REMEMBER TO VOTE TODAY!! IT'S SUCH A PRIVILEDGE~

...read this yesterday morning...a good reminder to me...
"Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are inauthority, that we may lead a quiet adn peaceable life in all godliness and reverence..."
1 Tim 2: 1-2


Words of wisdom from the 16th President of the United States...
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.

You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.

You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative and independence.

You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.


Abe Lincoln

This is not a quote from Abraham Lincoln, but from William Boetcker, a German conservative preacher.

Thank you for the correction there! I didn't realize that. I got a forward w/ this quotation and it said Abe Lincoln. Maybe he quoted a quote. :)

And that comment above is not from me...
