Today is a turning point in our country; and, I feel a prayer by Reverend Billy Graham who is 95 years old is appropriate.  This man sure has a good view of what’s happening to our country:

“Heavenly Father, we come before  you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance.  We know Your Word says, ‘Woe to those who call evil good,’ but that is exactly what we have done.  We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.  We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.  We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.  We have killed our unborn and called it choice.  We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.  We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem.  We have abused power and called it politics.  We have coveted our neighbor’s possessions and called it ambition.  We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression.  We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.  Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from sin and set us free. Amen!”

With the Lord’s help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we once again can be called “One nation under God!”
