Fear is a motivator of irrational thinking.
There is never a day when you should not take advantage to communicate with your elected neighbors. Remember, in this Constitutional Republic government of ours, we are the government. We the people elect our government from among us to defend the highest law of the land, the Constitution.
Yesterday, the Governor of Idaho, threw all of our elected neighbors under the “freight train” of fear. As a result, fear has reached another level of panic.
Logical thinking people don’t decide things on emotion and especially not on the emotion of fear.
I’ll say it again; I am fully aware of the real and present danger of this virus.
Here are a few places for “we the people” to speak up. I’m not shy with what I think of the government overreach nor of the bureaucratic tyranny we are currently under (in reality it has been present for too long, we’ve just been quiet about it for too long),
What should you do?
- You should pray.
- You should discipline yourself to be taught by the Bible and led by the Spirit.
- You should become as informed as possible.
- You should contact every one of your elected neighbors.
- You should follow up with everyone who responds with kindness and reach out again to everyone who did not respond.
- You should make the time to show up when votes are taken.
- You should never set your duty as an ambassador of Christ’s reconciliation down.

My recent letter to each City Council Member and the City Manager. You should consider writing a letter too.
Dear Twin Falls City Council,
I am thankful for your careful attention to the liberties of the people concerning the attempts at the recent South Central Health District Board meeting regarding a mask-wearing mandate and limitations of group size in both public and private property. Where there are many concerns about the current health risks we face in Twin Falls I am thankful to have you in place to speak on behalf of the citizens of Twin Falls to not violate our rights articulated in the Constitution.
I am aware that there is great pressure from other members of the Health District to put such mandates upon the people. I am pleased you have not shown favor to this kind of overreach. I respect that you too have great concern for the well being of the city.
Like you, I too am concerned about the health of others and am able to assess the risks and best practices based on primary documents from reliable health journals. I am always pleased to exercise personal responsibility within our shared God-given rights.
Thank you for your attention to the many issues placed before you. I am thankful to God for you. I bless the Lord to live in Twin Falls.
For the Glory of God

If you have a Facebook account you should visit Commissioner Hall’s page and express your thoughts. I gave a firm “No” to the question about a mask mandate.
