Ramifications

I posted yesterdays blog on my facebook page, and so far there are about 30 comments about it, a lot of which are mine defending my view points as not to be misunderstood, but there's been a lot of feedback on (what I thought to be) a very neutral writing.
I was/am simply asking Americans to make an educated decision, based on nothing but the facts and above all else, prayer. My hope is that the issues and stances we're clinging too so tightly are God's and not our own.
As the hours count down quickly to the final votes, people are taking very deep, passionate stances on the issues that matter most to them. Anti-socialism, anti-abortion, anti-war, anti-tax increases, pro-health care, pro-tax relief, pro-life, pro-change...There are a million, kazillion issues flying around and everyone is holding tightly to their ideals, ready to strike like a cobra at anyone who opposes them.
Being divided on every major issue is not something America is foreign to. It's been this way for a long time...and if anything, the response I've seen to my writings(although not indicative of my popularity :) is comforting, because it shows that people care. They care about morality, they care about the direction the nation is headed, and although there is division on the issues, America is unified in it's common desire: to see the best come out of this whole thing.
I'm excited for tomorrow. To see who wins, to see where the country is headed. If John McCain wins I will be excited to see if he is able to overturn Roe Vs. Wade and decrease our dependence on foreign oil...if Barack Obama wins I will be excited to see if he is able to safely but quickly end this insane war and tackle the health care crisis to help the sick and deprived get the medical attention they need to live. Like I've said before, I've never lived in an America not governed by George W. Bush, so I'm excited to see if fresh change will come with a new face in Washington.
I'm going to try and back away from this now and pray/observe over the next day, that God's hand will be on this nation and the direction in which it is going. That's much more powerful than any words I could type.
God bless America. Literally.
