This Indiana Congressman, Rep. Pence, was not afraid to stand up in Congress and proclaim that we, indeed, are a nation of prayer!
I work at my desktop with the children at my feet. A makeshift area rug made of white butcher paper lines the floor where the baby, crayon in hand, imitates her big sister. Sister focuses on the finishing touches of the house she designed. The catchy children’s song, Wheels of the Bus, blasts from the Toddler Station on Pandora Radio. Six year old Sookie unveils her masterpiece and I ooh and awe at the sketch. “It’s a daisy house!” I exclaim. “I love the colors. I wonder what the inside looks like.” Without hesitating, Sookie describes each room. “There are five rooms and they are all different colors. One is Mint Chip, another Strawberry. There is a Vanilla room, and a Cookies & Cream room and the last room is Rocky Road. You have to wear a sweater inside because it is very cold.” “A house made of ice cream,” I reply. “It sounds heavenly!” I dug into my Bible readings that morning ...
Thank GOD for all those willing to stand up and pray!! and call our nation to prayer!

Amen!!!May God give us, His witnesses, the boldness to share our faith based on TRUTH to this world filled with darkness.
ReplyDeleteWe must never cease on praying as our enemies are active to defeat God's children. But they know...they are defeated long ago! To God be the glory! May many more "Mike Pence" stand up and not be afraid! God bless you sister Mary. Have a great Wednesday!
Amen!
ReplyDeleteStanding on the Word of GOD is the only way to stand!
It is tragic to see the President/Administration the nation and the world rejecting the things of GOD. They will regret that because the Bible is clear: Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD.
Love you!
Hallelujah! That gave me goose bumps. It's so good to hear some good come out of that place!!
ReplyDeleteIt's sad to see what our blessed nation has come to but I still know that the Lord is in control!
Hugs to you sweet friend.

Oh that we had more BOLD politicians!
ReplyDeleteYes, AMEN! It sounded sooo good to hear a politician stand up for prayer and pray it boldly in front of all of us and our nation! Now let's have that same kind of action ripple and wave itself throughout the entire White House, the entire country and the entire world! Praise your Mighty name Father. Praise your Mighty name.

Thank you for coming by for a visit.
ReplyDeleteAnd, thanks for the reminder to get my little 'garden area' ready for summer.
Most of the year we are inside because of our Oregon rain, which leaves things so green and beautiful. =0)
I'll be back to read more later.
blessings,

Since I'm a resident, let me say Yay for Indiana! Mike's comments remind me of Isaiah 9:6 "... and the government shall be upon His shoulder".
