We need to pray for our country.

Absolutely. I'm not ready to throw in the towel yet. I've seen the power of prayer. I've witnessed group prayer heal people. I've seen powerful deathbed conversions. Jesus Christ said that if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you will not go unrewarded.

My suggestion? Fast, Pray and do good works. Nothing fancy. Give alms to the poor. Give up that candy bar, and give the proceeds to the poor. Most every church has a poor box. If you're able, volunteer at a Soup Kitchen occasionally. A good start? During this Thanksgiving Season contribute canned goods to your church or neighborhood food drive.

My Church has partnered with a large grocery chain to make available to the poor boxes of groceries. Stuff for a Thanksgiving meal. A lot of Churches are doing that. Given a chance Americans are incredibly generous.

Offer the personal and monetary sacrifices to God on High for healing in your country. Hey, it's not like wearing sackcloth but God sees the heart and the intent. Engage in counter culture - do senseless acts of generosity, ruthless acts of kindness.

Better to light one candle, than curse the darkness.

Most important, pray for each other.
