Divisions in Our Country

I wonder where our country is as we approach the National Election next Tuesday. There is so much hate and division within our country right now. It doesn't matter whether or not you are voting for Obama or McCain because it looks as if our country will still be divided even after the election. The book of Ephesians says we are to be one...Faith, Baptism, Community. One...I think the most important issue in this election season is how we can be one. I imagine as God looks down on the earth right now that God is not happy with how God's people are treating each other; so much for loving your neighbor as yourself. My hope and prayer for our nation is to focus on loving each other with the same intensity as we despise others during this election season. God is good...all the time. Amen.
