Political Quotes

“I thank my friends and colleagues for participating in this year's Special Order on Faith Month. None of us knows what tomorrow holds, but we can rest assured that our sovereign God is watching over our Nation. America has endured nearly 250 years, and I believe the secret to our greatness has been our faith in God. Through vicious wars, economic hardships, and conflicts that threaten to rip us apart, God has graciously preserved the United States of America as a shining city on a hill. As 2 Chronicles 7:14 says: ``If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and I will forgive their sin and heal their land.'' If we truly humble ourselves, pray, repent, and turn from our sins, I believe that God will hear our prayers, forgive us, and heal our deeply divided land. We are never beyond the reach of His grace. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. ____________________”
