Ahh, Kathy. How absolutely beautiful and appropriate. I saw your post yesterday and I went to the blog link, never getting back here to comment.
What a time in our country. What a needed time to pray. I never was interested in politics in times past, but my love and concern for my country has caused me to think about it more and I'm searching in my heart as to what more I could be doing on my blogs and Facebook. I want to avoid arguments, but feel there is much that needs to be said.
Btw, here is a link to a blog that has been most helpful to me. I was surprised to find out that this blog actually started in Feb. of 2007, before it was ever settled who the candidates would be:

Maxine, thank you for your wise words. I think this is a vital year to pray, too. And thanks for the blog. I didn't know about that one and I'll be watching it, too.
Kathy,
I am so glad you are doing this. It has been on my heart to pray for them a lot lately. I will remember this Psalm in doing that. Thanks so much for sharing.
Much love,
Angela
