I was inspired by all the fb gratitude toward our military! One line I saw on my friend's wall has stuck with me..."Today we speak up, but everyday we are thankful."
Sometimes it seems we get caught up in our own little worlds and neglect to be mindful of the sacrifice of those past, present and future working, giving it all, letting go of much in order to grab hold of freedom for Americans. But truly, in our living and enjoying we are doing what those fighting would want us to do. We are receiving the gift they've given us.
With our freedom feeling shaky these days, I've been resting in an even greater, more secure freedom, claimed by even greater sacrifice. To be wrapped in the stripes of Christ is to be wrapped in true freedom!
My heart swells with gratitude not only for those who serve(d) our country, but for the life Christ bought for me!
<<< remember the stripes granting your freedom >>>
Thank you to those standing for our freedom! God bless you!
God bless the USA!
