America has spoken by choosing a new direction and different leadership…so hopefully we can set aside our differences and pray for President-Elect Donald Trump. I also pray that the Lord will give him the wisdom and courage to do what is truly right for America.

This election has been long, tough, very divisive and it’s time to put all that behind us. The tough reality, as a deeply divided nation, no matter who won there was going to be disappointment and anger. Hopefully we can shake off the dust, beat our partisan swords into peacemaking plowshares, shape our verbal spears into loving pruning hooks…and come together as Americans.

Some takeaways I wanted to highlight:

1. Washington and the media are completely out of touch with the pulse of many Americans.
2. “Hope and change” does not mean the same thing for all Americans.
3. We are still a deeply divided country and hope healing can happen.
4. Polls are completely bogus!
5. God allowed this to happen for His purposes.
6. So glad the political mailers will stop filling up my mailbox!

Remember what Psalms 131:3 tells us: Put your hope in the LORD both now and forevermore!

Interesting times ahead and may God Bless and help America!
