What's the Gameplan Now?

All right, enough! I spent my maximum of 5 minutes reading political statuses on Facebook.


1. Complaining won't help
2. God is still here


So Obama may win this election. What are we going to do now?

Are we going to give up?
Are we going to sit down and pout?

I hope not...

Could we try praying, instead of complaining? I know a ton of you hate Obama(care), but could we try praying for wisdom for him instead of praying for hindrance? How much will this country benefit if all we do is pray that Obama will be stopped in what he is trying to do? Why don't we pray that God will begin to work in his life, and through that adjust his philosophy? Why don't we stop praying negative and start praying positive?

So our candidate didn't win. This too shall pass - this is a country, it is not eternal. Focus on what matters infinitely. People matter infinitely.

We do what we can with what we are given. If we are given a conservative president, we pray for him; if we are given a liberal president, we pray for him. It is that simple. I care for this country, and I care even more for its people, but this country will fall eventually. Whether when Christ returns or when the economy collapses and we are invaded, it will fall.

BUT, God remains in control. All we can do is trust Him and communicate with Him. Bigger powers than us are on the move here, but we have a direct connection to the biggest Power. Why don't we try inviting Him in to our troubles? Not to get what we want, but to get what He wants.

I understand people's concern about politics, and I myself got out and voted today because I care about our country, but as a Christian, I align myself not under a democracy, but under a theocracy, where God is placed in control of my life, and assumed and trusted to be in control of everything else as well.

Above all, my prayer is that His will be done.
