Although I do not agree with everything that John Piper has to say in this video, specifically with his assertion that we should not get “so worked up” if our opponent is elected into office, it should serve as an important reminder to all followers of Christ that the entire cosmos is under God’s jurisdiction. Besides, I don’t know about you, but I am unexcited about any of the several candidates running for president of the U.S.A. Each and every one of them appears to be fueled by avarice and pride. I wonder how many minutes per day each aspirant stands in front of a mirror marveling at his or her own complexion and speaking skills. I would also like to know how many corrupt individuals are going to commit suicide after their respective nominee does not get chosen for the presidency and their wealth crumbles; or, how many unscrupulous persons are going to be living the high life after their candidate does in fact get selected.

Fountain Valley
Fountain of fornication. Work day ends at six o'clock. A man trades his silky black slacks for denim jeans. A woman kicks off her high heels for comfort. Cute little toes sink into the carpet of an SLR Roadster. Two quick phone calls create another long work night. Madeline and Barry are waiting in their pajamas for daddy to come home. Not today, and not next Wednesday either. Go to sleep now you two. Robert and his dad eat another microwave fare alone. Mom is not home to cook the chicken. The bird sits idly in the freezer collecting a mighty odor. Stench of food and stench of lies. Here's to sleeping alone dad! The sound of a reality show blares throughout an abandoned house. Chad and Tara are calling it quits. Feed the flesh at a Hollywood club. Bubble pits and girly drinks make for a fun night. Live life with no regrets!
Fountain of greed. Another million dollar house in foreclosure. A young couple couldn't afford the payments. Shouldn't have bought that Hummer darling. Try fitting that yellow behemoth in parking spot #34. Girl just came home with a bagful of clothes. Times aren't that tough are they? Are they really? Cut up another platinum. Order a new one. A $1,000 credit limit shall do for now. Dress up in sexy spandex. Curves here we come. Reward: Jamba Juice and a bakery treat. Place Dolce & Gabbana's on top of head. It's night time. Protect the forehead from moon radiation. Living in the I.E. ain't so bad for now. Boy is trying to get promoted at insurance agency. Nice condominium in the OC went down in value. Price: $3,000 a month. Trash included. Nice pool to boot. Visit Saddleback Church for inspiration and a clear conscience.
Fountain of vanity. Young dolls walk around with Pomeranian puppies. Surgeons did well. From B to C to double D, fight, fight, fight. Old dolls given new life. Wrinkles disappear for another seven months. Puffy lips and no more big hips. Bags under eyes become bright new lies. Spider web veins vanish with the sweep of a laser. Contribute to the economy while benefiting yourself! Doctor's have got to eat. New pills change chemicals in the brain. No more sad days. Happy, happy, happy, all of the time! Counteract that side effect with another dose of fluoxetine. She wants to be her and her wants to be she. Jealousy and rage masked by a waxy smile and cute hello. Conversing with dolls is hard. Hello. Goodbye. Pull my string again.
