America, still one nation under God?

  America, What have you gone and done? The great strength of our nation has always come from our diversity, we got the best from each country. A patchwork blanket made from every nation known to man. This quilt of many colors and textures, covers us in a blanket of security. It protects us because it is strong, and it is strong because it was made from the finest thread and yarn from many different places. Many different places, many different people, many threads to make our blanket, but always one resolve. A belief that we, all of us, whether born here or naturalized, that we are all an equal part of the greatest nation in the world. A pride born of hard work and suffering, each to his own personal struggle, but each with one common goal, that being the pursuit of life liberty and happiness. 

  But into our midst an evil has come, it grew undetected at first, but now like a cancer, brazen, it lets it's ugly tumors to be seen by all. Evil knew that our strength was our diversity, and so it looked to weaken the strength of our fabric by dividing us, working to separate the strands from the cords, the fine cotton linen from the silk, and the wool from the strings. Evil knew that only divided could we fall, and so it is evil that is so hard at work trying to divide us. How has this happened you might ask, how is it that we have allowed this? The forests of truth burn all around you, and yet, you can not see the flames for the trees. The things of greatest importance you ignore, while you squabble about silly things. 

  God looks at the kings and power brokers of this world and laughs at their feeble attempts. The politicians will rush towards the center looking to appease them all, looking to reunite a people who have been divided by forces and powers that they can not see. But they are doomed to fail, no matter the source, for the doctrines of men are folly to our God. You see America, this coming election is far more important that simply naming another president, because this election is about the very soul of America. The evil that has beset our nation and goes about dividing us for defeat, is not man but spirit, and men can not cure spiritual ills, only another spirit can do that. We as a nation must return to our founding father, we must return to the Lord. Simply put, from the Lord's perspective, it isn't about whether you vote Republican or Democrat, but rather do you believe in Him? Jesus is on the ballot, and he asks of you, Do you believe in me or not, and if you do, what are you prepared to do about it? What can you do you ask? Start by listening to the other guy, and tell the truth. Simple right? From this point forward, be honest with yourself and others, and let your yes mean yes and your no mean no. Nothing short of the fate of our land lys with your decision.
