Are you tired of the political ads yet? We go to the mailbox and come back with a handful of flyers promoting this candidate and that candidate. I don't know about you but we stuff ours in the wastebasket with hardly a glance. The flyers expound on how wonderful a certain person is and/or how awful their opposition is. You turn on the television and over and over the same ads run telling you who you should vote for and why. Now, the whole thing is this: Who do you believe? How do you really know which candidate is best? Are all the Democrats right? Or are the Republicans right? Or, how about those few independents? Is the candidate with the most money the right one? I recently looked at the Arkansas General Election four page flyer with names of people running for office. The majority of those people I haven't heard of. How do I know for whom to vote? We look at Washington and all the hearings of people who are accused of various things. How many of those people are guilty? How many are framed? How many lie their way out of things only to continue to bring our country to it's knees.
As Christians, all we can do is pray that God will show us His desires. We must pray for Him to show us which candidates are truthful; which are not.
Isn't it wonderful to know that there is One we can count on to be truthful in all things? Our God cannot lie.
" The sum of Your word is truth, And every one of Your righteous ordinances is everlasting." Psalm 119:160 NASB
