To my dear Christian friends and family, devastated by the results of yesterday’s elections, I offer these words of comfort from Psalm 46:
1 God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,3 though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging.
No matter how cataclysmic or catastrophic events seem, we will not fear because God is our ever-present help. So let’s continue to pray and work and hope for the best. President-elect Obama is also in the hand of the Lord.
