Angel Wings

I know I said I wouldn’t blog on the political end of things anymore, but this morning after reading several comments regarding Obama and the world’s reaction, the Lord put this on my heart and I believe it is a message to all of us who call ourselves Christians.  ~

You might think that’s a strange title for a blog, but after reading the reaction of the world to Obama’s election, a thought came to my mind….are people (who call themselves Christians-followers of Jesus) realizing that they are putting their hope, their all in all in a person?  What happened to God?  If we can get so excited about one person coming into office, one person becoming our next President, a black man becoming our next President, can we be as equally or might I suggest, MORE excited about God, our Lord?  Remember that Jesus was Jewish, but more than that He was a man, and what He had and is saying is NOT popular.  Remember that Jesus came to save the world and only He can get us out of whatever predicament we are in.  Not Obama, not Bush, not McCain, no person can save us except Jesus.  We need (as Christians, as followers of Christ) to get our heads out of our laps, to lift up our eyes and our hands and to see where our hope and our help comes from.  I challenge you to be as excited about Christ and what He is doing in and around us, in and THROUGH you just as much as you are excited about Obama. Many stood up for Obama, will you take a stand for our Lord?

Stood and still standing for our Lord~BaHecca
