For unto us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this. Isaiah 9:6-8
Well, it's election day. (Your brother was an election inspector, by the way!) The turnout seems like it's pretty good, which is usually also good for democrats, the wonks say.
I’m grateful that we live in a country where the voice of its citizens is included in the election process, but I’m even more thankful that God is on His throne. Through the work of Jesus, His kingdom has broken into our world and is moving through it.
Whether we are on the peak of the mountain or in the depths of the valley, God is present, and we can have the confidence that He will accomplish everything that is in His plan for our world, our country, and our lives.
God isn't bothered by election results. Term limits don’t apply to Him. He’s always on the job. He reigns in justice and righteousness. He never sleeps, never does wrong, and never disappoints – forever and ever. So no matter who gets elected in America, God still reigns.
