Our House, is very very very Fine house!

Well people one of the moments we have all been waiting for...Shelby and I have a house. It's pretty much almost official. Escrow will close on Dec. 2nd. We couldn't be happier, well maybe a little, but not much:)
We have just been so faithful that God will open the doors for us and He certainly has! It was a short sale so there was a quik escrow and now in less than 2 weeks we will hopefully be moving in. I don't even think it has soaked in all the way and it probably wont until I am moving stuff in and making dinner in my kitchen...WOOHOO!!!!!!
So keep on praying for us and that God will continue to pour out His wonderful blessings upon us! Amen!

Prop 8

Let me start off by saying this is not a political blog. This blog is meant for me to share my beliefs and opinions. I happen to have a very strong opinion on prop 8 and I am so sick of people calling it a civil rights issue. This IS NOT a civil rights issue!
My belief is that marriage is between a man and a woman. Yes, I believe this because of my faith in Jesus Christ.
What gets me is that four years ago, California, as a state, voted against gay marriage. It wasn't just a couple people, it was the whole state. We didn't vote to have it overturned, but because some people were offended and upset that we were discriminating against them it got overturned. Well yesterday, California again as a state voted to oppose gay marriage and now people are suing saying it's not fair.
Wake up and tell me where it's fair that I vote and people don't respect that. Can I sue the people suing the state because I don't agree with them? Because I think their vote doesn't have any standing? What rights do I have as a voter if they do not respect my vote, and the vote of all the others who voted to uphold the value of marriage?
There will be people who do not agree with me and I completely respect your views. All I ask is that you in turn respect mine.
I will now get off my soap box and hope that everyone has a very blessed week!
