I’m
still reeling from last week’s election. Most people I know are, too. Even
though the polls told us clearly enough that President Obama was highly likely
to win, many of us had persuaded ourselves in the end Mitt Romney would
prevail.
In
the weeks leading up to the election evangelicals across the country prayed,
held rallies, preached, wrote and in general did everything possible to assure
the faithful that God was going to defeat Obama. But in the end, Romney didn’t even
do as well as John McCain, the 2008 Republican candidate against Obama.
It
was as though David slung his stone at Goliath, and missed.
