28 We know that God works all things together for good for the ones who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose.
29 We know this because God knew them in advance, and he decided in advance that they would be conformed to the image of his Son. That way his Son would be the first of many brothers and sisters.
30 Those who God decided in advance would be conformed to his Son, he also called. Those whom he called, he also made righteous. Those whom he made righteous, he also glorified.
Romans 8:28-30 CEB

Just reminding myself of this on election day, in case those I want to win don’t. Or do. He does all things well, per Mark 7:37. And this place, after all is said and done, isn’t our real home. May each day bring us all closer to conforming to the image of Jesus. Then we can truly be the light of the world and the salt of the earth.
