So I said I was going to write a blog on why I was voting
for Matt Frey for POTUS this November.
And I was certainly working through that when I remembered that I really
didn’t care about matters of the political realm any longer. So I set it on the shelf.
But here I am, back at the keys trying to wordsmith my way
to blogospherical supremacy. In other
words, I’m trying to use up space.
Where I will admit that I have never once in my illustrious
voting “right” ever considered the faith or lack there of faith as a criteria
for extending my duty, I have had decided to allow faith to be thee number one
election determining factor for THIS POTUS election.
Where as much as I can stomach researching the faith of two
fallible men, I do not undertake to put myself in position to replace God as
the ultimate authority of where a man stands in relations to Himself. Simply, I only have a man’s outward actions,
words, experience, history, etc. to make me understand if a man is walking by
faith. God knows the heart. I can’t.
I make no bones, as my Facebook friends will attest too,
that I am more so right resting.
(though truly I am trying to return to a more Apolitcal position and
allow God’s truth guide in matters that must involve His established government.)
So to say that I am less impressed with a man who believes
in aliens, and even less impressed with a man who believes in illegal aliens
would be such a crude and too simple way of explaining why I will be voting for
Matt Frey for POTUS.
But what about the politics? What about taxes, healthcare, stimulus? What about the Fed, the Middle East, the war on terror? What about abortion, gay marriage, civil
rights?
What about? What
about? What about?
My head swirls when I consider all of this. Really, doesn’t everyone’s head swirl when
considering all of this? I can’t solve
every issue. And really, neither can
anyone who claims he/she goes into politics to make a difference, or make
change.
Really, how can we expect any sort of sense of any thing
apart from God? Quite simply put, we
can’t.
“I, I am the Lord, and there is no deliverer
besides me.”
Isaiah 43:11
