It will not change me!

I will not follow my government's example and try to get more money in my family's bank account by going out and going on a spending spree with Visa. When has that ever worked? I will not avoid my bad decisions by sweeping them under a rug and forgetting they ever happened, and I will not put all my hope in someone on this earth to make everything okay.

I will not allow this bunch of half brained, corrupt, short visioned, dummies to affect how I spend my life. I cannot believe what is happening in this country this year, but I will plunge forward, confident in the fact that I am guided, not by a political agenda, not by the pursuit of money, but by a Savior. I am loved, protected, and comforted. I will do what I can to love others like I want to be loved, and I will use my energy in a constructive manner glorifying God. That is all I can do, and all I can control. I will teach my children to TAKE RESPONSIBILITY for their own actions, and to learn from their consequences and to cling to God at all times good and bad.

Jesus loves you, there's nothing you can do about it.
That's my new mantra.
