National Day of Prayer

Today is the National day of Prayer. We all need to pray for our nation.

This is for every faith. It was started back in 1775.

In 1952 president Truman signed a bill into law for the National Day of Prayer.

Here are two links that explain this more.

Jeremiah 29:11

11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Isaiah 43:1-2

The Redeemer of Israel
1 But now, thus says the LORD, who created you, O Jacob,
And He who formed you, O Israel:
“ Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by your name;
You are Mine
2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned,
Nor shall the flame scorch you.

Our country certainly needs prayer. I'm glad this day is set aside for prayer.
