Independence Day 2021

Independence Day 2021

Sunday, July 4th, is Independence Day 2021 in America.

My favorite thing to see?

All of the American flags in people’s front yards.

Do you have yours up yet?

The roadside fireworks stands are out there too.

Although they’re beautiful and fun to watch, you and I both know that Independence Day 2021 is not about the fireworks.

Independence Day 2021

No matter what happens politically in this country – we were founded as one nation under God and will, at least in many of our hearts, remain so forever.

From our family to yours –

Happy Independence Day America!

Flag Day 2021

Flag Day 2021

Flag Day 2021

Today, we as a nation are celebrating Flag Day 2021!

All across the United States, patriotic families are celebrating this special day in our history when the Stars and Stripes became our national flag by official proclamation.

Freedom and the American spirit – that’s the America I grew up in and will continue to remember and honor.

Sadly, the vitriol towards our great country has gotten a lot of press and national attention over the years.

In the long run, it doesn’t matter.

How could we expect anything else from those who hate our country?

No, this Flag Day will be celebrated because there are those of us here in America who won’t forget the importance of this national symbol of freedom and love of country.

Land Of The Free And Home Of The Brave

We are one nation under God.

Just the other day I found this beautiful tribute to our flag.

Here is “Freedom Song” performed by the United States Air Force Band.  

Enjoy!

Happy Flag Day 2021!

Veterans Day November 11th 2015

November 11th, 2015 is Veterans Day

Veterans DayGod bless our veterans! On this day, and every day, I say “thank you” to all who have served and continue to serve our country.

Without them, there is no Land of the Free and Home of the Brave.

I looked up the word “Bravery” in an online dictionary and it returned results such as, heroism, fearlessness, and boldness. I think those terms pretty accurately describe the attributes of the brave men and women in our armed forces.

How Are You Celebrating Veterans Day This Year?

Veterans deserve our respect. Whether it’s a spoken “thank you” said to a veteran who crosses your path or better yet, buying their meal, I know they’ll appreciate the show of patriotism. My husband and I have bought meals for people before at restaurants (anonymously) and it’s hard to put into words the wonderful feeling you get when you offer grace without expecting anything in return. I highly recommend it!

Blessing Our Military

If you’re looking for ideas how to bless the military, Operation Gratitude is here to help. You can choose from writing letters to creating unique craft projects. What a great way to use one of your spiritual gifts. Who wouldn’t want to put a smile on the face of a soldier?

Lord Keep Us Safe

I pray that God will bless our land and keep our country safe. This grace period we’re in won’t happen much longer if our political leaders continue to defy God. All we can do is continue to pray for a revival, vote for faith-based political leaders, and urge a reversal of the anti-God laws that are devastating our country. Seems like it’s all snowballing right now.

If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under. – Ronald Reagan
