We are reminded that as followers of Christ, our ultimate goal should be to love like Jesus, even amidst the divisiveness and challenges of an election year. While we may hold different political views, our shared faith in Christ should unite us and shape our interactions with others. By recognizing that both anger and fear are often used as political tools, we can instead choose to anchor ourselves in the confidence and peace that comes from trusting in God's sovereignty. We are encouraged to stay aware of how our politics are shaping us spiritually and actively seek to be formed in the image of Christ, using our political involvement as a means to demonstrate His love to the world.
"For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love and self-discipline." 2 Timothy 1:7
