This week in the masses
of data coming through on the internet, there has been a reminder of the
words of a former President of the United States. Reflecting
back through several of his speeches, it serves as a warning and a source of
great encouragement to be reminded of his words.
“It is fashionable in some circles to believe that
no one in Government should encourage others to read the Bible because
it would violate the constitutional separation of Church and State
established by the fathers in the First Amend-ment. That Amendment
was not written to protect people and their laws from religious values — it was
written to protect those values from Government tyranny.“We’ll never find every answer, solve every problem, or heal every wound, but we can walk down that one path that we know provides real hope …… we must seek help from God, our Father and Provider. My experience in this Office of
President only deepens my belief held for many years — “Within the covers
of that single book — the Bible — are all the answers to all the
problems that face us today IF we would only read and believe!”
Be encouraged by this reminder, for, whether our
concerns be deep or simple, we can claim God’s loving promises for His
provision according to His Word.
