SHOW NOTES:
Here are some verses that remind us we have much to be happy and joyful for:
Rom 15:13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Luke 1:37 Nothing will be impossible with God.
Rom 8:11 The same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead dwells in you.
1 John 5:14 This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
John 15:16 You did not choose Me but I chose you, and appointed you that you would go and bear fruit, and that your fruit would remain, so that whatever you ask of the Father in My name He may give to you.
Heb 13:5 He Himself has said, "I will never leave you; never will I forsake you." So we say with confidence, the Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
Psalm 37:4 Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.

FOR COLORADO RESIDENTS:
Make a difference by going to https://protectkidscolorado.org/
Citizens who care are trying to put 2 initiatives on the November ballot, one that Protects Parental Rights, especially in regards to the transgender agenda in public schools where school staff are keeping secrets from parents in order to transition kids without their parent's knowledge. Yes, this is really happening. If we're going to keep personal conversations and decisions within the family, we have to protect parental rights.
The second initiative is to Protect Girls Sports for Female Athletes. It doesn't take a genius to see that boys and men taking awards, scholarships, privacy, jobs, and foundational rights away from women by letting men compete in women's sports. This nonsense needs to stop right now. So go to the web site and download the petitions and get those signatures. The goal is 250,000 signatures to make sure they're won't be any reason to deny these initiatives for the ballot. The deadline is short, so don't wait. We ALL need to get involved in order to make a difference for kids.
