I was just getting to my seat as she began her remarks which were based on scripture. She reminded the crowd that the Lord would judge a nation by a gatekeeper, by the one willing to stand in the breach. What was powerful about her words were NOT that she was a GWB supporter, but that she wants to discern what God wants and follow God's leading, and that she believes God wants GWB.
I posted some sarcastic comments earlier this week about what happened in FLA when 2200 Corrine Brown supporters "accidentally" spoiled their ballots by voting Gore-Browne (Browne was the libertarian candidate) instead of Gore-Brown. I think God was in that.
I don't want God on my side...I want to be on God's side. That is my own thought and what I gathered from Kim Alexis remarks...
I also remembered to take plenty of pictures of the "beautiful people" wo were there today. I will post a picture of Charlie, later. He was four years old, but insisted on wearing his suit and tie to see the President. I also loved meeting four year old Chad...he had dimples...
I don't want God on my side...I want to be on God's side. That is my own thought and what I gathered from Kim Alexis remarks... Amen!
The black woman behind me was in tears saying, "Amen, Amen, Amen, and that girl can PREACH," while Kim was talking.
The bad news is, the pictures on my digital aren't that great and I can't download them without DH by my side and he is sick and won't come help me (waaaa). The good news is, the pictures on my good camera will be great, but I have to wait until tomorrow to develop them. Sigh. I'm frustrated.
We were RIGHT at the entrance where everyone was walking on the field. It was pure luck. The only reason we sat there was because the short, concrete wall would protect us and give us some shade from the sun. LOL Who knew that would be where George, Laura, Jeb, Mel, Sean Hannity, Karl Rove and Karen Hughes were going to be. OMGosh, I can't even describe the emotions. It was so powerful, exciting, overwhelming, and humbling.....Laura looked us straight in the eye and waved at us…TWICE!!!! I'm going to be talking about this for months. ROFL I'm still giddy (but dehydrated...need water).
Dutchgirl, will you get to go work up at headquarters on Beach? We've been once and we're going again this week. Now that my MIL left yesterday, I'll have more time to devote.
