Presidential Election

First of all, I would like to say thank you God for placing me in a nation where I have the right, privilege and the responsibility to choose my own leaders in government.
Next, I would like to thank and commend all of those who went out and voted in this election.
Lastly, I would like to thank President-elect Obama for answering God's call to him to be a leader in a most unsettled time in our history as a nation. We are struggling in our economy, we are at war throughout the world and many believe the outlook to be dim. I think we have been given the tools to correct our downward spiral. We need now to pull those tools out of the work bench, dust them off and get to work rebuilding what we have so devastated in our clumsiness.
Now, I would like to ask God to lay His hands on all of us. I would petition Him to guide us, to hold us up, to assist us and to shower us with His love and blessings. Remember, WE the people, all of us have a new president. Not just the people who like Obama, not just the people who supported his campaign and not just those who voted for him. President-elect Obama is the leader of our whole nation. Let us support him and allow him to do the job we have hired him to do. When he does things we don't like, let's rebuke him with our voices not violence. Let's give him a warm welcome and assist him in being a success. Because when our president is successful, we as a nation become stronger.
Thank you for your support.
