George Washington Proclamation - Thanksgiving

"Whereas, it is the duty of all nation to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor; Whereas, Both the houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me "to recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness"! Now, therefore, I do recommend next, to be devoted by the people of the states to the service of that great and glorious being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be, that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country. President George Washington 1789 This is front Jesse Duplantis magazine for November. I could not resist placing this on my blog. People here in the United States forgets what President Washington has done for this country. It was founded on the belief of the Bible, the book that God had written.
