Happy July 4th Everyone!!!

Thought a couple of quotes might be appropriate on this great day in our history:

“Why stand we here idle? Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!”

Patrick Henry - Speech in Virginia Convention March 1775

“I ran away from my masters. I wouldn’t have done it if I hadn’t heard those songs of liberty that saluted my ears and thrilled through my heart.”

-Jehu Grant, Former Slave, American Soldier, American Revolution

We had this speech in our church opposite Joshua on Wednesday.  Excellent reminders.  Patrick Henry is one of my heroes.
