Heal Their Land

On this day of backyard barbecues and fireworks I am deeply thankful for the freedoms that have been given me. Given...

A gift.

Bought with a price.

And while I am deeply grateful to those who have paid that price...

I wonder, if the Lord should allow my children to get to be my age...

Will these same freedoms still exist for them...

And I can't seem to get the following out of my mind...

2 Chronicles 7:14
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

I wonder the same thing as you...will our children have the same freedoms in this country when they reach our age?

2 Chr. 7:14 - YES!!!

I posted about my daughter's cooking experience last night. Thought you might like to take a peek b/c of the comment you left!

So good! Thank you for this important reminder of our call as believers to confess the sins of our nation and humble ourselves.
