"ThanksGiving"

Since Thanksgiving is upon us America, I thought what George Washington wrote in 1789 which he issued a Proclamation of a National Day of Thanksgiving in response to the request of Congress would be appropriate, to remind US AlL, just how Blessed We are America!

"Whereas it is the duty of All Nations to acknowledge the Providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor: and Whereas both Houses of Congess have by their joint committee requested me "to recommend and assign Thursday, the twenty-sixth day of November next, to be devoted by the people of the United States to the service  of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficient Author of all good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendening unto Him our sincere and humble thanks, for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of His Providence, which we experienced n the course and conclusion of the late war: for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have been able to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particulary the national one now instituted, for the civil and religious liberty which we are blessed and the means we have of aquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which He hath been pleased to confer upon us.

And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations, and beseech Him to pardon our National and other Teransgressions, to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and related duties properly and punctuality; to render our national government a blessing to all people, by constantly being a knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and generally to grant unto all Mankind such degree of temopral prosperity as He alone knows to be best."

Note: Let us Never, Ever Forget how the Lord of the Universe has so Blessed this nation, and we should always be humbly ever so grateful for His kindness to us, for which we don't deserve. We need now at this time to seek His face, and ask for His forgiveness, for we have turned away from Him, and have forgotten His Many Blessings for which He has bestowed upon us. If we (America) don't repent, and turn to Him now, we will be a Nation of people, who will be Undone!

Your Freedom

In 1789, George Washington wrote in his inauguration address this paragraph, however, & unfortunately it was never delievered. " Until the people of America shall lost all virtue: until they shall become totally insensible to the difference between Freedom and Slavery; until they have been reduced to such poverty of spirit as to be willing to sell the Pre-emminent blessing, the Birthright of a Freeman, for a mess of pottage; In short, until they have been found Incapable of governing themselves and ripe for a Master." Notice his proposition America?  1. Lost of Morality. 2 Not knowing the difference between Freedom & Slavery. 3. Being Spiritual Weak. 4. Willing to sell our Blessings from God for a mess of Pottage. 4. No ability to govern themselves (ourselves). ("Those who cannot Control themselves, are Inapt to Govern themselves)

Question: Have we become so Morally Depraved, not knowing the difference between Freedom & Slavery, (or regard for) and have become so spiritually weak, that we're willing to sell, or is it, (we have sold) our blessing ["the birthright of a Freeman for a mess of pottage"] unable to rightly govern ourselves, and now ripe for a Master? If this be true--"Only a Virtuous people are capable  of Freedom, as a nation becomes (more) Corrupt, and (more) vicious, they have need of Masters."
(B.Franklin) How frightening and horrible is this? Do you not know America, that our "God grants liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it." (D.W.)

Where are our True American Patriots, are you willing to take a stand for what our Founding Fathers gave us, (and our God who gave us Life, gave us Liberty." T.J) and give whatever it takes to make sure we continue to be a Free and Properous people, or will we give up and yield to tyranny? If so, make note America.  " If ye (you) love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude greater than the animating contest for Freedom, go home & leave us in peace. We ask not your council, nor your arms, croch down & lick the hand that feeds you, & may posterity forget that ye (you) were our countrymen.?" (Samuel Adams) Strong words you say, Yes, but how much do you value your freedeom, and your children's Freedom?? " All that is necessary for Evil to triumph is for good men to do--"Nothing." (Edmund Burke)

You think--Tomorrow, Tomorrow, I will do it Tomorrow! "Procrastination is my sin, it brings nothing but sorrow, I know I should stop it--in fact I will--"Tomorrow." I implore you America, we might not have a Tomorrow. To continue to be SILENT, may very well be to our Destruction and Ruin!!   "To sin by Silence when they should protest makes cowards of men." (A.L.)
Silence implies Consent! "In the end, we will remember not the words of our Enemies, but the Silence of our Friends." America, the beautiful Country for which I love, I will continue to take a stand for Righteousness, and be willing to sacrifice whatever it may take, so that posterity will have the same Freedom(s) that have been passed down to me from men of who courages, & boldly fought for and gave their lives, so I could Speak Freely, Worship Freely, Live Freely, how could I (we) Betray such a trust that has been gively to All Americans?? I still Believe In You America! God Bless America, and our God who gave us All we have!
