A very profound, happy 4th of July – America is worth preserving!

The Founding Fathers knew that it was absolutely worth fighting for America’s independence from tyrannical rule. Is America worth defending from further tyranny, or will our nation’s ideals fade away because everyone thought that someone else would take care of things? The answer is, yes, America is absolutely, without question, worth preserving at all cost!

You have to know that we are truly blessed to be living in America! Anyone griping for a better country to live in should, by all means, live in that country, make a comparison to what it was like living here in America, then make their decision.

Congratulations to all of us, we have made it this far along a rocky path to our 238th year of liberty as a nation. It’s up to us here and now to keep the feeling, the love, the idea, and the nation of America, alive and well, not just for us, but for many, many future generations to come. We are a part of America’s history, but we’re not the entire history book.

There is nothing superficial about having the privilege to say to one another, happy Independence Day! We must appreciate that there has been much bloodshed in this declaration of liberty for all. Brave men and women have died, and continue to die for you and me! Believe it!

A very profound, happy 4th of July 2013, and many, many more! “Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” for all (quoted from the U.S. Declaration of Independence)! – Jon Kennedy 

Being an American...

Go ahead and wear red, white and blue colors; display the U.S. flag in front of your home; wear a flag lapel pin; play patriotic music on your devices loudly, or your home sound system; recite the pledge of allegiance with your hand over your heart every morning, alone or with a group; have a deep love for your country; thank God that He blessed you with American citizenship. All of these things are good things. There is no reason to ever be ashamed of being an American.

Our nation has done wonderful things for other nations, in need, for many, many years. More than ever, it is very important that America survives all of the hardships it’s going through. We are the only democracy on earth that has proven over and over again, that it has always been the shining beacon of hope for the world when help is needed somewhere. The world would be a far lesser place without the United States of America. We all need to be caretakers and make sure that this never happens to such a great nation with such a great way of life!

Pray and contribute to see that America’s greatest days still remain ahead! – Jon Kennedy

The Battle of Gettysburg - 150 years ago

150 years ago, July 1st – 3rd, 1863, the Battle of Gettysburg was being fought between the divided Union (north) and Confederate (south) states and their ideologies. It was the battle that turned the tide of the Civil War, bringing eventual victory to the Union. This is a moment to reflect on what America must have had to endure at that time.

A big salute to all of the military men and women who have fought bravely and died for our great nation since its inception! God bless each and every one of them!

What a blessing for us to be able to proclaim, happy 4th of July! – Jon Kennedy

America is such a magnificent invention…

During the 4th of July holiday, it would be refreshing to hear patriotic music playing on every street corner in America. Not only during the holiday, but throughout the year as well. America is such a magnificent invention that it should be celebrated each and every day in some way.

None of us were alive during the revolution, and we can’t quite appreciate what it took for a few brave colonists to muster up the courage to break away from, England, and form a union of free-states. But knowing where we came from, and what we had to endure, is hopefully enough to understand that we do not wish to return to a state of tyranny ever again!

Freedom for all! Happy Independence Day 2013, number 238 and counting! – Jon Kennedy

Advance to greatness…

We are truly blessed as a civilization to have the mental capacity to learn, be inspired, and advance to greatness individually or as a whole, if we so choose. – Jon Kennedy

No one will have to tell you…

Whatever it is that you did with your life, you were either given no choice, influenced or inspired to do it at some point either recently, or long ago. For instance, how happy are you in your career? Is it unrewarding, or is your work so satisfying that it’s more like playtime for you every day?

Joy is extremely important for your well-being. If you find no joy in your work, but the benefits are great, is this reason enough to stay on your current path? Only you know what you are willing to endure and for how long. You have your reasons for staying if you so choose. But only you will be able to give yourself permission to move beyond your despicable career.

When you’re ready to make your life more exciting, no one will have to tell you to do it, because you know that you’re ready for positive change. You will transform from the person with the undesirable job, to the person who knows exactly what they want and imagines having a ball doing it. This is a great thing to experience, because many will never experience this. You are blessed! – Jon Kennedy

Have a lot more fun…

If you’re just looking to get through each day, then you’re not living your life - you’re existing. However, your life can be more exciting when you tell yourself that it’s alright to have fun like the next person does. As a matter of fact, you can have a lot more fun than the next person does when you realize that there is no limit to how much, and what level of fun you wish to have in your life.

Here is to having lots of fun, and as often as possible! – Jon Kennedy

All by God’s grace…

Nik Wallenda understands the meaning of living in the moment. When his life is balancing on a narrow cable high above the crowd, we hear him praising God. At moments like this, he is closer to God, through Jesus Christ, than almost anyone else on earth. He knows that each precarious step he took as he crossed the Grand Canyon, was all by God’s grace, imparted on him to accomplish such a fantastic feat that he had always dreamed about.

Nik discovered long ago to place God, through Jesus Christ, at the center of his life. While performing, he knows that, no matter what happens to him, he can’t go wrong with, Christ, at the center of his life. The same rings true for all Christians.

Here’s to living in the moment and truly knowing God, through Jesus Christ! – Jon Kennedy

Consistent and expected...

God’s Universe will never suddenly become capricious as to make everyone wonder what is happening from one moment to the next. The Universe is full of consistencies that need not be understood, because they are at constant work, whether we exist or not in the equation.

What is constantly at work with human beings is consistent. Yes, it’s true that we are all thrown surprises from time to time. But, that too, is consistent and expected in our existence.

The next surprise, either good or bad that comes your way, is really no surprise at all to the Universe; it’s just another consistency. – Jon Kennedy

Absolutely your choice...

It’s instinctive to sense that being with those who lean to the positive, brighter side, are much more affable than those who lean to the negative, darker side of life. You make the choice as to which side you prefer to live your life in general. You may have been raised thoroughly influenced in choosing a darker way of life. But deciding to take the happier, more positive road, is absolutely your choice and your choice only. You must take all of the credit for this decision. – Jon Kennedy

It is much more desirable…

When you truly desire something more than anything else, you will usually get it. You’ve changed your thinking so dramatically that this is who you’ve become. The person that you were didn’t desire the thing that you want now. This change occurred either voluntarily when the moment was right, or by having it forced upon you. In other words, it is much more desirable to be excited and want to make $1 million, than to be forced to, somehow, acquire $1 million that you owe someone who will have your legs broken if you don’t pay-up immediately.

Having a huge desire for something indicates that you are ready, with passionate feelings, to possess it as soon as the Universe can possibly deliver it to you. – Jon Kennedy

These words of inspiration…

When someone is inspired to do something positive for the world, the inspired sends his or her inspiration out in all directions by any means available, sharing their wisdom with all who are receptive and ready to live by, and spread these words of inspiration to others.

Be ready to act on inspiration 24 hours a day, it can present itself at any moment! – Jon Kennedy
