Loose Ends

I want to finish off this week by adding some further commentary on a few topics I have already covered and some references.

This is exactly the sort of thing I was talking about in my post: Pray for Our Leaders. It is urging Christians to pray for a Mitt Romney victory. What happens if Romney still loses? Does that mean God doesn't exist or that Satan controls America? No. We should be praying for God's will to be done. God knows what is best for us. Vote for whoever you want, but know that God's plan is at work however it turns out.

This is a video that is clearly made with an anti-Romney, anti-Mormon slant, but I thought it was interesting following my post: Our Christian President. I don't know how much of the video is true, but I have heard some of it before. Whether you care about having a Christian president or not, a lot of people will take it into consideration (although many are misinformed.)

Nolabels.org
This is an organization I really like. They promote getting things done by reaching across the political party lines. They have ideas for congress and the presidency. I think it is something every American can get behind - working together.

A friend sent this link to me a few days ago. It is a well written explanation of why one woman is a Christian and a democrat. You don't have to agree with her, but I think it is worth your time to check out.

Finally, I would be remiss to not mention the book I have been reading lately: "Red Letter Revolution". It has really made me think about a lot of different issues (most not political.) It is about living out the words of Jesus I all aspects of our lives. I recommend it to everyone who claims to be a follower of Christ.
