Psalm 119: 45-48
“I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out Your precepts. I will speak of Your statutes before kings and will not be put to shame, for I delight in Your commands because I love them. I reach out for Your commands, which I love, that I may meditate on Your decrees.”
An excerpt from The Declaration of Independence
We hold these truths to be self-evident;
that all men are created equal;
that they are endowed by their Creator
with certain inalienable rights;
that among these are life, liberty,
and the pursuit of happiness.For the support of this declaration;
with a firm reliance on the protection
of the Divine Providence,
we mutually pledge to each other, our lives,
our fortunes, and our sacred honor. ~ July 4, 1776
