Little by little, piece by piece our liberty seems to be stripping away. It happens so gradually that we don’t even notice it until it’s too late. It’s likened to parents who see their little toddler every day and don’t see the gradual growth, but someone who hasn’t seen the child in a while is stunned by the growth. The changes taking place in our nation seem subtle, until we take a hard look at them – and then we are stunned.
