ALL FOR ME!

Every year about this time, Torrey and I make it a point to watch, The Passion of The Christ. A few days prior to the movie, my heart and stomach are always in knots. I don’t even know why? I guess the anticipation of viewing once again the pain, agony and torture my Savior suffered FOR ME, is overwhelming.

As the movie so realistically portrays the beating of His body and the agony He faced, my heart is broken and I am unable to control my tears. I’m distraught over the pain I have caused Him; my remorse is great. His amazing love FOR ME is what keeps Him there, enduring the continuous torture, pain and ridicule. I am inundated by His love! He went to the cross FOR ME.

FOR ME He sacrificed His life, so I could have eternal life.

HE IS MY EVERYTHING!

I am not ashamed of the gospel, I will protect the truth regardless the cost. I am willing to be, rejected, betrayed, slandered, isolated, and mocked, to honor my Lord. Why? Because I have felt His touch, I have heard His tender voice; His love for me is like none other. Oh the joy in His presence is indescribable, the protection I receive in His shadow is priceless, and the peace and confidence I experience in Him, is in comparable.

He is my God, He is my Rock, He is my Fortress and my Deliver. He is my Redeemer, my High Priest and my Salvation. He is Jehovah, the Balm of Gilead, my Bright and Morning Star. His presence is intoxicating, His word motivates me, and I can’t get enough of Him. I love Him with all my heart…

...without Him, I don’t want to live.

 HE IS ALIVE!!!! WORTHY IS THE LAMB!

I love you Lord and until I am called away to reign with you eternally, I will proclaim your goodness!

One Day Closer!

The following illustration is taken from Patsy Clairmont’s book, “God Uses Cracked Pots”.

"When he was 7, I sent him off to school one day and a little while later there was a knock at the door. I opened the door and it was Jason. I said 'Jason, what are you doing here?' "He said, 'I've quit school!' "I said, 'Why have you quit school?' "He said, 'Well, it was too long, it was too hard, and it was too boring and a lot of people were too mean.' "I said, 'Jason, you have just described life, get back on that bus!'

Pretty funny story but isn’t it the truth. It’s easy to get tired of  “doing good”; I know I’ve been there. We can stay frustrated when we don’t see a change in the people we are trying to help. It’s understandable to get discouraged when we’ve been given a bad doctor’s report or when we experience a season of lack even though we have remained faithful to tithing and giving. Could it be you are drained physically as a single mom working 40+ hours a week doing the best you can, giving all you have and you still don’t see the light at the end of the tunnel!  Ahhhhhh- life!

Unfortunately, life is not prejudice to any of us and if we let it, it will suffocate our harvest!

The bible admonishes us “not to grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart!” Paul was talking to the church, Christians like you and me. They obviously, must have felt the same struggles? Paul knew when we continually “do good” it will become exhausting. Why? Because doing good, takes effort!

When someone continually mistreats you, it takes an intentional effort to return kindness. When you begin volunteering in a ministry and the demands get greater and more is required of you, it’s easy to consider walking away but it takes more effort to stay committed. When you relentlessly stay on your knees praying for a lost son or daughter, brother or sister or, for healing, restitution, reconciliation yet day after day you see no results, it’s easy to consider the enemies taunts,  “It’s not worth it, throw in the towel. Can’t you see your efforts are a waste of time.”?  It can be so easy to agree with him and take a back seat to prayer.

Satan would love for you to stop “doing good”. He wants you to tell that person off who keeps slandering you and yours. He is waiting for you to trade in your teaching materials for a little rest & relaxation on the weekends and if he can get you to stop spending time on your knees, who else will be praying for your children and loved ones? 

When we find our selves in the place of resistance, exhaustion, and frustration it’s time to recommit to an even greater level of faithfulness in whatever area we feel weary. We must make the decision to keep moving forward, to walk by faith and not by sight!

Personally, when I get to this point in my journey and the overwhelming desire to quit arises, I go back to Galatians 6:9 and remind my enemy – that as hard as he may try to stop me, I know that God keeps His promises and in due season I WILL reap (gather, collect, obtain) all the good I have invested.

