Christians should keep election in perspective

I see a lot of political posts this morning due to the debate. If we are putting our faith in one of these two candidates to save America or the world, then we are way off base.

The hatred that is shared about these candidates is not different than the hatred that goes on in the world (we spread it.)

I want to encourage you if you claim to be a Christian to take a self examination before you share something filled with lies, or slander or disrespect.

Ever wonder why Christians get a bad rap? Lead by example, people.

Remember that we are just passing through this world and some day soon we will answer for everything that we have done.

When one of my family members or friends needs prayers, I pray to God, not to Hillary or Donald. They are humans just like you and me and they will fall to the same temper that we do.

If you believe in God, then you know that He already knows who the next president is because be He put them there.
