"America – Land That I Love” God Series

“America – land that I love”

Signed – “God”

July 4, 2010 – Today the United States is 234 years old.

"Remember Me"

Lately I have become concerned about the people I represent. I no

longer see the Pride in your eyes that I once seen when I traveled

down your streets in the Veterans Day parades and on the 4th of

July. The people that once saluted me and those that held their

hand over their heart as I passed now just look around to see what

others are doing.

Could it be that they don’t see me? This is what it must be, because

I haven’t changed. I am still the same flag that accompanied so many

of our countrymen as they defended this great country.

As I wave in the breeze I am waving for each and ever one of them.

I represent the people of this country and not the disappointment

you may have with our Government. I have never had a vote in anything.

I stand for the freedom that the people have given to this country.

You are the heroes, not the Government.

You are the ones that go to work each day and do what is necessary

to see that the children have clothes and shoes and plenty of food.

That is why I call you heroes. This is the spirit that I represent.

This is why I was created, as a constant reminder to the people of

American that with pride in our country and a strong belief in God

we can over come any obstacle that is put in our path. We are still

the greatest country in the world. WE ARE AMERICA.

So the next time you pass by me just give me a wink or allow a

glimmer of pride or just a simple wave to let all the soldiers that

have died so you can live free and I can fly free will know that their

sacrifice was not in vain.

THE MEANING OF THE COLORS IN THE FLAG – spoken by the flag.

My red stands for the blood that was shed for the freedom I represent. Yet, my red originated from the blood of Jesus who died and rose again for those who believe in Him and for whom the Pilgrims came to this country for religious freedom and for the freedom from tyrants who would not let them worship God except in a national denominational church. My people are now free to worship in the church of their

choice whether it be Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian, Calvary Chapel, Evangelical Free, Brethren, Episcopalian, Catholic, Vineyard or other denominations who believe in the One True God of the Bible. People here are even free to disbelieve or to doubt. All we ask in America is that the ones who do not believe in Jesus will not try to use the freedoms we give them to try to take away the freedoms of those of us who do believe in Jesus. Our Founders held church services in the Rotunda of the Capitol, in the treasury office, and in the offices of the Supreme Court. By 1867, the church in the Capitol had become the largest church in Washington, and the largest Protestant church in America. (from James Hutson, Chief of the Manuscript Division of the Library of Congress, Religion and the Founding of the American Republic, Washington, D.C., Library of Congress 1998). This, among many other historical writings and facts, is proof that the recent claims of a separation of church and state did not exist among the original intent

of our Founders.

"Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord." Psalm 33:12

My blue stands for heaven, the eternal dwelling place of those who go to be with the eternal, everlasting Father who created us. My blue reminds me that those who want to go to heaven must believe and put their trust and belief in God’s Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Obedience to the written message that God gave to them in His Holy Book, the Bible is the proof of my people’s faith in God.

My white reminds me that my motives must always remain pure, unselfish, without greed, & with arms outstretched to welcome all who long for freedom, justice, opportunity and equality under the law. My white reminds me that because I am the symbol of a Christian nation founded upon Christian principles and the law of God represented by God’s Ten Commandments that I am only pure and righteous because I was washed white in the blood of Jesus Christ, God’s Son, and Savior of all who trust in Him.

"Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people."
