My suggestion, don’t think about it and pray. The whining sounds a lot like when Hillary lost. It’s all in God’s hands. The end point will be Jan21st,2021. God is in control, thy will be done.

You are correct - it is the will of God. Like I said - I have read the Bible. It was the will of God that Israel was crushed and its people were enslaved. I believe that God did place President Trump in the White House. He also placed Obama in the White House. Nothing happens without God's will. There is a plan. I may not like the course of the plan, but prayer and surrendering to God's will is what I have to do. I just have a hard time doing that.

Thank you for your words of encouragement.

What I am about to say may not go over well on Free Republic, kinda pissed my sister off when I said it to her.

But here goes: God does not give two $hits about this election, this country or so called social issues. Those are all constructs created by man not God. This country could fail, break up into city or nation states and God will have no hand in it. Man built it, man destroyed it. Same old story of love and glory that has played out for thousands upon thousands of years. God is concerned for man's soul. Our cities and societies are meaningless to God. “Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's”. Clearly implies somethings are of God some of man. Politics, government and societies belong to Caesar not God. We are practicing a form of anthropomorphize when we believe that man made constructs that concern us are also of concern to God.

Go about your lives. God gave us a rule and guide to faith, use it. Prayer is a wonderful thing, but it is wasted on man made things, especially our politics. But keep your powder dry, keep your guns oiled and sighted in. Because God also gave us charge to protect those we love. Sorry just my opinion and I am sure it conflicts with many others.
