?Coincidence?

Today as Chris and I were on our way home from church we saw this magnificent creature hanging out in the trees of our farm. I love being in a place where I can see the symbol of this country. How many people can say that the see them where they live? Anyway, I thought that it was really cool to see him right after church, especially since it was Scout Sunday. We had the scouts preform flag ceremony, the primary said the pledge and even we had the national anthem playing as we exited the building. So it makes you think, "was it a coincidence ?"

I know that our country is going through a struggle, but I think even with all the junk that is going on in politics, it is fantastic to know that our country is still incredible for it's ability to allow us practice our religious freedom. And how today I was reminded of that freedom in church and as I was coming come. I hope this thought stays with me for the rest of the week, and that I will be able to look back and remember that I live in a great city, a great state, and a great nation.
