Keep Our Freedom

by

Tomorrow is our Independence Day. What does that mean to you?
To me it means….
…I am free to worship my Lord without Government interference,
…I can raise my kids to know and love the Lord without being threatened with them being taken from me.
…I can choose to have as many children as I am blessed with- no one tells me I can’t,
…My children can be taught at home, and taught in a way that is honoring to God,
…I can read my Bible out in the open, and no one can tell me not to.
…I can preach the Gospel of Christ and speak of Him openly.
…I can cast my vote for a leader who has faith in Jesus

All these things are wonderful things- and all of them have been threatened.
We need to be aware of the things going on around us, and take action against those who want to take our liberties away.
Being Christian parents, means watching out for the rights of our kids.
This means being aware of who stands for what, and making choices when we vote, based on our values.
Please take the next year to carefully investigate and consider who you will vote for in the upcoming election. Look into their value system, their voting records, and their experiences while in the offices they have already held.
This stuff says more than their words today say, and it means more too.
Keep our freedoms- don’t willingly give them up.
