What a great time of year! This is my favorite summer holiday for so many reasons. It's a great reason to get together with family and friends and cook out and watch fireworks, but more importantly it makes me appreciate the freedoms that we have here in America.
I am so aware of the fact that we enjoy freedoms that other countries don't. While I have been in radio for many years, doing Christian radio again for the last 4 years has shown me first hand what a powerful thing music can be in people's lives. Sometimes a song can reach someone hurting when they won't talk to anybody about it and feel very alone. I've seen God use a song to pull someone back from the brink many times. To know that someone's life was changed is so satisfying to me. I get to see God move every night. I am blessed. So this 4th of July I am celebrating the freedom's we enjoy in this country. Especially freedom of religion.
It's also a great excuse for me to make my mom's recipe for Nellie's West Texas Potato Salad! So happy 4th to you and if I could I'd give you a big spoonful of potato salad!
Blessings,
Jami
