Fast Approaching!

Hello fellow TeenPacters! National Convention is fast approaching and with it... elections! I am so excited for NC this year. One part that I am most looking forward to is getting to see you again, my good friends. And meeting those of you whom I do not know yet!

If you have found your way to this blog I assume it is for one of two reasons. Either you know me personally and thought, "Oh cool, Brianna is running for Senate, I think I'll check out her blog!" or more likely you have no idea who I am and clicked on this link to try and figure out who in the world this girl is!

So I will try to describe myself and my reasons for running for Senate to you.

I am a Christian. I love the Lord with all my heart and I also love His people (you guys :D). I love to get to know people and find ways to serve them, or help them in their walk with the Lord. This is the main reason I am running for Senate. I have a vision for us as TeenPacters all across the country to develop close friendships and encourage/spur each other on in our walk with the Lord (Heb. 10:24).

Which brings me to why I am running with the Vision Party. The Bible says "Without vision the people perish" (Prov. 29:18) We as Christians need to "Quit Fiddling Around" and be vigilant to not lose our vision. There are two areas in which I think obtaining a broader vision will help our nation, and indeed help us personally.

The first is in regards to our declining economy and loss of jobs. All three parties seek to answer this question: "With the unemployment rate at 8.5% American jobs are slowly disappearing. What is the solution to this crisis?"

The VISION PARTY provides the best solution, looking ahead to the future and choosing to educate the workforce. We live in the greatest country in the world, the United States of America. Our country didn't just get to this position of influence and power by chance. No, great men and women looked ahead to the future and made sure that our nation was on the cutting edge, thereby making other nations compete with us. We need to continue to be developing new technology and create new, innovative solutions to problems to insure that we remain a super-power and not become dependant on other countries. The poorer countries of the world are generally the ones whose citizens have little or no education. Their government is often tyrannical, suppressing the people, and they can do little or nothing about it because of their lack of education. We must guard against this happening in the United States!

The second aspect in which I think we need to quit fiddling around and catch a broader vision is in regards to the lost and dying world around us. Eph. 5:15-16 says, "So be careful how you live, not as fools, but as those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity for doing good in these evil days." If we don't "make the most of every opportunity" and tell people about Jesus who will? Please come to my campaign table at NC for resources/helpful hints on being Jesus in the flesh to people. Also, read more about how important I feel this is in the post below entitled "Welcome to the Blog, and the Campaign"

All right, now you know a little bit more about who I am and what is important to me. I would love to be able to get to know you and find out how I can serve you. If you are attending National Convention please come by my campaign table or find me around so I can get to know you! If you have any questions or comments please leave them below, find me on facebook, or email me at: His_dancergirl@yahoo.com

I am asking for your vote - not so that I can achieve the high and mighty position of Senator :D No, so that I can better serve you and TeenPact and so that I can cast a vision people will want to follow.

Won't you partner with me?

Your candidate for Senator,
~Brianna Walden

Short Break...

I am taking a short break from this series (I know I just started it) to focus more on National Convention and my bid for the Senate. After NC look for this series on "Find Your Call" to continue!!!
