Letter: Christian principles key to nation’s success

I am writing today to say how blessed and happy I am to be an American but how sad I am now to see our country being destroyed!

The foundation for our nation was built on the Word of God, loving others and keeping the Ten Commandments, but now there is so much hatred, killing and parents not taking responsibility for raising their families that we need to return to our Christian way of life and share God’s Love more!

The filth that is allowed on TV and in our society is a crime! Yes, it is wonderful to have the privilege of voting, but as Christians we need to do more to let others know that Jesus Christ did not die in vain; and He is still available today to change lives!

I also want to say that I received the nicest blessing on June 1. When I was waiting in line at the Kewpee restaurant, the lady ahead of me in line generously offered to pay for my sandwich, which was already prepared, so I could still get to my doctor’s appointment on time! That was a wonderful blessing, and I did make it on time. I will continue to share like she did!
