Who's yer daddy?No one is in authority unless God allows it. (Romans 13). It's tough to digest that, considering some of the historic, and, perhaps, present authority we can see.Despite that, the fact is that the ultimate authority in our nation is "We, the People". It is more than a right, it is a duty of us in that authority, to look at our roles and exercise them in all of the myriad ways available. While we celebrate a voter turnout that went from 63% in 1960 to 57% in 2008, a closer look reveals the pathetic abdication of the authority placed in our hands and allowed by God. Our nation was established to guarantee the freedom of our individuals, but 37-43% of those individualsstay home rather than perform their most basic duty in the authority vested in them as citizens, as, the People. I'm sure everyone of them has a story. Blame it on "the big boys?". Sure, that's easy. The problem is that we put them (the big boys) in authority. God allowed it, true. However, God not only allowed us, but for those of us born into this citizenship, placed us the authority that is greater than theirs. Kind of sobering, eh? 10:28 AM - Aug. 28, 2009 - post comment
