Urgent: Gentle Reminder

by Mama Seay

 

Patriots:

Tomorrow we will know the outcome of what may prove to be the most important election of your lifetime.

The incessant coverage of the election cycle this season has saddened me to no end in the lack of common courtesy on both sides. Some of the comments by people supporting the candidates I support alarm me as much as comments by those who oppose my candidates. As a Christian, I will be held accountable for every word I speak ( a sobering thought considering my mouth). That knowledge makes me think twice before I engage in making comments on Facebook, Twitter, or in response to news articles.

 

I have a few points I want you to remember as your watch the election returns and make comments on your Facebook and Twitter accounts.

 

1) The outcome of the election may be news to you, but the Creator of the Universe has been aware of it since before the beginning of time. Regardless of your perception of the events, the news will not knock Him off of His throne nor take Him by surprise.

 

2) The winner of this election will not be the savior of our nation. Righteousness exalts a nation. Not Republicans. Not Democrats. Do not be confused.

 

3) Your character is revealed both in how you handle victory and how you handle defeat. If your candidate loses, do not mourn as if you had no hope. Your candidate wasn’t going to be the savior of our nation anyway. (See point 2). More importantly, if your candidate wins, remember to treat those on the other side as you would want to be treated. In football terms, “no excessive celebration in the end zone.” That means no name calling, no rubbing noses in their defeat, and stay away from “I told you so.”

 

4) Nothing proves the Mama Seay adage, “Life is not fair and some people are stupid” like elections. It is what it is. Deal with it.

 

If the above admonition does not give you pause to consider your words before you write them, remember this. This is a golf ball issue. It will be a topic in next year’s PA Facebook presentation.

 

Do all that you do to the glory of God!  ~ Mama Seay
