Today has been designated as the National Day of Prayer, and in my opinion, could not have come at a more appropriate time.  please visit this site to learn more on the history of this reverent day:

This designation almost did not happen this year.  Read more about this here:

There are events and ceremonies being held all over the country.  Here is a link outlining those in Nashville:

We live in a very delicate time.  Our country’s resolve has been tested, and once again prevailed.  Our nation’s leaders, our troops, and our citizens all need support through prayer that goodness overall shall continue to prevail.  Many sacrifices have been made, and many continued sacrifices will be required.  We cannot afford to “let our guard down now.”

Today, please take a moment from your busy day.  Offer a prayer for our country and its leaders.  Offer a prayer for the brave men and women that serve in our armed forces.  And most importantly, offer a prayer to comfort those families that have lost loved ones who died protecting the freedoms we all continue to enjoy.

And lastly, let us pray that these freedoms continue in this great Nation.

Amen.
