I voted for Obama, and I watched Fox News some. I also took into account that the latter typically lies about things. The bias there is undeniable. I think a lot of the young people who voted for Obama did a lot more research than we have been given credit for.

Thanks for the encouraging comment.

There's so many times I'm overwhelmed with things around me--like the election, world issues, and more. But I find that the Lord is ever near, and longs for me to come to Him first. When I do that, I really know I'm heard and find strength in Jesus to go through each day. If only I would come to Him sooner! :-) Blessings!

I say the same prayer

Somedays things are stressful and I pray to the Lord to help me. It always makes me feel better knowing I am not alone and the Lord is right there with me. Even praying a simple prayer and asking for help from a higher power can really help. Thanks for your post it's inspiring.

Hi .

My dear, i
think so me too!

But I think
that to believe in all people cause we’ve
needed so much to be trusty in our
future…and in own future too. Often the
people who to be the political activity,
they forget so that! A great country look like AMERICA, if she
cannot a much power about her credibility too in this time, her don’t
and mustn’t to forget own big reputation
in all world. The MYTHS ‘re necessary to all of as, in all time..You know.. I believe in that so much… I hope in every single man and women and so I believe
in that men who have in next" 4 november2008" the very important “mandate” Hi ‘ll having need a
lot of courage and credibility by all
the American’s People and I learn
now, that all of yours will getting him a lot. I’m sure!

tee hee! I love puns!

But i did something silly and commented on a thread about universal healthcare. I knew i shouldn't, but i got drawn in, and i thought it might be worth explaining what it's actually like.

i forgot that all this election stuff is not about facts. And now i'm sad that there is no exchange of views, no honest evaluation of perspectives, just lines drawn in the sand.

I may stay away from blogher for a while for my own sanity - it seems like just about every post is about this whole fuss!

yep

kazari — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 20:19:55 -0500

I just made vegetable stock, and three sorts of soup. And two sorts of curry. Trying to feel capable and independent in the face of forces I can not control. It's a temporary respite, I think. But I like the focus of chopping, stewing, stirring.

I hope you find some peace in your freezer, Mata!

well..

Mata H — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 10:06:35 -0500

I think G-d does want us to stay in the now, to care for each other in the present, extending compassion and love. Peace is there for sure.

sometimes we have to look away for a moment

Mata H — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 10:05:04 -0500

Well, I could never look away forever, but I need to find a place of spiritual peace and centered-ness -- and not let this election cause me to flounder off what I know is true. it would be so easy to get sucked into the drama and away from the substance. I'll post signs for my candidate and volunteer for my candidate, but I need to be praying and peeling veggies inbetween to keep from going all wonky.

love those tomatoes

Mata H — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 10:00:40 -0500

Kalyn those roasted tomatoes are like tomato-heroin! I roasted up a half bushel of plum tomatoes and froze them -- then tried grape tomatoes and cherry tomatoes ( a tray of each) and preferred the plum. I have sent your recipe on to others who are also buying bushels of tomatoes now, too!

Seems we all had been gripped by fear

evalou2 — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 23:04:16 -0500

We all know fear does not come from God. I wrestled with all this months ago...then I decided I am a prayer warrior...what am I doing? I need to pray about this. So I spent days in intercession about it all. Reading the Bible and praying almost frantically. Then I remembered a basic principle of prayer...if you ask for an answer...you must sit quietly to hear it. Want to know what I heard once I sat quietly to listen? God is always so simple we over look His answers looking for difficult answers to difficult problems. But nothing is difficult for God and so His answers never are either.

He sent me to one scripture and told me to focus on it...focus on it hard!

Mathew 6:34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

This was from Jesus himself! A command of sorts. And ever since I got it through my head...clearly and deeply embedded...I have been at peace. His peace...that peace that passes all understanding!

Luckily I'm so overbooked with my schedule that I don't have time to watch my TV news. But I think Virginia may be on to something there. I know who I'm voting for, on to preserving the harvest! I'm roasting some tomatoes right now.
