           Recently I read a blog by Bob Russell, a minister from Louisville, Kentucky, that truly moved me.   He challenged me to think deeper about what I can and should do to support my great country, the USA.              The Supreme Court came down today, June 30, 2014,   in favor of the Hobby Lobby stores regarding their religious freedom to not pay for abortions for their employees.                                                                                                              Personally, I am thankful for this.               Let me be the first to admit I am ashamed of how some religious people and groups have stood up for various religious principles and overlooked others.   For the people of God to be drawn into politics for  power and money purposes is a big mistake.              On the other hand, there are certain principles in the way of Jesus that require bold affirmation::                         -Protection and sanctity of life.
