   Conversion of Nineveh. The word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time: "Set out for the great city of Nineveh and announce to it the message that I will tell you." So Jonah made ready and went to Nineveh, according to the Lord's bidding. Now Nineveh was an enormously large city: it took three days to go through it. Jonah began his journey through the city, and had gone but a single day's walk announcing, "Forty days more and Nineveh shall be destroyed," when the people of Nineveh believed God; they proclaimed a fast and all of them, great and small, put on sackcloth.

   When the news reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, laid aside his robe, covered himself in sackcloth, and sat in the ashes. Then he had this proclaimed throughout Nineveh, by decree of the king and his nobles: "Neither man, nor beast, neither cattle, nor sheep, shall taste anything: they shall not eat, nor shall they drink water. Man and beast shall be covered with sackcloth and call loudly to God: every man shall turn from his evil way and from the violence he has in mind. Who knows, God may relent and forgive, and withhold his blazing wrath, so that we shall not perish." When God saw by their actions how they turned from their evil way, he repented of the evil that he had threatened to do to them; he did not carry it out .(Jonah Chapter 3)

    Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, heartfelt compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, and patience, forbearing one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other;  as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.  And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.  And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body.  And be thankful. And whatever you do, say or in action, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. (Colossians 3: 12-15, 17)

   The United States is at the Crossroad. Will it free fall into the pit or will our beloved country accept God's abundant mercy and become one with him once again?

"Eve was a thorn, wounding, bringing death to all; in Mary we see a rose, soothing everybody's hurts, giving the destiny of salvation back to all. Mary was a rose, white for maidenhood, red for love; white in body, red in soul; white in her seeking after virtue, red in treading down vice; white in cleansing her affections, red in mortifying her flesh; white in her love of God, red in compassion for her neighbor" -Saint Bernard of Clairvaux
