Detoxing from the Election

Breathe.

The Presidential Election has commenced. Watching the Election results was like being a child and watching your parents duke it out in custody court. Mom or Dad? Who was going to get you? Today, we all have different emotions. This is normal, okay, and human. However, we cannot stay where we are.

Regardless of how you voted, many of us were reaching out for a savior that we will never get in a politician. Your faith should be bigger than your politics. Politicians are people too and they have self-interests and people (and companies) whispering in their air. They have and will always fail us.

The hope that you have been reaching for can only be found in Jesus. Not stain-glassed Jesus. Not flannel graph Jesus. Not political Jesus. Not diamond-encrusted and blinged-out Jesus. Jesus who has always loved you. Jesus who died for you on a Cross—not just so you can get an all expenses paid trip to Heaven—but so you can have the peace, hope, and joy in His Kingdom NOW on EARTH as it is in HEAVEN.

Here is the deal. Jesus accepts you where you are. Yes, right where you are. However, he does not want to leave you there. He wants a transformed life for you that leads to helping others experiencing the healing and wholeness of His Kingdom too. I pray that you find the true Savior today.

In Jesus.
