Pledge of Allegiance of the United States

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."


In 1954, in response to the Communist threat of the times, President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words "under God," creating the 31-word pledge we say today. Today it reads:

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

Section 4 of the Flag Code states:

The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag: "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.", should be rendered by standing at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. When not in uniform men should remove any non-religious headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Persons in uniform should remain silent, face the flag, and render the military salute."

DAY 29- DAILY DEVOTION - JUNE 22, 2012

June 22



Love


I know its not Valentines Day, but God keeps speaking the word love to me today. So, I must be obedient & write about love. I was watching Joyce Meyer’s last night & she said, “You know why people don’t walk in love? It’s costly. It’s going to cost you something”


John 3:16, “For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life” God’s love for mankind cost Him his one and only son. Does your love for Christ, cost you something? It should!


A few years ago, I kept telling Bryan that I wanted to spend more time in Prayer and the Word but every time something would always come up. I will never forget the words Bryan spoke to me. He said, “Kathy, you make time for the things you want to do. Just like you make time to eat, brush your teeth, and sleep.” Are you making time for God or are you making excuses like I was? Let Him know that He is your everything- your one true love.


Let this song by Hillsong(Sing Your Love) be your prayer today as we love on Him with our worship:


It used to be darkness
Without you
I lived my life in blindness
But now I am found


And I’ll sing, sing I love you so
And I’ll sing
Because the world can’t take away
Your love


You found me in weakness
Broken
You came to me in kindness
And now I live


I’ll give my life for you Lord
For all you’ve done
