It’s clear that many are excited about the recent election results, while others are not. Regardless of our political leanings or religious beliefs, the one important thing we must remember is that we are all humans, created in the image of the Creator.

It makes sense that there are divergent opinions. Just look around you; nature is full of plants, animals, insects, birds, fish, etc. We eat a wide variety of foods from all over the world. Clothing styles are constantly changing, as are car models, computers, home appliances, phones and the list goes on and on. Nothing stays the same. Neither do humans. We are diverse in weight, height, eye color, hair, skin, talents, abilities, sexual orientation, beliefs, likes and dislikes. Let us accept each other for what we can contribute to society during our short journey on this planet. We are just a point in the universe. Let us not waste our precious time arguing, fighting or hating our fellow human beings. Remember, God doesn’t make mistakes.

We have forgotten Matthew 7:12, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” and Matthew 7:1, “Judge not, lest ye be judged.” » Let’s try not to judge those who are different or with whom we disagree. It’s no use.
