Each year we celebrate the day that we as a nation declared our independence from Great Britain. Each year we are so thankful for the brave men who risked their lives and wealth to give us the independence that so many of us take for granted.
It is at this time each year that I am reminded of another independence day. The day that I was made free from Sin. The day that I put my trust in Christ as Saviour and gained my independence from Sin, and was made free!
Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
Romans 6:18
This day ought to be a day of thanksgiving, for our God and His great gift! For our Nation, our godly founding fathers, and for our military who each day risk their lives to secure our freedoms.
This day ought to cause us to reflect on how great of a Nation we have and GREAT of a Saviour we have. This day ought to cause us to pray for those in leadership in our nation, from our President on down.
Lets use independence day as not only a day to celebrate our nation but as a day to set souls free!
We ought to live today as better Christians because we love God and realize that we are FREE FROM SIN!
