Enough Politics and Bickering

Publisher Art Hall.

By Art Hall, Publisher

As we prepare to head to the polls, let us pause, asking ourselves, are the people I’m about to vote for part of the solution to our current problems as a country, or are they people who cast gasoline on the flames which divide us? Are they people who present reasoned arguments for why they think as they do, or are they the opposite, people who instead tell us to shout down the person with a differing point of view? In doing so, what are they fearing, that the other person might have a better argument, or that we are too dumb to think an issue through?
We have the nation which we deserve because we, the voters, put our leaders in place. We blame the politicians for the mess we find ourselves in, but we are the ones at fault. The Bible tells us to ask for wisdom and God will give it to us. Now is the time to ask. 
From the Bible: If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. – James 1:5
