Well here it is almost the end of another year. I usually look forward to a new year and make all kinds of resolutions for self-improvement. Several years ago I began to think of all that I wanted to experience or accomplish on this earth before the Lord calls me home. (Reminds me of that movie called The Bucket List.) One of the things on my list was the one I really wanted to do and that is read the Bible in its entirety. Some have read it all the way through several times. One young man I heard once give a testimony was in his mid 20's and had read it through five times. He was confined to a wheelchair. He put me to shame. I have to admit that it took me more than a year to read the One Year Bible but I eventually did complete it. What a blessing and what a sense of accomplishment. So that now every year I make this same resolution. The most positive side effect of course is that it keeps us in The Word probably more often than we would be otherwise. Even though I'm always playing catch-up, it's the goal that I keep my focus on so that each day I'm eager to get back to the Bible. In fact, if I don't do it first thing in the morning, I find myself rushing through my routine just to get back to His Word. I wouldn't be surpirsed if many of you have already read it through several times. If you have, why don't you share your experience here. If you haven't, I urge you to TAKE THIS CHALLENGE AND THEN RENEW IT EACH YEAR! I don't have to tell you how He will richly bless you! God Bless you all!

I remember reading about the children of Israel who turned from God time and time again, only to realize their mistake and pray for forgiveness. Each time, God would forgive them and they would walk
with him for a time. So, I am going to ask you to join me in praying
for our nation every day.. Please read the email below. God is in
control.

May God Have Mercy On America ; Protect Our Troops


When I was in Atlanta last week, there were signs in people's yards
that said, " America , prayer is our only hope" - with 2 Chronicles
7:14 underneath.. We certainly need God's help!

I have no idea who started this, but I certainly agree with this
e-mail. I heard a preacher on TV tonight who said if we pray for our
nation things will turn around.

After a day of contemplation and soul searching, I have decided to
reach out to my friends and relatives and ask you to do something
that has been troubling me for a long time.

Our nation is/has been on the slippery slope for a long time. If you
look around you will find corruption, greed, moral decay, and a
steady move away from the things that made us great. The principles
upon which this nation was founded are no longer our backbone.
However, we can reverse this trend.

2 Chronicles. 7:14 in God's Word, He states,
"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."

I am convinced that we must pray for our nation and its leaders and
ask for forgiveness. So I ask you to join me in this plea to our Lord.

Would you please send this to people in your address book? Ask them to pray EVERY DAY. (25 to the 5th power is 9,765,625 people.)
IMAGINE if each person reaches TEN others... Or all TWENTY FIVE!

If you do and they comply, we will lift up millions and millions of
prayers a day to our Creator. He will hear us, and in faith will
answer.

Here's a quote from Ronald Reagan:
"If we ever forget that we are one nation under God, then we will be
a nation gone under."

I truly believe this is why the United States of America is in the
shape it's in today.

Most people have forgotten that we are ONE NATION UNDER GOD! Let us as Christians stand up and remind people of this.

Grayfox, i may be able to do better than that. i have one e-mail account in which i have about 50 churches and usually more than one contact at each. If i can e-mail your request to these Churches, then hopefully these contacts could pass it on to members. Then again i suppose if this violates the tax exemp status of the church, they may feel prohibited from passing it along to members, BUT it is worth a try. i'll also send to my e-mail contact list though it seems to me that many people - even Christians - are still asleep to all that's going on and are in their own little worlds. So they may do nothing with it. Thank you for caring though. Those who truly care are becoming more and more rare - hey i just made that up - lol!
