Elections

I don't know about you, but I'm glad the election is over here in the USA. It will be interesting to see how things turn out with Democrats in charge in the House and as of this writing the possiblity of Democrats in charge in the Senate. It might not be all bad to have a divided government.

On a local level, my community just passed a tax levy fo the school district. It passed by just 46 votes out of 4166 cast. Don't ever let it be said that your vote doesn't count. Sometimes it's close. I hope that in a divided community over the tax that we can work together to educate our kids. I know there are some people who are upset over the passage of the tax. Can those who were for it let it go and those against continue to be involved in the process of education?

As a Christian, I'm committed to staying involved in the process. Jesus was and is very involved in the issues of the day. Just read the Gospels when he eats with outcasts and challenges leaders to practice justice rather than just religion. Here in the USA, I can't just blame it on the government because I am the government as a voter. It'll be fun to watch and participate.
