Banding Together Despite Our Differences

Binding Together with One Common Goal
For my friends who’s views and hopes differ,
Here we are, backing multiple candidates for the presidency while attacking our brother’s favorite.
Or attacking the President himself.

We all feel very strongly about our nation.
We are all patriotic, and love freedom and one another.
If we don’t come to a place, where we learn to meet in the middle and compromise, this ship will go down.

I just keep picturing the crew of a big ship bickering among one another while it’s literally thrown from wave to wave in a storm, sails tattered, rain and lightening adding to the chaos and confusion.
The only hope in a situation like that is for clear thought and one clear goal to unite the crew amidst the turmoil.
The goal – SURVIVAL.

We must share political facts and opinions in such a way that we have no regrets.

We can never regret sharing truth, but even truth must be given with a gentle voice and love, or the reader will be distracted by their wounded heart, and ignore the message while trying to recover from the bruise.

What kind of fellow crewmate wounds their brother?♥
We need to be sorry if we caused moments of pain for others, repent of such petty behavior, and mature a little.

I weep for my nation.
Oh yes, I weep even now as I type, from the depths of my heart, because America is in a downward spiral.

The most recent decision of our president to block the Keystone Pipeline progress is so grievous.
Energy independence and twenty-thousand jobs.
Fact: it would have been good for twenty thousand families to have work again.
Fact: it would have been good to send a message to the Middle East; “We don’t need to nurse from your breast for energy.”

But there are more things going on behind the scenes that threaten the health of this nation and we need an amazing leader to pull us out of – not a ditch – but a whirlpool.
We are spinning down down down…on the verge of drowning.

If we have President Obama for four more years, pray that he learn to lean on God for his decisions. Pray he be able to bear his burden with grace, and pray that his goal mirror ours.

If we have another President, pray that he also be humble enough to bow the knee, knowing in his heart that he cannot do the job on his own.

Pray that he be the kind of man that – instead of pointing out our differences – will focus on the things that make us ONE nation under God, and will teach us to work as a team.

A team is made of the best of the best.
Many strong entities that come together with their similar talents to do a great thing.

This country must remain a refuge for those seeking freedom from oppression.

How are we going to band together to accomplish that?

Not by attacking eachother’s favorite political players.
But by uniting behind the common goal and working hard to achieve it while being loving, and polite to one another.

It’s a work in progress.
But it is not a work that should be abandoned.
If we abandon the work, then we abandon one another.
To abandon one another, is to abandon our country.
If we abandon our country, what refuge for brotherhood is left?

None.
No refuge.
And now we’ve abandoned orphans, widows, and men without a country who were seeking …

Is that the country you want?

A team is made of the best of the best.
Many strong entities that come together with their similar talents to do a great thing.
So let’s do it.
Stop the bickering, and save the ship.
