President Obama

Well…it’s a done deal. Barack Obama is the new president. Phew! What a ride! My grandmother went to be with The Lord almost 15 years ago, so she missed this monumental event in history. She knew it was coming, though. She spoke of it, a couple of years before she died.

I’ve got so many feelings going through my mind, right now — I’m excited, and hopeful and somewhat anxious. I know that there are those who are profoundly unhappy about this outcome, and I’m praying that our new president will get to serve a full term. I’m praying for his safety (his family also), and that God would impart wisdom and compassion. He will need every bit of insight and foresight from above.

The world is watching. I’m praying that he will get on the straight and narrow path — and stay on it. He can’t run on stupid. I’m beatin’ back the “Monicas”, in the spirit realm. Cuz if he messes up, it won’t be like any other president messing up. It’ll be magnified and seen as unprecedented, by those who never wanted to see a black man in the Oval Office, in the first place. Bush will seem like the “Neighborhood Ice Cream Man”, in comparison. So, I’m about to fast, pray and lay prostrate on the floor, in the formation of a cross. The wailing wall is up.

Don’t mess up, Barack.

      Yeah, Derrick…I’ve always thought about it. When those two white supremacist nuts were found out (they devised a plan to kill Barack and other black folk), I held my head.

      I wonder if some folks are born without souls. I DO know that’s not possible, but I would be lying if I said I didn’t…wonder.
