Marching for Life

Image
The Call-Houston was a good experience.  I love large gatherings of like-minded Christians.  It feels like a little bit of Heaven to me. Here i am with my cohorts - or the particular cohorts i rode with (i guess everyone there was technically my cohort; i just didn't know them or ride with them).  I'm the one in red.  Hahahahaha! Here's a cool picture of the marchers. I think the whole thing turned out a little bit different than expected for everyone.  Apparently, the organizers of this event were not expecting the huge turn-out that arrived.  I don't know what number they expected, and i don't know what number turned out, but i have some numbers that will help give an idea. First, the city of Houston would allow only 3000 marchers at one time.  I know we had two phases of marchers, but i think we actually had three.  I was in the last phase.  In addition, there were 600 people lining the freeway, wearing LIFE tape over their mou...

From life A week from tomorrow, i expect, hope, and plan to participate in the bound4life justice march in Houston. We're protesting the establishment of what would be the 2nd largest abortion facility on the Earth, which appears to be targeting minorities in the Houston area. And by the size of the facility, they're planning to kill off an entire generation of minorities in our area. The potential for death that this place would have is absolutely nauseating! This event is very heavy on my heart right now. 'The Abortion Issue' has become so normal and overlooked, i think, by many Christians. I don't want to be one of them anymore. Thousands of babies are dying all the time, and i don't think we can afford to be complacent about that. When i use the words 'protest march' and 'abortion' in the same paragraph, some people might imagine bombs and guns and yelling and whatnot. So please let me clarify. This event is organized by The Call...

Flash Forward: The Call Nashville 07-07-07, Pt. 1.

Now, i'm going to flash forward to the very recent past so that i can tell about my experience at The Call Nashville (www.thecall.com) Follow that link for more information about what The Call is. Basically, it's a really really BIG prayer meeting that lasts all day long. It's not a party. It's a solemn assembly. The people who come are serious about seeking God. I've never been to any of The Calls before. I think this one was like the eighth...i'm not sure about that number. The focus of our prayers had a lot to do with the scripture that says, "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven and forgive their sins and heal their land." (2nd Chronicles 7:14). I don't know if everyone is noticing it or not, but our country is becoming more and more depraved. But a lot of people want to call this liberality or freedom, but the truth is tha...
