July 4
Old Glory flies from the deck of our cottage on Cedar Lake, Sturbrdge. Friends arrive for a cookout. At dusk, we will paddle canoes to the middle of the lake to watch home-launched aerial fireworks. First we pledge to our flag, "one nation under God." But we are not one nation under God. There are those who take offense at the word God. We are divided.
"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 will heal their land." (2 Chronicles 7:14)

Mal,
I agree with you that we are no longer One Nation Under God. I hope and pray that more of us will humble ourselves, and pray, and seek God's face, so that He will heal our land!
peace...
Paul
