God Bless America

         

Cannot believe it is finally June.  I have something very exciting happening at the end of June  which involves my family  which means the most to me and Lynn, my hubby.

We have been planning something for  a long time and now that it is finally June, I am all a twitter inside. But that aside, I will try to concentrate on today!!Actually  May  and Memorial Day ushered in a season of patriotic holidays  that stretch into  several weeks.  So  it is  fun to  raise the flag outside,  plant the red, white, and blue , and  really express  the   flame of love of country in the  heart.. no matter how things seem to be deteriorating in the  the Capitol,   what matters most is family, the church, and the heart of the home!  So we  continue to celebrate with joy and singing!

My pot of red white and blue  was a bit  beat down by the  unrelenting rains over the weekend,  but  the warmth of the sun has already  brought much of them back to    good health!

 Many of the blue blooms have been washed away,  but it, too, will recover!

My Shasta daisies will soon be a mass of glowing white and gold! 

The dragon wing begonias still smile their bright red glory in the aftermath of the storms.

And Old Glory is showing off her unfurled beauty. 

Inside this week we had a quiet moment of prayer and reflection after the horrific things that have happened in our land, but there is a resolve in the heart of many to  return our holdings and that of our descendants back to God and purpose in life to radiate His glory inHis land, the land that many gave the ultimate sacrifice to secure our freedoms and opportunities to worship the one true God .. the one to whom, we sing this song!
