This week the USA will be celebrating its liberty. This is a wonderful time of fun for families as they enjoy cookouts and amazing displays of fireworks. July 4th is a great time to look back and see the hardships that the men and women had to overcome in those beginning days. Trials, threats and turmoil surrounded their lives as they looked to have freedom. We must remember and be thankful for the sacrifice on our behalf. A greater sacrifice has been made for us! This sacrifice took place on Calvary’s hill. The sacrifice of Jesus Christ has given freedom for all that believe! This freedom is not limited to a district, county, state or country. Nor is it maintained by the court systems of man! It has granted freedom for eternity from the penalty of sin and is maintained by the precious blood of Jesus Christ! What freedom we have been granted by our Lord and Savior! As we are celebrating freedom for America, take a minute to thank God for your freedom He has granted by His mercy and grace!
