Thought of the Day !!

First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for everyone, for kings and all who are in high positions, so that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and dignity. This is right and is acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
                                            1 Timothy 2:1-4 (NRSV)

As we awake today our president is still Pres. Obama. Many people are celebrating this fact. Many people voted for Pres. Obama. On the other hand, in this divided nation of ours, many people were upset today. There are those who claim the world is coming to an end. There are also those who believe a bright new day has arrived. To be quite honest though the same God that was in charge yesterday is in charge today. And in His Word we are told what to do. On this day let us think about this scripture. Whether we are happy or sad let us pray. May we pray for our leaders in love, and may we ask for God to guide them and to share his grace with them when they fail.

Just remember that at the end of the day it is not the president who has complete authority over this nation. It is our great God through the power of His Holy Spirit.

Have a blessed day today.

In the Love of Christ,
