The single most astounding thing that I have witnessed coming out of Sept. 11 is that God and prayer are back in style.
Now, this is the same God and the same prayer that we have put out of our schools, our government and our lives. The same God who “fearfully and wonderfully” made us – but we would rather our children be taught that they came from some primordial ooze.
Oh, yes, I pray He will bless America, that He will guide our president and his cabinet, our congressmen and senators. But remember, He is God. We cannot shove Him aside and then ask for His blessings without realizing who He is.
We better think about it, folks. It’s scary out there.
And now I’ll get off my soapbox and on my knees. My mother always told me to practice what I preach.
