Red, White, and Blue Wisdom

As we celebrate the birthday of our country, I pray that you have a blessed and safe 4^th of July.  I was compelled to share some of our forefather’s quotes that were in a 4^th of July ad in the Fort Myers, FL News Press, sponsored by Hobby Lobby, Hemispheres, and Mardel Stores. They are so reflective of CHG #10.

George Washington – “It is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly implore His protection and favor.”

John Adams – “…Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people…”

James Madison – “Before any man can be considered as a member of civil society, he must be considered as a subject of the Governor of the Universe.”

Thomas Jefferson – “And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are a gift of God?”

John Quincy Adams – “Is it not that in the chain of human events, the birthday of the nation is indissolubly linked with the birthday of the Savior?”

God – “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”  2 Chronicles 7:14
