"The greatest threat to America isn't the economy, isn't other nations, isn't one man or woman; it's the hatred and animosity we have towards people with different viewpoints." (Paraphrased, Pastor Mac Hammond).

How fitting and how true.

I've been staring at the wall posts on my facebook for the past hour or so and to be honest, my heart is breaking.

We're a nation fighting against one another instead of coming together as one.

How quickly we've forgotten who our true enemy is; and it's not each other.

How easy it is for us to name call, put down and hurt one another.

And all the while, the devil sits and laughs.  How he hates America just as much as he hates the nation of Israel.  He wants our destruction; unfortunately we are on that path.

And the truth is, the more we stay divided, the more we will fall.

I'm sick of hearing people say "America sucks."  We have no love for our country, no respect for what our founding fathers created; the foundation they laid for this nation, the vision they had for this country.  We don't know our true history..

I love this nation, I'm so blessed to be born here.  I could have been born anywhere, but God put me here, for this time, for this hour.

I think what makes me the most sad is that the Bible says to "Love your enemies, pray for those who persecute you..." Do we really pray for those who persecute us, or do we pray that they get persecuted in return?  Regardless of what viewpoint you hold, the truth is, that God is "crazy & insanely in love with you.." as my friend put it. 

"For God so loved the world that He freely gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but everlasting life."

The outcome of this election will change this nation no matter what., but I also know God will take care of His kids no matter what.

 It's just time we start acknowledging Jesus.
