I went to the polls Tuesday, November 4th but not with the intention to vote. I voted absentee about 2 weeks prior so I avoided the long lines on election day as far as voting is concerned but it was the long lines that I wanted. At lunch time, a good line formed at an elementary school and it was moving slowly. I grabbed my tracts and headed in. I was overwhelmed with fear knowing that the polling officials would try to stop me but prayer got me through it. I didn't get 20 words in when the officials asked me to stop. I was not electioneering and felt I was in my rights to speak. She said I was interfering with the election process and that some people had complained. Interestingly enough, no one had even spoken to her at this point. She said I was not allowed to be there unless I was voting at the precinct so I asked her to show me those rules. She left and by God's providence I was able to finish my message before she got back.
This morning I went to the DMV and was able to deliver the Gospel to a sizable crowd. A DPS officer told me I couldn't solicit on state property so I told him that I had written permission from his boss (the Colonel of the State Police). He backed off and took one of the Million Dollar bills after I offered him one. He was very nice and seemed to really appreciate what I was doing. Just an update of what I have been up to and how faithful our Father is.
