First Day of Prayer for Barack

I was going to call it " First Day of Prayer for Obama" but I detest that name.  "Barack" means "blessings" and I can live with that.

I signed up for the 77 Days of Prayer, which is for the 77 days between the election and the inauguration.  This first day focuses on God's sovereignty.  This is something I needed to hear.

We put our trust in You to use the President-Elect—and every person
chosen yesterday—to serve Your great and high purposes for our nation.
I trust in God, and so I will trust him with this election.  I have to believe that this is the man God wants elected, or else I believe that 51% of the American voters thwarted the will of God.

Which do you believe?  Romans 8 says that God uses everything for the good of those who love him.  This is something to be grateful for:  I believe that Barack will be a blessing for the world in God's hands.

I'm human, and I don't see how on earth this is possible.  But what is impossible on earth is possible in heaven.
