Just Talking

Another conversation in line with a black man. Actually they were talking to someone else and I overheard them talking how we need to get back to God. I said out loud,  2 Chronicles 7:14. The conversation went well I thought, how even in the church we need to be able to pray together, black and white.  Our country is sick, we are so divided. It seems so many Christians are looking for a political fix, he agreed. I thought we were thinking and making sense. Then he said then we vote in Trump and how can we as Christians vote for someone that talked about women the way he did. I said he is not the first one we elected that had a problem like that. We would have been better off with Hillary. Of course being the conservative that I am. he lost me there. We can talk a good talk for a while but sooner or later it comes out, we are still looking for a political fix. Our problem is sin, and God does not need Hillary or Trump to fix us. We need Jesus and the pardon of our sins. I admit I voted for Trump, But how do I respond when it seems every conversation seems to point to we need a better  political leader?  We need God in our hearts, our lives, our homes, and especially in our country. I do not seem to know how to get that across. If Hillary had won we'd be hearing if only we had Trump. Our need is spiritual and not political. Listen to people talk for more than ten minutes and you find out they are still looking for a better politician. God help us to turn from our wicked ways and look to God for healing. God bless, LVZ.
