The Morning After

Yesterday night, Barak Obama became President-elect of the United States of America, and in so doing, he made history. Surely, as his campaign has promoted, there will be many changes here in America. But this morning, I woke up and cherished a few things that will never change.

1. God's Sovereignty.
2. God's Commands.
3. God's Promises.
4. God's Faithfulness.
5. The sureness of our hope in Jesus Christ.

So let us take comfort in the fact that our hope is not based on our works, on the health of the stock market, or on a man that is elected once every four years, but on the person of Jesus Christ, Sovereign Lord over all. Let us await patiently until our King-Elect (chosen not by the people, but by God the Father) comes to reign . Until then, let us show honor to whom honor is due, so that we may live peaceful lives and complete the Great Commission (Romans 13:1-7, 1 Timothy 2:1-6).
