July is our month to
celebrate freedoms! We are blessed to live in God’s “Promised Land!” Even
amidst political and economic strife, or the wars at home and abroad – we are
STILL blessed with amazing freedoms - bought and paid for by “those who came
before us.” This month we celebrate both America’s freedom, and the coming of
the “blessed, honored pioneers” - who settled this harsh land seeking religious
freedom. Part of celebrating freedoms is using our agency wisely. Not every
country allows families to store food and supplies (they call it hoarding,) and
religious freedoms are threatened worldwide. Let us take advantage of the
privileges we have as we worship God with all our might, and store supplies to
care for our loved ones when those inevitable storms arrive! This month as we
set off fireworks, join in the races, or march in parades - we can remember the
freedom we all have to “Be Prepared!” When we pray, read the scriptures, bottle
some peaches, or fill buckets of wheat – we truly join in letting Freedom Ring!
May it ring and echo in each of your homes!
