National Day of Prayer

Today is the National Day of Prayer and I confess that I forgot about it until I heard Glenn Beck talk about it on his radio show this morning.

Better late than never!

There's a National Day of Prayer Task Force website that lists some activities and events taking place across the country if you're interested. One of the scriptures at that site caught my eye:

2Ch 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall 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 don't see that happening today, but the fact that we have a National Day of Prayer gives one hope that we could become a praying nation every day at some point.

With all our faults, we still live in the most blessed and one of the freest nations on the face of the earth. Thank God!
