We like to think of ourselves as the good guys and our enemies as the bad guys; but rather than imagining that God is on our side, we need to get ourselves on God’s side!

As we enter the “voting season”, let us mark our ballots with our faith in God at the forefront. Remember, politics must not shape our faith, faith must shape our politics.

God works with a spiritual power and grace that far surpass our human schemes.

Human beings often want to manipulate God; but God is sovereign, and leads us to humbly align ourselves with God’s purposes.

When we are trusting in God and meet only frustration in life, it is time not to give up on faith but to go deeper in faith.

When our problems are far larger than we are, we can nevertheless trust in God.  Real victory in life comes not for the powerful but for those who have faith.
