Dear Fellow Freepers in our prayer thread, our fearless leader Mad Dawg has asked me to pinch hit for him for a few days. I hope this new month will see us continuing in our quest for being the “people of God” and for allowing Him to work in our lives as He sees fit.

I remember when we first batted around the idea for this thread, a few commented about how it sounded like we were asking to be doormats or something. I hope as we have grown through this exercise we have seen how only when we do humble ourselves before God are we made truly strong – where it counts - and that through our weakness he is glorified. I truly hope we will continue to encourage each other with our daily trials and victories. A nation can change, but it is only through one heart at a time.

2 Chronicles 7:14 14 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 will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
