America Has Survived Great Challenges

America has survived wars, food lines, and the ruthless days of the “Old Wild West”.

We have made it through hurricanes, floods, fires, earthquakes, and natural disasters that challenge any society.

We have survived the “Great Depression”, the assassination of Presidents, the “Bay of Pigs” with Cuba, and the “Cold War” with the Soviet Union–along with fears of a nuclear attack.

We have almost overcome the iniquities of racism, if Democrat politicians would quit using it as a tool in their campaign arsenal in order to influence allegiance to their Party and separate people from the Republican Party.

Because it works so well, Alleged Racism Claims always come from Democrats pointing to Republicans, Conservatives, Tea Party Members, and anyone else they want to discredit. They would rather use race to influence situations in their favor than allow us to heal from past evils (see Despicable Human Beings and Tired of Being Called a Racist?). Racism is divisive, pits people against each other, and creates contention in our hearts instead of love and togetherness.

America Is Unique

We are a nation of many cultures, beliefs, and talents. It is this variety that makes Americans unique. However, we need to do better in uniting as “ONE NATION UNDER GOD” instead of sticking to oursleves.

In order to be ONE NATION UNDER GOD, we need to quit the divisiveness we have among us and the separation of cultures.  It is good to maintain our own culture but not at the exclusion of others.

We Need Each Other

How can we have a true American Spirit and be ONE NATION if we cannot take care of our own who are in need?

How can we have a genuine American Spirit when there are those among us that struggle but we don’t know about it because we don’t know what is going on in our own community?

Since my near death experience in July, 2010 I have an increased desire to do what I can to unite people instead of dividing us. How can we conquer the evils we live in when we try to do it alone? We need each other, and we need the strength and power that comes through unity and numbers.

The truth is, we have some scary days ahead of us, we can see the hand writing on the wall. We will really need each other in the future.

I want us to try to be more involved in our communities and know the needs of those we can help when we do it together. Please check out http://RdayConsulting.com to learn more about this topic. Also, see Community Spirit, Examples of Community Spirit, Become a Grove of Trees.

May we maintain the American Spirit that made this nation strong and admired by other nations is my prayer for America.

May we overcome our temptation to think of only ourselves and our own suffering and forget there are others who are suffering as well.

May we reach out to others and provide the services they need.

May we use our talents and skills to bless the lives of others within our community and the nation.

May we get a stronger backbone and stand up to those who want to destroy America, and stand up to those who espouse racism and divisiveness.
