Election Day

"Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and might are His.  And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding."  Daniel 2:20-21

Election day if finally here!  No more ads, no more polls, no more debates, no more parsing every sentence from the candidates, and no one knows who will win today!  Not matter which candidate you might be pulling for it has been a roller coaster ride the last couple of months.  We have been bombarded by conservative and liberal pundits spewing out trends and numbers trying to predict the election outcome.  And finally today it will be answered....we hope.

Though we don't know the results of the election yet, I have already set in my mind what I will do tomorrow.  No matter who wins I will get up for my early morning run.  While on my run I will praise the One and only King of kings and Lord of lords, who is seated upon His eternal throne, sovereign and powerful.
Isn't is wonderful that our hope does not rest in the outcome of elections or the government of man.  Our hope is in our Lord Jesus, and all of history is moving toward, and lining up for His glorious return.  Let's all find peace knowing that however the election turns out, it will fit perfectly in the sovereign plans of our gracious God.
