Remembering Our Spiritual and Political Heritage
BIBLE
MEDITATION:
"That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works
of God, but keep His commandments." Psalm 78:7
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
On
June 8, 1845, Andrew Jackson said, "The Bible is the rock upon which our
Republic rests." Just a few years prior, in 1820, another of our forefathers,
Daniel Webster, said, "Let us not forget the religious character of our origin."
In the days of our founding fathers, people didn't quibble about the Bible's
importance. Our forefathers brought hither their high veneration for the
Christian religion, being journeyed in its light and labored in its hope. They
sought to incorporate, listen to, and infuse its influence through all their
institutions: civil, political, and literary.
ACTION POINT:
American
heritage is important, but so is your personal spiritual heritage as a believer
and as a family. Why not take some time this week to write down the spiritual
heritage of your family?
