Good Morning, God
There is a point being made in the headlines that we, the people, want and need "government" but do not want the "politics". Basically, this is interpreted to mean that we want, even expect, the government to provide services that keep us safe - a military, fire and police protection, keep us fed - an agricultural system that protects our food, and a financial system that keeps us solvent and that enables us to purchase the things we need to live, work and play, to enjoy life.
It is also said that we don't want the wrangling, the deal-making, the posturing, the debates, the filibusters that we have with "politics".
Well, Lord, when we have the system we have, a system that prides itself that is is based on checks and balances, there really isn't any way around "politics" - unless one side or the other abdicates its responsibilities.
"Nough 'bout politics and government. Thank you, Lord, that you alone are in charge and that your governance isn't open to debate!
In Jesus name, Amen
