Love Her Still

Life happens and never asks for our permission. There are situations that are relentless in their mission to test and try us, often to the breaking point. They test our will, our resolve, our faith, and our love. When you pledge allegiance to the USA flag, and your fellow countryman legally burns it right before your tearing eyes, do you LOVE HER STILL? When your fellow American changes the meanings of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, making laws that point in every which way but right; Do you LOVE HER STILL? When you see vast numbers of your fellow citizens, your amazing America, longing to remake and reinvent itself, seriously trying to fix what is, although not perfect, still works far better than most; when you see your blessed country crumbling from the inside, will you still defend her, fight for her, forgive her wrongs, and pray fervently for her? Will you LOVE HER STILL? With gushing tears rushing down your saddened face as you are forced to swallow America's bitter pills, again, I ask, will you LOVE HER STILL? 070323ps
