A Reflection on Today's Scripture:
Call upon God!
Certainly these are important and applicable words for our country
since the attack on the United States which took place on September
11, 2001. It is awe-inspiring to see how God can take such an
incredibly evil and destructive event and turn it into good. While we
grieve the loss of so many innocent lives, we can also rejoice at the
response to prayer and conversion back to God by the people of this
country. Not in 30 years has a president asked the United States to
pray! And that plea was heard and is being answered by so many
people!
We hope and pray that this Godly resolve continues and that we find
once again, that we are a nation built on and around God, rather than
on materialism and technology.
