Well, its finally over. The nation has spoken and elected a new president. To be honest, I was not fond of either major party candidate. Yet that was not the choice we had. So this morning Barack Obama is my president. I will pray for him, honor him as president, and wish him success in being a good leader. This is my duty. If McCain would have been elected, I would say the same thing.
At the same time I realize that my hope and my dreams were never invested in any man, in any party, nor in any political system. My hope was, is, and will remain to be in Christ. While this is not the time to swoon with joy over the election, nor is it the time to despair either. Remember this nation once made it through Warren Harding and Jimmy Carter.
