On this day the Lord has made . . .

As I was driving home from the grocery store I heard a man on the radio ask what we were leaving our children/grandchildren. He mentioned how he would choose, over any amount of money, the writings from his grandfather . . . if he had left any.

So, I have determined to create a diary/journal of what happened to me on this day(s) the Lord has granted me.

Prayer

This came in an email the other day.

One Minute Each Night . . .

This is the scariest election we as Christians have ever faced.

From the looks of the polls, the Christians aren't voting Christian values. We all need to be on our knees. Do you believe we can take God at His word? Call upon His name, then stand back and watch His wonders to behold. His scripture gives us, as Christians, ownership of this land and the ability to call upon God to heal it. I challenge you to do so. We have never been more desperate than now for God to heal our land.

2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by My name shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive them their sin and will heal their land.

During WW11, there was an advisor to Churchill who organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing every night at a prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the safety of England, its people and peace. This had an amazing effect as bombing stopped.

There is now a group of people organizing the same thing here in America. The United States of America and our citizens need prayer more than ever!

If you would like to participate: each evening at 9:00 PM Eastern time, 8:00 Central, 7:00 PM Mountain, 6:00 PM Pacific, stop whatever you are doing and spend one minute praying for the safety of the United States, our troops, our citizens, for peace in the world, for wisdom and courage for our leaders, the up-coming election, and that the Bible will remain the basis for the laws governing our land and that Christianity will grow in the U.S.

If you know anyone who would like to participate, please pass this along. Someone said if people really understood the full extent of the power we have available through prayer, we might be speechless. Our prayers are the most powerful asset we have. Thank you.

Please pass this on to anyone who you think will want to join us. God Bless You!!!

Whoever wrote those words, please believe them, prayer is so powerful. Everyone who sees this - please take this minute out of your day and please help. Please pray.

The thought that keeps coming into my head is: "one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

That's what America stands for - Liberty and Justice for ALL. We need to be strong again. We need to be the country we were created to be. We need to get back to being the strong country. The country that is here to help and to lead. To do this I believe that we have to go back to the first part of that quote, the part that says, "One Nation under God".


Please pray.
