There is Only One Real, Definitive Answer

Within the coin change I received from a sales clerk the other day was a shiny new quarter. And on that quarter I was surprised to still find the words
In God We Trust.

I always found it humorous when certain groups go to great lengths to take the name of God out of everything, but never make it an issue on the dollar bills they so willingly spend.

America has been making a habit of it lately in it's continuance to omit the word God from just about anything it can find:

1. The mayor of New York City banned all religions and any type of prayer from
it's 10th anniversary memorial service for September 11th.
Thankfully the President and former Mayor of New York quoted scriptures.


2. The Washington National Cathedral excluded Christians from their
multi-religious memorial service. But the service did include: Buddhists,Hindus,and Muslims.

3. Pepsi Cola came out with some commemorative cans to remember September 11th.
They omitted the word God from the Pledge of Allegiance inscripted
on their cans.

4. Thanks to the Freedom From Religion Foundation,
another school district,this one in Mississippi,was banned of
any prayers over the PA system at their sporting events.
To no avail, students and parents complained, then hundreds took the
initiative and recited The Lord's Prayerbefore their school's next football game.

The schools case against the Freedom From Religion group is being looked at
by the Liberty Institute,which has a legal division staff of Constitutional attorneys.

One of these attorney's simply states:

"The Freedom From Religion Foundation is misinforming people.
You have a right to speak a religious thought,
even if it's over a PA system that's government owned, even if it's on
a public street, a public park, which are also government property."


If we continue to slowly take God out of everything in America, then what will She stand for?

Besides having all Christians uniting, standing together and making a difference in our society, there is only one other answer:

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

We as the Church still have a long ways to go if we truly are going to be a Nation transformed. But standing together in prayer is a good start.
