This nation will be humbled
TRACY GHOLSTON Rusk

People wonder what has become of our country. Many things have happened like 9-11, Katrina, earthquakes and more. They don't realize these things are taking place because of us.

Our country was established under the principle of "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." We are to have equality in everything, including marriages, freedom of speech and religion. We have forgotten that the constitution was made to protect individual rights ordained by God. He gave our forefathers this country, and it started out as a Godly nation. It has gone downhill since. We have taken God out, thinking this country was great not because of God but because of us. We got proud and greedy. It has gotten so bad that our children are not allowed to pray publicly because it might offend someone. Long ago our nation had morals and the Ten Commandments. The majority of our country were Christians that tried to live by Biblical standards. So many professing Christians today do not actually live by Biblical standards, although they think they do. We have let things like gay marriages and pornography take over. Unfortunately, the Bible reveals these things are an abomination of Him.

Violence is bad because God is not here anymore.

The scripture says "He will humble a great nation that in the past had had His protection and blessing." Revelations talks of wars, famine and pestilence, which we are already seeing.

If our nation does not turn around and once again strive for God, things will only continue to get worse.
