“I sought for the greatness and genius of America in her commodious harbors and her ample rivers, and it was not there; in her fertile fields and boundless prairies, and it was not there; in her rich mines and her vast world commerce, and it was not there. Not until I went to the churches of America and heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and power. America is great because she is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.” (Prophets, Principles and National Survival, compiled by Jerreld L. Newquist [Salt Lake City, Publishers Press, 1964], p. 60.)

 

It is so true. America became great and remains great because of its reliance on God to protect and preserve it as a free nation. We need to be very careful that we are fighting for our freedoms and building our relationship with God and His son, Jesus Christ, so we can continue to decieve that protection and preservation.
