Peace

"Do not look forward in fear to the changes of life;
 rather look to them with full hope that as they arise, 
God, whose very own you are, will lead you safely through all things; 
and when you cannot stand it, God will carry you in His arms.
 Do not fear what may happen tomorrow; 
the same everlasting Father who cares for you today, 
will take care of you then and every day. 
He will either shield you from suffering or will give you unfailing strength to bear it. 
Be at peace and put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginings."
 --St. Francis de Sales
It has been an incredibly long two days! I am to be truthful concerned about the days to come. But, the above prayer from St. Francis de Sales is a wonderful reminder to anybody that seems overwhelmed by the results of the elections. Christ is in control. This is a great time for us to remember that he is our King and that He will continue to guide and lead, we simply need to TRUST in him and in His Divine Providence. 
Blessings, Joy
