Thank You Troops and Veterans!

2011 Christmas Lights- Thank You Troops and Veterans! Thanks for Your Votes!

(Please turn off music button on sidebar)

 I must admit that while watching this video it brought tears to my eyes. Being a Vietnam veteran in the U.S. Navy stationed aboard the aircraft carrier USS Coral Sea (CVA-43), I was and still am PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN.

I want to thank the Mosey Creek light Display in the Southwood Community of Mosey Creek Lane, Tallahassee, Florida, for this wonderful tribute to our military men, women and veterans during this Christmas Season. God bless you.

Give Honor to our Veterans!

It is the VETERAN,

not the preacher,

who has given us freedom of religion.

Have a Safe Memorial Day Week-End

Happy Independence Day!

Jesus on the 4th of July

We gather ‘round to celebrate

On Independence Day

Pay homage to our country

As the children run and play.

With barbecues and picnics

And fireworks in the air

The flag we own is proudly flown

To show how much we care.

The stars and stripes spell freedom

She waves upon the breeze

While bursts of colors can be seen

Above the towering trees.

This is all quite wonderful

We revel in delight

But God above in divine love

Has brought this day to light.

With just a stroke of liberty

A touch of His great hand

He gave democracy to us

And helped this country stand.

The stripes upon our stately flag

Were touched by His sweet grace

Each star of white that shines so bright

Reflects His loving face.

So as you turn to face the flag

For battles that were fought

Be filled with pride for those who died

And freedoms that were bought.

But don’t forget to thank the One

That gives the bright display

The reason why we paint the sky

On Independence Day

Things to Remember on Memorial Day

It is the VETERAN,

not the preacher,

who has given us freedom of religion.

It is the VETERAN,

not the reporter,

who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the VETERAN,

not the poet,

who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the VETERAN,

not the campus organizer,

who has given us freedom to assemble.

It is the VETERAN,

not the lawyer,

who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the VETERAN,

not the politician,

who has given us the right to vote.

It is the VETERAN,
who salutes the Flag,

It is the VETERAN,

who serves under the Flag,

ETERNAL REST GRANT THEM O LORD,
 AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON THEM.

We can be very proud of our young men and women in the military service no matter where they serve.

Father God let us always remember these young men and women who serve our county so that we can be FREE. Heavenly Father, be with those families this Memorial Day weekend who's loved ones gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country. Lord, it is my prayer that You give all of these folks the peace and comfort that only You can bring. I pray this all in Jesus' name. Amen
