See, darkness covers the earth,

and thick clouds cover the peoples,

Conscience marks the ballot
Election over.
Majority decision made.
Dust settles.
In the bleakness of our present state,
We lie in wait, in hope, in anticipation.
Yearning to see God's hand,
Thirsting for His strokes of comfort for us
and rescue for the voiceless and oppressed.
Who has known the Mind of God?
He dwells not in the politics of this world,
but in the souls of His faithful.
Sin is not erased by laws or politicians.
By God's grace alone,
it is crushed in changed hearts,
with Perfect Love.

but upon you the LORD shines,
and over you appears his glory.

Isaiah 60:2

How cool it is to be faithful.
