    I was concerned about the title and more concerned when I read others’ comments, but after hearing what you actually said, I was relieved. I hope that no matter what happens our country can go back to a place where we are united with our fellow man and have compassion and grace for one another.

      I hate the "God is in control" rhetoric. Was God in control when millions of people were murdered by the hands of the Germans? Is God in control when children are murdered in schools because the right doesn't want to stand up the the NRA? Is God in control in Gaza, Ukraine, and when children are abused by their own parents. No, God is not in control when Man performs evil acts. It's a convenient argument that makes zero sense.

    I was not born in this country, I was born in a communist country a country that executed my 21 year old sister for the simple reason, she was trying to escape.
    And an uncle that was married with two babies, and for the simple reason of signing a petition, so he could keep a few cows and not let the state take it from him, he without a trial, was placed in prison for 30 years. So I look around and listen and see things from a different point, I was a child when God made it possible for my family to come to the most wonderful country in the world. I tell you this because evil is alive and doing well.
    And as Christian’s we need to pay attention to pray that God loving and fearing people are the people we vote for. When the USA sneezes the rest of the world catches pneumonia. I love this country. God saved my soul in this country gave me the opportunity to be free. Today I feel free again.

    Your vote needs to be a kingdom vote. Based on a biblical perspective. When one side tells you as someone yells out Jesus is Lord… you’re at the wrong Rally, that rally’s down the street. That’s all you need to know. Last night that rally down the street sang amazing grace, and was basically having a prayer meeting. When you allow God in the country, you’re going to have a different outcome in the end product. God is a just God, and there are consequences in removing God from the equation.

    Well said Kristen. I do know that The Word of God shows us that a person is to be known by the fruit that they bear. A person will spew hatred, bitterness, intolerance, meaness, profanity, etc., if that is what is in his heart. I trust in Christ at all times. I believe that Christ has revealed so much to us with this political climate that we are in, and so many have turned a blind eye. Common decency and civility will always ve the "Golden Rule" for me as a true Christian. When I see someone else treating others badly, disrespecting their humanity( which is God given), then I know that Christ is not in them. I pray for the hearts and souls of all of America.

      Im mixed on the issue abortion is wrong, but they also call having a misscarrige a medical abortion when they do an emergency d&c when the woman can't pass the fetus. There have been so many reports of women dying trying to get help a medical procedure that would save them and prevent them from going septic, but they can't get the care they need. I had a miscarriage in 2015 that baby was wanted, and I continue to mourn that loss but had i not had that procedure I wouldn't be here today and wouldn't of been able to bring my two girls into the world. If a woman has misscarried, she should have access to care to save her life.

    I’m not American but I find it strange there are only 2 parties over there. Seemingly extreme right and extreme left. There are no in-between s eg centre right, centre left. Also the economic policies are intertwined with the social ones (eg gun control, abortion, drug crisis) - ie you have to vote for a party that is anti-abortion even if you don’t agree with that but agree strongly with the financial and economic policies of that party or vice versa. It also seems that the secularity of politics in the US is diminishing. Also, voting is optional over there. It’s important to vote so it should be compulsory, even for they had an option to abstain on the voting paper.

    As others have said this was an easy choice.

However it’s so easy to fall into hate, anger and lack of mercy towards the other side in our day to day dealings with our neighbor. I want to stand for truth, not compromising, calling out evil where I see it but with the right attitude of the heart.

That is a nonnegotiable with me. Remember Jesus overturned the tables in the temple b/c the priests/people were using it for monetary gain instead of the will of God. Our country was founded on Biblical principles and so many many people have forgotten that. Yes, God is in control and we need to honor Him. We also need to speak out when we see evil blatantly being brought to us as "the norm". God will honor those who honor Him and bless those that bless Him. We are in a Spiritual warfare in this country for sure. It is our command to follow God's Word and speak out against evil in a loving way. Let those around you see Jesus in us. I pray for wisdom to show those around me the love of Christ and pray for those that persecute us. We were not promised "easy" we were promised eternal life when we follow Him.

I look at all, the issues, and who they support, not just one. The GOP votes no on almost every bill that benefits children and women. People who call themselves prolife are usually pro fetus as i don’t see anything being done to support the women during their pregnancy or after. Women are dying because doctors are too afraid to help them during a miscarriage as the procedure is the same.

    Hi Kristin, you are so sweet and I really enjoyed listening to you because ultimately, God is in control! While I do not believe that either candidate will change our lives because only God is in control, I do believe when looking at both of these candidates, it is important to look at what they stand for. Ms. Harris told a young gentleman that he was at the wrong rally when he shouted out "Jesus is King" that is enough for me in itself to show me that she does not want to have anything to do with Christians and will try to silence the Christian community. She has had numerous people coming out to support her whom have had very bad reputations with evil people and that is not because I'm judging but just because of the way they choose to live their lives and from what my bible tells me, my Lord would not want me to be around people like that. Proverbs 4: 4-15 says to stay away from the path of evil people. Do not walk where they go, turn away and pass by them. As a Christian, I can not be a democrat as I do not believe that an unborn child should be aborted and so the choice is very clear for me although I am well aware that Donald Trump is not a perfect man. I pray that our country can get back on the right track and I totally don't stress about it because I know that God is in control and the choice is completely in his hands. xo

      I agree. I find it hard to imagine a Christian would vote on the candidate ran her campaign on abortion.

      Some people aren’t Christian- or religious at all. My body. My choice. Period.

    I’ve been worried for a while now about how this election will turn out. I woke up this morning & prayed for peace and the nervousness went away. 😇I know I’ll be ok no matter what happens.

    Well said, Kristen! I prayed this morning and again in the voting booth.
    Sadly, many I know do not believe in God or practice a religion any longer. God is in control of my life and what goes on in it.

    The Bible states that we are to stand with Israel. I voted for the candidate that will do that

      I think Trump has used tarriffs before, and it works well.
