It was a privilege to vote in this election. What a great time to be voting, regardless of the outcome for president. Our state senate race in Minnesota was far more heated and close, so it will interesting to watch the returns tonight. (I’m a political junkie. I don’t suffer from it. I enjoy it.)

Rom. 13:1ff is an injunction for us, and one I preached on this past Sunday. We, as Christians, need to be responsible citizens and vote, and we need to be responsible Christians and pray. We are to pray, honor and respect those in authority, whether we voted for them or not.

Paul did not drive around with a bumper sticker on his chariot that said, “Don’t blame me, I voted for the other candidate for emperor.”

Help us to live prophetically in our culture, Lord!
