Happy Fourth of July.
Well, a few weeks ago, Hillary and David's mother asked me whether or not we were going to root for the U.S. team or Brazil and Argentina. Well, it made me think about my patriotism. When it comes to soccer, I think I'll swing south, but as for all other sports and things, I'm all for the United States of America. I love that I had to seriously think about this though.
Today at church, we sang patriotic songs for the hymns, which I enjoyed. It was fun to sing about the truth marching on because it is all over the world. Patriotism is more than for a country; it is for God; it is for truth. And this American country is where the gospel was restored. I love Argentina. I love studying and visiting the world. But I love the smell of fireworks, the salty air of the east coast, the cool breeze in the Tennessee trees, and the smell of campfire. These are the traditions of my homeland. Plus, jet-skiing and boating tomorrow.
God Bless the USA. And God bless the world. And God bless the people.
