Today is Flag Day, a little
remembered day, on which we give honor to our American flag. In recent years, we have seen our flag burned
and dishonored in places throughout the world.
And then, we feel the pride when the flag is raised over the Olympians
at a medal award ceremony.
Flags are a symbol of a
nation, of a group, of an organization and it expresses the values and purpose
of that nation or group. It brings
together in a visual image all that the designers want to express about a
specific group.
Our red, white, and blue
flag hangs at half-mast this week because one person was not able to hide
contempt for others.
Today, let us give thanks
for all the positive things our flag represents, especially the respect given
to all. Jesus has asked us to love
others as we wish to be loved. Let us do
that today.
