This morning I've been catching up with people on MySpace and a forum I visit regularly, and the main topic of conversation is tomorrow's Presidential election.
I'm sad for my young friends who are just starting out in their adult lives and are already experiencing things like losing a job because their store is closing, and trying to make enough money to buy gas, pay rent, and still be able to eat. I wish things were more certain for them.
Sometimes when we listen to the news and the commentators, it seems like there is not much hope left for our Country. A lot will depend on the results of tomorrow's election.
But, no matter who wins, keep this one thought in mind. The Lord God Almighty, the Creator of the universe, is firmly in control of all that happens. No one will be pulling a surprise on Him.
Let the following passages of Scripture give you hope and comfort.
By me kings reign, and princes decree justice. By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth. Proverbs 8:15-16
It is of the LORD’S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD. Lamentations 3:22-26
Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Matthew 18:19-20
But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19.
