Next week, everything changes-- not that everything hasn’t been changing all along. The change will involve the selection of the next President of the United States. As we make this choice, let me remind you of some things. First, if you are registered to vote (and you should be), go and exercise that right. Our motivation for voting is not that our vote makes a change (though it could). Our motivation for voting is to be obedient to the mandate given to us by the Lord. We are, as Lincoln observed, a nation “of the people, by the people and for the people”. So get out and vote.
Second, in Florida, we are defining “marriage”. We are voting whether to change the constitution of the state to say that marriage is between a man and a woman. If you believe that marriage is for a man and a woman (as opposed to a man and a man or a woman and a woman), then you would vote “YES” to Amendment 2. Third and most importantly, let’s intercede for our country. Let’s ask the Lord to bless us and protect us and give us wisdom.
