As we celebrated the birth of our Nation (the United States of America) this past weekend, I was in constant awe of how amazing and blessed we are as a country. We sometimes forget how lucky we are to be able to pray, worship, and go to church whenever we want to. We can say the name of the Lord without being afraid of going to jail. People in other nations don't get the same opportunities we have here.
Next time you pray, say God's name, worship, or go to church remember to pray for the people in persecuted nations around the world. Not only do they need our help but they also need our prayers and thoughts.
“You’re blessed when your commitment to God provokes persecution. The persecution drives you even deeper into God’s kingdom.” Matthew 5:10 (MSG)
