The day began with an unexpected flyover.
I was not able to attend the Restoring Honor rally, but was fortunate to attend Glenn Beck's American Revival in Orlando earlier this year. At the revival, three essential values, Faith, Hope and Charity, were promoted as the vehicle that can help restore honor and revive our country. During the show, an impromptu group sing of "Amazing Grace" took place. At the Restoring Honor rally, a singing of the classic hymn was scheduled.
I originally set out to be one of the 130,000 folks who would watch the event on Facebook, but settled in to view it on CSPAN, who thankfully, broadcast the event live.
Three individuals were presented awards for Faith, Hope & Chairty and three military heroes were recognized, including "The Lone Survivor", Marcus Latrell. Speakers from Sarah Palin to Dr. Alveda King spoke to the hearts of those in earshot. A new Black Robed Regiment, a collection of preachers from various areas of Faith, was introduced.
The event closed with a special prayer, led by Dave Roever, which was particulary moving.
The problems facing our country are quite significant, and I agree with Beck that any chance at recovery must be grounded in Americans regaining their individual values and principles of Faith, Hope & Charity. Accomplishing that feat will no doubt lead to the country regaining it's proper footing on the path our founding fathers laid out for us.
May God Bless Glenn, his staff, and those who helped present this inspring program. In this time of choosing, may we all grab our stick and restore honor! With a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.
And yes, to all our Veterans, espcially our Vietnam Veterans, Welcome Home!
