...Revive and Restore Us

September 2

Jeremiah 6:16 says something that makes me think of America’s founding fathers. Here the Word proclaims, “Ask about the ancient paths—which one is the way to what is good? Then take it and find rest for yourselves.”

There is wisdom here for us today. We see changes being made to our government, to our economy, to our culture, to our total way of doing things and we wonder if our lot is being improved.

The reality is that we see evidence all around us of these newly-implemented schemes in our nation that have been tried and found wanting in other countries. The odds are that they will fail here, too. So why is our leadership bent upon unraveling the tried and true fabric of our nation and patching it with failure?

We can only ponder the motives for their schemes. But common sense tells us that if we are to prosper as a nation—as people of independence and prosperity and faith—we must return to the foundation that was put in place by men of profound faith in the One True and Living God! May He revive and restore us!
