november already?

This morning Jonah said 'hey it's November!' and I realized it's already the 2nd of the month. Wow are we almost into another year? Where does the time go? It's been a great weekend- especially with the extra hour we had by turning our clocks back. This day just felt so long which has been great! We woke up earlier this morning because it felt like 8:30, even though it was 7:30 which made the whole morning so productive before we left for church. We even got there early. When does that happen? I even made muffins this morning! They were great too- coffee cake muffins, a recipe I swiped from the internet....I think through a blog somewhere. 
I'm proud to say that we have voted too! We mailed in absentee ballots this year, and I'm so glad we did considering the lines are expected to be very long this year. While I am not one to talk politics I do encourage everyone to vote. I am praying for the election as it is only a day away, and resting in the knowledge that God reigns no matter who our president is. I have peace that He is in control. In service this morning our pastor spoke of voting and how important it is to do that.  I know the candidates this year are not that great on either side. I know one is more of a socialist. Okay maybe that was saying too much? I just don't want to get started. Pray about your choices as you vote. Look to the Bible as your measuring stick- who comes closer to what the Bible says about different issues?
Ultimately it's in God's hands- aren't you thankful we get to serve a God who is so great?
