As I went to bed that night Id imagine that I felt the same way President Obama and Governor Romney went to bed. Both feeling capable and believing they were the man for the job, yet leaving the decision in someone elses hands! The anticipation of potentially being leader they believed they can be or failing to convince the other party!
Only I was up for a position as a manager in a department of about 50, these men campaigned long to be the President of the United States a task of carrying the burden of our country. In the end the reality is this. We have two men who woke up this morning different! One celebrating that many felt confident in him to lead our country. The other feeling defeated after a long campaign of money spent, time away from family and not being good enough to be our leader.
I know that NO one is good enough to lead our country. Our world is in turmoil on so many levels, there is war, financial crisis, disasters of great proportion, violence that we have never seen before! But the only person that is able and capable is the Lord. As a leader I have made many mistakes, there will be no president that will be exempt from that because we all know that man is not perfect.
Because God is ruler of my life, I know that he promotes and demotes, there is nothing that happens to us that He does not allow. For such a time, He has allowed and appointed Mr. Obama to be a leader in our country and so now we pray. I know God well enough to know He never makes a mistake, never has in my life and so I trust in Him. We pray President Obama, his wife and his children who have a great task ahead of them. Mrs Obama is still a wife that needs strength to lift her husbands hands, which she can by the way with those guns she has! The obama girls who looks at their daddy without fault, who don't live normal childhoods. I would imagine there are great sacrafices to be made in any family that accepts to be the first family. So for all the reasons and for the state of our country we pray!
Today is my birthday and I thank the Lord for another day of service to Him! May I not waste it on things that don't matter! Thank you all for being my friends, readers and support! You truly bless my heart!
"This is the day the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it!" Psalm 118:24
