First question, my dad finally stopped ignoring me but come to find out he has an operation tommorow and wanted me to take him to and from as he wont be able to do it himself bc he will be under anesthesia and what not. In a sleepy haze I said yes but now i just remember how he said he wouldnt take me to my job. Its my responsibility. Im grown. Even when my child was sick he wouldnt do it. I feel my answer should be no but he has bulging dislocated discs from the accident so i think i should just do it. Second question, I kinda have alot going on but even if I didnt I dont think Im going to vote. I feel like were so close to being ushered into the end times. The antichrist will appear and reveal itswlf despite my vote. At this point I just feel voting is a bit useless bc what will happen will indeed happen. I feel i should just prepare myself spiritually. Wdyt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus told us to forgive and hard as that is sometimes it really does work best ALWAYS prepare yourself spiritually no matter if you vote or not . I tell my children that they dont have to vote but dont then complain about who gets into power if it is not the person they wanted but were not bothered to vote for them . God does have it all in hand Praying for you and your little one that you may have more peace than you have enjoyed lately 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though being over eighteen and an adult with responsibilities of your own, it is the pecking order. It is also good to honor your word since you did give it. Also, we are supposed to be God's example of Christ and are called to this as believers. Follow through with your agreement even though it was not kind of him refusing to help you when you needed it. We should not go back on our agreements, especially as Christians. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just need to suck it up and be godly as I should be. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's easy to want to do unto them how they've done to us but that isn't how we should behave. Jesus said to turn the other cheek, remember. In regards to voting - if we all thought that way, then how easily non-believers would be the only ones voicing their opinions/making decisions. It is so very important that Christians show up to vote, that our voices are heard, that our morals and values are upheld as best they can be. If we don't use our "voice" it will soon be taken away from us. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for voting, I'd love to see you vote for Donald Trump and any other Republican on the ticket. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's important that we stand up for what is right. I voted Trump because he is more towards supporting values of Christians...like pro-life, appointing conservative judges. Also, helping the economy, etc. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
