A follow up to the election...


My friends, so the election is over...  it was a close and hard fought race, with both sides feeling very passionate about their candidate and the issues.  But the voters have spoken, the polls are in, and now it is time to get back to the things that are truly important:  Loving our family, loving one another, reaching out to the hurting, and reaching people with the good news that Jesus Christ is Lord.

Regardless of whether your candidate won or lost, there is only one God:

…yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we live. (1 Cor 8:6)

Our God is just, He is gracious and merciful, and He is sovereign:

Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and might are His. And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings;
 He gives wisdom to the wise
and knowledge to those who have understanding. He reveals deep and secret things;
 He knows what is in the darkness,
And light dwells with Him. (Dan 2:20-22)

Please join me in praying for our nation, our leaders (including the President), and for God’s blessing to be upon our lives, and our great nation.
