Dear Friends and Family at LAOG,

Please forgive me for any expression of resentment or impatience that I may have conveyed to towards any of you regarding this election. The Lord has convicted me of being unloving in this way. Though I felt strongly about my reasons for voting as I did and though I believe the Lord has spoken through this election, I realize that, in spite of my feelings, I must 'make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace'. Further, I realize that the impact of this election has been devastating for many people. I pray that God will bring comfort and peace to their hearts.

I am praying that the Lord will clothe us all in His Love and Righteousness that Jesus Christ purchased, with His own blood, on Calvary.

Sincerely,
Jessica

Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when you were called—one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. Ephesians 4:2-6
