Letter to the President

Dear Mr. President,


My prayers are with you as you lead this country.  It is truly my heart's desire that you submit to the will of God in regards to how to best care for His many children within the U.S.  Having read your book, The Audacity of Hope, I have heard from your own voice that you have accepted Christ as your personal Savior; now I pray that you allow Him access to your life that you may lead effectively.  I may not share your opinion on most things; however, I am bound by the Word of God to lift you up constantly in prayer, and I do so with the assurance that the "fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."


There is one major issue that I believe you have missed God on, Mr. President.  It has to do with the most abhorrent evil present in our world today, both here in the United States and even around the world.  That evil that I am speaking of is Abortion.


I know that this has become a political issue, with each side militantly standing their ground.  I know that it is a loaded weapon in terms of politics and that many of your supports and members of your party are ardent supporters of what is erroneously termed "choice". 


My plea to you is that you would stand up for those that have no "choice"; those that have no other means to defend themselves.  Proverbs 6:16,17 tells us that one of the things that God hates are hands that shed innocent blood.  Mr. President, that innocent blood is smeared all over the hands of this country, and has been since 1973.


Above all else, Mr. President, I implore you to correct this horrific wrong that has already taken the lives of millions and millions of God's precious children.  If you lead, this nation will follow you.  If you take the initiative, then millions will rally to this cause, that is the power of the Presidency.


Mr. President, tonight you will be addressing the nation, may God be with you as you lay out your vision for this great country of ours.  I pray that your vision will include a way to stop the state-sanctioned murder of innocent children.  Let the doctor from West Philadelphia serve as an example of what the vile practice of abortion inevitably leads to.


May God bless you and keep you, may He make His face shine on you, may He lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.
