Fouth of July

Today's reading was from second Kings and told the story of the first great exile in the life of our Jewish brothers and sisters. I couldn't help but think about how dangerous it is to be arrogant with God's relationship to a nation. Nations come and go even if God sheds grace on them. Christianity will be with us forever and we can't become wrapped in a nation.
