God is in control!

As Christians, many of us may feel as though the fate of our nation has been somehow "changed" by the results of this year's election. But, let's remember, God knows things about our future that we do not. There is NEVER a time when He is not in complete control of everything! Sometimes, His way is not what we think it's going to be. I am thanking Him for our new president and, as His Word tells us...
Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.
Romans 13:1
Our authorities ARE ESTABLISHED BY GOD. So, now it is time to pray that our new authority hears and obeys God's truth! And, trust that he will. As long as we know that we are doing all that we are called to do...
we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

It is wonderful to know that God is in control and not me! I would mess it up every time!

Love you all,
Melanie
