But the one email that's going viral on the internet is a "letter from God" that Palin wrote to explain to family and friends the special gift of their coming son Trig. I confess tears came to my eyes as I read it and I hope all those considering aborting a Downs Syndrome child will read, reflect, pray, and experience a change of heart. Sarah Palin is a mother, a courageous mother with a heart for God. She's grounded in the most basic truth of all -- God is the giver of life and no one else has the right to take it.
May God bless her and her family. He will not abandon one who acknowledges His lordship over her.
And here's the email from God:
To the Sisters, Brother, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, and Friends of Trig Paxson Van Palin (or whatever you end up naming him!):
I am blessing you with this surprise baby because I only want the best for you. I've heard your prayers that this baby will be happy and healthy, and I've answered them because I only want the best for you!
I heard your heart when you hinted that another boy would fit best in the Palin family, to round it out and complete that starting five line-up.
Though another girl would be so nice, you didn't think you could ask for what you REALLY wanted, but I knew, so I gave you a boy because I only want the best for you!
Then, I put the idea in your hearts that his name should be 'Trig', because it's so fitting, with two Norse meanings: "True" and "Brave Victory". You also have a Bristol Bay relative with that name, so I knew it would be best for you!
Then, I let Trig's mom have an exceptionally comfortable pregnancy so she could enjoy every minute of it, and I even seemed to rush it along so she could wait until near the end to surprise you with the news - that way Piper wouldn't have so long to wait and count down so many days - just like Christmastime when you have to wait, impatiently, for that special day to finally open your gift? (Or the way the Palmas look forward to birthday celebrations that go on for three, four days_ you all really like cake.) I know you, I knew you'd be better off with just a short time to wait!
Then, finally, I let Trig's mom and dad find out before he was born that this little boy will truly be a GIFT. They were told in early tests that Trig may provide more challenges, and more joy, than what they ever may have imagined or ever asked for.
At first the news seemed unreal and sad and confusing. But I gave Trig's mom and dad lots of time to think about it because they needed lots of time to understand that everything will be OK, in fact, everything will be great, because I only want the best for you!
I've given Trig's mom and dad peace and joy as they wait to meet their new son. I gave them a happy anticipation because they asked me for that.
I'll give all of you the same happy anticipation and strength to deal with Trig's challenges, but I won't impose on you... I just need to know you want to receive my offer to be with all of you and help you everyday to make Trig's life a great one.
This new person in your life can help everyone put things in perspective and bind us together and get everyone focused on what really matters.
The baby will expand your world and let you see and feel things you haven't experienced yet. He'll show you what "true, brave victory" really means as those who love him will think less about self and focus less on what the world tells you is "normal" or "perfect".
You will grow and be blessed with greater understanding that will he born along with Trig.Trig will be his dad's little buddy and he'll wear Carhartts while he learns to tinker in the garage. He'll love to be read to, he'll want to play goalie, and he'll steal his mom's heart just like Track, Bristol, Willow and Piper did.
And Trig will be the cuddly, innocent, mischievous, dependent little brother that his siblings have been waiting for_in fact Trig will - in some diagnostic ways - always be a mischievous, dependent little brother, because I created him a bit different than a lot of babies born into this world today.
Every child is created special, with awesome purpose and amazing potential. Children are the most precious and promising ingredient in this mixed up world you live in down there on earth. Trig is no different, except he has one extra chromosome. Doctors call it "Down's Syndrome", and Downs kids have challenges, but can bring you much delight and more love than you can ever imagine! Just wait and see, let me prove this, because I only want the best for you!
Some of the rest of the world may not want him, but take comfort in that because the world will not compete for him. Take care of him and he will always be yours!
Trig's mom and dad don't want people to focus on the baby's extra chromosome. They're human, so they haven't known how to explain this to people who are so caring and are interested in this new little Alaskan. Sarah and Todd want people to share in the joy of this gift I'm giving to the Palin family, and the greater Alaska family.
