What have you done for me lately?

It seems that every time I come here and write, it ends up being a piece about how as a Christian I stand against the current administration.  And that is not really true. I try not to stand for or against any political leaning as a whole.  There are good and bad to both sides on the political spectrum.  I try to come down on the side of Christ and His teachings.  I think about what it means to be a Christian in these days, what does that look like when the rubber meets the road.

I decided to take a step back and look at the good things that this administration has done for our country.

If you are new to me, and what I write, I am a Christian, Grandma, and someone who can’t stop paying attention. And, if you have followed me at all on any platform, you will know that I do my best not to take something at face value.  I always try to do my due diligence. I research, whether its news or Bible, because I want to, as much as possible in this world of deep fakes, AI and media spin, know the truth.

Over the next little bit, I am going to be looking at all the good things that have come out of this administration.  I will be starting with the ‘headline’ and working from there to what that thing looks like in the day to day of American people. (To be honest, I will be including the people who live here who are not necessarily American, cause they are neighbors, too. I am unable to separate certain basic Christian truths from what I write and think about.)

So, lets take a look at some of the positives coming out  of this administration.  Tax cuts have been made permanent, drug overdose deaths are falling, border crossings are at historic lows, fentanyl seizures and enforcement are stronger, the Gaza ceasefire. Real Wages are rising and nuclear energy investment

So, these are major ‘good’ things that this administration has brokered in one way or another. I am going to be doing a series looking at each one, and how it came about, how it works, and what it looks like.

I will try to be honest.  I will try to speak truth.

Because, I am determined to know nothing among you save Christ and Him crucified, and I want to live that in my every day, in my politics, and in how I bear witness.
