Happy Independence Day Whether we believe it or not, whether social media paint different pictures, we still live in the most blessed country. Please ask numerous immigrants; most of us will tell us how America is a blessed land. So far, we are sustaining our wealth and prosperity with the grace of God. I thank those on the frontline for saving this country's mothers, fathers, and babies from the brutal practice of abortion. This movement will spread all over the world. But, at the same time, we must not overlook the evil ways that always have alternative plans to harm our children. We have to be INDEPENDENT.
