Prayer for our country
Originally published in the August 22, 1950 issue of The Christian Science Monitor
What are we doing for our country, whatever its name, wherever it may be? Not just the government, or the armed forces, or the atomic scientists, but all of us. What can we do?

We are not without the counsel of the great Nazarene. These are his words (Luke 21:9, 28):
“When ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified.… And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.” Shall we not hear him as our God-appointed commander-in-chief?
