Will
we as a people take a stand for truth and justice? We face a
difficult time ahead as political leaders jockey for position, power, and influence. For the most part, it is all just a lot of noise like
a sporting event. Each side supports and vehemently defends their
team and believes it doesn't matter about the process so long as our
team wins. But, it really does matter how we play the game. The game
builds character and integrity which embrace truth, justice, and
judgment. If the process fails to yield these attributes, how can we
expect a government to lead in truth and justice? It is not what we
say but what we do that defines us as a person, as a church, and as a
nation. God help us!
Truth
and justice lay abandoned in the street, discarded as refuse in the
gutter. What happened to the promise “to preserve, protect and
defend the Constitution of the United States,” and “so help me
God?” What happened to the greater good of all men, rather than the
selfish and ambitious views of a particular political party or social
group? What happened to the preference of others and their needs over
the narrow constricted view of what we want? A self-focused mentality
has invaded and captured our conscious resolution and thereby affects
everything we say and do. Time to Take A Stand For Truth And Justice!
