Patriotism and Dedication

by PamFord Davis  
10/29/2024 / Devotionals

Have you voted yet? Early voting is recommended by many but some registered voters prefer to wait till Election Day. I know how busy precinct polling places can be on that day. I voted early at our Louisiana parish court house. My memory takes me back to childhood and going along with Mom and Dad to the Kirkville, New York fire station.

It was voting day.

My next recollections go back to early years as a wife. Husband, Norm was opinionated and informed on political parties, platforms and candidates. We registered to vote and switched parties when platforms shifted from conservative Judeo-Christian standards. Once, we even changed parties because state leaders didn’t play by the rules.

Vote on the day of your choice for the candidates of your choice. Vote and pray. Pray for your community; your state and nation. Our future is at stake. None should take this election lightly. I wonder how much participation there will be by first time voters and minority groups. I’m pretty sure senior citizen voting will be high.

I was a city poll worker when living in Florida. Speaking from experience, senior citizens vote. Making their way to the voting place does not come easy to all. Many need to find transportation. The disabled enter their precinct slowly with canes, walkers or wheel chairs. I salute them and hope that the younger generation will follow the elder’s example of patriotism and dedication.

God said, “if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayer that is made in this place (2 Chronicles 7:14-15 ESV).”
