Are you patriotic? What does being patriotic mean to you?
Patriotic? Like loyal, devoted in support of the country where I live? That kind of attitude is something I have never thought about.
I like where I live. I know no other country. It has good and bad features. It is not perfect. I enjoy the freedom I have to worship my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and I do not take it for granted. Many other Christians in other parts of the world do not have this privilege, and I thank God daily for this freedom I have.
I enjoy the ability to go to sleep without fear and wake up safe to face the day.
But this country I live in is made up of people and people make the country. Politicians rule and many things they do I do not agree with. Some laws are good and some not so good, but this is where the Lord wants me to be, and for the moment, I will trust him.
I know I am blessed, and I do not take that lightly.
