My thoughts on the election

After last night's election I had a very clear thought. I didn't "vote for change" yesterday because the government isn't in charge of changing my life, I am. My success in life is not dependent on who is in the White House. God has given me my family to provide for and that doesn't change no matter who our president is or whether I live in a pro-abortion or pro-life state (apparently I live in a pro-abortion state). So my guy didn't win and ideas I believe in got defeated. I will still wake up tomorrow and use the freedom others have fought for me to have to succeed no matter who's running this country. Now if only I could find a way to convince people that an unborn baby becomes a grown up if you give them a chance. Guess that's too hard for people to understand.

I hear you, brother. God is still on His throne, and HE reigns, even if most of the country seems to believe that Obama has come to 'save' them. We (myself, Steve and the kids) are very sad that 11 was defeated. I will never understand how we can throw away human life and expect blessings in return. Ugh.
