America . . . No Matter What, We're still the Greatest Nation

Yesterday was truly an incredible day in our nation's history. Whether you voted for Obama or not, (and personally I'm still sulking that Palin wasn't on that inauguration stage) there was something special there that you could sense even viewing it on TV. To hear that there was no arrests with some near 2 million people in that area is commendable. Seeing senior African Americans wheeled in their wheelchairs, really made you aware of how remarkable this moment was for them. We, in this day and are, are so unfamiliar with what they have been through, but knowing not long ago blacks and whites didn't mingle, it awakes you to what they may be feeling. Wow! I can't imagine. And our children will know no other way, which is nice.

There are some major issues I completely disagree with that this president supports. We as Christians must know God is completely in control and this is the plan He has for our Nation. Our role is to up lift President Obama in pray. And God who has kept and favored our Nation, by our prayers and supplications, can turn things around as only He is able, not any single man.

As nice as I thought the media portrayed yesterday events, and of course they wouldn't have it any other way . . . I must admit watching Opera today was just a bit much. So I again try to remember why they are so happy. . . okay. Didn't watch too much, but did catch this song that was just released, and while it probably has some deeper meaning I'm not catching, like removing God or something, I think it's a beautiful song and performed with such spirit. Think of it as "This Land is Your Land" . . . :)
