I am an American, and lately America is turning back to The LORD, in this time of war, and tradgidy.
But just a few years ago there was talk of Removing The LORD from America.
Removing the words ''one nation under God'' from the pledge of aliegence.
Removing the words ''In God we trust'' from our currency.
And many other things.
So i ask.Are you only by the LORD's side in your times of need?Or do you serve The LORD, and thank Him for all He has given you, at all times?

I serve Him only in my time of need.
I need Him every second of every day of my life. Without Him, I can do nothing. With Him, I can do all things.

Are we talking about the lord or just a dead heretic and blasphemer? The country should be ruled by rationality not by superstition. Worship of the Lord is compatible with that but worship of JbJ is not. It's polythestic paganism. As for the money, perhaps it ought to say "in God we trust. Everybody else pays cash"!

Me and 5 billion other people don't "serve the lord," as you put it. The USA is mostly christian, but has the highest crime rate of any nation in the world. So what good is christianity? Japan and other non-Christian nations have much less crime. By the way, "The Lord" is much like "The King." Both like to be SERVED fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches.

I thank god all the time...
Life is too short not to give anything back and America has turned back to God given all the body bags coming home with the sons of innocence who died for nothing in a war torn country ripped apart by the need for cornering the worlds oil market, you have the Antichrist In the white house!
Tell me how does it feel to pay your taxes to an asshole who doesn't care a damn about all the innocent life he has taken and yet he claims to be a christian...
Gods on his way and hes pissed off watch out America your gonna get your *** burnt!

I have no Lord.
I have read the novel he appears in but, while finding it a nice, romantic theory that one God exists & that the Bible is factual, in my opinion it is just a good work of fiction.
I am the only person who shapes my life & copes with the good & bad things that happen.
If God existed he would never have allowed the world to get so overpopulated or allow the type of genocide that has been happening for generations.

I rejoice that I live in a country that has Charles Darwin on it's bank notes.
What a shame that America, founded by Atheists as a secular nation, with seperation of Church and State written into it's inspiring constitution, should be backsliding into ignorance and turning into a theocracy. Dumbfuckistan indeed!

God does not need me, or you to serve Him anything, He is God, but for reasons i will never be able to fathom but for the fact that we are His children, created by Him, so He has the blueprints for us and knows whats best for us, we should definitley listen to Him, obey Him, and accept His fatherly love, through His Son, He knows best after all! If your car breaks you go to a mechanic, but if your spirit is broken through the virus of sin you go to the one who made you, who made a way for you, and loves you, but to serve God is to serve yourself as he as the answer for your needs, but stupid He is not, and if the only time you keep Him in mind is when you are in the ****, then are you worthy of how far He went for us on the cross? Just a thought.

I follow Him constantly. I'm English so all the stuff about the country being 'in God we trust' doesn't count but definately I put on my new mind and serve Jesus when He needs me. The biggest challenge is to 'give thanks to the Lord at all times,' even when things are tough, because we know that doing that brings us blessings later but I still want to do it my way! He is currently bringing me safely through one of the most challenging times of my life (cheating hubby) but I haven't stopped singing praises.

Worshipping God is not a bargain.
If you return to Him after some moments of forgetness, this is a good action of repentance.
Yes, I fully agree with you that we should always repentantly and thankfully serve the One True God.

I fully agree with monkeyface.
It is all theory anyway, I have no intention of wasting my life on a lost cause to find it is all tosh when I am dead.
I feel anyone who needs the "lord", is weak and of mediocre intellegence, unable to think for themselves
