Religiosity For May

Every time I get frustrated with the state of American politics and think about withdrawing from the system, I remember these words from Proverbs Chapter 16..."It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness. The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: but a wise man will pacify it." Even if it feels like your vote means nothing, remember that foolish and angry leaders endanger us all. Vote. And consider your vote carefully. Do not be led into the trap of voting for the lesser of two evils as that still leaves you voting for evil. We have more than two parties despite what the media would have you believe, so if you aren't satisfied with your choices from the "big two" then broaden your research. Demand more from those who would determine the future of your children and grandchildren. Sermon over...Seacrest out.

  3. Who are you, and what have you done with my jaded, cynical husband? You're talk of people making a difference and that sort of nonsense confuses me! And mingling scripture and politics? Great googley moogley!

  4. Ditto - or amen. I can't tell which. But yes. (My friend does a weekly thing like this on his blog. He calls it a svithe because he is tithing a his weekly postings. But since it is one out of seven instead of out of ten, he calls it a svithe.)
