One Minute Each Night

America is considered a Christian country.  Nevertheless, according to 2009 statistics, there are approximately per year:

• 1.37 million abortions 

• 120,000 suicides
• 68,000 rapes
• 39,417 drug induced deaths
• 24,518 alcohol induced deaths
• 16,799 homicides
• 50% marriages ended in divorce

"You have heard that it was said to them of old: Thou shalt not kill. And whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment." (Matt 5:21)

" I hate divorce," says the LORD God of Israel," and I hate a man's covering himself with violence as well as with his garment," says the LORD Almighty. So guard yourself in your spirit, and do not break faith. (Malachi 2:16)


"If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town. I tell you the truth, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town." Matthew 10:15 


I do not know where the following originally came from.  It was emailed to me by a friend. 


May God forgive our country for the many evils we have allowed.

ONE MINUTE EACH NIGHT

During WWII, there was an adviser to Churchill, who organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing every night at a prescribed hour for one minute, to collectively pray for the safety of England, its people and peace. This had an amazing effect, as bombing stopped.

There is now a group of people organizing the same thing here in America; The United States of America, and our citizens, need prayer more than ever!!!

If you would like to participate, each evening at 9:00 P.M. Eastern Time (8 PM Central, 7 PM Mountain, 6 PM Pacific), stop whatever you're doing, and spend ONE minute praying for:

• the safety of the United States,
• our troops,
• our citizens,
• peace in the world,
• the upcoming elections,
• that the Constitution will remain the basis for the laws governing our land,
• and that Christianity will grow in the U.S.
If you know anyone who would like to participate, please pass this along.  Someone said if people really understood the full extent of the power we have available through prayer, we might be speechless.  Our prayers are the most powerful asset we have.

Please pass this on to anyone who you think will want to join us.

May God have mercy on America and may we turn back to what our Nation was founded on: IN GOD WE TRUST.  AMEN!

Vote YES/NO On These!

In this blog, I try to stay away from politics, but when the law goes against my faith, I have to stand up for what I believe. It's not a matter of bringing faith into a secular realm; rather, I live my faith, so it must be part of my daily choices, which include what laws I vote on -- otherwise, why have faith? Faith without action is dead.

I am including any law in the nation that I find that goes against life, marriage, the family and the dignity of the human person. I will add the laws as I find them. If you know of one/some, please comment. The upcoming election in November will be here very soon... Let us choose to support the dignity of every individual.


"Furthermore, whatever is opposed to life itself; ...whatever violates the integrity of the human person;... whatever insults human dignity, such as subhuman living conditions, arbitrary imprisonment, deportation, slavery, prostitution, the selling of women and children; as well as disgraceful working conditions;... all these things and others of their like ... poison human society, but they do more harm to those who practice them than those who suffer from the injury. Moreover, they are a supreme dishonor to the Creator." 
—Pope Paul VI (Vatican II) Gaudium et Spes, #27 (1965)
