Pledge Allegiance to the Flag

It’s not the square of fabric, it’s what it stands for. My nation’s flag stands for liberty and justice, worthy causes indeed. And God’s banner?

 

Song of Songs 2:4 (NIV)
Let his banner over me be love.

 

 

The flag of love. That’s a flag I can raise up, live under, get behind and carry foreword. It stands for God’s love for us, our love for Him, and our love for one another. 

1 John 4:19
We love because he first loved us.

  1. It’s not love that it stands for,
    this flag I choose to fly;
    it’s that sometimes freedom’s answer
    is that some men have to die.
    Our pundits and our athletes
    say our history’s a shame,
    and that the truth is on the streets
    and that we are to blame.
    They say this from their privilege
    and estates with guarded gates,
    free from being pillaged,
    free from deadly fates.
    Their voices and grandiloquent pen
    rise from the graves of our dead men.

      “Sometimes freedom’s answer is that some men have to die.” So true, Andrew.
