The following is an excerpt from The Daily Walk - a devotional sent out by the Boulder, CO SDA Church every day. You should subscribe if you don't already receive it. Anyways, this really struck me as appropriate for this topic and all of us in general when throwing political stones at one another and our President.
"Recently, this country has become more and more divided politically. People are throwing hate toward each other over political beliefs and party allegiances. To get caught up in this is just simply unbecoming for anyone claiming to be a follower of the soon-coming Messiah. We are not called to place our hope in this world or in any leader of any empire. We are called to pledge our allegiance to the Lamb and to His way of living. When we pledge our allegiance to the Lamb, our empire ways are set aside for a life of Kingdom living that will radically change how we do life."
We are all strangers in a foreign land regardless of our political leanings. We have one King, one Lord; and we live in and for His Kingdom; not some national or worldly empire.
I pledge allegiance to my Lord, the Ruler of the universe,
And to the Kingdom for which He stands,
One King, with His Father
Ruling with love and grace for all.
