America is Changing

The re-election of President Obama and the Democratic platform of values signals a big shift in the cultural thinking of most Americans.

America is changing right in front of our eyes – and not for the better.

In a “progressive” movement away from the values of God towards the values of the world, the nation is shifting quickly. Liberalism has always been a part of our society but the agenda of the current Administration in DC is more telling than ever. For goodness sake, the word “God” was removed from their political platform before being put back in after three votes (and listening to the recordings make it clear more were opposed than in favor of).

The Bible tells us in the end times that the world would embrace earthly morals and turn further and further away from God. We are watching it take place like a virtual reality show. Each election more conservatives lose. Each election more votes go for the party that supports more abortions, more handouts, less God, and the homosexual agenda.

God help us.

It can be unsettling and very frustrating to observe our amazing country fold into itself. America has always been the light to the world in many ways. But not much anymore.

But as time marches on we must hold tight to the following truths:

1. God is in control. In the end, He will reign and every knee will bow before Him
2. He told us these times were coming and He will be with us
3. He will come for us before it gets real bad
4. We can and should focus on making a difference in our own communities
5. We need to continue to stand for the values of God even if we keep losing

I know for me, I will still love and thank God for America. I will still vote, get choked up when I hear a good national anthem and celebrate our fun patriotic holidays. We are still a nation with millions that worship Him and millions that beleive in His values. We are just not the majority anymore.

Now is the time to enjoy the family, your church, and life as you know it. Times might get even tougher. But our joy is new every morning and He is our source of happiness. Heaven is our future.

And, as the country gets darker and people struggle more and more, they are going to want to know one simple thing - how is that you can smile?
