So you admit that President Bush's leading the liberation of Iraq was within God's Sovereign will.

But God's plans tend to end out very different from how we envisioned them.

Anyone who's been a Christian for fifty years (as I have), and has seen God at work in matters of nation, family, Church and self over and over again, doesn't ever presume to know what God's will is ahead of time. That's why we pray, and why we are in such deep prayer for America and her leaders right now.

We just trust in Him and know that in His Sovereignty ALL events will turn out for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.

Now, unless this conversation returns to the support of our troops and their mission in Iraq as is the topic of this thread, I think we have taken enough time (or hijacked enough of the thread), and this conversation should end.

Knowing that you do not support the mission, and that you don't agree with my son, who spent fifteen months in Iraq, that the Iraqis are a people who deserve to be free in spite of the culture and false religion they have been raised with, we don't agree on much of anything here.

An end of this entire discussion between us is best.
