A path to post-election harmony
The US presidential election, which concludes today, has been described as one of the most contentious and crucial elections in the country’s modern history. Many voters on both sides feel that if their candidate doesn’t win, the country will be in grave trouble. Yet in the end only one candidate can be voted into office.
So how do we settle our thought, and know that regardless of the outcome of the election, we can move forward in a way that forwards peace and harmony?
I’ve found that prayer provides more help with this than anything else possibly can. One idea that’s inspired me recently is in the Bible, when the prophet Isaiah foretold the coming of the Christ. Isaiah uses the term “mine elect” in describing God’s Son, Jesus Christ: “Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him” (Isaiah 42:1).
