Forever Freedom

An unforgettable moment for me was standing in Flag Hall of the National Museum of American History in Washington DC  where “Old Glory” is on display.  Incredible!  I saw it first in 1974, then several times since.  The Flag is best known as bravely flying above Fort McHenry in Baltimore Harbor, enduring the night and inspiring Francis Scott Key to write the poem that later became our National Anthem.  It's less-than-mint condition is an American wonder.  It seemed to beckon me closer for its tales of freedom.  If only it could talk!

Does the Cross do this for you?  The cross talks: It speaks of One Whose pure, spotless blood spilled to become our Righteousness.  One Battle -- One Victory -- Forever Settled – Eternal Freedom.  As you celebrate American freedom today, rejoice evermore in Forever Freedom we know in Christ Jesus our Risen Savior and Eternal King of Glory!
