Words of encouragement . . .

This morning I woke up just like I always do, thinking about the days list of things to accomplish. My second thought was, O, I wonder who won the election. I rushed down to the computer and "googled" for the answer. The answer that came back was Barack Obama.

I was saddened for a moment, I must admit. Just on the "Right to Life" issue alone, but then I looked out my window . . . the sun was still coming up and it was beautiful! Do you know why, because my God is sovereign.


The wicked plots against the just, and gnashes at him with his teeth.
The Lord laughs at him,
For He sees that his day is coming.
The wished have drawn the sword and have bent their bow,
to cast down the poor and needy,
to slay those who are of upright conduct.
Their sword shall enter their own heart,
and their bows shall be broken.
A little that a righteous man has is better than the riches of many wicked.
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken,
But
The Lord upholds the righteous.
THe Lord knows the days of the upright,
and their inheritance shall be forever.
They shall not be ashamed in the evil time,
and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
But the wicked shall perish;
and the enemies of the Lord,
Like the splendor the the meadows, shall vnish.
Into smoke they shall vanish away.
-Psalm 37:12-20

We need to continue to pray, continue to stand for Jesus, and His Word, but do not fear what is to come.
God is in control. Over history He has use good kings and evil kings for His glory. God will use Barack Obama for His glory, weather Barack likes it or not.

Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king. - 1 Peter 2:17
