Reagan’s Prayer for a New Year

Ronald Reagan’s National Day of Prayer thoughts in 1988.  Wonderful sentiment to start our new year, a year that may be one of the most tumultuous in the our history.

 

Let us join together, Americans all, throughout our land. Let us join together, in factories and farms, in homes and offices, in places of governance and places of worship, and in outposts everywhere that service men and women defend us. Let us, young and old, join together, as did the First Continental Congress, in the first step — humble, heartfelt prayer. Let us do so for the love of God and His great goodness, in search of His guidance and the grace of repentance, in seeking His blessings, His peace, and the resting of His kind and holy hands on ourselves, our Nation, our friends in the defense of freedom, and all mankind, now and always.

 

Happy New Year
