“Rejoice with those who
rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.” Romans 12:15
Tomorrow will finally be Election
Day. I think we all have campaign fatigue and are ready for this to be over.
According to the polls the country is divided and the results are far from
certain. When we wake up on Wednesday half the country will be rejoicing over
the outcome, and half the country will be mourning the results.
My vision for what the
future of this country should be is much more closely reflected by the Democratic
Party platform. I will again be voting for President Obama and the Democrats. Many
of my friends and family disagree and think the other side will be better for
the country. I love and respect the opinions of these folks, but I just can’t
share their political views. If my team loses tomorrow I will be sad and
concerned about the future. I will then have to hope that my more conservative
friends will be correct in their judgment.
Whatever tomorrow’s
outcome may be, I am praying that we will all be gentle with another.
“Be kind and compassionate to one another,
forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” Ephesians 4:32
