Expediency has a place in some battles, but it is no substitute for strategy.

Now, since we seem incapable of electing the kind of leaders we want, there is no apparent strategy that I can discern. All of which aids me in placing all my faith in the One that Jesus called Our Father in Heaven.

When a leader who can unite most Americans emerges, I wonder what kind of person that will be. I wouldn't put my faith in any one American leader without seeing the fruit of his/her labors for a good long while.

My belief is that our exceptional political success was based on the founders’ understanding of the depravity of mankind. Reducing the power of government was the key to controlling the government. I don’t hear any Republicans suggesting reducing the power of the beast, therefore they have become part of the problem.

God is still in control, but he is not a Republican. I fear that many worry more about temporal power while abandoning the very source of true power. An R beside one’s name does not assure moral clarity or personal integrity. We are lost as a nation without a great spiritual revival, and no political messiah will save us.
