Greetings,
Paul’s prayer for the Ephesians is always appropriate. Enjoy!
“For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rootedand established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.”

Here are some of my post-election thoughts about the midterm elections.
What does God have to say about this?
#BibleVerse #Daniel2:20 #worry #hope
Polls Can Be Wrong. Midterm Headwinds Are Real. 2028 Is a Different Election.
Polls and betting markets have several Republican Senate seats looking vulnerable today. The numbers put Susan Collins at roughly a 70-75% chance of losing in Maine, Mike Rogers around 75-80% in Michigan, Dan Sullivan near 70% in Alaska, Roger Marshall in the mid-60s in Kansas, and Ken Paxton around 70% in Texas.
These are just odds. Polls and markets get races wrong—sometimes badly.
Collins herself overcame a clear polling deficit in 2020. We’ll know the real results soon enough.
The larger pattern is harder to ignore. Midterms are usually a referendum on the party in power. Since 1946, the president’s party has lost House seats in 18 of 20 midterms, averaging roughly 26 seats. Senate losses are less automatic but still common (13 of those 20 cycles). Voters treat the midterms as a chance to send a message. That headwind is real.
It does not, however, decide the next presidential election. The correlation ...
This verse keeps coming back to me whenever people act like their personal sense of morality, justice, or goodness somehow outranks God’s.
Their thoughts are higher than the Creator’s?
That idea is both arrogant and absurd. It leaves me somewhere between an eye-roll and genuine sadness.
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
Isaiah 55:8–9 (NIV)
