Only once a. year do we have the chance to see fireworks. I love fireworks.They excite me and make me happy. We don't usually go anywhere to watch the fireworks. Sometimes we see them on TV and sometimes they can be seen off in the distance from our home.
I love the bright lights that flash across the sky, the temporary twinkling stars that fall toward the ground, the colorful sparkling rainbows that are there for just an instant, the booming single explosions of light, rockets that soar across the sky leaving a trail of twinkling lights, and amazing showers of beauty and light.
A few years ago our neighbor in Ankeny put on a fireworks show in his backyard. It was professionally done but he invited the neighborhood to enjoy it. I was in heaven! We invited our family to come sit on our deck and watch the lights overhead. It was delightful!
"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows," (James 1:17 NIV).
As you enjoy the fireworks this July 4th holiday season may you remember that every good gift comes from the Father above. God bless you and God bless America.
