Jennie:
Yeah, we should help but no way will I let someone threaten my family and sit by. I'll take the 12 gauge even though I am little and protect my family's lives. In spite of my size, I am a country girl and we learned early on how to use them!

Jennie,
Amen to that. Texas is trying to pass a bill where it is legal to use outright force against an intruder at his/her own demise. This is very good. It can only be used if the intruder has serious intent to badly injure you or your loved ones.
I did not think I coud be a person to kill, but let someone come after my precious little son, and I can and am able to do so, if I have to. I pray that I never have to, but I would defend to my last breath my litte one.
Sincerely,
Anne C. McGuire

Dear Michael:
The Bible says: "But I say unto you, That ye RESIST NOT EVIL, but whosoever shall smite you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also" (Matt. 5:39).
God be with you,
Ray

I think this mean that if we know that He "works all things according to the counsel of His own will," Eph 1:11. So why if we trust God is in full controll of 'all things,' why would we have the need to take matter into 'our' own hands? Can't we trust God to take care of every situation?
mercy, peace, and love

Kat,
Hmmmm. Thoughtful post, and I am praying to God that he bring me around to this point eventually. I just get very dang protectice and gung ho when my son is involved, but thanks for sharing me this becuase this is an area I need to work on and just simply trust. I guess I am still confused about the free will thing, my reading is going very slowly, but that is okay.
Thanks Kat.
Sincerely,
Anne C. McGuire