So today friend if you are struggling in continuing to “do good”, and you are wrestling with the idea of quitting, please don’t stop doing good, please don’t throw in the towel, please don’t quit! You never know just how close you are to your harvest. It could be less than one season or one day. Maybe you’re just as close as one more prayer offered, one more sacrificial gift given, one more time to turn the other cheek until God declares, “It’s due season for this child, now give her what she’s due!” Don’t let the enemy rob you of your “doing good” harvest, keep on pressing forward even through adversity and take note, you are one day closer! 

Hang in there friend,

Exposed!

My husband and I recently had a person bold face lie to us and precisely in that moment, God revealed it. It saddened are hearts because in our own reasoning, we didn't see why they needed to lie or misconstrue the truth. (Oh, but God did!) When you ask God to expose and reveal, He will do it! God sends a "spiritual watchman" to guard what He has established. He makes us aware of evil and diabolic activity that tries to penetrate the boundaries of our lives, our families and our ministries--and He will do the same for you.

As soon as this person walked away I immediately turned to my husband to see if he was feeling the strong overbearing presence in the room and I said, "Honey, my spirit tells me that was a bold face lie." Sometimes he has scolded me in the past for making such accusations, but instantly he confirmed, "yes it was." Neither one of us had to second guess what happened, the covering of the Holy Spirit was so apparent and on guard exposing the true intentions and motives behind their lie.


Once we recognized the enemy we went straight to battle. Instead of allowing that spirit to dominate our atmosphere we declared war against it in the spiritual realm. We unified in prayer and sought God to expose this spirit of lies and arrest it powerless in Jesus name. Quoting the promises of God with assurance that "the gates of Hell would and could not prevail against the work of God and His Kingdom." (Matt 16:18-19)


Within a few hours (literally) that same person was back in front of me apologizing for a mistake. Mistake??!! Nope, it wasn't a mistake, it was God revealing to us diabolic activity and through our obedience in acting quickly with prayer, God stepped in and turned the entire situation around. Without us ever having to confront the person about the lie.


God forced that spirit to confess and bring back the truth! Why? Because satan will NEVER be able to overthrow God's will and purposes. No matter how many times he comes to do it, or how strong his attack might feel, God's word always, always, always, prevails!


(Luke 12:1-3) Meanwhile, when a crowd of many thousands had gathered, so that they were trampling on one another, Jesus began to speak first to his disciples, saying: "Be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.  There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known. What you have said in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the roofs".

The incident was just another confirmation of the level at which God will go to expose those people vicious enough to try and destroy the things that God has established. 


The bible says He keeps record of those who like to distort the truth, slander a person's reputation or taint a picture of someone that isn't true AND He promises consequences to those individual. There are no big lies and little lies, no excusable lies and inexcusable lies. The word of God says "to lie is to sin".


In our own experiences when confronting the person who has told a lie, does nothing but give them an opportunity to lie again. That's usually what happens when someone is exposed, they hide again. They lie again to cover up the first lie. Instead of approaching the person, the best weapon against a lying and manipulative spirit is to pray aggressively against that spirit (See prayer below) and allow God to serve the consequences. You may not see those immediately, but God keeps His word.


Oh if I could give you specific past incidents to help you to rely on God to render the consequences against a lying spirit, I would. But I would also be gossiping so I will refrain from details. Just trust me when I tell you to take your injustice to God, He will fight for you and HE WILL EXPOSE IT ALL!


Thank you Lord that you are true to your word!

This is a prayer that Torrey and I jotted down and pray(ed) when we were asking God to expose a person who continually tried to cause harm to our reputation with words spoken and also unspoken. I hope you can use it to combat the enemy in your territory.


Prayer

I over rule every satanic activity in the name of Jesus Christ that opposes the will of the Lord in my family, my life, my ministry, my relationships, my church. According to Matthew 18:18, I bind every satanic harassment, I rebuke the enemy of manipulation and the will of the devil that would prohibit God from being in control in my life, my family, my business, my ministry and my church!

I recognize you satan --and you are exposed. This ______________________________________(Name the activity) activity is arrested & bound,  in Jesus name. For this reason Jesus Christ was manifested that He would destroy the works of the enemy. (I John 3:8, John 2:15-17, Acts 16:16-19)

With God's power poured out over my life, we stand to serve notice to the devil and all his little demons, God will dismantle ALL of your strategies, tactics, plots, plans, motives and divisive schemes, which were designed to hinder, frustrate, prevent and delay God's original plans and purposes from coming forth in my life, my family, my ministry, my business and my church. 

