Nov. 5, 2008 - Getting away from reality

I have decided to turn to my blog today to get away from all the feelings I'm having about the turn our country has taken in the past 24 hours.  My kids can't stop talking about it, my friends are all abuzz and I'm just sad.  I don't want to speculate about what is going to come of our country in the next 4 years, I'd rather pray about it and trust that God has it under control.  My biggest fear about the new president is not of his color (I could care less if he were purple for cryin' out loud), or his socialist views, my greatest fear is that he is going to try to take God out of our country.  Now, I KNOW he could never take God out of our hearts, but I fear that he will try to remove all traces of God from our country.  People were singing Psalms that you sing about Jesus about Obama...that scares me!

So for today as every day, I will continue to rely on God and his mercy to please bless the USA and keep us in the palm of His hand, because I have a feeling we're going to need it now more than ever.

I happened upon your post and forgive me but you sound a bit depressed. I used to be a catholic as well and now am non denominational. It is very freeing to realize that you can go directly to Jesus with whatever you are feeling- no need to go through Mary or even a priest. Try it.
Hope it works in fact - I know it will. Your direct line to Jesus is waiting for YOU.
