28 - Political Freedom

'Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.' (Romans 13:1)

Although we don't always agree with the changes our government makes - after all, they're not Christians - and although some reading this might not have voted for the government presently in power, we can still be thankful for them.

Thankful we live in a democracy. 

Thankful we have the vote. 

Thankful those ruling over us have been put there by God.

And thankful they are submissive to God, whether they realise it or not. 

In this country, we don't face political persecution. We are allowed the freedom to worship than many other countries are denied. 

May we never take that lightly.
