“Obama was sworn in 1.5 hours ago.  Why isn’t the economy better?  I voted for change.”
                                                                            
                 – Tongue in cheek humor from a friend and Obama supporter.  

*****************

The markets have been selling off most of the day, but all eyes on Wall Street have been focused on the historical inauguration of President Obama.

Nothing, of course, will be resolved overnight with the current crisis, but it is encouraging that Obama is realistic with his assessment of the economy, open to ideas regardless of source, and hopeful about a future we all share.    

I prayed wisdom and discernment for President Obama this morning and hope you did too.  It wouldn’t be an easy job to handle and I’m grateful that there are those who would rise to the occasion and take it.

God Bless President Barack Obama
