I will stand behind Obama, because I am a proud American!

This blog may rub some of you wrong and I am sorry that you will feel that way, I am not sorry what what I wrote. On November 4, 2008 our nation witnessed history. Barrack Obama, is going to become our first black president. That is so amazing! No I did not vote for the man, and I am a little nervous about his stand on some key issues, but that doesn't mean I cannot support the man. I choose to support him in prayer! I never in my life time thought that I would ever get to witness our country elect a black president. I am proud we did! I pray he will be the best president that God can make him be. I pray that he will join and rise this nation up, and not bring us down. Prayer changes things.

So I am asking you as nicely as I can to please SHUT UP with all the mouth vomit about Obama. Most of it is not true and if you believe everything you hear about him or what he is going to do you are a fool. All of us republicans need to put on our big girl panties and deal with this situation. I am tired of the racist comments, the comments about his family, how he is going to destroy Kenya, how he is gonna do this and that. The man hasn't even walked 5 minutes in Bush' shoes and I hope when he does he will think really hard about some of the decisions he wants to make. As Christians we need to get back to basics. Romans 13:1-2 states: Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore whoever resits the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgement on themselves. The Bible is very clear as to what we should do. Here is another verse that we need to cling to in this interesting times. Romans 12:9-13 states: Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another, not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer, distributing to the the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.
As believer's be need to quiet our mouths and hearts and get on our knees and pray. Philippians 4:6-7 states: Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
As I close this I want to remind you of something we all know, but sometimes forget. God is still on the throne, He hasn't been knocked off. In the end He gets the victory! Satan has an extremely short leash and everything he destroys or seeks to destroy the Lord will build up again for His glory. No matter what color, or party our leaders are in, our God reigns forever and ever. So please I am asking all of you who truly love this wonderful country of ours stand behind our president. Cover him and his family with prayer. Do not be quick to judge. I was in that boat to, but my perspective has changed I hope yours does to! I leave you with this amazing video. I know you have heard this time and time again but really listen and see how much the Lord has done in the African American community since Dr. King made this speech! What a mighty God we serve!



I see no color, I hope you don't either! May the Lord continue to fulfill his plan for this great nation!
