This coming week we celebrate our country's independence. I am so proud to be an American I cannot find the words to express it.

I am also so very grateful to God that I am an American. I have lived in two foreign countries in my life, Iran and Japan. I have seen for myself the differences between the freedoms that we take for granted here and those that people of other countries are not blessed with.

We American women need especially to be grateful for all the blessings that God has bestowed upon us. For there are few places on this earth were our sisters are even viewed as more than possessions.

We have the distinct privilege of being able to speak up and be heard when it comes to how things will go in our homes, our communities, our states and our country. And as Christians we have an obligation to ourselves, our families, our nation, our world and our God to make our voices heard.

I encourage any and all of you, that may have been complacent in the past, to do your civic and moral duty by adding your voice to that of your brothers and sisters across this great nation. Only by uniting and stepping forward can we dam the tide of immorality that has inundated our country and infiltrated our homes.

Our children need you, my grandchildren need you, to protect and defend what remains of the inheritance that we have received and to recover that which we have lost to the enemy.

May God bless and keep each and every one of you over this holiday, may He make His light to shine upon you and May God Bless America!!