Many people won't understand_ and I understand that. Some will think Trig should not be allowed to be born because they fear a Downs child won't be considered "perfect" in your world. (But tell me, what do you earthlings consider "perfect" or even "normal" anyway? Have you peeked down any grocery store isle, or school hallway, or into your office lunchroom lately? Or considered the odd celebrities you celebrate as "perfect" on t.v.? Have you noticed I make 'em all shapes and sizes? Believe me, there is no "perfect"!)
Many people will express sympathy, but you don't want or need that, because Trig will be a joy. You will have to trust me on this.
I know it will take time to grasp this and come to accept that I only want the best for you, and I only give my best. Remember though: "My ways are not your ways, my thoughts are not your thoughts- for as the heavens are higher than the earth, my ways are higher than yours!"
I wrote that all down for you in the Good Book! Look it up! You claim that you believe me - now it's time to live out that belief!
Please look to me as this new challenge and chapter of life unfolds in front of you. I promise to equip you. I won't give you anything you can't handle. I am answering your prayers. Trig can't wait to meet you. I'm giving you ONLY THE BEST!
Love,
Trig's Creator, Your Heavenly Father
Paticia Williams is so jealous of and angry toward Palin that I would not be suprised if she exploded from spontaneous human combustion.
ReplyDeleteWhat a class act. I'm tucking that phrase away--"I only want the best for you." Amazing.
ReplyDeleteMake that Patricia Williams, please. I left out the "r", but I think everyone got the message.
ReplyDeleteThe letter is lovely, but it does not change the fact that she does not have the intelligence, education, temperment, or ability to be President of the United States. She's a great talker and a great tv show subject, but the thought of her as president scares this conservative to death. Heck - with a graduate degree, *I* am more qualified for the the job than she is! Palin for President? NO WAY!
ReplyDeleteWell...playing the devil's advocate, in view of what we have now and some of the other "intelligent" presidents (none of whom could possibly come close to the "most brilliant" president we have now) like FDR and LBJ who gave us the welfare state...and Jimmie Carter who gave us the Dept. of Energy and Richard Nixon who gave us the EPA and Watergate and JFK who gave us the Bay of Pigs fiasco.
ReplyDeleteHeck, Sarah Palin can't do much worse.
Mary Ann Kreitzer, you are quite right. Palin could not give us much worse. Besides some of these men did not have very good personal lives, and if one lies to one's family, can they be trusted at all? Also, our nation set up the coup de' etat that destroyed President Diem of Viet Nam because the left and some others over here wanted him out, so the smeared his name. He was killed in front of a Catholic church. I think that is what lost the whole war Viet Nam War for us when we were winning. Many accused him of things who were probably far more guilty than he was. God knows and God will judge accordingly. Perhaps he has already done so. Fr. Vincent Miceli, who wrote the book, "The Antichrist", seem to think so, and he was in Viet Nam at the time.
ReplyDeleteBut are we really looking for "can't be worse?" I am personally hoping for someone who can do a really good job! She's too much of a celebrity. And have you seen recent video of her young daughter on their recent tour? That poor child is bearing the brunt of her mother's ambitions.
ReplyDelete"Can't do worse" is the pathetic rationale we've been given for every Republicrat candidate since Reagan.
ReplyDeletePalin is good-looking, but Michele Bachmann has the looks and much more conservative/prolife street-cred. Palin's appointed a Planned Parenthood judge, among many other prolife offenses (see more at http://prolifeprofiles.com/palin ).
In addition, she was picked by RINO McCain, still supports him with all his baggage, and has been known to have taken the support of Soros, Kissinger, and other globalists. It is typical form for them to create a faux-conservative icon to rally everyone behind. Just because she may have taken a single personal prolife stand doesn't make her a good president. She certainly didn't do everything she could have to get McCain to fight Obama properly. I would have called him out on his weak knees during the campaign if I had had the pulpit of a VP candidate - the election was that important and she missed her chance!
But don't let the Marxstream media do your homework - do your own research. Alan Keyes, for example, has written some eloquent pieces on Palin.
