We have exploited the poor and
called it the lottery.We have rewarded laziness and called
it welfare.
We have killed our unborn and called it choice.
We have neglected to discipline our children and called it
building self-esteem.
We have abused power and called it politics.
We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it
ambition.
We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and
called it freedom of expression.
We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers
and called it enlightenment.
We don't even sing "God Bless America " any more in our
schools.
We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.
PAUL HARVEY'S ON AIR PRAYER:
"Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your
forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, "Woe to
those who call evil good," but that is exactly what we have done. Search us, Oh God,
and know our hearts today!
Cleanse us from every sin and Set us free. Amen!"
Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio program,
"The Rest of the Story," and received a larger response to this program than any
other he has ever aired.
