Manage episode 333719208 series 2911819
The Declaration of Independence was 246 years old on July 4th, just a few days ago. The men who wrote it gave us not only a magnificent political document, they showed the courage of people desperate for liberty. We must never take their sacrifice for granted, nor forget that the fight against tyranny is never over; it requires the courage of each successive generation to preserve the liberty they won for us. They relied on the providence and guidance of God, and so must we. We must also understand how precious life is - from conception onward. And what is this liberty for which they risked so much? Far from being the license to do as we will, it is the freedom to follow the will of God. Finally, we will never find happiness if we pursue it for ourselves alone. Happiness is found only by losing ourselves in compassion for others.
