Today I am thankful for: Josh feeling better tonight, God's guidance regarding Josh's illness, Madi eating a good dinner, Darrin doing well at tkd, my sweet children's prayers, sharing bible & devotions with the kiddos, my sister (Lord, keep her safe tomorrow!), my mom and her unconditional love for us!!, heated seats in the Santa Fe :o)
I only read Proverbs 8 tonight, but I'm simply awed by the greatness of God! Just trying to comprehend that He is the source of all things, that He just IS...it blows my mind! Proverbs 8 points out that rulers need wisdom to rule effectively; where does wisdom come from? God! He is the author of wisdom. Wow! I look at our world today and there is so much strife and corruption in world leadership. Gee, I wonder why... It is so painfully simple to me that without God, one simply cannot have the wisdom to guide others.
As we are gearing up for the 2012 presidential election it all just seems a muddy mess! I have quickly lost hope in potential candidates and I'm curious to see how things unfold. There seems to be so much damage already. Yet I wonder what will happen if certain candidates truly seek God and His wisdom in a genuine way...what might the race look like? No matter what, I pray we see a revival of wise leadership in and out of office. Corporate leaders, church leaders, local leaders, etc.--I pray we see a return to wisdom as the Author intended! I'm beginning with myself and my family. Thank You, God, for Your wise counsel!
