As I sit here on “Election Eve” I am overwhelmed with the need to pray for our nation. I have felt this for the last several months as have many of you. As I pray this evening I am so saddened by the fact that our country is divided. It feels like two separate nations on so many issues.
I pray our nation can be healed. I pray our nation can learn to respect one another again. I am old enough to remember a time when you could have differences of opinions and “agree to disagree”. I pray our nation will remember our founding Fathers and how this nation was built. I pray our nation can be the nation that God designed it to be.
I pray for the body of Christ. I pray that WE can unite as one and not appear splintered in so many areas. I pray that we will stop “shooting our wounded” and “casting stones”. I pray that we can love unconditionally as Christ loves so that people will want to know “this Jesus” that we believe in and trust.
And I am reminded that it doesn’t matter the outcome….like it or not….I know that my God is still God. He is still on the throne. And Jesus Christ is still coming again.
