For Those Who Served,

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."


Now a days teenagers think they are to cool to say the Pledge of Allegiance. The Pledge of Allegiance clearly states "One nation under God." It does not say one person under God. Many people served for this country knowing they were probably not going to make it back home to their mothers, fathers, wives, husbands, or children. They did it to bring us together, but while they are serving for us to be united, we just grow apart. They are risking their lives for us because they want us to be safe while hanging out or getting an education, but to be honest why should they risk their lives if during a family dinner we don't even talk. Girls are on facebook, twitter, instagram, tumbler just posting pictures of themselves half naked so that older perverted men can see them.Technology here and there. It's just running our lives. If that is all we want our freedom for, then why send people off to fight for us? We are truly blessed for the heroes we have. The ones that are willing to sacrifice everything for us. When they come home some dont even go a week without taking their own lives away from all the traumatic experience they have been through. So every time you see the flag just remember they served with no regrets because you are worth the sacrifices not technology. Thank you for those who served for this country.



Lord please bring all the troops back home safe and sound and may He bless all those military families whos members couldn't make it. In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
