The Official's Official

I am a certified political junkie. It started when I lived in DC during the race of Mayor Fenty. It’s only blossomed and flourished with the election of Obama, and now all of the political unrest has me glued to the blogs, NPR and the news channels. I get a kick out of hearing the politicos strategize, theorize, and legitimize only to come back later and retrace their steps. Plus, I believe it is important to keep track of the pulse of those who are controlling our nation.

Today is Election Day for the US, and it stands to be one of the more important elections held in recent memory. America is stumbling, our residents are angry and bewildered, and we are all looking to our elected officials to navigate us through this mess we’ve made.

I have my own personal convictions about who and what party can help remedy the situation. As a believer, however, I know the ultimate decision lies in God’s hands. No matter which party is control, or who takes the reigns as the leader of a state, God allows each and every person to take office as He sees fit.

So, today as I monitor the polls, I’ll be in constant prayer that God will guide the fingers and pens of the voting public to ensure that the right people for each job is selected. No man can save, only God. As long as we continue to keep God as the center of our Union, we cannot go wrong.

Verse of the Day: The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will. Proverbs 21:1
