does it really matter?

Yes, it does. But in what view? The micro view to be sure. How far out do we have to zoom to realize the unimportance of this election? Not too far I think.

God sets up and takes down. We know this. God punishes a people by allowing their sin to abound. America has been asking for God's judgment for a LONG time. So, disappointed? Yeah, I am. But I'm not too terribly shocked. We made it through Clinton. We did. I remember the elections and the voting. What I don't remember (probably because I was a kid) is anything that happened in those 8 years. I remember fervently, praying that he would get kicked out of office. I remember checking the votes on the TV every break in school. . .but do I remember a thing Clinton did? Nope. The joy of being a kid.

Of course the story is different now. I have my own place, my own family, and I will end up dealing with everything that happens. Such is life.

School is school. It is somewhat frustrating when I have so much to do and I can't get it all done. On the other hand it is extremely gratifying when I can get it all done, which I did today. ;)

We are looking at this other church. . .doctrinal statement is good again. So, we are looking at at least 3 independent kjv baptist churches with good hymnals within 20 minutes of us. So, this isn't like seeing horrible things and then settling on what fits. We have real options. So, we are still praying.

I got a key to the gym, so I will be trying to work out regularly now. I'm excited. I miss it.

I should go now. . .not getting any more typing done. Peace.
