Definitely too much to contemplate

"It's almost too much to contemplate", were the words of Mr. John Lewis, a 68- year old congressman from Georgia, who spoke on the compelling link between Mr. Obama's inauguration on January 20 2009 and the historic civil rights march on Washington on August 23 1968.

Certainly for the 44th President of the United States, Mr. Barack Obama has made a remarkable journey from his days of an unknown Illinois Senator to the President of the world's greatest economy.

Reflecting on what Mr. Lewis had remarked, I cannot but be reminded of my God, mighty creator of Heaven and Earth and all that He has done since the days of Adam and Eve.

"Definitely too much to contemplate", will be how I would describe my Abba Father, President of all Presidents, King of Kings of the Earth. There can not have been any body else that could have been so faithful, so full of compassion, so full of wisdom. Lord, while many of the people around the world are placing unrealistic and exceedingly high expectations on the new US President, Father I know that you would be infinitely capable of meeting all my expectations! Isn't this truly too much for me, or any one else for that matter to contemplate?

Father, all glory and all honor belong to You. On this day that the world is rejoicing over the dawn of a new era, Father, I too want to dedicate this day to You for your amazing love and grace that You have shown to Your people throughout time immemorial.
