Last Tuesday the United States voiced its’ opinion, rather convincingly, on the course this country had pursued the past eight years. It’s the beginning of a new era, filled with hope and dreams.
We’re faced with so many problems: two wars, the economy, divisions within our own society, at times it seems insurmountable.
I have faith, my friends. Faith based on being able to look back on a half century ago. In 1957, President Eisenhower had to order troops into Little Rock, Arkansas to integrate the schools. Last week, an African-American became President-Elect of this country.
If this country can progress this far, it can do anything!
It won’t happen overnight. It may not happen in the next four years, but we have a start. A chance to be that special place the world used to think we were.
We’re going to have to sacrifice, struggle and stick to the ideals. It’s going to take some patience, but we can do this.
I’d ask everyone hearing this show, or reading this on the blog, to stop for just a second and say a short prayer. Pray the United States will find the strength to attain the ideals the founding fathers hoped for.
