My November 4th "ah ha" Moment

Still stricken with grief over McCain winning the Republican nomination over Mike Huckabee, I have wondered often what a "good prolife voter" ought to do:
  • Abstain from voting (i.e. turn off my brain on this one)
  • Write in Huckabee (would it be throwing away my vote or standing on principle - or both?)
  • Vote for Palin/McCain (I do generally like her politics from top to bottom - experienced or not)
  • Vote for Obama (at least he will end the war and maybe protect us from our country's devastating financial practices, so he says)
Tonight, after reading a very informative and helpful post by Randy Alcorn, I now know what I am going to do. I encourage you to spend a minute looking over this post, especially if you have found yourself, like me, struggling with what is the right thing to do in this election.

And no, I am not going to tell you how I am voting. But jumping over to Randy's blog will be all the hint you need, if curiosity gets the better of you!!

I clicked over to Randy's blog and got goosebumps as I was reading. Many issues are at stake here, but some are much, much, much, bigger than others.

Now THAT is honey to my soul! So true! I'm right there with you - our little guys are so quick to assume and you're right, they don't understand the big picture. Thank you for making the complete analogy. What a good reminder for us to trust and submit even when it hurts and especially when we don't understand. What a great post! thank you, thank you!
