It's Not Just About Firecrackers and Picnics!

 Happy Independence Day!

We are a blessed nation still.

2 Chronicles 7:14 gives the solution to this nation's troubles.

It all depends on us.

"If my people, which are called by my name,
(Christians)

shall humble themselves,
("having or showing a modest or low estimate of one's own importance")

and pray,
(just talking to God)

and seek my face,
(worship, Bible reading, prayer, praise, quiet listening)

and turn from their wicked ways;
(What are you watching on t.v. or movies? What are you reading? Is it wholesome? Are you seeking a clean pure heart? Kind to others, even those in your home? Honest? There are all kinds of sins that some Christians overlook. We need to really seek the Lord and ask him to reveal those to us. We need to repent! We need to be different than the average American.)

then will I hear from heaven,

and will forgive their sin,

and will heal their land."

Let's do our part!
Thank you God!
