Bravo Zulu! What a testimony to our great God that He would take that lady and absolutely crush the arguments for abortion. It reminds me so much of the story of Joseph. What they meant for Evil, God turned to Good.
She is also absolutely correct in that we all should understand that we should EXPECT to be hated. If you're not, you might want to examine yourself and ask how much Salt and Light you have. I don't personally think we ought to go looking to create controversy or that we ought to actively being trying to "stir it up". However, I do think that one can't help but create controvery and "stir it up" if they are living their lives everyday for Jesus. I mean it is a natural consequence. All we have to do is simply let our Light shine and not hide it.
For example, I can personally tell you that I have personnally witnessed one particular poultry group come completely unglued simply because I happened to mention that humans and animals are not equal because God created humans in His image and animals were not. That one simple statement caused an absolute explosion. The sad part is that many Christians watched in the background and remained silent while the Evil-Doers ranted and raved about there being no room for such talk in a poultry forum. In other words, secular humanism and all it's beliefs were fully welcomed and encouraged but there was ABSOLUTELY NO room for a Biblical Worldview in such a place.
That, my fellow Brothers and Sisters, is exactly why we have the country we do today. So I encourage all my Brothers and Sisters to speak the truth in love, be not ashamed of the Gospel for it is the power unto salvation, STAND FIRM, be STRONG and of good COURAGE, and fight the good fight!
For on that day we stand before our Lord, the ONLY thing we have to give an account for is when Jesus says, "What did you do for me?"
Much as I love my animals, and they are family, I know what would happen if I had to choose between, say, my DH and my favorite chicken. DH wins hands down. So would the stranger down the street. We were made stewards and caretakers and we were given dominion over the animals. They are NOT our equals, but they can still be included in heaven. Back to Paradise, or should I say forward to Paradise? Excuse me, but I am on this heaven kick lately. I don't think we understand it, or look forward to it as we should.
Cindiloohoo, I watched that video. Wow! Thanks for posting it. I reposted it on FB. It's another example of what man means for evil, God means for good. Thank you Heavenly Father for being in control!
Amen! Tailfeathers!!! I see the same thing on these forums every day and I agree....I don't wish to argue about the inconsequential but I also am not willing to back down from the truth.

My grandpa got to come home from the hospital for now. He will have to have his bladder out. He will be going down to University of Michigan Hospital in Ann Arbor for that surgery -- just don't know when yet. So thanks for all the prayers!
