Today is Inaguration Day where we are swearing in our new President of the United States, Barack Huessein Obama. Significance? Not just the 'changing of the guard', but history in the making. He will be our first African American President - with the middle name Huessein? Why is that a little scary to me?
Anyways, I have always prayed for our president of the country - but even more so now; not because he's black, not because he's Democrat and not because his middle name is Huessein, but because more than ever, our nation needs to be led with divine intervention. Somehow, we need our political leaders to feel the promptings and direction of the spirit guiding them - some sense of 'higher' direction -and even the NEED to HAVE a higher influence directing them. That they can't and shouldn't do this 'on their own'.
So, pray for our president. There are others that I would say to pray for too, but I truly believe 'they' are beyond hope. Hopefully Obama knows there is a God and that he needs HIS help. Hopefully Obama loves his family enough that he will remain faithful and devoted to them. Hopefully Obama loves this country enough that he will think of IT before he thinks of wanting to 'make everyone else happy.' Hopefully, we will survive these next four years as a counrty without too many cuts, bruises and broken bones.
Survival mode : bent knees, bowed head and pleading heart.
