Quote of Note

Billy Graham's Prayer For Our Nation

: 'Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance.

We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done.

We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.

We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.

We have killed our unborn and called it choice.

We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.

We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem.

We have abused power and called it politics.

We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.

We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression.

We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and Set us free.

: Amen!'

I saw this bumper sticker the other day and I had my camera with me. I've seen it before, and most of you have also. It made me think though; Do we want Jesus love or the world's love? Yes I know that Jesus loves us all even when we are sinners, but the World stops pretending to love us when we become Christians. SO its Love/love with God, or polluted love/hate with the World. Which would you rather have? Isn't that what it really all comes down to: A friend of the World or a friend of God!?

Quote of note form Sept 09

"I believe what really happens in history is this: the old man is always wrong; and the young people are always wrong about what is wrong with him. The practical form it takes is this: that, while the old man may stand by some stupid custom, the young man always attacks it with some theory that turns out to be equally stupid."
G.K. Chesterton
