July brings the summer heat
– but also well-loved celebrations for Country and State! Our Independence and
Pioneer Day celebrations always bring parades, fireworks, BBQ’s, watermelon,
and maybe homemade ice cream. We celebrate today, because of sacrifices from
the past! What are we doing with that gift of freedom? We have the freedom in
this country to Be Prepared! Some countries call food storage “hoarding,” and
it is illegal! But here in America we can set aside for a rainy day. We can
worship and be spiritually prepared as well. Our country’s founding fathers,
and our religion’s forefathers, would expect us to take advantage of this
promised land and the time in which we live! Let us not squander the freedoms
that are ours. We can honor those who came before us as we are prepared!
Preparedness truly IS a celebration of freedom!
