Yesterday I received one of those mass e-mail forwards from a former friend wanting me to go vote in an online poll to show my support for keeping the phrase "In God We Trust" on America's money to show the news organization sponsoring the poll how many Christians there really were in America. This e-mail made me ask several questions.
Does God even care about an online poll? Does he care more about what words we print on our money or does he care about the condition of our hearts? Is he honored more by having the phrase "In God We Trust" on our money or when we trust God with our money - and with our words, or our actions, our futures, and our lives? Are Christians supposed to encourage each other to vote in polls to puff ourselves up, or is the mark of a Christian the encouragement of others to live a more Christ-focused life?
