Nobel Peace Prize

It was announced this morning that President Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize. I pray daily for our President as I have our past Presidents but isn't this a little premature since he really hasn't done anything yet? There are no accomplishments or body of work to look at. He was only President for 12 days before the Noble nominations were due last February. Here is an interesting article from a source outside of the U.S. about this:

Here is an interesting article from within the U.S.:

I honestly would have no trouble seeing our President win such a prize but that should be after something is accomplished. In light of that I will continue to do the same in praying for him, I could not imagine the pressure of his position. The depravity of our world makes his position one in which we must pray for him, this same depravity demonstrates the need of all for for Christ. Christ must be proclaimed!
