Happy Fourth of July, New Hopians!
We are so blessed to be able to live in the USA 🇺🇸
Are we perfect? Not in the least. Do we have issues we need to overcome? Absolutely. However, we live in a country that allows us to voice our opinions and offers the ability to get better on a consistent basis.
Today, we want to encourage you to PRAY for our leaders... ALL of them. Not just the ones you agree with. Not just the ones who agree with you. Jesus died for EVERYONE... we must therefore have the humility to lift up all of our leaders in prayer. Pray that we, as a nation, may find Jesus and find hope even through the darkest of times.
And never take these freedoms we have for granted. There are billions of people around the globe who wish every day they could live the lives we get to live.
So today... take a moment and say, "Thank You." Thank God for the very blessing that you have to live in a country where FREEDOM still reigns supreme. And thank God for our struggles... For without our struggles we would cease to understand our need for God working among us.
May God continue to shed His grace on us...
Happy Fourth of July!
