Grace not grit

Whatever your political proclivities, these words from J.D. Hatfield are helpful for keeping perspective on politics, meaning, and discipleship:

Rallying behind some political movement in the guise of some humanistic spirituality that says, “yes we can”? We need to realize that God says no we can’t; but that doesn’t leave us without hope; it turns us to the only real hope. Can we save the world, can we save our children, can we save our own souls – no we can’t. But can God save the world, can God save our children, can God save our souls – yes He can!

Amen.
