Who we are………

I should have written this entry for Veteran’s Day, but I only received this video clip today. It is one of the most powerful things I’ve seen in a while. Before you click on this link, let me share this thought; We often ask ourselves, “who am I?” Only each of us, can answer that question for ourselves. This blog is very much about how we will continue to change what the answer is to that vital question. We are, who we are in relation to Him. The more Christ affects our lives, our thoughts, and our actions the more that changes the fundamental answer of who we are.

As a nation we are the sum total of who we are as a people. I believe, we are basically good,
I believe we care for others, I believe we are willing to make great sacrifices to help those that cannot help themselves. I believe we stand for right, justice, and compassion. I believe we expect the best from ourselves. I believe that the vast majority of us know there is a God and we want to know Him. I believe that even though America has made mistakes and done the wrong thing at times in our history, I believe that no nation on earth has given more, sacrificed more, and paid a dearer price for freedom that have Americans. I believe that as bad as things can be in our world, America has made things better than it would have been, without us. I believe America is worth defending, standing up for, and fighting for to sustain. I believe that in some things we have lost our way, but I also believe we can find our way back to where we belong. I believe because I want to believe, and because I’m not willing to give up on my country, who has never given up on me.

Please watch this video clip, and see if you agree.
