Your Vote: Make It Count
Your Voice, Your Vote: Make It Count!
Last Saturday, we met up with family at a local breakfast hotspot.
We had the best time!
Of course, the youngest in our party stole the show. At five years old, she is adorable and hilarious.
We colored together at the table and all of us got to hear about her latest adventures in kindergarten.
My husband and I love that precious little girl.
I look into her eyes and wonder what her future will be like.
Sometimes, it’s a frightening prospect.
This is not the same America I grew up in. I used to feel relatively safe, but not anymore.
Our country needs prayer and a major spiritual revival.
Here’s another thing . . . everyone needs to vote.
Election Day 2024 is right round the corner and early voting has already begun.
Have you heard the disturbing statistic that over 40 million Christians do not vote?
Not only that, why aren’t more churches encouraging their congregations to vote?
I find that beyond comprehension.
Your Vote: Make It Count
From what I’ve heard, one of the reasons some people give for “not voting” is:
“Bad moral character”
Friends – we are all sinners and, even more importantly, we are not trying to elect a Savior.
There is only one Savior through whom we can be saved – Jesus Christ.
However, we are electing a President and Vice-President.
Whomever wins will be sitting at the same table with other world leaders over the next four years making major decisions that will affect our great country deeply – and that’s you and me on a personal level.
As evidenced in the Bible, God has, and still can, use “flawed” leaders to accomplish His will.
Besides praying, the best we can do regarding the election is to vote for the candidate whose platform most closely aligns with the Judeo-Christian values our country was founded upon.
Think of all of the veterans who have fought tirelessly for our freedoms.
You matter, and your vote matters.
Please pray for the election outcome, and also for peace in our nation no matter who wins.
Please vote, and encourage others to do the same.
The future of the next generation is at stake.
