Romans 13:1

Romans 13:1-Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established.


God, I pray your blessings on Barack Obama and his family. I pray that you anoint them and protect them. Surround them with your love and light. Thank you, God, that we live in a country where we are free to worship you. Thank you for the freedom to vote and the freedom to disagree with love.

***you don't have to approve the comment...politics are a sticky subject and i understand that***
but i just wanted to say...that your post was the most intelligent and thoughtful political dissonance post i have read. Thank you for being respectful to the process, our President Elect--Barack Obama--and to all of us who disagree, respectfully, with the conservative right. Sadly, there are a lot of Americans who have lost the idea of hope and are fearful based on ignorance and outright lies...we should pray for our country and for their souls to. TGIalmostF!
