It's the fourth of July

Postby Furen » Mon Jul 04, 2011 5:49 am

So I guess I should wish everyone a happy Independence day!
And this I pray, that your love would abound still, more and more with real knowledge and all discernment. Be prepared to preach the gospel at a moment's notice. Do you know the gospel well enough to do so yourself? Be ready.

My fam has sparkers ready, and the grill... was stolen, but we'll broil the burgers in the oven in the spirit of grilling!

Happy 4th everyone ^___^

We're spending the day with family. Then dad is going to grill later. They're calling for storms later here to, so fireworks might not work out. We were planning on watching them from our sailboat, but water and lightening don't generally mix well : P

Happy 4th of July, everyone!

I went to "Freedom Fest" on Saturday. My town's annual 4th of July celebration. :sweat:

I wasn't sure what I was going to do today, now I know exactly what I'll be watching. Thank you.

Happy Independence Day to all my other fellow Americans and even moreso to any members, and the families of members, of our great nation's armed forces. Your daily sacrifices that go beyond that which the average American could possibly understand. I salute you. God bless America.

Also, thanks to Ren for ironically posting this thread. XD

We've got the cul-de-sac barbeque going! Fireworks, food, and fellowship!
"And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus." Ephesians 2:1-7

Well I WAS gonna cook out some hot dogs and burgers on the grill, but then a severe thunderstorm had to roll in and cancel those plans. So we went out to a local Italian place for dinner. :\ And it's still raining, and the rain is supposed to last all night, meaning no chance of fireworks either.

*shrugs* I didn't celebrate this year, no grilling or fireworks, although we did go out for a bit of an afternoon picnic and walk through a woodsy park trail. I'm not feeling much patriotism as I have in years past - I am certainly grateful for the freedoms that I enjoy, but I'm apathetic at best; although I'm glad to see so many of you enjoyed the day of America's Independence. ^_^

WELL~! A stray dog ended up wandering into our yard- no collar, no tags, nothing, and a bad hip to boot. Since mom and my bro have major allergies, we had to run out and buy a collar and borrow a chain (at 10 at night!) from our neighbors, and have him tied up outside so that the police can get him in the morning (they didn't have a way to take him tonight. We called and someone came over and told us). He's in pretty rough shape, but also seems to have only been lost recently, so we're hoping they'll find the family soon.
