Believe It Or Not, God Is In Control



"They" are saying that folks will be undergoing so much election stress that the "shrinks" will be overwhelmed with freaked out customers in the next few days, before the presidential election...and beyond!! 



As Christians, we need not be freaked out. It's in God's hands. 

God knows the future and may have a reason for putting a senile dude in the White House, or leaving a potty mouthed, braggadocious business man.





I know, I know...sometimes it SEEMS like EVERYTHING is out of control, so WE need to step in to correct the situation, but here are a couple of examples to prove WE are wrong. 

Okay, when your pet (dog, cat, etc) is sick or injured we take him/her to the Vet. 



Our pets think we are torturing them, because pets cannot understand we are helping them to get better, by throwing them in a cage, taking them to a foreign location, and letting an evil Vet poke them with needles and such.



Our pet's brains are far below our highly intelligent brains!

Let me take that back. My dog outsmarts me all the time, but he just doesn't grasp the concept of going to the Vet, and being tortured, to get better.



It's the same with our relationship with God. God is WAY above us, knows the future, what's good and bad for us...and we don't get it when he does things that is SEEMINGLY bad for us.

Many think that having a big blowhard like Trump is bad for us, but God knows what we need, in spite of our personal feelings.



Conversely, we are positive that Sleepy Joe and Kamala will cause the destruction of our democracy, but God may want that, to bring about Armageddon or something.



Only He knows what is best for us.



On the other hand, we don't shirk our civic responsibility to vote, and try to do our best as concerned citizens, even though God will determine the eternal outcome for the masses of human beans living on earth at the time of his meting out justice, no matter what we foolish folks do!



The point is (yes, there is a point), trust in God! No need to lose it when Trump is re-elected or Biden is (gulp) elected.

It's not the end of the world! 

Okay, it COULD be the end of the world as we know it, but God's plan cannot be thwarted!



You probably never dreamed I'd use the word thwarted, did ya?

    Now have you done a Bible study search to compare present day political opponents to Old Testament Kings /Leaders ?
