RU Blessed?

Today on Christian radio was the discussion of President Obamas recent trip to Georgetown
University, in which some of the religious symbols were covered in order for the platform to look the way he desired. Was it a deliberate attempt to distance himself from Christianity, or just an issue of ascetics? Responses were vehement from Christian leadership, "In 32 years of public ministry, I have never seen a President of the United States show such complete contempt and disrespect for faith. This action by the White House should appall and anger every American who cherishes sacred traditions...especially Christians.
"The fact that the Obama White House would ask a Catholic University to cover up a sacred symbol of Jesus to provide a better backdrop for his speech shows that President Obama has no understanding or respect for sacred expressions of faith.
"The image that the Obama team portrayed during the campaign of Mr. Obama being a man of deep faith, understanding and tolerance is now completely in tatters. It is stunning and shameful that anyone would ask a Christian institution to cover up a public expression of Jesus just so they could have a better background for a televised speech. This is not a person who respects or cherishes faith.
"What's next Mr. President, covering up the baby Jesus at Christmas events?"
The white house however stated that was not the intention and their official statement is:
The President appreciated the gracious hosts at Georgetown University where he delivered his speech on the state of the economy. Decisions made about the backdrop for the speech were made to have a consistent background of American flags, which is standard for many presidential events. Any suggestions to the contrary are simply false."
Bottom line is that regardless of your stand on this issue it is a time for prayer like never before. Pray for our President our Country and the knowledge and understanding to do Gods will. Galatians 6:7 -8Don't be misled: No one makes a fool of God. What a person plants, he will harvest. The person who plants selfishness, ignoring the needs of others—ignoring God!—harvests a crop of weeds. All he'll have to show for his life is weeds! But the one who plants in response to God, letting God's Spirit do the growth work in him, harvests a crop of real life, eternal life. If you feel like you are blessed by God then BE a blessing to others, their is always going to be a political figure or other persons of power who are not doing what you make think of as God pleasing. But you can be that person, Be that Blessing today!!
