I hope you all take the time this Independence day to reflect on our great nation, yes I said GREAT nation, and the things that made and still make it great. We need to remember those that gave up and sacrificed everything including their lives to create this nation. In the words of one of my favorite patriotic songs, "who more than self their country loved." Look at how our lives have been blessed and enriched because of sacrifices of those brave men and women.
God truly had a hand in the birth of this nation, that can't be denied, we defeated the most powerful military in the world at that time. We beat all odds, overcame the obstacles and hardships and grew into the strongest nation in the world. We are going down the wrong path no doubt. People have forgotten what made us so great, people don't know or care about the founding fathers, people don't know or care about God, and people take their freedom for granted on a daily basis.
I pray we never forget, that we start appreciating the things we have. We need to love our country, love our liberties, and our freedoms. This still is (despite opposite views from our President) the greatest nation on earth. One nation, under God! Happy Independence Day everyone!
