These are two of many thoughts that keep running through my mind this morning: "Woe to you, America" and "Father, forgive them. They know not what they do."
What I just don't get is those who claim to follow Christ "putting aside" their religion to give power to this man who thinks it is okay to slaughter unborn children. They allowed charisma and money to master their decision.
Sunday, in the church parking lot, I saw a car with 2 stickers. One said, "Vote Yes on 2" and the other "Obama". Are you kidding me?
What kind of faith is that, that you can set it aside like a jacket only to put it back on when it suits you? It's unbelievable to me.
Now, does this mean I doubt God's sovereignty in this election? Not in the least! My comfort today as I wrestle with the news I woke to this morning is that I can rest in the security of knowing it doesn't matter who is president, because God is King. He's all I need. He's all I want.
It does remind me, however, that sometimes, He gives us just what we ask for.

Amen! I could not agree with you more, Jenny!
Jenny...I saw that same exact car and thought the exact same things. Woe to our people of this land. I was actually crying uncontrollably this morning and had to get my feelings under control for the sake of my children. For the very reason you wrote about.
Jenny,
I keep reminding myself that God is Soverign and that no matter how I may feel about who is president my hope is in my Lord. He is where I put my trust and my hope. I understand your frustration but we must realize that now is when we as Christians have to come together and pray for so many that are deceived and blinded by the enemy. I hope He brings comfort to you today.
