Election Time

Election Reminder

As this time of year approaches, there is often a lot of tension that comes from the presidential debates, television ads, and the campaigning in general that goes on. But, as I was reminded by Annie from What She Saw, we have to remember that ultimately, God is in control no matter what happens. I think we tend to forget this when we get so worked up over who is going to win. As Christians, we have an assurance that no matter what happens, He is in control and He already knows the outcome.

 In God of This City, Chris Tomlin sings: 

You're the Lord of this nation,

the King of these people, 

the Light in this darkness,  

                              and the Hope to the hopeless.

As we go into this election tomorrow, these are words to remember and reflect on. We have so much to be thankful already- that we are a nation with freedom of religion and speech; a privilege that many countries around the world do not have.
