Tomorrow is a special day all over the United States. The first Thursday of every May is set aside as “The National Day of Prayer“.They are predicting rain for tomorrow, but I’m sure there will be some of us that will meet at the Town Hall around noon, and other places throughout the day.

Actually, every day is a good day to be praying for our Nation, our present and future leaders, military, fire department, first aid squad members (here it is mostly volunteer), store owners, school teachers, the list is just endless.

• Theme this year is: Prayer, America’s Strength & Shield
• Verse: “The Lord is my strength and shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Psalm 28:7
• 2008 Prayer for our Nation by Dr. Ravi Zacharias:
• Holy Father, in a world where so many are hungry, you have given us food in abundance; In a world where so many are hurting, You offer to bind up our wounds; In a world where so many are lonely, You offer friendship to every heart; In a world longing for peace, You offer hope; Yet, we are to stubborn and resistant, Have mercy upon us, Lord. Our nation is at a crossroads this year, we look to you to be our strength and shield. Please give us the guidance to elect one who will honor you and to respond to the wisdom from above so that our hope may be renewed and our blessings be treasured. In God’s holy name, Amen
