Four More Years

The votes are in and we will continue to have four more years of President Obama.  I hear that the election process cost billions of dollars.  This was a very expensive pause in the course that was sure to continue.  I wonder how much better the money could have been spent if we simply reverted to having an eight year presidential term with no re-election.  It's not only the money, but all the time and energy spent on campaigning that our president could have used to do his job.  I know that I'm only one person, and not a formidable advocate on a large scale.  My voice may not be heard on the national news, nor in the halls of Washington, D.C.  But, I am sure there are thousands upon thousands of those who agree with me that our nation needs to have more common sense.  It bends to the voice of the expedient, not weighing the wisdom of consideration.  I love what the bible states about conducting ourselves in such a manner that would yield long and lasting results, not only for ourselves, but for future generations~"Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gains understanding; for her proceeds are better than the profits of silver, and her gain than fine gold."

Wisdom is a rare commodity.  Yet, it is available to those who seek God and follow Him.
