God has Blessed America

Tomorrow is the 4th of July! As I am able to watch the fireworks from the windows of my home, I have to be extremely grateful that the good Lord blessed me with my birth within this country at this time in history.

Even with the problems we are experiencing with our national economy, we are still the luckiest people on this earth. I believe that too often, our rich and fruitful homeland is too frequently undervalued by her own people. Not only do we have a vast choice in the type of climate and typography where we choose to set up a domicile, our food choices are plentiful, we have a great medical community and we have plenty of people who choose to share via hundreds of charitable means that help others in greater need. Our educational opportunities are outstanding for anyone choosing to seek them out. And our wonderfully brave children, spouses, sisters and brothers are fighting overseas at this very moment to attempt to not only preserve our great way of life, but to provide for others the opportunity to enjoy the same freedoms and blessings that we sometimes so callously take for granted.

Could you possibly imagine being the child of a third world county, where drought and famine dictate how you lived your life, in total survival mode?

God has blessed America, may we remember to give Him thanks!

Until next time........
