WHITE HOUSE INSIDER: Mitt Romney’s Quiet Prayer Amidst The Sound Of Thunder

There were some real veteran campaigners backstage and I’m told they were all blown away by this crowd in Colorado. It really was like some big time rock show. Just a huge response for the governor...

...And then something very interesting happens. He moves away from the group of people just a bit. Maybe ten or fifteen feet or so. Just enough to have a little space to himself. And enough people notice that the area gets a lot more quiet, and they are trying to watch the governor without looking like they are watching the governor. They can all kind of tell something is happening right then. It was described as something very peaceful and powerful that came over that backstage area for a moment. And the governor, he lowers his head and his eyes shut tight and you could see him take a slow deep breath and then he lets it out and says quietly, but just loud enough for some to hear, “Lord, if this is your will, please help to make me worthy. Please give me the strength Lord.” And then his eyes open up, and he’s back to smiling and laughing and shaking hands and being the candidate once again.

This is going to sound silly, but I am sitting here with tears in my eyes from the gratitude and relief of maybe, possibly, having a righteous and God-fearing man back at the helm. I didn’t know how much I missed it until I read this and got choked up.

Here's some more from the link:

As the governor was en route to the amphitheatre they were told the crowd was showing “strong numbers”. What greeted him was a lot more than just “strong numbers” though. It was a massive wave of thousands and thousands of supporters. Before going on the governor apparently peeked out a few times and was shaking his head in disbelief at just how many people were there to see him. He was told by organizers up to a thousand more were turned away because there simply wasn’t any room left. People said you could feel the size of the crowd under your feet backstage. Somebody had passed out a ton of “thundersticks” and the people were banging them together and making this amazing rumbling noise.

Here's how the witness ended his telling of what happened backstage. Great insight.

“I’m 100% convinced Mitt Romney was shaken to his soul right then and there. I think at that moment it was sinking in he might really be the next American president, and it humbled him right to his core, in every nerve of his body. And as he was saying that little prayer, you could hear the sound of thunder from all those thundersticks outside. Like this huge low rumble that just surrounded all of them at once. A quiet little prayer, and the sound of thunder.
The sound of God.”

There is something so simple, profound, and powerful about this story. I love it.

I do not like Mitt's history - but I've been praying multiple time daily "Lord if it be Your Will, please bring the U.S.A. back to You, in Jesus' name I pray, Amen."

I will not join a cult of personality, but I do believe The Lord causes miracles...

Dear Lord, let it be so. Amen.

And the lame stream will NOT report or show the massive crowds for Romney, and how Zero keeps having to change massive outdoor stadiums to smaller indoor ones due to ‘weather concerns’. Compare this to 2008 coverage of the crowds...

Brian Williams let it slip about the depressed crowd numbers for Zero. He is probably in the wood shed now.

I long for a President who loves Gd.

I was taken aback. I found it strange, unnatural after four years of no prayer.zero was 100% zero. Empty, a void.

It had a soothing effect on my heart to read that Romney prays. Something I hadn’t thought of.

It will be nice to have a God fearing President again.

Wonderful story.

I watched the video and it was amazing to see thousands of Americans gathered for Romney. Governor Romney will win this. No way can that Kenyan and his assclowns steal our thunder.

Perhaps if the Mormons don’t have their own exocism specialists, Romney can invite the Catholic priests who do this work into the White House on his first day in office.

Thundersticks, sometimes known as cheerstix, bangers or bambams, are long, narrow plastic balloons that are used as promotional noise makers. The noise is created when two thundersticks are struck together. They are most often used at sporting events, political rallies and concerts.

Same here..I have tears in my eyes. a truly moving scene.

Probably should have been done when Clinton left office, really should be done now.........Not joking.
