my trust

by + Alan on March 22nd, 2010

My trust is in the Lord. As much as I am presently able to trust in Him, it is.

My trust is not in…

  1. The Congress or the President.
  2. Legislation, good or bad.
  3. The barrel of a gun.
  4. Any flag or any nation.

I will not look at these things and allow them to control my emotions, my hope or my ability to function as a son of God, a citizen of His Kingdom.

Too much – too much weight is put on these things in this day and  time, and in this place. The expansion of God’s Kingdom into this realm of reality does not depend on some bill passing or not passing. It simply doesn’t.

And, for the record, I don’t say these things because I’m disheartened by the vote passed in the House of Representatives last night. I actually think that’s mostly a good thing. Many who know me, know my anabaptist leanings in the area of politics, so I usually don’t say much about it. It was on my mind, though, so there you have it. The new blog, she has been used. :) Peace to you.

    I lift my eyes to Capitol Hill. Where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, maker of heaven and earth.
