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."

Let Go & Let God



Do you feel like you’ve been playing a game of tug & war with things that you know you should have released over to Him, but for some reason you are still holding onto them?
I am sure you have heard the saying, Let Go & Let God.  It’s really just that simple.  You have to come to a place where you are tired of struggling and are so desperate to give it all to Him, not holding back on anything.  All or none!  There is no in between.  You’ve held onto it long enough.  Now is the time to Let Go & Let God!

Let go of the pride, girlfriend, career, choices you’ve made, or climbing the corporate ladder.  Release it all to Him- He wants to take ahold of you & point you in the right direction.   Lay it down at His feet!   He is so ready to take the load from you.   Jesus is saying to you right now “Come to me, all who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28 (GW)

When you Let Go & Let God that’s when we can finally  “..run straight toward the goal to win the prize that God’s heavenly call offers in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:14 (GW)
