Update: March 9th

Today I went to go see Dr. Seuss film, The Lorax, which is all about saving the trees, but I can see it as a pro-life movement, just like Horton Hears a Who- "A persons a person, no matter how small".   


At the end of the film, a quote came up on the screen that caught my attention... 

“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not." (Dr. Seuss, The Lorax)
This quote speaks to me- unless I do something in combating abortion, nothing is going to change in my generation.   Because if everyone says someone else will do something, then nothing will change.   Unless we act and pray and fast, about 4,000 babies will die a day (Ok, to put that number into perspective.  On a super duper clear night, you can only see about 2,000 stars with your naked eye.  Now double that number and you get the amount of babies murdered, in one day!)  We must combine action with our words.  Gone are the days of being on the fence.  You are either pro-life or pro-abortion.  


At one point, the Lorax says, “I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees. I speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues.” (Dr. Seuss)
How easily I can change the wording... "I am Anna, I speak for the unborn.  I speak for the babies who have no voice"  Just like the Lorax was sadden by the death of the trees, we should be the ones crying out and saying "enough!" over the death of 54 million babies in our nation!

Now... Some of you might be thinking I'm going a little over the top about abortion, but innocent blood shed is one thing the Lord hates.

"There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him:
17
haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 
a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil,
19 
a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers." - Proverbs 6:16-19


Jesus I pled Your blood over my sins and the sins of my nation.  God end abortion and send revival!

 Training Day 21: January 31


Today I woke up with a stiff and sore knee :( argh! Really?!?!  So I spent the day relaxing by a pool and sipping iced tea... Oh wait... that's where I wanted to be :)  I spent the day icing my knee, working in the office with dad and making some meals for this amazing (and large!) family of mine :)


I had a super-duper surprise (well, I knew ahead of time) of seeing one of my really good friends, who lives down south.  Katherine came to hang out, drink coffee, sit by the fire and work of a film project with me :)  Love you Katherine!


Please keep praying for my knee and lower back, both are really sore :(  Well, I'm off to bed... so long till tomorrow!


 Training Day 20: January 30

Today when I walked about four miles, up a few hills, nothing much, but my knee stated to hurt a little near the end.  I finished my walk and forgot about the pain.  Later, during my second hour of dance/Pointe, my knee started to bother me again :(  So I took it easy, or so I thought.  A little later, I was doing a long jump combination and it really started to hurt, so I had to sit out for the remainder of class.   All that to say, I am icing my knee and laying low... Not sure if I will be able to walk tomorrow....  Please keep me in your prayers, for a quick and complete healing, for my knee and lower back!


 Training Day 19: January 29

Today was Sunday.  Every Sunday, I get to work with 20-50 children in KidChurch.  I usually teach the K-2 grade children, but for the past few weeks, the K-2 have stayed with the 'older' kids :)  I love watching the kids worship the Lord (some more animated then others :)


Today was my rest day for training, so I didn't walk....

 Training Day 17: January 27


We were blessed with another warmish sunny day on Camano Island!  Dad and I walked about three miles together and talked about justice films.  We have so many ideas, many of our own and also from others we talk with!
