Hello, True Texans!
If you've been in politics long enough and have accomplished anything, you've been the target of hate mail. I know many of you can relate. Well, I get plenty, and most of the time I blow it off, but this week I've received way more than my fair share! So let me just vent a sec...
Wait... what??? No, of course I'm not going to vent. What a waste of time. When I get hate mail, I just share them with my husband, and he always manages to make me laugh away my anger and disgust. The TTP staff is good for that too. Plus, when you get as many as I do, after awhile they lose impact.
Yes, politics is a beating. Every day we get beat up. And it's not always from the Left; it's people supposedly on our own side. You have probably experienced it yourself, so you know what I'm talking about. Family disowns us. Friends turn against us. Church people avoid us. Co-workers don't like us.
But here's the really cool part. You are never alone. We have a True Texas army that is fighting right alongside you, even when you don't see us there. We are praying for you regularly, even if you're not a Believer. We work with you in mind, even on issues you don't know about. We are... well... true to you at True Texas Project.
I know the battle gets wearying. I know the darts can hurt. I know what it's like to lose relationships. I know sometimes the work we do seems hopeless. Our numbers seem too small and the battles look so big. If I feel it, I know you feel it too. I want to be one to encourage you. Better yet, I want True Texas Project to be an encouragement to you.
You know what? You can scroll through the internet and get great content to watch online about all the things you need to know. You don't have to leave your house, drive across town, and then come home again in the dark. But get to a TTP meeting anyway. Be encouraged by the other patriots there. Better yet, encourage the patriots there yourself. We need community. We need each other. Just like our tshirts say...
Iron Sharpens Iron
All of our monthly meetings happen in the 2nd and 3rd weeks of the month, which means this week is your last chance for January. However, several of our TTP@Home groups meet the 1st and 4th weeks. Wherever you are, find a TTP location near you and get involved!
