Wow, the fact that I got to be a part of history, good history, is so exciting. I am so proud and elated that Barack Obama will be the 44th President of the United States. Just wow. During his speech last night, I teared up. Last night, whenever I thought about him winning I just kept smiling.
No matter who you voted for it is undeniable that history was made and by just his victory, the world has more hope. This is the chance to restore America as a nation of good standing with the world. There are many conservatives who are very concerned about Obama being president. Just as John McCain said last night, now we have to go back to our lives and work together. Philipians 4:6 says this "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God" (NIV). So, whether or not you think Obama is going to ruin our country, pray for him and know that God is in control and this was His will. Oh, and don't continue to call yourself a Christian and belittle people by calling them names, it's unChrist-like.
To end things off with a quote by Dwight D. Eisenhower:
"I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it."
