on the eve of election day...

john piper shares some wonderful, encouraging points on the election. please take time to watch the entire video. about halfway through, he admonishes that we should not be so worked up about this election... that we should not react as though the whole world is going to collapse if our opponent wins. he goes on to encourage us to say,

"i am God's child. Jesus Christ is my King. america is not my allegiance. God & heaven are my allegiance. God can turn this for good no matter who gets elected. i will always be pursuing His kingdom first and let the political chips fall where they will."

keep that in mind as we bite off our fingernails in front of the tv tomorrow evening!
