We are challenged to search out the
best in all things in life. In 1776 a group of men worked diligently to draft
documents of greatness. We are faced today with the same mountain as they. We
must search out the good honest men and women to serve in the public eye. We
need to do all we can to learn about the people and the issues that will affect
us. Above all else we need to seek insight and guidance in prayer to find the
best answers as to what and who we need to help our country to remain free. It
is up to us to use that voting right. Some say it is useless to cast a vote at
all but we should keep in mind that God has given us the right and by not doing
so we show him we have no faith in his power to change things for good. I would
add that if we vote in fear for what one element could do and not for honest
people and principles we further show we have no faith that God can change
things either. We must keep in mind that many a great leader in history prayed
diligently for insight, strength, and help to further a cause for freedom. I
will in no way tell anyone who or what to believe and vote for. My only hope is
that all people will take time to learn diligently and pray sincerely as to
things of good that would make those men of yester year who gave up much for us
would look down upon us with thanks for doing our best to seek out the best we
can with faith not fear. Fear is a feeling that should only remind us to act
with faith.
Some would want you to believe that
evil is on both hands and we must choose the lesser of the two but what would
God have you do? Pray to God to know the honest choice and make it whatever
that choice may be. It may seem at times like the only way to really decide is
to have a toss of the coin. The only
true wasted vote is a vote not cast in faith. If in faith, we feel compelled to
cast a vote we show God where our faith maybe. The only way for evil to prevail
is for good men to stand idly by and do nothing. If we fear evil to the point
of throwing our faith aside we fail to apply the things God has given to us to
decide the good, better, and best that can be. Prayer, faith, and honesty go
hand in hand. Put things to the ultimate test and seek out the options, pray sincerely
to God for insight, and then act with faith as to the best to be of the best
use for God. Some insight might also be to ask can God effectively work with
this person or idea? If by some way we find our self-second guessing something maybe,
we must put it back to the test and find some amount of peacefulness with the spirit.
Be careful not to allow the fear of others to stop us from acting according to
the best dictates of our own consciences. There are many a naysayer of good and
honest. When God sees our faith, he will bless us accordingly.
I urge people everywhere to get
involve in their communities, state, and country. Seek good and honest people
to be in the public eye. If your so inclined run for office. I would however
caution anyone with a barn full of skeletons too put a great deal of thought in
to it first. If you are some one tampering with the honesty of the voting
system, man may not know but God does. Above all remember the sacrifice of many
that pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor that we could have the
freedoms that we do. Live for good and stand for correct principles and right whatever
that is. Put Sincerity in prayer!
