Today is the National Day of Prayer and I believe with all my heart that our country needs prayer. We need to ask forgiveness for all the many ways that we have sinned against God. We need to pray for our leaders, that God will give them wisdom as they deal with the problems we face as a nation as well as dealing with other countries, both friend and enemy. We need to pray for our military, that God will protect them both physically and mentally.
God's Word assures us that He will forgive our sin and heal our land but we must do our part first. Please join me today in praying for our country.
Nice post and I so totally believe that this is what will heal our country, not everyone talking about how awful the other guy is but each of us looking into our own hearts and confessing our own sin and getting right with God.

Cyn, I join you in prayer for our country. I was so disappointed to learn that President Obama would not have an official White House ceremony for the day. How sad that he will openly announce before a foreign nation that America is not a Christian nation and then refuse to acknowledge our National Day of Prayer. My heart is broken for our country and for what I am so afraid our children and grandchildren will have to witness is things continue as they are.
