Bring Back Alan Greenspan

One of the reasons I haven't been posting a lot of post on my blog is because I really haven't had much time to do anything lately. My eyes have been glued to CNN.com trying to get my mind around the financial calamity that has hit the United States. It's so weird to be so far away and have to hear about bad news like Hurricane Gustav, Hurricane Ike, and now the sickness of our economy. Our country is in a very scary condition right now.
Since I've been here in Korea my prayer life has been exceptional, but I feel like that's only the case because I have less distractions, less issues, and less worries. I mean I'm glad that I'm practicing good habits, it's just I think it's ironic that we call on God when we need him the least. I wonder how many of our national leaders have consulted with God about our problem at hand or has all their faith been put into a $700 billion dollar bailout plan? I hope and pray that people who are dealing with losses from the hurricanes and people who are making decisions in the next couple of days are asking God for his opinion, because in the midst of our shortcomings as well as our prosperity, his is the only one that counts.