Let God arise and His enemies be scattered! In Jesus Name I pray, Amen

Oh friend, I feel the power of God even now as I re-typed this prayer. You have no idea the darkness the enemy tried to invoke against us when this prayer was written a year or so ago. But I can stand here today and proclaim from the roof tops, OUR GOD IS GREATER! 

As a believer, you do not have to take the enemies threats. Stand in your rightful authority and use the word of God (your weapon) to demolish the diabolic activities penetrating your territory!


To God Be the Glory!

Handpicked by God!

What’s so special about being handpicked? I don’t know you tell me? Go back to the days of elementary school, when it was time to divide the class into teams. The teacher would select two team captains and they in turn would select, one by one, individuals to be on their team. 

Whoever was picked first would display a greater sense of confidence level than those few left in the end. Oh to be chosen first is a wonderful feeling but to be chosen last--- not so great.

The good news is God’s ways are never the ways of the world. Look at David, the least of those to be chosen, even born last. His brothers displayed significant outward statue and confidence. And because of their age difference they obviously had more experience in life then David. In the flesh it would make sense that Samuel would choose one of his older brothers. (I Samuel 16:6) Can’t you envision their faces when Jesse lined the boys up and Samuel passed over each one and then turned back to their father and asked, “Don’t you have another boy?” (I Samuel 16:11) I can imagine they may have chuckled at the thought that Samuel would even ask for their little brother David who was tending the flock. 

Thank God, Samuel didn’t choose in the flesh. (vs. 10 & 11) He waited on God to show him what could only be revealed in the spirit and David was anointed to be the next King of Israel.

I love that God takes the time to handpick His men and women and the qualifications He pursues are in total opposite of the world’s opinion. God looks inside the heart to see the real man or woman. 

How many times have you been in a situation when a decision was made to hire a person based upon their accomplishments, their successes, how much money they had in the bank, how long they owned their business, how far they excelled in their trade, even how beautiful they were to look at.  Oh how detrimental it is to our lives when we focus on the external and make decisions based on only what we see. When God isn’t included in the process we will suffer the consequences of those decisions.

Now back to David…

I believe God chose David because He knew in his own ability David couldn’t accomplish much, but with God all things are possible. God seems to specialize in putting us into positions, where we must rely on His work, His guidance and His hand to get us to the end result. Can you imagine being anointed King at a young age and not being appointed as King until age 30? I am sure he doubted his call many times and most likely his inner circle echoed those same thoughts.

But it really isn’t about us anyway. Our acknowledgment of who God is, wrapped around our faith and trust in knowing that we are anointed & called by an Almighty God to accomplish His purposes is humbling. If we are trusting in our own capabilities to handle the tasks at hand then we should be intimidated and fearful --- oh but if you are resting in God’s words and believe He has established you, you will accomplish all that He has already anointed you for.

So don’t get discouraged when you are picked last for the job, or better yet when you aren’t even picked at all, because GOD has a special assignment only YOU can fulfill and He will see to it that what He (the Lord) calls and anoints, He will establish.

THIS IS THE TRUTH!

JESUS IS COMING-----ARE YOU READY?




Ah well said!

Friends Don't Let Friends Go To Hell!

Kirk Cameron, you may remember him as the good looking guy from Growing Pains, has initiated a campaign called, The Way of The Master. A teaching series dedicated to saving the lost and helping others communicate the truth of the gospel. Their methods are amazing, and solely focused on warning people about the consequences of sin. In one of the video sessions Cameron said, “Friends Don’t Let Friends Go To Hell!” Sounds pretty cliché but very true. 


As much as we would like to think many would consider our efforts applaud-able, there are just as many who find our love offensive.  
Cameron explains in the series, that he has experienced it's easier to share the truth with a total stranger, then a friend. He said,  "A friend is easily offended when you suggest they are heading down the wrong path. They resist correction, because they feel accountable to your words, unlike a stranger who will never see you again."


Torrey and I, on a few occasions have been attacked, unjustly slandered, and wrongfully accused, simply on the basis of defending God’s word. Whenever you are in disagreement over a biblical principle with someone who doesn’t believe the word of God or harder yet, mis-interprets the word, you can expect opposition.  How can we not expect opposition, when Jesus warned us in n John 15:18, “if the world hated me, surely they will hate you.” 

