One of the funnyiest yet saddest things I have ever seen in my life was observed on YouTube following an Obama rally. I know that this has been going around for a bit but its very telling of our generation:
Sadly, I think many Americans are thinking about what others can do for them verses what we can ultimately do for other people. A friend of mine wrote in a blog last week that says it better than I ever could:
'....Again - my point isn't that the right guy won. My point is, as Christians, we have a responsibility this morning. It's the same responsibility we had yesterday, and the same one we'll have tomorrow.And it has nothing to do with declaring the end of the world due to an election that didn't go our way. We are to shadow God as he redeems the world here and now.President Obama is our president. - but God is still pretty important. If you don't like the election results, keep doing your part to change the world from where you are. After all...that's change you can believe in...' - Ben Redmond, Various Parables
