Two Things~

It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible.~ George Washington


=====================================================================

Today is February 16.  February 22 will be  George Washington's birthday.  He was born on that day two hundred and seventy seven years ago.  George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and the builders of our country's government, believed in the statement written above.  We are a young country , in comparison to most.  Almost three hundred years is just a blink in time.  But, when these men framed our constitution, and laid the stones for our foundation, meant for it to last for all time.  When our government was instituted, it was based on prayer, God's Word, and the belief that all men were free and equal.  I read the news headlines these days, and wonder what our founding fathers would say about our government today.  Would they think we were headed in the right direction?   Would they be proud?  Would they say that the two things they valued above all else, were still being honored today?  I wonder.  I believe that our country is still the greatest one on earth.  I believe we can keep it that way, IF we put those two things first.   God, and the Bible.
