Obama Continues the Politicization of Abortion

On Friday(January, 23), President Obama struck down a policy that was keeping our government from funding family planning clinics that supported or preformed the genocide of the unborn. Our tax dollars now support one of the greatest genocides in human history.

President Obama says, “It is time we end the politicization of this issue.” I don't know what person would think that by involving oure government in an issue would end the politicization of that issue. What President Obama has done will not end the politicization of abortion, not that he could do anything to end the politicization of abortion. But anytime the government supports something with our tax dollars it becomes a political issue.

This money should instead go to organizations that are trying to help young mothers or expecting mothers that are struggling to provide or prepare for their children. This money should not go to people that make 200 to 1000 per abortion.

The Craziest Year of my Life

My world was spinning out of control, the only thing left was a blur of lights, color and sound. My father had just told the family that he was accepting a position as the Vice President for campus technology at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville Kentucky. This was probably the keynote of 2008 for me everything else of major importance that happened in 2008 can be linked back to this moment of stunned silence.

Moving is nothing new for my family. I was born in Orange county Californian. Just about a year and half latter we moved to Washington state. Six years after that we moved to Montanan. Three years after that we moved to Santa Clarita, California.

So because I'm no stranger to moving you must be asking what stunned me. Well I had spent eight years in Californian from the 5th grade through high school, I had strong relationships, I loved my church, which my family had spent most of our eight years in California attending, I had developed crushes and gone through the majority of my formative years in California.

Not only had I grown up in California but I had also formed my entire plan for my college years around California. I had been accepted into the school where the majority of my friends where attending and where my dad was working. I had chosen my degree and how I was going to use that degree. I knew who I wanted to peruse a relationship with. I had pretty much planned out my life without admitting to myself that I had and I had pretty much told God my plans with out say “God these are my plans.” This is why my world was going up in flames around me.

I didn't want to leave but there was nothing I could do. I couldn't attend the school I wanted without the discount that I got from my father working there and I couldn't afford to pay to live in California by myself.

So at that moment, the moment that my world, my plan for my life was destroyed God gave me his world, his plan for my life. And the things he has done in my life, his plans have been amazing.

The first thing that really took shape was his plan for my schooling. Know that I could not attend Masters I enrolled at Boyce college, the undergraduate program of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. This involved changing my major from computer science to missions. Well my goal to reach Muslims with the gospel hasn't changed because of my major changing the way I will has. I fact I no long have a plan, God removed my plan, and he has yet to reveal his plan. But I trust that God will show me his plan.

The next significant thing to happen to me besides my move and my change in school has been my work. With in my first month of living in Louisville I had a job. I have been working as a web programmer for dbs interactive. During the summer I working around 30 hours during the summer then around 25 hours during the semester. At the end of the semester I was offered a full-time position at my work. This position is going to allow me to pursue one of dreams to serve God. It is going to bring enough money so I can obtain my private pilots license.

God has brought about many things in 2008 that I did not expect. Well this year has brought about much pain and hurt having to leave my friends and my church God has constructed a plan for my life what will result in his glorification and has brought new friends and a new church into my life.

Why?

The first question you might have is, "why?" "Why did you(Timothy) make a blog?" The answer is simple God told me to. I believe that God directed me to make this blog to publish my ideas and adventures to the world for the edification, encouragement, and exhortation of believers, I hope you can tell what my spiritual gift is.

But the more important question for you is "why?" Why should your read another blog why should you spend my time investing in what this Timothy has to say? Because the Holy Spirit brought you here to read my words now and if He brought you to read what I'm typing now I believe that He brought you here to read and profit from what I'm going to write in the future.

So open up, take a step back and view yourself from another point of view. Then and only then focus on what God not me is going to say to you.
