Amazing

It is amazing that the United States of America exist. From the beginning, there were divisive groups that sought to return to being ruled by England. Then came the Civil War, which was about States rights more than slavery. The list of uprisings and attempts to destroy this country is never ending. Yet, the country still stands.

This country was founded upon a foundation unlike any in history at the time and any in history today. It began as the great experiment. Ben Franklin said we are a republic just so long as we can keep it that way. Truth is that the key elements of a republic are quickly fading and those that would have us become socialist or communist seem to be gaining ground. Just open your eyes and look around.

There are those that would destroy today because of what may or may not have happened in the past. Reality is that men and women that did bad things rose above those things and created a government for people that wanted freedom more than anything. They united in faith and trusted their creator to guide them.

America is a long way from perfect, but it also a long way from the alternative governments. It’s amazing.

It's only because of "Amazing Grace."
