Election Day thoughts ...

So today's election day here in Canada. I plan to vote tonight and look forward to seeing the results come in on TV later.

I offer this quote (which I heard on CBC News last night as mentioned by Pinball Clemmons) and hope that whoever forms the next government takes it to heart.

"Power without love is reckless and abusive. Love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of jusitice. Justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love." Martin Luther King.

Great quote eh? It reminds me of that great verse Micah 6:8 "And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."
