Memorial Day is a Day for remembering those who died while serving our Country. When we think of their selflessness and heroism, we are reminded of words spoken by Jesus: “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” John 15:13
The life we enjoy today, the life that we take so much for granted, were bought for us by the sacrifices of those that died so that we could live. Brave men and women of all ages, who believed our values and freedoms were worth dying for. Their brave and unselfish sacrifice shall never be forgotten.
As you enjoy this Holiday weekend please take the time to remember the thousands who have died so that we might live. Say a prayer for those who have died and the families that were left behind, and a prayer for Peace and Protection for those that serve today and in the future.