Being hated isn’t easy; regardless it is our responsibility to continue to share the truth!

Look around at the behavior of society, moral downfall is not only evident outside the church, but it is equally as evident inside the church. Today, in most Christian circles, holiness isn’t a popular word. As a matter of fact, many of our so-called “Christian peers” are laughing and mocking those of us who are determined to remain faithful. (John 15:19, 17:16)

Their philosophy is to solicit as many lukewarm Christians as they can to side in their defense. They have played right into the hand of the enemy! They twist and construe the word of God and call it discernment, they argue and debate against absolute truth and call it justified.  Their conscience has been seared and as a result their hearts have hardened towards the truth and the messenger. The battle to defend the word of God requires committed Christians who have a strong will and determination to shut out the negative voices of opinions, pushing through the circles of indifference, to continue warning people of the judgment that lies ahead.

It's not going to get any easier to share the gospel. God foretold us long ago that “scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts…denying biblical truths”. The Apostle Paul also warned that many would be swayed from the truth, because of their “itching ears”, creating in their minds vain imaginations, which would lead to their own destruction.

MY GOD -------I CAN BARELY SIT HERE WITHOUT GETTING ANGRY AT THE DEVIL AND HIS DIABOLIC SCHEMES TO TAKE MY LOVED ONES AND FRIENDS TO ETERNAL DAMNATION. MY HEART IS BROKEN FOR THOSE WHO ARE DECEIVED, CAUGHT UP IN THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD AND WHAT IT HAS TO OFFER.

When I think about judgment day and what it will be like for my friends and loved ones who have denied the truth, it motivates me beyond my natural ability to continue, regardless of the opposition, regardless of how many are offended. My hurt feelings are menial in comparison to what awaits them if they do not receive the truth. 

Polly

In closing I want to leave with you an illustration from Kirk Cameron’s series. The Way of The Master. Please read it, it may change your mind about judgment day!

Material Written & Published by "The Way of The Master"
Obviously, those who flippantly say such things and act according to their flesh, don’t believe in the biblical concept of hell. Their understanding of the nature of God is erroneous. They make statements like God is a God of mercy and grace and they believe this justifies their behavior. Yes God is a God of mercy and grace, but He is also known as THE JUDGE.

Let me put it to you this way… "If a judge in Florida turns a blind eye to the un-lawful dealings of the Mafia, if he sees their murderous acts and deliberately turns the other way, is he a good or bad judge? He’s obviously corrupt, and should be brought to justice him-self. If he is a good judge, he will do everything within his power to bring those murderers to justice making sure that they are justly punished.

"If Almighty God sees a man rape and strangle to death your sister or mother, do you think He should look the other way, or bring that murderer to justice? It makes sense then, that if God is good, He will do everything in His power to ensure justice is done. The Bible tells us that He will punish murderers punish murderers and rapists. However, God is so good, he will also punish thieves, liars, adulterers, fornicators, and blasphemers. He will even punish those who desired to murder and rape but never took the opportunity. He warns that if we hate someone, we commit murder in our hearts. If we lust, we commit adultery in the heart, etc."

The reality of sin is eminent, hell! Jesus said that it is a place of torment, where the worm never dies and the fire is never quenched (Matthew 9:45-47). We tend to forget what pain is like when we don’t have it. Can you begin to imagine how terrible it would be to be in agony, with no hope of relief? Hell isn’t just a place with an absence of God’s blessings; it is literal torment, forever.

God has given His Law to convince men of their sins, and unless a sinner is convinced that he has sinned against God, he won’t see that hell is his eternal destiny. He may consider it a fit place for others, but not for himself. That’s why we mustn’t hesitate to open up the Law and show people they are responsible for sin, and that God’s wrath abides on him because of it. There are depiction's in the bible of what Hell will actually be like, Luke 16:24, Matt 13:42, 25:41, Ephesians 4:9, Revelation 20:15, Ezekiel 32:18-21, Isaiah 66:22-24)

Me, Myself and I!

Last week I was "overloaded" with messages from hurting friends who were needing a word of encouragement, simple advice, or a pat on the shoulder. I justified my workload to put those calls off until the next day and by Wednesday morning I had at least five phone messages to return along with other needs & requests that I later found in my email inbox.


