"Hill" Makes A Comeback!
In 1992, they called her husband, a little known Governor from Arkansas named Bill Clinton, "The Comeback Kid". Today, they can call his wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, "The Comeback Kid" too. Just when I thought she was dead, just when I thought Barrack Obama was about to deal the knockout blow, Hillary proved to a lot of people (including me, I'll admit) that she is not out of this race yet.
I thought that they would split Ohio and Texas, with Obama taking Texas and Clinton maybe taking Ohio. Hillary won both Texas and Ohio, with Rhode Island thrown in there too. Obama took Vermont. So last week, I was saying that Hillary missed the "head shot"... this week Obama missed the "knockout". He still has the most delegates and this race is still too close to call. Get ready Pennsylvania... the battle shifts to this state. It's like a rollercoaster ride. Here we go!
Oh, to nobody's surprise, John McCain knocked his last contenders, Huckabee and what was that other guy's name (???), completely out of contention. He is the Republican nominee for president.
And, Mike Gravel is STILL running for the Democratic nomination!

KEEPING THE FAITH: RANDOM PRAYERS "ON THE DOWNLOAD"
DEAR GOD: Sometimes it is so hard to wait. To wait for new things to happen in my life. To wait for you to answer my prayers. To wait for the open doors that may lead me into a new way of being. During the time of waiting, it seems that all I can think of is having what it is I am waiting for. At times I feel weary of asking and waiting, and I wonder if you really hear my prayers at all, if you are ignoring me, or if you are simply refusing to give me my heart’s desire. A part of me knows that you want my best, and that your time is not my time, but Lord, it is still so hard to wait. Deepen my trust, O Lord, during the times when my heart longs for what can only come in the fullness of time. Give me a calm assurance that your will for me is grander than anything I could ever imagine. Still my mind and heart in your love so that I am mindful of the grace you are draping around me every single day, every single moment. I ask this for the sake of your love. Amen.
