No worries, truly.
If you are a follower of Jesus Christ, you know that He has already won. He remains our King. His is the voice we continue to follow. His is the way we tread still. We carry on our life in Christ no matter who wins or loses.
Not a follower? No worries. One significant aspect of being created equal is that your integrity, your honesty, your generosity, your need to love others cannot be affected by another human being—unless you allow it.
Follower or not, if your guy loses, you have not lost. The essence of who we are is an inward energy that shines outward just as Truth is an outside force that illuminates inward. Let that light shine, and no one loses.
