I've been really bugged about something since the elections have been over.......

Why is it that so many Christians were willing to give their vote to Obama?

They had to know that he doesn't uphold the same values, that they do.

They had to know that his thoughts on America were different than theirs.

Aren't they afraid that when the dust settles & his "share the wealth" comes to fruition it will probably mean that they are wealthy?

Don't they realize that when this courting period is over, what this man is really made of will reveal itself. And it may not be the handsome debonair man who has touted "It's about time, It's about Change."

Then this thought struck me. It's way out there but stick with me..............

It's just like Christians dating non-Christians. We always think it's OK.

The good in me will over come this one little flaw.

I'll be able to win him/her over.

It's not as bad as it seems at first.

After you talk to them and really get to know them you'll understand that they are more like you.

or maybe it's just........

that he/she is just so darn cute, sexy, wealthy, powerful. You fill in the blank.

Bottom line is........

we have formed an alliance that may or may not be for the good of the country. And closer to home - for the good of each one of us.

But not to leave on a discouraging note.

Since I hold fast to scripture and trust in the Word of God I have to believe that Romans 13 1-7 trumps any mistake that I feel has been made by the people of this great nation. And as much as it pains me to say it - "God is in control and I will submit to any authority that has been established by HIM.

So let's just hope that........

The good in us will over come this one little flaw

We'll be able to win him over.

It's not as bad as it seems.

After we really get to know him we'll understand that he is more like us than we originally thought.

And if all else fails - It's not like it has to last an eternity.
