I rarely get political on this blog.....because that's not what this blog is all about. But I live in Ohio and today I will be voting! It's a BIG day here in Ohio. I hope that you are a voter who votes, whomever you vote for. I feel very blessed that I can vote....and humbled to pray and trust for the outcome.....whatever it may be....I trust a great and mighty God who really is in charge of it all. I never forget that....even when my candidates don't win. He knows what He is doing. Here's some great thoughts from Nancy Leigh DeMoss :
Pray for America
