Happy National Day of Prayer, John.
I am thankful that we have the privilege of
joining together in prayer today, as I believe our country is in
need of prayer more than ever.
When I reflect on the National Day of Prayer
I am reminded of the powerful painting "The Prayer at Valley
Forge" by Arnold Friberg.
You can just imagine that he felt the weight
of his entire fledgling nation's future on his shoulders at a
time when things looked very bleak.
I often feel that weight today, as I am sure
you and many others do too.
I keep a print of this painting in my home to
remind me that there is hope - that our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ does answer the prayers of His people lifted on behalf of
a country at a crossroads.
When I view this painting, I am inspired by
the power of prayer, and how it was integral to the founding of
our nation.
John, we are clearly in a battle for the
heart and soul of our nation.
The enemies we face today are not so visible
- cynicism, hopelessness and distrust - but they can easily lead
to the loss of our liberties if we fail to pray for one another,
our nation, and its leaders as we ought.
The theme for this year's National Day of
Prayer is "Lord, Pour out Your Life, Love and Liberty," based on
the Scripture found in 2 Cor. 3:17:
"Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the
Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty."
Let us commit to staying on our knees in
prayer, appealing to the Spirit of the Lord to pour out his
blessings on our land, and to renewing a culture of life, love,
and liberty in our midst.
Steadfast and Loyal,
Lt. Col. Allen West
