This a thank-you post!! Many years ago this country, the United States of America, declared it's independence! I am very grateful for those that have fought and still fight for our rights and freedom! Over the years since that day we have gained much, through many battles. Woman, minorities and more have gained the right to vote, to work and to live in this country.
Our country still has a military that is in place to protect and to make sure we still enjoy our freedoms. I have to say a thank-you to my ancestors, my father(deceased), my little brother, and my three sons, along with the many scores now and through the years that have joined the military and when doing so they are a part of ensuring that our country still can declare independence. THANK-YOU!!!!
We have many freedoms in this country, one of which I am using right now which is the freedom of free speech! We also have the right to bear arms and to protect ourselves! We have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. We also have the freedom of religion.
I truly believe that my God was in this nation when it was formed! He was there as the constitution was formed. He has been there as this country has been blessed for many years! He is still here as many have tried to push Him out of our schools and our country.
Our country needs to stand strong and keep God in our lives, schools and homes!!
First though He wants you! He sent His Son so that you might have independence where ever you might live! His Son willingly died on a cruel cross and rose again so that you might find new life in heaven! THANK-YOU!!!!!
Whether you live free, have many rights or live with none, true freedom can be found in the cross!
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance. Psalm 33:12 NIV
John 14:5-7
New International Version (NIV)
Jesus the Way to the Father
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truthand the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you really know me, you will know[a] my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
Excellent post. I so appreciate the last line, "...true freedom can be found in the cross." Blessings...
