As the polls are closing here locally, I am saddened to think how much discord we have seen among fellow Americans during this election season — all to choose between two men, neither of which are really presidential material. I am calling for us to be gracious to each other, especially considering that most of those that voted differently were not happy with who they voted for — they just chose the lesser of the evils. Notice how much of the campaign was attacks on the candidates, rather than putting forth real ideas to improve the country?
I have friends that I love and respect on both sides. I know both sides have goals to help other Americans, as evidenced by the COVID relief passed by large, bipartisan majorities. I would love to see more people willing to work together consistently in positions of authority.
As we have seen the acrimony increasing from election to election, we have created the ComingTogether Plan described on this website. This proposal is a plan that Americans take care of Americans without trapping them on welfare and without getting the government involved in the detail decisions of life. Why do we require divorces for some people to get benefits, or take away benefits when people get married? Why do we incentivize people to not be productive?
Whoever wins the White House, remember Jesus Christ is still the King, and he calls us to love one another.
God bless y’all!
