Author of Liberty

July 4th has come and gone.

My prayer is that it remains in our hearts until NEXT July 4th!

It has become customary to display our flags only on very special occasions. Every day should be a special occasion as far as our freedom is concerned. We sing our patriotic songs once a year at a church service. Why has the love for our country become so casual? What would it take for us to regain a passionate love for our country?

The last verse of "My Country, Tis of Thee" is the one that should be remembered:


Our fathers' God, to Thee, author of liberty, to Thee we sing: Long may our land be bright with freedom's holy light; Protect us by Thy might, great God, our King!

I ask you, "What would it take to make our nation a priority in your individual life? Not "THE" priority...just "A" priority?

"Men must be governed by God or they will be ruled by tyrants." -- William Penn

Have a great week and I pray peace to your household!
