| Hey guys! I thought that this website was really cool! It is under "astrology", but please don't get it mixed up with astrology. It is all about dream interpretation. (Just like in the bible.) And it is amazing how true it still is, as was in ancient times, your mind dreams with symbols. Not all nightmares are bad, just like all good dreams are necessarily good. Take a look for yourself! http://astrocenter.astrology.msn.com/msn/DreamDictionary.aspx
Have fun! ~ Crystal | | |
| As a strong supporter of Grassfire's ongoing efforts to support the rights of the unborn, I have two critical updates that signal a shifting attitude in the 33 year-old abortion battle. **Supreme Court Agrees to hear partial birth abortion ban** Just days ago, the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to reconsider the 2000 partial-birth abortion case (Stenberg v. Carhart). Since being signed into law, the partial-birth abortion ban has been pinned down by legal challenges. **South Dakota Legislature Bans Abortion** Last week, the South Dakota Senate voted to ban most abortions, setting the strictest limits on abortion in the U.S. A similar bill also passed the House. The bill now heads back to Governor Mike Rounds, who has already said he is likely to sign the bill. The new legislation would make it a crime for doctors to perform an abortion unless it was necessary to save the woman's life. Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion provider (with more than 255,000 abortions performed in 2004), has already said they would file suit as soon as the Governor signs the bill. As Governor Rounds has said, he ultimately expects the South Dakota legislation will be battled in the Supreme Court. Grassfire reported following their return from Capitol Hill where they presented more than 500,000 petitions for the unborn, and took part in numerous meetings during the annual March for Life in January, change is taking place on the abortion debate, and grassroots are playing a huge role! In the coming weeks, they expect the abortion debate to heat up even more. **But they need your help!** They need people like you to help build their on-line team of Pro-Life supporters by rallying 25,000 new citizen signers to their "Petition for Life" petition in March! Please copy and paste this message to your xanga since I don't have may friends on here yet! Encourage your friends to sign their name to the petition and take a stand for the unborn in our nation! To support this shift in attitude on abortion, they need as many Pro-Life voices as possible mobilized and ready to take action in the coming weeks. Thank You for taking a stand! **To sign the "Petition For Life" petition please visit the following website:** http://grassfire.org/21/life.asp?PID=1100380&P=1 **For More information visit:** http://www.grassfire.org
Thank You SO much for your help! It's time for the truth about abortion to be heard! I don't know that I want to live in a world that if a mother kills her newborn baby she is sentenced to life imprisonment and labeled a disgusting murderer over every news media, but had she of decided 10 min before birth (during actual labor) she could have had a partial birth abortion, and the government or media would not have given it a second thought. What a double standard! Let's pray that with our help, that God will change the hearts of those involved in making this decision!

| Jaime and I went to the doctor to find out more about medical fertility options since the doctors have said that we were not able to conceive on our own. One of the "negatives" with every option we were given was conceiving more than one; most commonly 3. Wow! That was big! Jaime and I were going to have to think long and hard about this one! Later when one of the nurses from the same doctors office called to schedule our appointment, I explained that I wasn't quite sure we were ready. Like I said this is BIG! I mean, to have one baby is wonderful, two is such a blessing, three your talking about your mom coming to live with you, PERMANENTLY! Now, Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying anything bad about multiples, I'm just saying everything good about their mothers! (What a strong woman you must be Mrs. Dilly(mother of septuplets)!) I just don't know if I am that strong. But the nurse reassured me that I would only have as many as I wanted. "How's that" I asked. "Multi fetal Pregnancy Reduction" She said. aka Selective termination. (to read more about this http://patients.uptodate.com/topic.asp?file=pregcomp/11937&title=Preeclampsia)
Soon after, I hung up the phone (did not schedule the appointment) I thought 'What sick mind came up with this one?' I mean you would have to have a completely perverted sense of life to come up with this. You know, I bet he was sitting in his house, his four or five kids running about and annoying the heck out of him when he decided to hold a family meeting. "Kids, I have decided I no longer want to be a dad to so many children. I know I can handle it, God already told me that much. I just don't wanna. So, I'm letting some of you go, and since I'm a loving father and have no 'favorites' I'm just going to let you all run about this room and I'll take out the ones I can catch, how's that sound?"
Psalms 139
13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. 15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, 16 your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before I was one day old.
"God, thank you for the gift of children! Thank you for the reassurance that you will not give me anymore than I can handle. If you decide to give us one or a million I will thank you for the gift of each and every one of them!~Amen"

| So, I've been up all night just trying to figure out how to do this xanga thing. I've always thought it was pretty cool, but have never had the time to actually do it. Now that I quit my job to focus on school, it seems that I've got more time on my hands than I know what to do with. (I'm sure my husband can think of some things, like...washing the dishes ).
Romans 5
Peace and Joy
1) Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2) through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. 3) Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4) perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5) And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.
Yea, so I'm disappointed in the suffering part, but what great relief and joy it is to know that through it all it is producing hope in me that will NOT disappoint!
