A Change has Come!
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another. ~Anatole France
Scripture:
"When they sin against you—for there is no one who does not sin—and you become angry with them and give them over to the enemy, who takes them captive to a land far away or near; and if they have a change of heart in the land where they are held captive, and repent and plead with you in the land of their captivity and say, 'We have sinned, we have done wrong and acted wickedly'; and if they turn back to you with all their heart and soul in the land of their captivity where they were taken, and pray toward the land you gave their fathers, toward the city you have chosen and toward the temple I have built for your Name; 2 Chronicles 6:36-38 (New International Version)
Today marked a time in History that many will call to remembrance. Today, America consummated the dream of many that was born on the backs of a few. Today, Barack Obama, became the 44th President of these United States and just in case you didn’t know, President Obama just happens to be a black man.
This event held extreme importance because it marks the acceptance of a man based on the content of his character and not the color of his skin. We the people collectively joined voices and said, “YES WE CAN” elect a man based on what we perceive are his strengths as apposed to false and long outdated misinformation that stated that a black man was less than a man. A black man who galvanized a nation; young and old, rich and poor, touching the hearts and minds of ALL races to become the leader of one of the greatest countries in the world.
Today we cry tear of joy because, AT LAST A CHANGE HAS COME!
Be Blessed
Prayer:
Jesus wept. Amen.

Amen, Jackie!
A change has come and I am so very proud that I am alive to witness it all. My Dad is alive to see this, and I can't thank God enough for this blessing: President Barack Obama!
