True to form, I obsessively post a blog mere hours after the first. When I find a new outlet, I must abuse it immediately. 2:30 am, and I'm thinking about the election tomorrow. I always fear change, so however thoroughly Bush has messed things up in the last few months, he's predictably stupid - and therefore preferable to either candidate. Which, sort of, my dog would be preferable to either candidate. But that's another story.
I was praying about the election today. I know who I'm voting for. But my prayers lie in a different direction. I am praying that the best man will win. Not the one I like the most or the one who goes with my values. I want the man who will do the best for America. Don't mistake me - I'm not what you'd call patriotic. I am glad to be American and all, but that's about as deep as the red, white and blue run in my veins. But I know that we're in an uncertain place right now, and we need the right leader. I am not sure in myself that McCain or Obama is that leader...but this comes down to whether I trust God.
So I put it in His hands, and let it go. In a few hours I will go down to the polls and cast my vote. Then I will sit back and relax in the knowledge that God heard me and all things will work together for the best.
