Independance "Freedom From Rule By Another"

How do you celebrate July 4th?
Family outing, barbecue and fireworks?
I suppose most of us have these same
kind of traditions.


But this year, seems different, somehow.
July 4th, l776.... was Independence Day.
I've been thinking about the word
"independence"......
It means:
"freedom from rule by another."
After signing the
Declaration of Independence,
John Adams in letter to Abigail wrote these words:
"It ought to be commemorated as the
day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion
to God Almighty."

My how we've drifted as a people.....
I shudder to think of what lies in the
future being led by one who boast
"America is no longer a Christian nation!"

We the people,
this July 4th,
just might want to get on our
knees and began praying in earnest for God
to encourage our nation
to turn back to Him for guidance. Dee Dee
