires and surround themselves with teachers who tell them what they want to hear.”
- 2 Timothy 4:3

“This is why people are condemned: The Light came into the world. Yet, people loved the dark rather than the Light because their deeds are evil.”
- John 3:19
