A New Day!

Election day is over, and the results are in.  We have a new president to push us forward to the years to come.  
​
The day after election day can be the hardest for many people.  Especially people who voted.  We want our vote to count and matter and we want the person we vote for to win.  Unfortunately, in elections there is only one winner and one loser.  But what matters that Americans participate in the voting system and that we have all collectively selected a president, a senator, a house representative, and a governor.  These are the people that will make a difference in this country and the world.  These are the people we select to make the decisions that would be the best for the country.  As Americans we have to trust this process, trust in each other, and trust in God.

The day after election day is about winners and losers.  Whichever side you stand right now, know that what matters the most is that we need to still come together.  It hasn’t been easy to come together as Americans for the last 10 years.  We are getting more and more divided as the years go by.  

But regardless of who sits at the seat of highest power and influence in the United States of America, one thing is always certain.  They are never above God.  We pray and hope that the person who sits in power realizes this, humbles themselves before the Great I Am, and finds all wisdom, decision making on the behalf of God’s guidance.  

We the people as well have a responsibility the day after election day.  That is to continue to be good to each other.  No retaliation, no harm, or hurt will be done to anyone.  We are Americans and we stand together before God and God alone.  

This is not a day to gloat, but to celebrate and come together.  It is not a day to attack our fellow neighbor, but to embrace them once again.  Nothing about how we treat other people will change because we have a new president.  Treat each other with compassion, kindness, and dignity.  

Today is a new day, and we begin the point of transition, and we move forward into the years of the unknown.  We did our part yesterday, now we pray, and lift our heads up high.  

Once again, and always, God bless America.
