SUPPORT OUR TROOPS

 

And the Star-spangled Banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.---
Francis Scott Key

Dear Heavenly Father,

We are moved by the alarming news and crisis that our country is facing.This, the greatest nation,founded in the belief that "In God We Trust" and the "Land of the Free." Please have mercy on those suffering, hurting and in fear, and give wisdom and strength to those who are assisting. May the forces of evil be broken by Your power and may we humble before Thee, our Strength and Refuge.
Give wisdom to our President and our leaders and bring your comforting peace through the power of your Holy Spirit. Help us here to reach to those that have been affected by this tragedy.
In the name of our Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus. AMEN

Pray for leaders of the U.S.A. and nation leaders across the world.

The following song was written in 1944 during World War II by Ruth C. Jones.

In Times Like These

In times like these you need a Saviour,
In times like these you need an anchor,
Be very sure, Be very sure
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
This Rock is Jesus,
Yes, He's the One,
This Rock is Jesus, The only one.
