Praise the Lord for this beautiful Monday morning! My heart is still rejoicing over the wonderful services yesterday in the house of the Lord! The patriotic music was so very beautiful, and the good messages from our pastor blessed and encouraged our hearts!
This little prayer from an unknown author says it well ---
"I know three things must always be
To keep a nation strong and free:
One is a hearthstone bright and dear
With busy, happy loved ones near.
One is a ready heart and hand
To love and serve and keep the land.
One is a worn and beaten way
To where the people go to pray;
So long as these are kept alive,
Nation and people will survive.
God, keep them always, everywhere ---
The hearth, the flag, the place of prayer." Amen!
As we begin this new week, may we remember that God's Word says --
"Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord"; and we can only be blessed, and have peace and sweet rest, as we yield Him our body and soul.
