In honor of Independence Day and our forbears who brought us to this glorious moment, the Souls & Liberty staff decided to make the news today all about Independence Day! Below is an eclectic selection of prayerful and patriotic entries hand-picked for your perusal and, time permitting, in-between civic parades and family BBQ's, some patriotic readings and videos for you to enjoy. However you celebrate Independence Day, please make time to pray with us for our nation, the people, especially the children, remembering 2 Chronicles 7:14: "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land." As we pray, we will remember on this 4th of July the debt of gratitude we owe the American founders who risked and gave everything. We will remember them and recite their famous words: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness …” We will also remember the words of one of America's greatest Churchmen, Venerable Fulton J. Sheen, who concisely advised us: "When we lose God, we lose County." Many blessings to you and yours on the 250th Birthday of The United States of America. P.S. Feel free to submit readings, movies, posts, or recipes that you might like to share with others in the Comments section at the bottom of the page.
