The Revelation of Our War President

This is a sad day for America.
The man so many of us thought would usher in a new world with new priorities ultimately shows human frailty.
His promise of change and peace succumb to pressures of the warmongers.
There can no explaining away the hope for change we bought in to.
It is a clear breach of contract.
Nothing has changed.

As our president rallies the world to war, we shake our heads in disappointment.

Perhaps this becomes an Advent reminder: there is one who does offer real peace for the world -- and churches all over the world are talking about reasons why in these days before Christmas.
Maybe this year we can pay attention.
