President Obama's Faith

While in Albuquerque, NM this week, President Obama responded to questions about his Christian faith. He stated, “I came to my Christian faith later in life and it was because the precepts of Jesus Christ spoke to me in terms of the kind of life that I would want to lead -- being my brothers’ and sisters’ keeper, treating others as they would treat me. And I think also understanding that Jesus Christ dying for my sins spoke to the humility we all have to have as human beings, that we’re sinful and we’re flawed and we make mistakes, and that we achieve salvation through the grace of God. But what we can do, as flawed as we are, is [to] still see God in other people and do our best to help them find their own grace.”

But those with their own agenda will continue to push and spread the malicious lies about this man and our President. But the trouble lies within their hearts--not President Obama's. Many of them who raise the point are not even attending their churches regularly and seem to have forgotten "he who is without sin, cast the first stone," and "judge not that ye be not judged." Why should anyone think he/she has the right to question a man's faith? Our relationship with the Almighty is just that: OURS.

My Photo
Name:
Location: Montgomery, Alabama, United States

I am a retired legal secretary and widow. I grew up in Midway, AL and graduated from Union Springs High School (now Bullock County High). I attended business school; went to Atlanta and lived there for 13 years; lived and worked in Silver Spring, Maryland for seven years. I have a daughter and two granddaughters, and am the middle child of five. Both parents are no longer living. My mother was quite a poet and my father was a self-taught musician and a very good one. My 30-year-old nephew, Bruce Evans, was killed in the line of duty with the Jackson County, MS Sheriff's Department on July 18, 2000, leaving a beautiful wife and two beautiful children, ages 8 and 5 1/2, so I suppose that pushes me to make my voice heard about crime and punishment.
