Purple


NOT blue...NOT red

A moderate Republican or a conservative Democrat


This was the hardest election I've ever had to vote in. I read alot. Did my homework. In both candidates I saw strengths and weaknesses, traits to admire, areas of concern. But in the end, I made my choice, pulled the lever (oops, that dates me doesn't it????) and did my civic duty as an American.

And now as Americans, we need to join together to solve the challenges that face our country and our world. And remember whether you're blue, red, or purple -----


GOD IS IN CONTROL!!!


And a reminder from I Timothy 2:1-3 : 1I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone— 2for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. 3This is good, and pleases God our Savior.


Thanks to Becca, Kelly, Chiara, Kathy N. and Ali for their blog posts about the election. I've loved reading the varying points of view and the conclusions that no matter what we need to respect the office of the President and work together for the common good.
Enjoy,
Janet
