—U. S National Motto
Only since the year 1956 has
this famous motto appeared on
all paper money and coins is-
sued by the United States.
The motto first appeared on
some U. S. coins in the year
1864. A Ridleyville, Pa., min-
ister penned these words to the
Secretary of the Treasury, in
the wake of demoralizing
Union defeats on the Battle-
field in the year 1861: "From
my heart I have felt our na-
tional shame in disowning God
as not the least of our present
national disasters."
Today, this motto appears
on all U. S. monies, yet per-
haps we need more than ever
to reaffirm our trust and faith
in God and to ask for guidance
and direction in these trying
times.
Our need for God in this
modern world is greater than
it ever hr~, ho~>n. Today, more
than ever, Christianity is the
hope of the world.
