Well by now everyone knows that Obama was elected as our country's 44th President. He is scheduled to take office on January 20, 2009.
The decision was made and its final(at least until 2012). He was elected, as he won the popular vote and the electoral votes. He is the man that 63,484,527 Americans wanted to see put into office. For the other 56,132,935 of us that voted for McCain, there's nothing we can do now, except pray. I believe that everything happens for a reason. There is a reason for this, even if some of us don't understand what that reason is just yet.
Regardless of what your political status is (R or D), please pray for Obama and for our country. I hope and pray that Obama will lead this country in the direction that it needs to go and that good will come out of his time in office.
I hope there will be positives come out of this and I hope that we, as Americans, will stand up and support our leader, regardless of who we voted for. If we tear our leader down, what does that say for us? And what good does that do for our country?
I encourage everyone to pray for our country, our leaders and for ourselves. Pray that our country will prosper and that things will get better, pray for wisdom for our leaders and pray that we, as citizens, can provide for our families and that we can continue to vote and contribute our opinions to the issues in our country.
Remember, God is in control and he works in mysterious ways. Prayers work wonders.

I agree. And I would add to that, "Pray that our country turns back to righteousness."
