Freedom

Happy Independence Day, America!  

Christmas is my favorite holiday but the Fourth of July is my close second favorite!  

I love fireworks and I love celebrating our country's freedom! 

Thanks be to God for that! 

 "Freedom is a gift, yet we find it difficult to accept, making compromises or preferring the status quo rather than trying to free ourselves from what oppresses us." Bl. Chiara Luce Badano 

God gave us free will. 

By this gift of free will we experience freedom.

 "Freedom consists not in doing what we like but in having the right to do what we ought." 

St. Pope John Paul II 

Freedom to choose the right thing! 

This is what true freedom feels like. 

Doing what is right and putting our trust in God. 

In God We Trust! 

"He who trusts in himself is lost. He who trusts in God can do all things." St. Alphonsus Liguori
