Description | "Humble yourselves before the LORD, and he will lift you up ." ~ James 4:10 General Washington carried with him, in his fie ld notebook, twenty-four pages of personal prayers he had handwritten. The following is his prayer for the United States of America: "Almighty God, we make our earnest prayer that Thou wilt keep the United States in Thy Holy protection; and Thou wilt incline the hearts of the citizens to c ultivate a spirit of brotherly affection and love for one another, particu larly for their brethren who have served in the field. And finally that Tho u wilt most graciously be pleased to dispose us all to do justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that charity, humility, and pacific temper of mind which were the characteristics of the Divine Author of our blessed religion, and without a humble imitation of whose example in these things we can never hope to be a happy nation. Grant our supplication, we beseech Thee, through Jesus Christ our LORD. Amen." |