I had just picked up a pen and paper to make a list of people to call back, when my phone started blinking alerting me to a new message. It was a text from a church member and this is what it said, "Polly, I know you are really busy but I have to talk to you. Is there a time I could come by today? (PLEASE!) Anytime is okay with me just let me know when to be there."  


Was God trying to get my attention or what? 


If you could have seen my reaction you would have been very disappointed in me. Let's just say the rest of the morning, I complained and grumbled acting like a spoiled, heartless brat!


Later that afternoon when my friend showed up I was determined to keep it short and sweet, even making a plan of escape if I needed to. (I know what you're thinking; I am embarrassed of myself too. Hopefully none of you can admit to acting this way. But this particular day I had my share of woes and truth be known my "flesh-woman" just wanted to put a sign on the door and say "go away, I have problems of my own.") 


Twenty-minutes into the conversation and I was so agitated, I couldn't even get a word in. I had somewhat "blocked her out" only nodding my head to persuade her I was listening. Until my thoughts were interrupted when she said, "... and Polly I knew you would be the one who would listen. I just don't have anyone I can confide in and I don't know who else would care!"


Oh brother, did I feel like the biggest jerk ever.  If jerk had an illustration it would have been me! 


Did she just say, "she knew I would listen?.....and care?" I could feel a huge lump come up in my throat, I couldn't even speak. I was embarrassed of my "superficial compassion" and to make matters worse, the Lord was quick to remind me, "She is mine, and I love her." 


How many times have I gone through the motions, completing what I like to call the "duty of serving", only to walk away completely disappointed in my selfish motives,  my need for public recognition and a pat on the back. I've disappointed God many times, by allowing my selfishness to win over the needs of another. I have no one to blame for my embarrassing behavior, except me, myself and I.


I learned a great lesson in that moment, even when we perceive no one knows our true intentions we can stand corrected, God does. He is always looking at what's behind our serve, and the motive for what we do.


Psalms 51:10-12  "Create in me a pure heart Oh Lord and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of my salvation and grant me a willing spirit to sustain me." 


Prayer - 
Lord, You already see and know my thoughts so why do I try to conceal them from you? Forgive me for my selfish behavior. Purify my heart, Lord. Give me a "new" love for your people! May I please YOU when I serve, may I honor YOU when I give, may I impress YOU with my actions. Amen


A great book I would like to recommend that relates to this post was written by Max Lucado entitled "It's Not About Me". It can be read individually or we have even used some of the chapters as part of our Family Devotional.

Abercrombie Who? - My daughter is worth more!

As the parent of a teenage son (now 16) I haven't had much pressure to "fight" the fashion world as some of my other "mom" friends. But I have heard many horrific stories about the battle to find decent clothing for teenage girls.

However, the time has come when I am now noticing my daughter's once "blocked & chubby" formed figure starting to slim down. The curves are taking shape, becoming visible through most attire she wears.  I realize teens mature physically at different stages, but it seems most of her friends are taking on different shapes too. Curves and more curves! I have concluded that all these noticeable physical changes, is a huge warning sign for me. I recognize effortless shopping days are quickly becoming a thing of my past!  And the more time I spend in the malls shopping with her, the more I am convinced I should have listened to my older & wiser friend and taken those sewing lessons years ago. Have you seen the itty-bitty shorts available in name brand stores? (I don't have to name those stores, most begin with the letter "A") Anyway, they make Daisy Dukes (from the Dukes of Hazards) look like she's wearing nickers!

On one of our recent trips to the mall, my daughter found a t-shirt she wanted to try on from one of the above mentioned stores, it was cute very simple, and white. Once she got it on,  she was so embarrassed she wouldn't even come out of the dressing room but murmured behind the door, "no mom I need a different color." So, I found the same shirt in a different color and handed it to her over the door. A few seconds later, she came out of the dressing room, hands crossed over her chest. Immediately I could see  the problem wasn't the color of the shirt, it was the material. It was just too thin to conceal anything!  I didn't have to convince Karson of that observation either. I realized the indecency bothered her to the point she didn't even feel comfortable for her own mother (me) to see her. An innocence I plan to protect!

