We live in time like never before of spiritual poverty, you don't have to look very far to see all of the confusion in our land. We have many faiths, places of worship, and the Holy Bible at our fingertips, yet we are at war, and in our own homes, anger and division is widespread.

This is why I feel compelled that we all need to work together to bring us back to the fundamentals of the Founding Fathers of our country -- prayer.

To let these words each day absorb into our souls and transform our lives. May it guide us to make Christ the center of our lives even more than now.

Many people do not believe the God loves them. May they see that God is in the world -- through you.
