I am an Obama supporter. I do believe in the capacity for change through the voice of the people, if we demand it, if we make it happen. I am ok with his call for this kind of engagement. I still can't bring myself to put the blue and red sticker, with Obama's face and the word <i>HOPE</i> in my window, because i just don't feel like that's where the honor is due. I am glad to be reminded that, while my vote may go for Obama, my <i>HOPE</i> is in a sovereign God. Hope is one of those words we should reclaim. I am an Obama supporter.

Particularly because I am losing hope that the war in Iraq will end soon. And I'm losing motivation to resist it anymore. It was on my mind this morning, thank you for sharing.
