This country has given out of her heart. Men and women have given from their hearts. I remember how after the 911 tragedy we looked at our country with eyes that saw both her imperfections and her beauty. They said that she was deep, beautiful, and worth keeping.

America is All That … and More

America, America, God shed His blood for Thee. Those specific words speak truth for her people. People risk their lives to come here. Not for the blessedness of goodness, but because of a flag that you can wave from shore to shore. America stands for goodness, for God, for liberty, for justice, for freedom for ALL.

America Stands for A Powerful Truth

As I get older, I remember more. It gives me pause. The values that make America unique are not the everyday stuff. It’s the value that causes one person to stand for another in battle. It makes a person strive to become more than they thought possible because they believe in others. It means that you give your right to yourself over to someone because they need it…and you know they need it.

America Brings Hope to Many

Let’s remember what the ideal America gives to the world. I listened to a young woman today. She escaped a land which is not free. Then I listened to two free people visiting a non-free country. They followed the rules verbatim. Not easy when you are used to freedom. However, they have no idea the harshness that some people experience.

America is a Home of The Brave

We will lose our beautiful country if we aren’t careful. America stands for many things. It is important that we speak of these things more than we harp on the others. We will lose an extremely valuable resource if this country no longer values the gifts that it has. I’m taking this opportunity to refresh your memory while also imploring you to quit complaining. America has fallen down, I know this is true. But she is not forsaken nor abandoned.

America is a Land of the Free

Most Americans love America. This land is as good as all its citizens. We must use our wisdom, health, goodness, and religious liberties to keep and enrich our land. No, it’s not perfect. Yes, it’s worth striving for. I think we’ve gotten scared, and I get that. But we must shake ourselves and wake up. Our voices must rise. We must say the truth, and then share it with others. We must.

God bless you.
