Congrats, I know you have been waiting for this day!
Just want to let you know that when you hear conservatives freaking out about Obama, I'm not one of them.
I believe he will make a fine president and surprise many. I really appreciated his speech last night and viewed it as very humbled in respect to the magnitude of his accomplishments. I hope his humility rubs off on others who would otherwise be prone to boast about the win.
As for my Republican friends, I believe it is a great thing for us. A wake up call for those who live in glass houses and often like to throw stones. My hope is that this experience gives us a dose of humility and causes us to refocus on what is good for the people of this country as supposed to ourselves. To focus on love and compassion as supposed to righteousness and judgment.
I hope and pray that Obama proves every doubter wrong. For those on the extreme religious right, the Bible says that God will use the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. Well, there is a lot of people who thought they were wise yesterday and are confounded today.
For those on the left I hope and pray that humility and love will reign in the minds as I'm reminded of how destructive pride can be.
This is a great moment for our great nation! God is sovereign and places all governing authority over us. If we trust him, them we have nothing to worry about and everything to be excited about!
Praise be to God!
