When it feels too much, too little, too exhausting, too unknown... Remember that the Artist of all creation, the Developer of your heart, sits on the throne, fulfilling His plan. No one will ever be without Hope as long as they love Him completely (-Kris)
There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach. (The Return of the King - JRR Tolkien)

Q: What are your thoughts about voting?
A: I think it’s a private issue best decided between an individual and the Lord.
If you admire someone and they believe you need to vote, what will you do? If you admire someone else and they believe you should not vote, what will you do?
We’re going to run into a problem if we don’t have godly reasons for why we do or do not do something. Hopefully, our understandings and conclusions are based on what God is telling us to do. We must not be swayed from our walk with the Lord because of someone else’s opinion about voting.
If we are faithfully walking in obedience to what He is telling us to do then we do not owe anyone an explanation. We do not need to qualify, explain or excuse our decision. If we’re faithfully walking the path He set before us, we will be comfortable with the path we’re on and not worry about what He calls others to do.
Is it possible 2024 will not be what we expect? Are you prepared for various scenarios/possible outcomes? Will we have an election in the fall? Will it be postponed? Or, as Trump has been saying as of late, will there be “a pause?”
Pray, my friend. I will be praying for my friends, too. That they clearly hear God’s instructions and that they have the strength and courage to follow through.

Q: This channel ________ is saying ________, but this channel ________ is saying ________. I like both of these channels so I am confused about who I should listen to…
A: What is the Holy Spirit telling you when you pray about it?
We know from Paul’s letters that conflicts among Believers has been around for thousands of years. He tells us not to bicker over issues that do not matter in the grand scheme of life, if you will. He doesn’t tell us we must agree on everything. But, he does tell us we need to work it out so we can live peacefully together. Most importantly, he stresses that we should not be a stumbling block in someone’s spiritual journey.
If a person or a channel insists that we agree with every one of their personal beliefs and opinions, that should raise red flags for us. If a person or channel consistently mocks, stirs strife or wants to be the magistrate of our life, we should question their intent. Someone else’s belief that they are right does not automatically mean that we are wrong.
Your question was asked about the same time as the question regarding voting, and I think part of the answer above applies here quite well.
Our understandings and conclusions should be based on what God is telling us to do. Otherwise, if we can be swayed by others’ opinions we will get pushed off the path of following His perfect will for our lives.
We can prayerfully consider other points of views and understand different perspectives while asking the Lord to show us His truth, and we can do so without discord. I do not believe that we must agree with others’ opinions on every single thing in life. That just doesn’t make any sense! We have different temperaments, personalities, tastes, desires, goals.
We are to speak God’s truth in His kind of love. So ask the Holy Spirit: is this person/channel lovingly speaking God’s truth; or are they presenting their own opinions as God’s truth?
God will not cause confusion, fear and guilt among His children. He is clear, precise and reliable. The Holy Spirit guides, correcting as needed.
We can live confidently and comfortably with our decisions when we seek His will for us.
