Election 2020

I've thought about this day for a while now.
How would I react?
If my man won, would I gloat?
If he lost would I pout, throw a tantrum?
I knew I would not loot and burn and demonstrate,
that isn't in me,
but would I behave just as badly in my spirit?
Today I know.

I have prayed diligently for our nation in the last weeks and months.
I have prayed diligently for our president.
Today, I will continue to do so.
You see, we arrogantly believe we have placed in power the man we want.
We have not.
God has placed in power the man HE wants there!
For HIS purpose!
I don't understand, but I don't have to.
I don't even agree, but I don't have to.
God has many, many times allowed and caused things
with which I don't agree.
I haven't always seen the light,
but often, in retrospect, I can see His purpose and rejoice!
 
Today, I trust Him!
Today, I pray for our nation,
for our president,
and for our president-elect.
May God bless these men and our nation!
