The Election is Over So What’s Next
It's official, the Presidential Election is over for 2024 and Donald Trump has been elected as our 47th president. The confetti will be tossed and the country will be moving on.
Here's my question: Move on to what? Will the noise stop? What about investigations and inquiries? We look to the President and our government to make it better, but that's not where we should be turning.
We should be looking somewhere else, not only for today but forever. A great pastor once said, "Don't put your hope in the elephant or the donkey. They will let you down ALL THE TIME. Put your hope in the Lamb. He's in control and He knows what's going on."
If you are trying to decide which side to be on, be on the side that will never lose. The elephant and the donkey will come and go, every four years or so but the Lamb is forever.
God has changed the hearts of both kings and people like me. I'll paraphrase a song that I learned as a child in Sunday School. I know there is hope because the B-I-B-L-E tells me so.
I like to say that I know what the future holds because I've read the Book and we win. I find this as a great way to feel less anxious and a way to stay calm in the middle of any storm.
I recently read something from Max Lucado that can help, no matter what side of the aisle you are on. He wrote "The future is not frightening if you know the future. And you can know the future when you know who holds it."
