“There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble apprehension, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution.” ― John Adams

“Terrorism is a psychological warfare. Terrorists try to manipulate us and change our behavior by creating fear, uncertainty, and division in society.” Patrick J. Kennedy

Thank you, Jesus for another day, has been my prayer for the last few years. With the breaking of each day, I have been blessed to have my husband still by my side. Life goes on for us until it doesn’t. Our prayers are not what keep us here, it’s what God has ordained for each one of us. Today I say, “thank you, Jesus for another day. An election has taken place, and the voice of the people has spoken. No matter what your political bend, we continue to have that right to vote. As a unified nation we have the ability to work together.

There will be broken hearts, fear of our nation’s demise, threats to our leaders, more rhetoric and who knows what else. God is still in control. He is the One who created this orb – the One who continues to watch over and direct it – The Sovereign King who will never leave us. When we separate from Him, we are losing out on the greatest gifts of all. Instead of a day of sadness, loss or fear and anxiety, we should consider today a new beginning. We can start by setting aside our differences and start the healing process. Division has been our downfall for a long time. It’s time to start looking at our country and its leaders with respect and honor. We must also remind ourselves that life goes on. The world still turns until He decides otherwise. His love endures forever!
