I want this country to eventually get to the point where the election of any AMERICAN (black, white, gay, Hispanic, Muslim) will be commonplace and uneventful.

Whether obama is the president I wanted in office or not, I believe God calls us to support him in prayer. Whether I agree with his policies or not, I believe I am called to pray for wisdom and direction for him. And so today, I get on my knees and pray for the future of our nation and for Obama. I do not pray fearfully but with excitement. I'm excited to see how God uses His people in this time, and I'm excited to see how God takes what the devil intended for bad and makes it good. <BR/><BR/>God bless America. The Land of the Free. <BR/>(Where I can write, "I didn't vote for him," and I won't get shot for it. :)Brett Elizabeth Spore @theworldiseehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15806720377840115039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21596966.post-71568588429350140702008-11-08T12:10:00.000-05:002008-11-08T12:10:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Brett Elizabeth Spore @theworldiseehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15806720377840115039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21596966.post-10114229148844367242008-11-07T10:13:00.000-05:002008-11-07T10:13:00.000-05:00What a great post and a nice letter.

I think it's great when any young person can rise up out of whatever circumstances he or she may find his/herself in and make the most of it with nothing but hard work. This is the American Dream alright. And big government programs didn't get Obama where he is. Hard work and diligence did. I have a feeling laziness will be rewarded more and more in the coming years if his socialist programs are implemented, though. <BR/><BR/>Again, great post.
