Headlines in newspapers across the country today are once again announcing the shutdown of the government of what is arguably the most powerful nation on Earth. USA Today takes it one step further by asking, "Can the government be saved?".
I'm not going to get into a political discussion, because there are ideological differences between parties and individuals. That's fine. What's not OK is when these adults who accepted the responsibility of guiding our country start to act like 5-year old children. Our lawmakers (as well as a good portion of our society) have lost the ability to converse in a civil manner, respect each other's differences, and work towards a solution that benefits our nation.
I posted a scripture verse this morning on Facebook that one would think was written for today. Titus 3:14 (NLT) says, "Our people must learn to do good by meeting the urgent needs of others; then they will not be unproductive." 'Nuff said.
