Which Direction?

“The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left.”—Ecclesiastes 10:2.

Now you know how to vote in the upcoming election.

All right, I know that the Scripture verse quoted above was written long before the United States developed its current left/right political spectrum. However, we do have some choices to make on moral (not “social”) issues that reflect either the wisdom or the foolishness of the human heart.

If you look to the left, you will see those who claim we should proceed down the path that offers abortion on demand, a rejection of God’s definition of marriage and restrictions on religious freedoms. How foolish!

However, if you look to the right, you will find people who defend human life in the womb, uphold the sanctity of marriage and want everyone to be able to express their faith in God freely. This would obviously be a wise path to take.

Billy Graham has taken out full-page ads in USA Today, reminding us of the serious nature of the election this year. He urges us to vote correctly on matters that are directly related to godliness and righteousness.

I, too, urge you to vote for godly men and women who will make decisions that will help our nation get on the right path. Don’t be foolish. Show a heart of wisdom when you vote in this election.
