There is a lot of hooplah going on in Washington over Justice Souter’s resignation from the high court. We can fret and worry about who will be nominated to take his place. With all the anti-isms that this president and congress stand for, we can pretty much count on someone who will do their bidding.
Instead of fretting and worrying, I choose to pray for God’s Will in all things, and for the perseverance and faith to keep my eyes on Jesus through the turbulent times ahead.
One positive act that most are not aware of is the new Bill, H. Res. (for House Resolution) 397 that Rep. Randy Forbes of Virginia has introduced to Congress.
If passed, the Bill would designate the first week in May as “America’s Spiritual Heritage Week.” It would coincide with the National Day of Prayer on May 7. Dr. Dobson of Focus on the Family made a personal appearance at the press conference in Washington, D.C. in support of this Bill.
“H.R. 397 will serve as a valuable primer to help all Americans understand the strong role played by the Christian faith in the foundation of the country. It’s a quick read and its facts cannot be denied.”
“If you take the time to read the bill I guarantee you that you’ll have a new appreciation for the role played by the Christian faith in the founding of our country, and you will be much better equipped to sort through the noise as the debate over the Supreme Court vacancy reaches high decibel levels in the coming weeks.”
Sincerely,
Tom Minnery
Senior Vice President
Focus on the Family
GO HERE TO READ THE BILL and then HERE TO WATCH A SHORT VIDEO describing the Bill.
Some may be surprised at the names they see on this Bill. There are more Christians in Congress than we may think. There are also many, many, many true Christians in our country who really need to be on our knees pleading with God for the ‘Real Change’ we must have.
