Jam the Vote!

A lil shout out to the Andy Samberg fans in the audience...anyway just got back from voting. Good times. It really is an amazing country that we live in. Everyone can vote! Well everyone that's of voting age obviously. That's pretty impressive when you look around the world and see what goes on in other countries during an election. The voter discrimination, the violence, the scandals and fear that are involved. It's kinda crazy! Sooooooooo... No matter what the outcome is tomorrow, let us all remember that God is still God and He is the one who we can put our trust in. It isn't the government or the president or the congress. It isn't the wisdom and social programs of man that change the world, it is the saving power of Jesus Christ! It is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and he will make your paths strait. Do not be wise in your own eyes, fear the Lord and turn away from evil. It will be healing to your body and refreshment to your bones." Proverbs 3:5-8

It's fine....Obama is Obama, Just like McCain is McCain. "I'm a pow son!". I think we overplay this stuff way to much. God is in control and we as christians even if we don't like him are to pray for them. Who knows maybe he will resign and make me President.

I came away with the same impression of gratitude for such a country as this.

Be blessed bro! I will be stepping out to your fridge now and then for a snack!

well at least your head was on straight when you voted. i didn't realize any of this until 12 hours after the results. either way, i'm happy God is still God no matter what the outcome is. that's what matters most.

loved 'jam the vote'! I think SNL was my favorite part of the election. I'm disappointed that McCain/Palin didn't win mostly because we won't see anymore of Tina Fey's Palin.

wait... if a president resigns he gets to pick the next president?!?!? i really should have paid more attention in government class! and if he would pick you that would mean you guys have to be friends right?!? maybe i should just pay more attention in life because i didn't know you were friends with the future president either! :) just kidding! i would vote for you for president dustin... because when you resign you'd pick me! :)