She came out put her hands on her hips and said, "Mom every shirt I have tried on is too thin. I don't want a shirt you can see right through to my bra. I hate these!"  Yes ---I nodded agreeing! I quickly responded back, "I hate them too!" With a roll of her eyes she turned to head back in the dressing room, but noticed a poster hanging on the wall behind her, she pointed to it.  (You have to know my daughter, she doesn't hide her opinions. Her jaw hung down, eyes wide opened and with her facial expression she was letting me know she disapproved.) The picture was of a young girl maybe 15 wearing a white bathing suit. Behind her stood a boy, he was draped over her body kissing her neck. His hands were tucked in to the bottom portion of the young teen girl's bathing suit. A scene exclusively reserved for the bedroom and most definitely inappropriate for any teenager. I wasn't about to leave the store without letting a manager know that the indecent advertisement on the dressing room stall was uncalled for and an offense to me AND my daughter.

Needless to say, we didn't buy any t-shirts or shorts that day! I left disappointed and angry at the fashion industry and conclusive that I had arrived at a place I was dreading for a long time. On our way home, I questioned my ability to handle this "soon to be", on going battle with the fashion world? Karson and I had a long talk and I convinced her that she and I would be on a mission to make it a point to find clothes that she felt comfortable in, even if that meant she had to wear jeans and/or long pants to school & church.

Many other parents feel the same frustrations. You may be one of them. I began to search the Internet to find a name or contact person for the store, I wanted to send them an email or letter voicing my concerns for their inappropriate marketing posters  and the clothing selection they are offering to young teens. Upon my research I came across a lot of other parent links, protests, email campaigns all directed in stopping the fashion industry from perverting our teenage girls. Do a search yourself, you will be surprised. In my googling I came across a wonderful letter that inspired me to take action. I have made a copy of it below:

Dear Abercrombie,
You bore me. (Yawn, Yawn and double yawn) Your latest attempt to clothe our girls in trashy t-shirts like the one picture below is so very UNORIGINAL. Don't you remember? You tried the trashy t-shirt campaign already once before. Seems I remember it was right on the heels of the launch of your thong underwear to girls under 15. Who can forget the disturbing messages printed on the front like "wink, wink" and "eye candy"? Probably not the dads of the girl you marked the line to I imagine. All that to say I am not sure what led you to resurrect the old trashy t-shirt campaign, but I am guessing it's a last ditch attempt to bet back in the news. 

Which leads me to ask....is that old-enough-to-be-a-grand-pa, MICHAEL JEFFRIES still running your company? Did anyone tell him that it's no longer even considered fashionable to dress like a hoochie? It's sooooo yesterday, as in Britney-what's-her-name kinda yesterday. If you see Mr. Jeffries, tell him I have an idea for a radical marketing stunt: If he has a grand-daughter (and he very well may since he's in his mid sixties), would he be willing to do a photo shoot with his little princess wearing one of the trashy tee's above? Maybe he could stand next to her with his arm around her and do a cheesy thumb's up sign. Just an idea?


My guess is that he's feeling a bit desperate as of late, since net sales for the month of August 200 fell 23% from sales posted in August of 2008. Some analysts are even buzzing that A&F is past it's company sell-by date and bankruptcy may be just around the corner. So sad! It must be very tense around there. I imagine you guys are chalking up the sales decline to the struggling economy. While that may be a major variable, another cause could be your over-the-top "SEX SELLS" campaigns. While I am disappointed that you would once again attempt to resurrect the trashy-tee campaign, in a way, I'm also kind of glad. I personally see this as the final nail in your company coffin. Because he, everyone knows that when sales are down you go to desperate lengths to offend what little is left of your customer-base right? In the meantime, just know that moms like me will remain vigilant in equipping our daughters to identify marketing campaigns that prey on the insecurities of young women. And more importantly, we will encourage our girls to close their wallets to key offenders such as your company. And for that reason your days are numbered buddy --- mark my words.


Signed,
Vicki (last name) ----- I will be posting this on my FB and I hope it travels fast Mr. Jeffries!

I am determined along with this valiant mother, not only to keep my wallet closed from stores who try to pervert my daughter's self image and pure morals, but I also took it a step farther by sending a letter to the Executive office, letting them know that the clothing selection they offer is in complete violation of the school district my children attend. I mentioned that I would be posting this information on my BLOG and FACEBOOK asking others to take aggressive action against clothing stores who continue to dismiss our parental concerns. I hope you will do the same!

It's time we make our voices heard, our daughters are so worth it!
