"The Lord is my strength and my shield;
In Him my heart trusts;
So I am helped and my heart exults,
And with my song I give thanks to Him."
(Psalm 28:7)
Yeah. That is real secular. I thought it was awesome.
why are republicans so afraid of saying "Christmas" it was easy for the democrats.
"Merry Christmas From the President and Mrs. Roosevelt," said his first annual card, in 1933.
"The President and Mrs. Kennedy Wish You a Blessed Christmas" and 200 said "With Best Wishes for a Happy New Year."
Nothing wrong with that. The problem is that they've used an Old Testament passage for at least the last couple of years, which is obviously an attempt to prevent offending Jews and Moslems. At least they could have chosen a prophetic OT passage from Isaiah.
And what's wrong with saying "Merry Christmas" at Christmas?! Think about how idiotic it would be to send a "Happy Holiday" card to a Jewish friend for Passover.
I received mine yesterday too, and was EXTREMELY happy to see that bible verse printed on the card. Why that verse you might ask? I believe this was a way of W connecting with his Christian family, letting us know that the LORD is the one suppling the strength for all the problems his is facing. It's God who he counts on! It's comforting to know that he is solid as a rock in the Lord's foundation. Thank you Mr. President for sharing that with us! MERRY CHRISTMAS AND GOD BLESS!!
