PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN

Today is July 4th, 2022.  The day that we celebrate America. Our freedom, independence, and rights.

The red, white and blue along with the stars and stripes that grace, are so beautiful and have so much meaning.  The 13 stripes represent the original colonies.  The 50 stars represent the 50 states.  The red symbolizes hardiness and valor.  The white is symbolic of purity and innocence.  Vigilance, perseverance and justice are embodied in the blue.

Freedom is mentioned 31 times in the Bible.  Galatians 5:13 says, For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love to serve one another. 2 Corinthians 3:17 Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom

There are 34 verses referencing independence. These all go hand in hand.

As for me, I am proud to be an American and a Christian.
