WHAT CHOICE WILL WE MAKE?
My last two or three posts may sound quite harsh, But, oh they come from a heart that cries for our nation, for the youth of our nation, and for the generations to come. I am not speaking personally. I am seeing beyond this to national consequences. If we want to turn the tide, we have to be prepared for courage and sacrifice.
Some dear mothers say they don't have a choice but to send their children into an ungodly system. But, currently, we do have a choice (we may not have this choice forever!). We have to look at it either of two ways. What is best for my lifestyle? Or, what can I do to help save my children and my nation? In other words, am I going to do what is easiest for me? Or, am I truly aware of the current status of our nation?
Do I realize that there will never come any change in this nation while we send our children to be educated in progressive socialism that rejects God, prayer, and the Bible. A change of government will not change this nation. A new president will not change this nation. Nothing can change until the education changes. The nation becomes how it is educated.
Every God-fearing parent has to face this fact. Do we have a nation of courageous God-fearing parents who are prepared to turn their lives around? For that's what it will take. Parents who are ready for sacrifice and courage. Parents who are ready to forgo their pursuits to save a nation. Parents who are ready to take their nose out the sand and find out what is really happening. Do we have what it takes?
We had pioneers who were prepared for this. We had brave men who fought for our freedoms. What are we prepared to do to keep our freedom?
Perhaps we should not even be where we are today? Why did not every God-fearing parent take their children out of school when prayer was taken out of schools? Did they not care?
Why didn't every Christian parent take their children out of public school when the Bible was taken out of schools? Did it not concern them?
But, now there is nothing left of God in our state education. Does that affect us at all? Or, will we have the courage to rise up and take action?
If every freedom-loving, God-loving, Bible loving, prayer-loving parent took their children out of state education to either homeschool, church school, or private school, the whole system would be turned upside down. That would be the greatest thing that could ever happen to turn this nation around. And perhaps the only thing. Can we do it?
