By Wednesday morning the election will be over. While I'd love to promise you that after all of these months of rancor and division we will finally be a nation at peace, I can't. No matter the results of this election, no matter who wins, we will still be a nation filled with problems and division. In fact, if there was such a thing as a candidate we could all agree on, even that would not result in peace. We would still have tribulations and trials and distress and frustration. That's normal life in a fallen world. Looking for peace to be found in a set of ideal circumstances in this life is an exercise in futility.

ReplyDeleteAmanda, I'm so thankful that my peace comes from Jesus, not from what happens on Election Day!
