As Moms, we all want the same things for our children. We
want for them a life that is anchored by faith and family and lighted
by their hopes and dreams for the future. And we want to provide them
with the education that they will need to one day go in pursuit of
those dreams. We hope they will grow to be compassionate, caring
adults who understand as much about the responsibilities of being an
American citizen as they do about the rewards. And we hope that as
they grow, we will be able to give them life's greatest gift-Faith.
Faith in God, faith in themselves and faith in each other.
But
to do all of those things, we realize that we need to stay involved and
stay informed about the events and issues that our children will face. Moms
For America is dedicated to helping Moms and their families get the
information they need about the issues and events that will effect
their lives and the lives of their children, as well as providing links
to information on family and faith issues
and current stories in the news.

Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any
trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of
gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.
"There is a fascinating true story about the Apostle John narrated
by the early church "Father", Eusebius, well worth reading.
The account goes that the elderly John took an affection and
interest in a young man from Ephesus and subsequently entrusted him to the
care of a bishop in the vicinity, and that, after a season, this young man
became entangled with a band of criminals, and was corrupted by them,
finally becoming their leader. When John returned after some time to search
for the young man, expecting to find him spiritually well and maturing, the
bishop despondently informed John of his fate.
Eusebius wrote, "The apostle tore his clothing, beat his head,
and groaned, 'A fine guardian I left for our brother's soul! But get me a
horse and someone show me the way.' He rode off from the church, just as he
was. When he arrived at the hideout and was seized by the outlaws'
sentries, he shouted, 'This is what I have come for, take me to your
leader!'"
"When John approached and the young leader recognized him, he
turned and fled in shame. But John ran after him as hard as he could,
forgetting his age, and calling out, 'Why are you running away from me,
child – from your own father, unarmed and old? Pity me, child, don't fear
me! I will give account to Christ for you, and if necessary, gladly suffer
death and give my life for yours as the Lord suffered death for us. Stop!
Believe! Christ sent me.'"
"The young man stopped, stared at the ground, threw down his
weapons and wept bitterly. Flinging his arms around the old man, he begged
forgiveness, baptized a second time with his own tears…[John] led him
back and did not leave him until – through prayer, fasting, and
instruction – he restored him to the church."
What an awesome story! I've used this story many times when
talking to the despondent backslider who believes he can no
longer be forgiven. "

Obama to Throw Gas on Fiscal Fire of Student Loan Debt Crisis
Friday, 03 February 2012
By Jeffrey Klein
This morning on the Fox and Friends television news show, anchors Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmead interviewed Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan. The subject was the steep continuous increase of College tuition costs across America.
It was an obvious segue from President Obama's State of the Union Speech, wherein he called for [no specific] action by these institutions to decrease their costs (sic) [pricing], or risk losing federal funding.
Duncan's answers during the interview, and a subsequent review of his bio, reveals that just like his boss, although a Harvard grad (majored in Sociology), he does not have a scintilla of good sense when it comes to applied economics and business.
But, even more dangerous to the fiscal health of our country and it's economic recovery, he is ready to enact Obama's student loan [balance] write-down [forgiveness] idea, which is nothing more than a thinly-veiled "college student vote buying mechanism"--where he would once again use taxpayer dollars like campaign money".
"A local
Christian casting her ballot, 22-year-old Marcelle Mageh, told Compass
Direct News that Christian persecution increased dramatically after
former president Hosni Mubarak fell from power and conservative Muslims
took control. “You see all the problems that have happened before they
got into power,” Mageh said. “Imagine what will happen when they get
into power.” After Mubarak stepped down, Christians’ joy quickly turned to fear as
they experienced a string of attacks from members of the Salafi
movement and other Muslims. The extremists attacked Christian-owned
businesses, burned churches and prevented congregations from opening
churches. Christians were also attacked in the streets throughout Egypt." -From Voice of the Martyrs
Editorial Note: Washington helped to force Mubarek out, one can't help but think that they too must bear responsibility for every Christian family, every child who are suffering so in Egypt simply because they follow Jesus.

to speak to the news media. "

high alert, according to an internal security document obtained by ABC

The American Conservative: What is really happening in Syria?
Monday, 30 January 2012
From The American Conservative:
NATO vs. Syria by Philip Giraldi
"Americans should be concerned about what is happening in Syria, if only
because it threatens to become another undeclared war like Libya but
much, much worse. Calls for regime change have come from Secretary of
State Hillary Clinton, who several weeks ago predicted a civil war. That
is indeed likely if the largely secular and nationalist regime of
Bashar al-Assad falls, pitting Sunni against Shia against Alawite.
Indigenous Christians will be caught in the meat grinder. Ironically,
many of the Christians in Damascus are Iraqis who experienced the last
round of liberation in their own country and had to flee for their
lives."
" A recent IRS report showing that current and retired federal employees
owe more than $3.4 billion in income taxes is fueling a drive on Capitol
Hill to fire and prohibit hiring the tax delinquents on Uncle Sam’s
payroll."
