At 11:00 AM Nov. 4th we are awaiting the counts to see who the Electoral College will choose . . .

I was listening to Steve Gregg, a national Christian radio person yesterday, who was talking with different ones calling in about the election. One caller was going on how she couldn't vote for Trump because he was so abrasive, etc. Steve told her voting for president was akin to hiring a CEO to run a large organization. The person may have this or that going for or against them in their personality, but the bottom-line was whether they could be trusted to run the organization in a way that would cause it to prosper, and not to run it into the ground. Steve believed the Democrats will take the country hard into socialism, and therefore run it into the ground, whereas Trump would not. (Steve also big on pro-life . . .)

This got me to thinking (oh no!). Regardless who we vote for, we are really voting Adam into office. Adam will, and surely is, running this whole thing (the country & world) into the ground. I think it's just perhaps trying to figure out who might do this a little more slowly . . .

When they stopped counting and sent everybody home last night, Trump was leading.

This morning they found just enough Biden votes to win WI, MI, NC, and PA.

I have never seen the vote counting in big cities lag behind rural precincts. How did this happen?

So here we are 4 days past election day, waiting . . . humans don't like to wait . . . we have little in the way of inherent patience I think. (and everyone is spreading fear, telling us what dastardly might happen if the other side wins)

So let me say, if Biden/Harris win - PRAISE THE LORD!!! If Trump/Pense win - PRAISE THE LORD!!!

In other words, in everything rejoice. Why? HE'S GOT THIS! The "King of Kings & Lord of Lords" isn't just a title - it's who He is!

No matter what happens in the day-to-day affairs of this life, I've read the end of the book and guess what? GOD WINS & WE THEREFORE WIN!!!

It's like sheep watching a master playing a big chess game. They have no idea what is going on. Therefore we must trust our wise, Master Shephard - HE'S GOT THIS! Like sheep, we're lucky if we see one, or maybe two moves ahead in this thing (if He has gifted us with such wisdom).

I think I'd like a T-shirt with some sheep standing around watching a chess board, and underneath the caption would say, "HE'S GOT THIS!"

Well, IMHO I must say that Kamala is the very best looking VP (elect - tentatively) we've ever had!

Some friends of ours said they figure it will be about six months before she assumes the POTUS position, through whatever means. Maybe we should start a poll - my WAG guess it'll be closer to a year if/when that happens.

But regardless if this happens or not - PRAISE THE LORD . . . HE'S GOT THIS!
