A week ago this time we were all recovering from what seemed to be the longest, most wearisome campaign in history. In the final weeks leading up to last Tuesday's election, some of us completely sympathized with the little girl on the YouTube video who was brought to tears by the barrage of campaign ads.
Well, the election is over. We have a President in the White House; a few new faces joining the familiar faces in leadership at the state levels; a few racist faces rearing their ugly heads at all levels (party loyalty is one thing, deep-seated hatred and racism are another); and a Savior who is still on the throne and Lord over all.
While some of us are glad the election is over, others were so consumed by it that they don't know what to do with themselves now that there are no more rallies to attend, phone calls to make, or yard signs to post. Here's a thought. What would our country look like if we directed the passion we felt for or against the Presidential candidates toward the campaign that really matters most? What would our country be like if those of us who bear the title of Christians expressed our allegiance by putting our financial and emotional resources toward prominently displaying the Word of God throughout our communities like the campaign signs that were sprawled across every open space?
It would look like The Campaign 4 Jesus Foundation, a non-profit organization established to place scripture and scripture-based messages on buses, bus stops, metro trains, billboards and everywhere else ad space is available. The intent is to allow God's Word to be a light in our city in a time when so many are hurting, spiritually malnourished, and in need of a life-changing Word. God's Word is sharper than any two-edged sword and has the power to cut through even the hardest of hearts and to soothe any sin-sick soul.
Please take a moment to view another sneak peak of The First Lady's SHHOW! which features my interview with Carol Harris, founder of the Campaign 4 Jesus Foundation. The vision God has given her is so clear and so direct that I pray you will be led to cast your ballot and your support for the Campaign 4 Jesus....
