Farewell to a President

Love him or hate him, President G.W. Bush has been our President for the last 8 years. MANY will say he has ruined this country, yet instead of looking at what we think he did wrong (honestly, could we have done any better), we need to celebrate the man who had the courage to run this great country of ours.

I took comfort in knowing that our President was a God-fearing man; a man who started & ended his day in prayer. I may not agree with the decisions he made at certain points of his leadership, but I thank him for being in that position. Not everyone has the guts to be President and make decisions that not only impacts them, but the ENTIRE country and sometimes the WORLD.

As we enter into the final days of his term, I thank God for President Bush & his devoted wife, Laura. May God continue to bless them & work through them long after the attention has faded. I pray for President-elect Obama & his family as they embark on a journey that is not for the faint of heart. That the Lord protect their family and their marriage. He/They will be watched closely by the world and under tremendous scrutiny.

And so a new era begins....

Many blessings,
Allison
