O, for a Thousand Tongues to Sing My Great Redeemer's Praise!
Not the praises (or woes) of Hillary
Nor the praises (or woes) of Trump
Not the song of self-righteousness
Nor the judgement given through your opinion
Not the scorn of a people group
Nor the fear of the future
The believer is called to proclaim, to herald, to sing, to shout, to magnify, to exalt our great Redeemer and His great salvation. A great salvation that can:
Save Hillary
Save Trump
Save the self-righteous
Save those weighed down by unfair judgements
Save the scorned and the scorner
Save unto eternal life those who fear the future and have put their hope in man
I beg those of you who are "hid in Christ" to examine yourselves, to make sure that the messages you are proclaiming in the lunchroom, at the coffee shop, on Facebook, Twitter, and the blogs you write are words that promote the fame of the Lord, that lift the eyes of those around you off of each other and onto the One who sits on His throne, Who does what He pleases in all perfection and goodness, Who will, one day, wipe away every tear and make all things right for those who love Him, Who is the definition of hope and true peace.
"Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen." I Timothy 1:17
