In appealing to voters of faith, President-elect Donald Trump vowed a religious revival in America, and now there is a quantifiable way to measure him on that vow: Sales of Bibles are booming.

  1. In the immoprtal words of Richard Milhous Nixon, “My fellow Americans, the long dark night for America is about to end.

    The time has come for us to leave the valley of despair and climb the mountain so that we may see the glory of the dawn—a new day for America, and a new dawn for peace and freedom in the world”.

  2. It sure as hell won’t be bidumb, the deep state and the democraps. They all hate God and good riddance after Jan. 20th but there will always be a few left afterwards. Hopefully and prayerfully, we are on the verge of a new Jesus revolution (that saved a lot of us including me back in the early and mid 70’s) and at least the 3rd or 4th great awakenings as in times past when we needed God the most like we do now.

  3. Unfortunately i currently live the valley of despair…

    My wife of 30 years of marriage is dying of an incurable condition similar, but more fatal, than parkinsons. She is only 52…

    However, we are fortunate enough to be true believers in Christ.

  4. Fullmetal 256, do not despair I too lost my wife of 35 and a half years to leukemia and finally it was pneumonia that she died of at the age of 56 at the end of Feb. 2013. This too shall pass, we are both Christians saved in the early 70’s by the Jesus revolution, myself a Protestant and she was from a large Catholic family. We met at church in 1976 and fell in love and married a year later when I was 24 and she had just turned 21. We had a good marriage although there were ups and downs like everyone and we had 3 kids, my son being the oldest and 2 daughters. I still miss her, but I know that she is safe in the loving arms of Jesus and waiting in Heaven for me. She was the greatest gift that I ever received from God other than my salvation and our 3 kids and now 5 grandkids and a soon to be adopted granddaughter. It’s not easy but I wish God’s blessing on you during your time of despair. May God bless you and keep you during this time and know that all will be well. It hasn’t been easy, but God’s mercy and grace has kept me alive and still faithful knowing that she was the best friend that I ever had, glory be to God.

  5. fullmetal256, I’m praying for you and your wife, that she be healed in the Name of Jesus and that you have peace that passes all understanding. I can only imagine the heartbreak you both are experiencing. Yet, also the determination you both have to trust the Lord through this test of faith.

    Please continue to petition the Lord for your wife’s complete healing. Yes, as a Christian go boldly before the Father’s throne with your request. Praise and Worship God for His goodness in the mist of the pain. Show the enemy your faith in the God is strong. Stand. Continue to stand.

    Be comforted in knowing God still can provide a miracle on your wife’s behalf. The love and devotion you have for your dear wife is surpassed infinitely by the Love God has for the both of you.

    Trust in the Lord.
    Be encouraged and God Bless!
