On Independence Day and every day remind us of all those who have sacrificed for our freedom, following the example of your Son, Jesus Christ. Let us not take our freedom, both physical and spiritual, for granted. May we always remember that our freedom was purchased with a very high price. Our freedom, physical and spiritual, cost others their very lives.
In Jesus’ name we pray,
Amen and Amen
