I also believe that McCain has more prayers, more sincere people humbly asking God to give him strenth, inspiration and success, than Obama has. This is based on my observation that liberals tend to make politics their religion and leave out God; conservatives tend to include God, and therefore would pray more often for their candidates and for our nation.Northern Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15969094667907320393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1219039592451741506.post-35730738729505253622008-10-07T17:12:00.000-07:002008-10-07T17:12:00.000-07:00This was my reflection on October 7, 2003, written...<A HREF="http://optimistmom.blogspot.com/2005/10/nicu-journal-october-7-2003.html" REL="nofollow">This was my reflection on October 7, 2003</A>, written 10-7-2005 and, curiously enough, Nanny is again at the Vatican this week visiting the current Pope.

Perhaps you could do one of those --what's the Yiddish?-- daven? <BR/><BR/>Today, for us, is the feast of <A HREF="http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/13189a.htm" REL="nofollow">Our Lady of the Rosary</A> when a whole country united in prayer and turned back a Turkish armada which was miraculously attributed to Mary's intercession. <BR/><BR/>This is the day 5 years ago when I hovered over my daughter's NICU isolette, awaiting a heart surgery the next day and casting my cares upon the Lord. The surgery was postponed and my daughter turned it around and decided in some cosmic way to live. <BR/><BR/>It could happen again.Ruth Anne Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01936054116421006847noreply@blogger.com
