(Image borrowed from msn.com)Today is a big day in American history. And I really don't care if you are Republican, Democrat or somewhere in the middle like me...today is still a really big deal.
Barack Obama is taking office as our 44th President today.
I don't use this blog to promote my political beliefs...and that is not my purpose today either.
Today is monumental. We live in a country that has a deep rooted history of racial issues and segregation. Our new black president is taking office at the U.S. Capitol that slaves helped build many years ago. Today reveals a significant shift in the hearts of Americans. It reveals a barrier being broken down and equality becoming more of a reality.
I pray for, and stand behind our new President. I encourage you, no matter your political stance or beliefs, to do the same thing.

Well said Shauna...Although I did not vote for President Obama, I too, support and pray for his decisions and presidency as our leader. I have been watching the coverage all day and I am proud to be an American!
Amen Shauna. Well-said.
Amen!
These are 2 comments that I found out on the interwebs today that really ticked me off.
I cannot understand all the excitement surrounding President Obama. It baffles me.
I didn't watch today, just too sad. *sigh*
And this one (spelling errors are the posters, not mine)
43 Presidents have been sworn in before, why anyone thinks this one is more important or signifcant than any of the others is ridiculos
Rasberries to them & hooray for this huge day in American history!
Well said Shauna, and no matter who we voted for we need to pray our leaders! II Timothy 2 says to pray for them so that WE can live in peace and Godliness! It was certainly a historic day!
