but does it sell?

Tuesday September 16th, Romans 14: 5 One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 The one who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. The one who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God, while the one who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God. 7 For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. 8 For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s. 9 For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living. I must admit, there are times in this election season when it is easy to forget that we are talking about the president of the United States and not the most popular kid in second grade. Sometimes I just want to scream both to the one I support and to the one I don’t support, Stay on Topic, I want to hear about your policies and who you will surround yourself with, not just across the aisle, but who and why. It is so easy when we are unsure of ourselves to simply blame the other. It gets us nowhere. God calls us to respect and honor the other, even the other we disagree with. It is OK to respect and disagree, but it doesn’t sell media time.
