Life happens here on earth. We fall and break our bones, we loose our jobs, husbands or wives. Suffering on a huge scale has happened to millions of people around the world since it was created. In each of these instances, nothing happened unless the creator of the universe allowed it. It is He who is in control, not karma, bad luck, icy sidewalks, or inhumane dictators.
Losing an election or a particular vote isn't the end of the world. The Lord will bring that about when He pleases. Whether the person I would like to have seen win the election or the opponent wins, my job is to stay vertical (know that He is in control), and do His will. The world is still lost and we are here to bring the good news to them and glorify His name. Lets stay focused vertically and make a difference, allowing God to work through us in others lives. Neither political party in power can not make the difference in peoples lives like Jesus can!
Remember the former things, those of long ago; I am God, and there is no other;I am God, and there is none like me. I make known the end from the beginning,from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, ‘My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.’ From the east I summon a bird of prey; from a far-off land, a man to fulfill my purpose. What I have said, that I will bring about; what I have planned, that I will do. Isaiah 46:9-11 [emphasis mine]
Vertical focus - not horizontal!
