There's tons to be said, but it's late and my bedtime.
Obviously today was a turning point, a historical day. As if you hadn't heard that word 100 times today. It represents a triumph of sorts and we are right to feel hopeful. President Obama and his many colleagues may be instrumental in turning around some of the downturns our country has taken. But ultimately, Obama is not our hope. After watching/reading lots of footage today, many people seem to be resting their hopes on one man. While he is a great man deserving honor and respect, obedience and cooperation--and our prayers (1 Tim. 2),--he is a man. Obama's ability--any ruler's ability--to be successful in his role, depends on his relationship and obedience to Jesus Christ, the King of Kings.
Interesting times have yet to unfold before us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus. Let us seek Him together so that our land may be healed (2 Chronicles 7:14).
