Today is April 15th. Happy “Tax Day” everyone. Did you know that our founding fathers never intended for us to pay income tax? It’s true but here we are sending another check to Uncle Sam yet I wonder if we also take time to pray for our country when we write out the check? I am afraid that I am usually spending too much…
