Political Quotes

“Today has been designated as the National Day of Prayer. Church and religious leaders all over the Nation have asked people to pray for their families, their friends, their Nation. I believe that prayer really does work. This Nation would be a much better place today if we had more people kneeling in prayer. Government simply cannot solve all of our problems, yet today we seem to have turned the Federal Government into some type of god. We are placing too much faith in men and laws and not enough faith in God, and in many social, personal and moral ways we are seeing almost a disintegration of our society. Mr. Speaker, we need to come together as a nation again, and we need to remember what the Bible tells us in Second Chronicles: If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear their cries from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and heal their land. How desperately, Mr. Speaker, our Nation needs to be healed today.”
