Don’t “Miss The Forest For The Trees!”

When accusations are flying, don’t “miss the forest for the trees!”

Remember, satan is the “accuser of the brethren.”  His aim is always to distract us from the real focus of the Lord for us in a given time.  In the elections a lot of this is happening.  In the Kentucky state elections, remember: Governor Steve Beshear’s main goal throughout his administration has been to bring casino gambling to this state.   Thus, every elected state office is very important to him; he must create majorities in both Chambers of the Legislature in order to get his gambling bill passed.  The Senate has been the stronghold against his agenda.  Thus, he appoints Senate President, David Williams, long time foe and casino gambling opponent, to a judgeship to remove his opposition to casinos.  The Governor only needs a few more votes in the Senate to gain his objective.  Albert Robinson, former Senator and candidate for District 21 Senate seat (Laurel, Jackson, Estill, Powell, and Menifee counties), is a long-time opponent of casino gambling.  Thus, the most vehement, well-funded campaign is being waged against him.  Mistakes he made many years ago are being resurrected to distract the voter from realizing the real aim here—which is to gain casino gambling in Kentucky.   The fact is, former Senator Robinson actually has one of the best voting records concerning family moral issues of any Legislator in the last 40 years in Kentucky.  The man who may be the foremost spokesman for the family in our state told me personally that Albert Robinson was one of the very best Legislators in Frankfort, to help him with legislation to protect the family.  So don’t look at one or two failures and overlook the numerous successes for the family in this candidate.

“Don’t miss the forest for the trees!”  Let the Holy Spirit give you His overview so you don’t believe the “smokescreen” designed to keep you from seeing the real objective in these accusations; which, I believe,  is to bring casinos to Kentucky.
