Fireworks!











I know, I know, I'm a day early for Independence Day, but this celebration took place last weekend in Texas!
As my friend Jennifer, who just returned a year ago from serving as a missionary in Germany for 3 years, and I sang "God Bless America" together, it was a moment of sweet revelation of how the Lord brought us both "home" to the U.S. to declare His goodness once again in the land that we love!
For me, this evening and the music was especially poignant as I have come "home" to a nation whose freedoms are slowly being whittled away, so the reality that our freedom is in Christ alone is an even more profound Truth than it ever was before.
