Recently the CEO of 'My Pillow' asked the country to look to God. He gave a beautiful and thought provoking plea during a press conference with the President of U.S.A. He is being condemned in the media. When did it become wrong to share your faith, and ask others to look towards their faith? We have come to a sad time in our world. This is a scary time with a virus that going around the world and doctors had no treatment for it, and there is no vaccine for it. People world wide are being asked to be 'safe at home'. This is causing economic hardships on many people as businesses are deemed 'non-essential' and asked to close. Governments are trying to keep up with the needs of the health care workers and their citizens. Families are coping and teaching their children at home since schools are closed. We can look at this time as a time to reconnect with our faith. If you haven't prayed in years, now is the time to take the time to do that. If you haven't read scriptures with your family, now is the time to start that as you plan out days together. There is nothing wrong with believing in prayer, and having faith. Though today's media would lead you to believe it isn't 'cool'. Let's step forward and put faith in the forefront again. I truly love seeing all of the churches that are doing live feeds on Facebook. It's so inspiring. Church isn't the building, religion and faith are anywhere two or more are gathered in His name. Whether that be in the sanctuary of one's home with the most important people in your world, your family; or whether it is via satellite on television, or via Facebook live posts. What gratitude we can have to be in this time, to have the technology to make it easy to maintain contact with church. We don't need to be physically in a building to be close to our Heavenly Father. Now is the time. Let us stand up for those who turn to television or social media to bear their own personal testimony of the miracle of prayer and faith. We have to be louder than those that try to shut it down. "I Shall Not Be Moved!"

The Lord is always there by our side and the Lord will always help us no matter how hard the life is. We are warriors who are strong and we should not cry no matter how heavy life is. We are strong and we are the future soldiers of this nation. We must always believe,we must always have that strong heart. A heart that is strong and we can always face life with a smile. We must not stop no matter how dark the road is for there will be light at the end.
