Praying For America

Praying For America

“America, America, God shed his grace on thee.” I love these iconic lyrics from America the Beautiful by Katherine Lee Bates and Samuel A. Ward. They remind me that the only reason for the existence, blessedness and continued prosperity of America is the grace of God. As we celebrate our nation’s 246th birthday with fireworks, parades and family cookouts this week, let’s also reflect on the goodness of God. Take some time this week to thank Him for our free country, and pray that we as a people could live up to the highest and most noble reasons He has formed these United States of America. With His help, I believe we can be one nation under God. Now that’s something to pray about!
