I really believe

I really believe people can see our real hearts during an election time. I am appalled at some of the things I have heard people say about this or that person.

Let's respect the rights of others to vote for their candidates of choice. It is a right we all have come to appreciate. Before and after the election let's show the love of Christ and the power of the God to those near us. Let's also understand that some may be blinded or confused by the enemy in their choices. None of us are above missing something important here.

Let's try to see into the Spirit Realm and not just the Physical. God is orchestrating His glory in the Spirit Realm regardless of this election results. God placed us here as Christ Followers to declare His glory to all humankind and also to those demons who oppose Christ and us. If the Glory of God is not declared through our lives - we have failed to live our purpose for God.

Our chief task as believers is to reveal to the physical and spiritual world through our lives that God is God and He alone is God. Do those in the Spiritual and Physical realms see the Glory of God in power demonstrated through your life and mine?

When the demons - the enemies of God see us - are they convinced that the God we serve is God and that He alone is God? Do they see the power of the Holy Spirit? Do they run and hide their faces from our presence for fear of God's presence? We were made with a purpose to prove to the demons and the lost that God is at work in our lives, that He alone is the One true God at work in our lives.

In light of these thoughts - are the election results really that important? Or is something more important here? Don't get me wrong, we should all exercise our rights and responsibilities to vote. But really, God is still in control and God's glory must be displayed in our lives regardless of the election results. If God's glory is not being displayed in and through our lives, what then are we here for?

Is God's glory being revealed before those in the physical and spiritual realms this election period? While a neighbor of mine (a believer) placed her McCain/Palin sign in her yard, days later she became angered because another neighbor put a Obama/Biden sign in their yard. She later told me that they definitely placed the Obama sign out of spite.

See what I'm talking about? I don't care who votes for who - a neighbor is my neighbor and my friend and someone God loves and wants me to love. I want the Glory of God to be displayed on my street.
