some thoughts..

just a post election thought. i think its great we have an african-american president to be. i do disagree with some of his campaign policies. but the fact we were able to look past color and elect a president, a leader of our country is amazing. but here is my beef with fellow friends, co-workers, people i know, and facebook statuses. ive seen and heard many people say "obama is president, i knew God existed." or "God is good cuz Obama was elected." Then are you saying if McCain won, God is not good, God is evil, or God doesn't exist? No. God is good always. Whether your candidate or the other candidate won. It doesn't matter. Don't make God or God's goodness a circumstantial matter. If things go your way, God is good. If things doesn't, God is bad. No! It angers me that people, "Christians", have that mindset. God is good all the time. No matter what. Good, bad, crappy, whatever! Everything God does, everything He created is good.  For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.1 Timothy 4:4-5 remember, God isnt good because one candidate got chosen over another. it doesnt matter whoever got elected, God is good. Its not Obama, or McCain. Its God.

You know I think it's also wrong to think that God will not use Obama ultimately for His purposes in this country... He did ask Rick Warren to do his invocation speech, and not just being wishfull thinking, he might imdirectly or directly continue to do things that lead the country consider it's faith in God. Let's pray for him.
