[Spirited]

Thank you for giving us the post about President Reagan's sweet spiritedness during his illness, texasflower. I truly believe that it authoritatively speaks of the inner uprightness of the soul of the man.

It may have been Cheney who called him a "providential" leader. In closely observing I have come to perceive that that is more true than most suspect. His unique preparation for his God ordained purpose was too perfect to have been accidental.
The fact that RR's candidacy had to be forced on the RNC, etc. etc. Only a merciful God could have provided him with all that favor to bless our Nation with a leader so upright that He could bestow bloodless victories and economic largess through him.
I see it as a graphic fulfillment of this word:
Pro 29:2 "When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn." That said, my heart is aching for the Texas flood victims. May Our Lord provide deliverance to Texas from this flood scourge.

That's lovely.

I agree and that also certainly applies to our current President. President Bush has not been able to accomplish his duties without bloodshed, but I believe he was appointed by God as well.

Mine does too. We lost our house in the Texas flooding of 1994. We had a two story house on a hill, that was completely submerged. The process of clean up and recovery is horrible.

My part of Texas is fine this time.
