Gentle correction and a blog that warms my heart.

So today I'm really struggling with the election. I came to work and the gang immediately starts reading articles that showcase the continued ridiculousness of liberals. I couldn't take it any more. Hopelessness begins to set in. I was already having a hard time coping with the possibility of Obama as my next Commander in Chief. So I determined in my mind that if Obama wins I'm taking November 5th off from work so I can stay in bed, cry a little, pray a lot, and come to work on the 6th ready to fight the good fight.

Then I started remembering how God's word says He ordains the leaders who are set in power. I pray "God, please make me okay with whatever you decide in 2 weeks." I DO trust God. I know He will use the people to choose a leader who will then be used to carry out God's work on this earth. Knowing this still didn't calm the nausea that rises in my stomach when I hear Obama supporters spouting off their uninformed reasons for choosing that horse's ass. I have to ask myself, DO I really trust God? Is it okay to know one thing and still not be happy about it? I don't know. So I continue to pray that GOD'S plan for this earth and this country would always take precedence in my heart over my own plan.

Then I stumble onto this blog. I found it through Copious Dissent. It looked like an advertisement for a movie or something. When I clicked on it, I just knew that God lead me here to help me refocus on what in this world is truly important: LIFE. Then I read more of the blog to learn this girl Wendy is a Christ follower. I think I will be frequenting this blog.

Lord, you are so loving and merciful. Thank you for not responding to my fears and anxiety with anger. Thank you for gently placing my feet back on the Rock. Thank you thank you thank you thank you.
