Well said.
I hear the voices of despair all around these days, those who are too ready to pronounce America dead. But I just can’t join them. How can I, when I have myself experienced God’s mercy, forgiveness, and redemptive power? If He humbly stands at the door of the heart of the individual and knocks, eager to redeem at the mere turn of the knob, how much more does He yearn for the salvation of an entire nation, especially one that was from its very beginnings sincerely dedicated to Him? So, I will go right on hoping, and praying, and working, in the belief that my fellow Americans will turn towards God again, as they have done before, and that the LORD God Almighty will move providentially, swiftly, on our behalf, and on behalf of our children and grandchildren.
...”He humbly stands at the door of the heart of the individual and knocks”....
Indeed ...but I do think He’s standing at the door of the church as a whole now and knocking to let Him in!
Too much in our churches today acts and does like the Laodicia Church ...and God spit them out of His mouth for their lukewarmness.
Unfortunately I’m afraid to wake them we must face another attach here....one that cannot be twisted by the media. Too many have forgotten 9/11 and or softened the impact it once had on the hearts and minds of Americans.
I sincerely hope you’re right...perhaps by looking ‘further ahead’ we can have that hope once more in our nation collectively.
