Perhaps we will end up thanking Judge Barbara Crabb for her "Crabby" ruling Thursday, because she may certainly end up motivating folks who haven't actively participated in the National Day of Prayer, to become involved this year. We so often fail to treasure things until it appears we might lose them. Perhaps, the threat of losing this freedom, will motivate thousands to attend prayer rallies on courthouse lawns across our nation, to join together in prayer from Colifornia to the New York Island, from the Redwood Forests to the Gulf Stream waters.
The National Day of Prayer is not the establishment of a religion, and therefore does not violate the constitution. It is a day when across our nation we join together, regardless of our church affiliations, appealing to God for His mercy on our nation. Together on this day we recognize the faith in God that united our Founders, the signers of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of these United States of America. They were ALL men of faith. The placed their reliance on God, and often appealed to Him in prayer. May we never fail to honor God and that faith in Him that has made America great!
