I sit in this 103 yr old house upon a small mountain overlooking a river and see Ole' Glory resting proudly on the mantle. I hear soft rain drops touch the ground and feel breezes find their way through these pine trees that have seen so much history. The Liberty that has been won for America was paid at a great price and we are on the brink of losing that freedom, shamefully, by our own faults. The cross of Jesus stands boldly, yet meekly, representing a real liberty that was paid once, for all but it can never be lost. Perhaps if we go back to the Cross we'll figure out how to secure the Red, White and Blue once again. Happy Independence Day America! May God shed His grace and mercy on thee.
