County Buys Building for $2.7 M Bernalillo County New Mexico residents received a tax increase last night from County Commissioners. Good Morning! As I have stated I am so against tax increases, tax and spend. Instead of digging deep into issues, the Politicians way to balance a budget is to raise taxes. How much more can the people of New Mexico and Bernalillo County handle? Our economy is in the dumps, highest unemployment in America, extreme poverty. ABQ Journal Report
They are trying to prove you can get blood out of a turnip! Squeeze water out of a rock!

Tax???!!! Spend!!?? There is no money left in state government and Bernaillo County government to spend! As New Mexico faces furloughs in state government because of a budget impasse between the Governor and Democrats, (Dems want to increases taxes in the state) Now comes word that Bernalillo County ABQ Journal Report wants to increase gross receipts taxes throughout the County by $30 million annually to avoid budget cuts!
New Mexico has the highest unemployment in the nation! Severe child and adult poverty! New Mexico also now ranks 1st in births paid for by Medicaid, a reflection of the state’s high poverty rate.
For the record: I am not a Democrat or Republican. I am a registered Independent in the State of New Mexico. I do not agree with either parties awful politics, they are playing a game of extreme self-interest with us, not all, but most. I thank the Lord for the Godly men and women that are in office. Look at what politics did to the health care bill. Awful!

We have been commenting on the budget mess in New Mexico for almost 13 years. Once again New Mexico finds itself broke. The Democrats want to raise taxes while the state suffers from the highest unemployment rate in the nation, extreme child and adult poverty. The state also ranks 1st now in births paid for by Medicaid, which is a reflection of the state’s high poverty rate. It makes no sense to raise taxes! New Mexico continues to pay the price in not diversifying its economy.
ABQ Journal Report The Governor is going to be calling a Special Session of the Legislature very soon. Will it help? Will the nonsense and ‘nothing noise’ stop?

Let us remember when God is in it, there is no chaos….Our God is not a God of chaos, without HIM there is chaos.
Please pray for New Mexico! Another failure….State Government is in chaos! The Albuquerque Journal is reporting that the New Mexico legislature has failed to fix the scholarship shortfall. The philosophy of New Mexico government seems to be, rob Peter to pay Paul, and increase taxes! ABQ Journal Report

Oh Please, join us in prayer……we have very serious Biblical problems. Mismanagement of money, not being good stewards of what God has given us. Killing HIS babies through abortion. The budget mess continues. God will not bless New Mexico until abortion ends. Governor Martinez has put on a hiring freeze to try and help the budget situation. The Democrats and Republicans are not coming together in Jesus to solve the real problems of the state. As the taxpayers of the state work hard everyday to put bread on the table, so much ‘nothing noise’ goes on and on from our elected officials. ABQ Journal Report
New Mexico has the highest unemployment rate in the nation. This state cannot afford higher taxes. Poverty is growing.
To see the poverty that many children in New Mexico live in, breaks my heart.
We do not honor God by abusing our children.
We need to humble ourselves before God!
We need to learn to hate our sinfulness, to the point of mourning over it!
We need to have strength under control!
We need to crave righteousness!
We need to forgive and show mercy just as we have been forgiven and shown mercy!
We need to continually work to keep our thoughts, our hearts and our motives pure!
We need to learn how to be PEACEMAKERS!
Matthew 5:9……”Blessed are the peacemakers for they will be called sons of God”
What do we not understand?
GOD
extends HIS mercy, grace and forgiveness toward us so that we can still draw close to HIM in this life and be assured of living with HIM for all eternity.
Let us all pray for each other, AMEN!
Post from March 22nd………
Money problems have plagued the state of New Mexico now for several years. Jesus is our only answer. Chaos is not of God, man creates chaos using his own mind. The state budget is in chaos. I pray that New Mexico diversifies its economy, and not rely on the government so much! The budget is a burning issue right now as the state may be facing closures of parks and museums. Please pray that New Mexico ends abortion as God cannot bless our state with the continued murder of His babies. I pray that New Mexico will repent and seek the face of Jesus and stop this wickedness. Jesus is the only answer.
Lord I pray that the people of New Mexico continue to rise up and stand against abortion! ABQ Journal Report
Why is the World full of evil?
“So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts” Eph 4: 17, 18.
The Scriptures call the mind of the natural man “blinded” 2 Cor. 4:4, “depraved” Romans 1:28, “corrupt” 1 Tim. 6:5, and “unspiritual” Col. 2:18. The natural mind thinks from a humanistic, sin-debased viewpoint. The viewpoint of the flesh directs its thoughts. The sinful mind is under the control of Satan and can never please God because it concentrates on things of the world and not things of the Spirit. The natural mind walks the road of hopelessness and self-destruction.
