When the Founding Fathers signed the Declaration of Independence in 1776, they were doing more than just making a symbolic pledge. They were putting their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor on the line for the cause of American liberty.
Many of the signers did not live to see the Revolution win. Some were captured and endured harsh conditions as prisoners of war. Others lost everything they owned paying for supplies and soldiers to fight the British. Their incredible sacrifices allowed a new nation to be born.
It's difficult for us to relate to the risks the Founding Fathers took over 200 years ago. Our comfortable modern lives seem so far removed from the peril and uncertainty they face. However, we owe our freedom today to their selfless dedication. So how can we honor their legacy and match their commitment to America's ideals?
There are no easy answers, but we can start by reconsidering what it means to sacrifice for something greater than ourselves. The Founders pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor for the cause of independence. We may not be called to give to that extreme, but we can all find ways to dedicate our time, talent, and treasure to serving our communities and nation.
The Founding Fathers reconsidered the meaning of sacrifice to establish America. May their gift continue to inspire us to live out the ideals they fought so bravely to uphold.
