No matter your political views- this is a huge day in the history of our country. Today an African American man by the name of Barack Obama will step into office as the President of the United States of America.

It is a beautiful thing. To see how far our country has come since the days of slavery, separation in society, separate schools, dining facilities, etc. It was cast system I am happy to say is being broken day each day we breathe in and out.

I could really care less where you stand politically. I'm not a politician. I'm a pastor. I'm not here to set laws and policies. I'm here to spread God's love and obey Him. So today, I will obey Him by:

  • Praying for the Obama Family
  • Praying for the Biden Family
  • Praying for all the cabinet leaders and their families
  • Praying for our government that they will follow God's leading
  • Praying for our country to recognize God and His role in our daily lives
If you call yourself a Christ-follower, I pray you will put any feelings you might have about these men, their views, their policies aside, and pray for them with me.

    Agreed. But that's easy for me to say, I love the guy. It was harder for me to do those things with W.
