Today is the National Day of Prayer, but yesterday one the staff and I were discussing how at some point the government could possibly try to force people not to recognize it. This conversation came about because today we have the opportunity to go to the capitol to pray with other church leaders.
It made me wonder...what if it really did start happening? What would you do if the government began to tell people we couldn't pray publicly anymore?
I can't help but think about our fellow brothers and sisters that are in countries where they can't pray nor worship publicly. There are many in other parts of the world who must hide in order to keep their lives if they worship Jesus as we do so freely here in America. I feel for them and pray for them daily.
I'm proud of my country and proud that we still can gather together and worship freely. It humbles me to know that its a privilege that we have. I pray that I never lose sight of the blessings that God has bestowed on me.
