Depressed about the Election? Read these Great Words from Gov. Romney

I’ve said that I vacillate between being miserable and slightly miserable, with the ocassional distraction.  However, a reader of Evangelicals for Mitt sent this to me, a quote from Mitt Romney’s address at Liberty University.  (h/t Ryan Morgan)

“What we have, what we wish we had – ambitions fulfilled, ambitions disappointed … investments won, investments lost … elections won, elections lost – these things may occupy our attention, but they do not define us. And each of them is subject to the vagaries and serendipities of life. Our relationship with our Maker, however, depends on none of this. It is entirely in our control, for He is always at the door, and knocks for us. Our worldly successes cannot be guaranteed, but our ability to achieve spiritual success is entirely up to us, thanks to the grace of God. The best advice I know is to give those worldly things your best but never your all, reserving the ultimate hope for the only one who can grant it.”

— Mitt Romney, during his speech to Liberty University
