Unfortunately the result is a clear representation of the way America is going.

It's been helpful to put my thoughts into words. <BR/><BR/>That we elected a man with such a liberal perspective speaks of the condition of our country. <BR/><BR/>As well as encouraging Scriptures that I shared in my blog post for us to cling to and believe in, I keep thinking of the song "Because He Lives" by Bill and Gloria Gaither. "Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Because He lives, all fear is gone...Because I know Who holds the future, my life is worth the living just because He lives."Mary Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03129793790973176351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31229378.post-27521102550091748182008-11-06T02:39:00.000-06:002008-11-06T02:39:00.000-06:00Amen, Amen and Amen Arlene!!Great post!Amen, Amen and Amen Arlene!!<BR/>Great post!Tori Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859488167015452608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31229378.post-59965904029331825372008-11-05T16:00:00.000-06:002008-11-05T16:00:00.000-06:00I totally agree with you...it is scary to think ab...I totally agree with you...it is scary to think about Obama being our next president!

We hoped it would go the other way too. For me it was never a race issue, it was about whose ideals lined up the closest with my own.<BR/><BR/>I learned awhile back that Obama is not just pro-choice. As if that's not bad enough, he actually supports killing babies who are born alive during botched abortion procedures. I wonder how many people who voted for him actually knew this?<BR/><BR/>I know there is an alluring picture being painted today of a country making history, but I see something different. I believe the Lord is allowing this because of how far we've gone from Him as a nation. Like you said though, I can rest knowing He is in control and that no matter who's president His promise remains the same.Samanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08915855734482595293noreply@blogger.com
