Tyranny

When the people fear

their government, there

is tyranny; when the

government fears the

people, there is liberty.

                -Thomas Jefferson

Tom woke me up at 3:30 am this morning, to tell me that the House passed the Health Care bill.  We talked for a long time, then prayed.  We thanked our Heavenly Father for this great country, asked forgivness for not having done more sooner, prayed for our country, our Constitution, "the people", for peace inspite of turmoil, for faith not fear, for guidance and direction, to be instruments in the Lords hands, for safety and protection from harm and danger and the evils around us, for the fortification of this family, strength courage and much more. The time for being idle is past.  Do you realize in the past year and a half our government has taken over the main industries in housing, auto, insurance, banking, and working on taking over health care?

Do you ever wonder if this is just an extension of the war in heaven, here on earth? And if our action here will impact our eternities?  I do.
