General Washington really was chosen to lead our nation by a higher power. Even the Native Americans knew it.
This painting of Gen Washington at Valley Forge, praying for guidance when the fight for America's independence seemed lost. The painting was from the brutal winter of 1777-1778. The "fragile army" of colonists needed to fight to make the independence from Britain declared on July 4th, 1776, stick. The problem was they were freezing to death, without winter clothing, many without shoes.
In July 1755, a 23-year-old Washington escaped a harrowing death at the Battle of Monongahela, when he was shot by an expert marksman and survived. In a letter to his younger brother John the future first president wrote, "By the all-powerful dispensations of Providence, I have been protected beyond all human probability and expectations; for I had 4 bullets through my coat, and 2 horses shot out from under me, yet escaped unhurt, although death was leveling my companions on every side." He then realized God had saved him for a reason.
Years later, before Washington became president, an Indian chief who was at the battle asked to be brought to Washington. He said, "Sir, I just needed to meet you because I am an expert marksman and I shot you 17 times and my men shot you, and pretty soon I told them to stop wasting their bullets, because this is a man who is protected by the great spirit above. I just wanted to see you before I died, knowing you will become the father of a great nation." This used to be in all the history books.
Put American history back in our classroom so that our children will know what our forefathers did to leave a godfilled legacy for us!🇺🇸

"The fate of unborn millions will now depend, under God, on the courage and conduct of this army. Our cruel and unrelenting enemy leaves us only the choice of brave resistance, or the most abject submission. We have, therefore, to resolve to conquer or die.”
- George Washington, July 2, 1776
🚨#BREAKING: A Texas man heard little girls SCREAMING inside a burning house...
...so he punched clean through a GLASS DOOR with his bare hand, wrapped a bandana over his face, and walked straight into the fire to carry them out.
He carried out one little girl.
Then he turned around and went back into the flames for the second.
His name is Leon Segura, two little girls are alive today because of him.
Leon was just driving home when he saw a house on fire and heard children screaming.
He ran towards front door, but it was too hot to get through.
So he ran to the back of the house, and with his BARE HAND, he punched through a glass door, shredding his arm and hand, tied a bandana over his face against the smoke, said,
"Lord, help me,"
and RAN into the fire!!!
He found two young girls inside and one by one, he carried them out.
Just as he pulled the second girl to safety, the back of the house collapsed behind him.
Those two girls are in the burn unit right now, fighting for their lives.
He didn't know them, but he risked his life anyway... that is what a hero looks like.
GOD BLESS Leon Segura!!!!
🔥 HELL YEAH! A pilot just used his airplane to draw a USA 250th banner using his flight path
It took him over FIVE HOURS of flying time to do this.
What a PATRIOT! 🇺🇸

After being in America for 40 minutes, the average illegal “refugee” gets $3874/month.
And red or blue, that should PISS EVERYONE OFF.
This company close to my home town does this every year, but this year tops them all!
