Praying today

If I look closely at the times in which we live, I can quickly become afraid.

What is right is counted as wrong, and what God says is wrong is now acceptable and even encouraged.

So much change in my lifetime that I never thought I'd see in a hundred years.

But if I look at Him, I have hope.

He lives.

He sets the days and seasons and has determined the times in which I live.

He has not looked away or lifted His hand from me, from us, from His children.

He will never leave us nor forsake us.

And it is through fire that we are refined.

Our country has happily turned its back on the one true God, but there is a remnant...a people willing to stand and believe and be the hands and feet of Jesus.

Today, on this National Day of Prayer, don't forget to stop and look in to His face.  Pray for our nation.  Pray for Christians to rise up in strength and conviction.  Pray for a desire for holiness to sweep our hearts and homes.  And pray for the Lord to raise up leaders who will stand for Truth no matter what the trends or polls say.
