Judges & Princes

I'm not really sure how much would really change if the Christian activists got their man (or woman) onto the bench. Are there too many folks who, without realizing it, are placing their trust in "princes?"

The Lord tells us through the Psalmist: It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes.

Some friends might disagree, but I don't see where it's our responsibility to fix the moral failings of the U.S.- God is bigger than the nations and he is greater than the "problem" of the changing morality of our country.

Nothing, including a great nation's rejection of Him, happens without God's letting it happen. We may not know why he lets certain things happen, but we do know that it is Him who lets them happen.

Certainly He is not anxious over who will be the next Supreme Court justice and for that reason there should be no anxiety in us, either.
