"The day will be the most memorable in America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival...it ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade...bonfires and illuminations (fireworks) from one end of this continent to the other, from this day forward, forevermore!" JOHN ADAMS
My two oldest boys are with their youth group on a mission trip to New Orleans to help with the rebuilding down there. Please keep them in your prayers that they will remain safe and be a blessing to all they come in contact with.
Let's remember to continue to pray for our military and their familes...not just today but everyday. It's because of them that we can celebrate our freedom today and everyday!
Praying for our military and their families, especially the guys and gals deployed far from home.
Came home Sunday from NYC. So good to be back in GA and away from the hustle and bustle of NY. As much as I loved the conference week, there's no place like home!

ReplyDeleteI always think of it on Independence Day and Memorial Day.
Both our spiritual and physical freedom means sacrifice.
Praise God for those willing to pay the price

ReplyDeleteover my head.
My heart swells
with pride,
Even as my stomach
dips for those who died,
Giving me the freedom
that I now enjoy.
Thank you to the selfless
soldiers who gave all...
...for all.
Beautiful reminder, Pam.
