Saturday Hen House

    Our home is peaceful on Saturday morning, especially if we do not have to go anywhere. The chicks are allowed to watch tv and my husband, The Rooster, cooks a yummy breakfast. I usually hide out in the kitchen with him enjoying coffee and visiting.
     We have had a busy fall because chick #2 played flagged football. It was an interesting experience. Every Saturday there was a game to go to and practice were held twice during the week. His last practice was in the cold, but he had taken plenty of clothing to keep him warm.
     I hope everyone enjoys there Saturdays. This is one that we have been looking forward to, being able to stay home together as a family.

Election 2012

    I know that I have not written a entry for sometime. Life becomes  very busy for a mother for five chicks. There are certain times that I must crawl out from under my rock and stand on a soap box. The time is now for people, especial woman, to wake up and stop drinking the kool-aid. We must educate ourselves and stand firm in the truth. Our right, given to us by God the Father, is being taken away. For 39 years life has been taken away from God's creation. There have been at least 54,000,000 murders commented, lawfully, in these United States of America. Count those zeros again, six zeros, that means millions! Tiny wee babes within their mother's wombs are being denied life. Abortion has been an abomination in this world.
    In the book of Genises, God created life. He breathed in the dust and Adam was given life. Then from Adam, came his helpmate, Eve. She was part of man and, with him, brought new life to the earth. God's command to them is "And God blessed them. And God said to them, Be Fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth." Genesis 1:28.
    There are many sources that a christian can use to help them decide which candidate should earn their vote. I have listed three such resources below. The first is a talk radio that broadcasts in central Nebraska. I know both of the pastors that are contributing on the broadcast. The second listed resource is put out by the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod and the third site looks at life and women's issues.

    It is very important that we exercise our right to vote in our country. Please, go and vote on November 6th.  The founding fathers wanted the people to rule themselves. That can only happen if we educate ourselves and know the issues. We must use the truth of the word of God to govern our decisions. His truth will always stand true and right. His word will not waver or flip flop.
    The truth of our forgiveness of sins will always be where are hope lies. God loves his creation and he bestowed his grace upon us. We did not deserve it. We are all corrupted by sin. But God showed mercy upon us and sent His begotten son, Jesus Christ, to pay for our sin. Jesus's blood, shed upon the cross, is the payment for our sin. Our hope must lie in that forgivness and not in the things of this world.
