Well apparently the version of God called Allah was working overtime tonight...
” Speak the word from your heart not just out of your head.”
I agree, but I would change your message slightly to
say that in too many cases we have made a religion
of politics. Put God first and from your heart.
Believe it and change your heartfelt attitude,
and do that thing. You know the one.
There is a muddy spirit here that says, “Whatever
works or feels right right now.” There is no sense of
honor in that. Libya for those that even heard
of it from the conservative press would have
spread like wildfire and Americans would have
said, “no mas.”
Few would have lied about disability to keep the
money coming and would have moved their families
into a small apartment with a low-wage job to keep
from dishonoring themselves.
Few would have passed the keys back to their lenders
when they could have afforded to pay the mortgage,
regardless of their “under water” status.
Then few would have voted for an anti-American
communist.
But this would have required a faith in Christ from
far more people than we have today. Belief that God
is on His throne and so right makes might.
I (we?) need to repent from the heart and to be a
light shining in darkness again.
And yes, it’s not too late.
Thank you very much for sharing that. I am a Christian, and my feelings are surprisingly 50/50. I felt tremendous anxiety before this election about what turned out to be the outcome, but I have more peace of mind than I thought I would. And then I see your post, and it talks to the other half of me that feels tremendously upset. You remind us that God’s word keep things in their proper perspective. Thanks again.
