We all need to humble ourselves and ask forgiveness for our sins and for our nation. I hate to see so much immorality in America. And,, hate this political correctness. Thats the beginning of our going downhill as a nation. And, it in itself is not fair. So many are not even called down on their intolerance, only the ones who seek to honor GOD.

When I read about the past I often come across days of prayer and fasting proclaimed by the government leaders as well as clergy. It is remarkable to me that so often prayer events today are prompted by individuals, who still see the importance of calling out to God in praise and Carla Gadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01793809172905144101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139112422565969072.post-86514792275919202622013-04-28T12:17:20.057-04:002013-04-28T12:17:20.057-04:00Our nation truly needs prayer more and more every ...Our nation truly needs prayer more and more every new year/day.
