The Greatest Gift That I Can Give to You
3 March 2008 The Greatest Gift That I Can Give to You: We have one woman to thank for that, while we sat back and let it happened. Her name was Madalyn Murray O'Hair. She was an atheist that didn't want her sons to be forced to pray. Ms. O'Hair felt that was going against their constructional rights. I guess that's why I wasn't surprised when I saw her story on American Justice\ Crime Stories. Ms. O'Hair, her son who was now grown and her granddaughter by another son had been killed by a man who happened to have worked as an office manager in their atheist organization one year prior. He kidnapped them and held them in a hotel room while he made her son withdraw all of their money from their business account. They said it was over seven hundred thousand dollars. I often wonder if she called on God as she and her family sat tied up, when knowing that this man was going to kill them. I wonder while they were feeling helpless did they also feel hopeless without God being in their lives. I found myself feeling sad for them and then it came to me that they had fulfilled their destiny and the price they paid was high. I've always felt what Ms. O'Hair did was wrong and now I want to try to set the record straight by having prayer put back into our public schools. Prayer is a reminder to us that no matter who we are, where we are, or what we are doing, there is someone far greater than ourselves that we have to answer to. Once prayer was taken out of our public schools, our children were placed in danger. Weapons started showing up in their lockers. The next thing we knew our children started killing their teachers and their classmates. For those who weren't killed, their lives were ruined and once again they had fulfilled their destiny and the price they paid was high. Our government is now removing everything that has God's name in or on it. This is their way of separating church from state. Then our government and our people were attacked by another country. They highjacked a few of our planes and flew two of them into two of our tallest buildings in one of our busiest cities. They were government buildings and they were full of men, women and children of all nationalities and most of them were killed on that dreadful day. When horrible things happen like attacking another country, it is the innocent people who pay for our mistakes and once again they had fulfilled their destiny and the price they paid was high. There is no real separation of church and state. Our forefathers knew this, that's why they put God's name in and on everything that they could, not thinking that one day we would have it removed. The Bible is the book of our history and it is also the book of our laws. It teaches us to put God first, to put Him in all that we do and to love Him with all of our hearts. It also teaches us that our God is a jealous God. What did we think He would do when we started removing His name? We haven't fulfilled our destiny as of yet, so I wonder, will there be a high price for us to pay? Toni Burrough Toni Burrough @ 11:30 | Permanent link
