Resolution passes on day of prayer Recently the United States Congress passed a resolution proclaiming April 30 as a national day of humiliation, fasting and prayer. That resolution follows: ‘Whereas, it is the duty of nations, as well as of men to owe their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon, and to recognize the subline truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proved by aU history, that those nations are blessed whose God is Lord; and “Whereas, we know that we have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven; we have been preserved'these many years in peace and prosperity ; we have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no other nation has ever grown; but we have forgotten God; and “Whereas, we have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched us; and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own; and “Whereas, intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become to self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us; and “Whereas, we have made such an idol out of our pursuit of ‘national security* that we have forgotten that oily God can be the ultimate guardian of our true livelihood and safety; and “Whereas, we have failed to respond, personally and collectively, with sacrifice and uncompromised commitment to the unmet needs of our fellow man, both at home and abroad; as a people, we have become so absorbed with the selfish pursuits of pleasure and profit that we have blinded ourselves to God's standard of justice and righteousness for this society; and “Whereas, therefore behooves us to humble ourselves before Almighty God, to confess our national sins, and to pray for clemency and forgiveness; Now, therefore be it “Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress Assembled that the Congress hereby proclaims that April 30,1974 be a National Day of Humiliation, Fasting and Prayer; and calls upon the people of our nation to humble ourselves as we see fit, before our Creator to acknowledge our final dependence upon Him and to repent of our national sins.''
