America is just coming-to after a near-death experience. We came within a hair’s breadth of ceasing to be America. If November 5th hadn’t been so decisive, we’d still be counting (and manufacturing) votes. If Trump hadn’t been so decisive, so ready to jump right in and get started, we’d all be disappointed cynical. This election has brought us back to life.
I, for one, am thrilled that America didn’t die — hasn’t yet, anyway. We’re still stuck in the Biden muddle for several more weeks, but the clean-up and healing is already underway.
You see, we Americans pray. Not every one of us; it’s not required for citizenship, but millions of us have been addressing the God of the Bible and He answers prayers. “Whatsoever you ask, believing, you shall receive.” This is what receiving looks like.
And as we come out of our national coma, we’re starting to see what evil looks like. It’s been wearing a smiley face and whispering sweet little lies for decades now and that worked as long as we didn’t wake up, but the sun is up now and we can see just how ugly the Left’s plans are. They’ve been tinkering with our minds for generations now. They’ve been patient, and they’ve taken their time so we wouldn’t notice that we’ve veered, ever so gradually, off course. But now that we’re pulling into the station (forgive me for switching metaphors) we realize that we never meant to buy a ticket to this awful place. November 5th we had a chance to switch trains and we did.
Now some of the smarmy conductors are groveling and hoping the propaganda they’ve been spewing isn’t true (I think of Mika and Joe.). Some of the wealthy are packing their bags (Bon voyage!). Some are sitting in secret meetings plotting everything from general interference, which could look like hit pieces in the MSM, to swarms of drones, to murder. To heck with the wishes of the American people. Most of the defeated are just hunkering down and avoiding political discourse (Merry Christmas). Some have legitimate concerns (None of us want illegals crammed into freight cars like cattle.) Many leftists need medication and therapy (ASAP). A great many need information (truth); they’ve been without it for so long.
America took a long time to get this far off track, and she’s going to take time to find her way again, for as much as we’d like an immediate correction, that can’t happen. It would cause more chaos than our lostness can withstand. But we can start, and it is so encouraging to see Trump lining up his posse (another metaphor switch). We’ll keep praying that the essential deputies get confirmed. We all think we know who would be best in these important positions, and not even Trump knows for sure. But God does. So back to prayer again.
