Friday evening after work, we went to the Mall (my cousin and I). It was a girl's night out to buy make-up and supplies from Sephora's and to pick up her bracelet from Tiffany's. Ummmm yeah... we have Tiffany's. 
:blush3: 
Our schedules have been so busy that we were spending time catching up. In light of the recent news regarding Chick Fil A, we decided to have dinner there.
There was so much peace in the atmosphere. In the entire eatery area of the Mall, there were quiet peaceful lines at Chick Fil A. The service was outstanding. The staff personalized our orders and they were full of smiles and peace towards everyone.
As we sat down at a table to eat, we noticed something. At least 12 tables around us, and all of the people were eating from Chick Fil A. The other eateries (Subway, etc.) were empty. And it wasn't because anyone was trying to 'prove' anything. The customers were coming into the eatery, quietly looking up at the menu, standing in line with peace in their hearts.
This is exactly what was there, total peace. No one was defined as Black, White, Married, Single, Gay or Straight. They were people who chose to eat their meal for the evening at this particular place and of their own choosing. No one was snubbing the other food vendors. However, I genuinely sense that people were drawn to Chick Fil A by the love of God and nothing more or less. It was just that peaceful.
Families were there, children with their nuggets
, friends were there, couples were there; it was a night to share with those who care, either for the food or to support family values...or both.
I noticed that no one left a mess on any of the tables; they got up, cleared their table space and left... all in peace. Others carried huge bags out of the eatery, more than likely they were taking it home to their families or friends or perhaps to an office of evening workers. Whatever the case, they were on their way with their Chick Fil A...
There's something to be said about an environment that has peace, for in that peace, God is present and God prevails.
As midnight there are over 502,000 (and counting -- 502,722) people who have accepted an invitation to stand for 'Family Values' on Wednesday, August 1 at Chick Fil A... This speaks volumes. This country does indeed honour God's order of Marriage -- One Man / One Woman under God.
In reality no one has to attend Chick Fil A to prove this... not by any means;
for it is not about the 'Chicken', nor is it Chicken that brings a man and a woman together in Holy Matrimony.
For me personally, it's simply about time that someone in the limelight finally stood up to the world and proclaimed the Word of God regarding Marriage. And Christians are speaking up publicly and not backing down.
And it's showing that Christians refuse to be bullied by other organizations and businesses and politricks (yeah... the Poli tricksters and deceivers) and that God will prosper those who honour Him and not compromise.
Here' a Word and it shall come to pass. Those who honour God shall prosper and those who do not shall fail. Businesses who cave in to the pressures of the world, do not have God to withhold them and to prosper them. They are building their empires upon sinking sand. But those who put their trust in the Lord and choose to believe and not compromise and take the fearful dive... shall do exploits in business and in life and in Ministry. For God is not a God who turns against His own. He stays with them to the very end.
All throughout the Bible we see the Joshua's the Caleb's, the Nehemiah's, the Paul's...the Esthers, the Ruth's, the Deborah's...the Jael's ... they didn't falter, they forged ahead and God was with them.
Be blessed everyone. Chicken Fil A or not... Be blessed and put your trust in God and fear not those who oppose. There are more that be with you than be with 'them'. It's the Word... the Word which became flesh and dwelt among us and is now on the inside of us... The Greater One... Jesus our Lord.
Pray for those who are 'lost'... as Christians we cannot leave them in darkness; we cannot say that we love God and leave them to perish by condoning the gay agenda. It's not about equality, it about where they will spend eternity. In Jesus, all are equal leading eternal.
Amen and Amen.
ETA: If you click on the links in the left margin (the totals) a window will open and there is a drop down menu which shows the total 'goings', maybe's and declines... the declines are over 126,000 and they have plenty to say in protest of Chick Fil A....
I'm shaking my head at the language ... of the opposers.
