I have quoted him several times over the past few days, but here it goes again. The great Theologian Linus once said, "There are 3 things I have learned not to discuss in public. Politics, religion and the great pumpkin. So feel free to call me today to discuss religion and the great pumkin, the other may need a day or 2 off.
How unnerving was the feeling last night if your person was losing in any of the elections as you watched television. Whether it was a local battle, the head seat at the White House or a person of interest in another state. It's just unnerving to sit and watch as you have only one vote to give your thoughts and pour out your passion. I do not involve myself in political discussions all that often as I feel that too many people are ate up with it. They sit and read all day long and send emails, blog or comment all over the web about things that they found out. Why don't people feel that passionately about their beliefs. About their personal relationship with a risen Savior? The very same people who post links and tell you to stand up for your beliefs are in other pictures and on other sites doing things contrary to their beliefs. As Christians we need to stand up right now and paint a perfectly clear picture of what we believe and how strongly we believe it.
Enough ranting, but it has even affected Alexa. Last night she was the one telling me to change the channel and check the score as she called it. She made me check about every 5 minutes to see, I kept telling her that Mom and Dad voted and did our part now we have no control over anything else. But still, she demanded that I turn off ICarly and Sponge Bob to check the electrical vote score. That's what she called it, cute huh!
I had a fairly productive day yesterday with work and ministry. I had a chance to eat lunch at Murray with some of my favorites while I was dropping off calendars for work. Made it to football practice and was able to drop off more parts for our good motor for next year.
So thanks for reading and sorry about the rant. It's my final one, so I hope!
