“Americans, I am the sacred emblem of your country. I symbolize your birthright, your heritage of liberty purchased with blood and sorrow.

I am your title deed of freedom, which is yours to enjoy and hold in trust for posterity.

If you fail to keep this sacred trust inviolate, if I am nullified and destroyed, you and your children will become slaves to dictators and despots.

Eternal vigilance is your price of freedom.
... “

We must not allow ‘the tyranny of the minority’ that is quickly becoming the majority; to destroy our iodeals, laws, freedom, way of life, etc.

After the death of an idea, principle, nation, people, it is too late to say, we weren’t watching ... it can not be resurrected in this life.

Pray for America and we ready to come to her aid now. It is vital we elect new people into ur government that stop this mad house spending , etc.

Are we ready to do what it takes?

God bless us in our day, in Jesus name, amen.

To not run in the race for life is to play into or be deceived by satan once again? He comes in many forms, deceiving, telling lies, stealing and killing, destroying. Do not be one with those that walk the broad way to destruction. He is a wily one, the devil.

Turn to the LORD, hold on to His hand. The one who calls us ‘friend’ is ever at the side of His friends.

Do you know Him? He calls us to Himself. Come.

Tell me the old, old, story of Jesus and His love ...

There is sweetness in the hymns of old, whether praise, love, thanksgiving ... that songs today lack and perhaps have lost. MO

___________________________________________________________

“Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

T’was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
‘Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

When we’ve been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun.
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’ve first begun.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.”

Hallelujah!!! Amen.

Happy Flag Day, everyone.
I love seeing Old Glory so proudly displayed here.

Thank you, Billie, for sending me the link to the Finest Thread.
I spent some time last night re-reading that thread from 2005.
What wonderful memories ...
I really enjoyed reading posts by some who are no longer with us ....
LadyX and T'wit to name a couple.
There are others that are very scarce ... I enjoyed seeing The Thin Man again.
And Dutchess! :)

I hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful Monday.
May our flag fly high and proud today and everyday.
