Yes, prayers do work.

But, politics is not the whole of life — it’s hard to remember when we read so much of it or see it on tv. I try to remind myself that no matter who gets elected, people will still work hard, take care of their families, enjoy time with friends, and pray. Life goes on.

Over the course of any of our lifetimes, the political scene swings like a pendulum. Often, I can’t see it until much later, but I think a lot of negative things pave the way for a greater positive— it’s hard to imagine Ronald Reagan’s first landslide in 1980 without the disaster of Carter’s preceding 4 years. So, no matter how the election goes, it will be fine in the long run.

I agree.

We have to both remember God is in control as well as Germany circa 1933.
