Happy Fourth of July! Today many of us will celebrate with cookouts, parades, and fireworks to celebrate our freedom. However, there is a reason we can celebrate freedom, and that is because of the many women and men who have fought or currently fighting to protect the freedoms of this great land.
Right now there seems to be a lot of dissension in our country, but the fact remains we have more rights as citizens than most countries. Why? Because of the brave men and women in the past and present who put their lives on the line on a daily basis to make our country safe and free.
My prayer is that we never take for granted all that we are afforded in living in this great nation. May we always be grateful for what we have and count our blessings. Share on XMay we always be grateful for what we have and count our blessings.
Will you join me in this prayer below and pray for our nation ? As citizens of the United States let us quit going to war with one another.
Let us use the power of God’s love and unity to fight against evil and wipe out anger, hatred, violence, and discrimination. We have the freedom to choose what our actions will be. Don’t let the gift of our freedom or the sacrifice of those fighting be wasted on those who live to inflict sorrow, pain, and grief. As a nation, we have to be better.
Dare to make a difference in your sphere of influence. Let Freedom Ring! May America Bless God!
