It’s Memorial Day
weekend which means that once again it’s time for me to remind you that this
holiday is a time set aside to pay homage to those brave young American men and
women who made the ultimate sacrifice to maintain the freedoms we hold so
dear. Somewhere over the past year or so
I came across the following and it conveys the message I endeavor to send to
you each year:
“We need to remember that God created this vast and
glorious world for us to live in, freely, but also at great sacrifice. Let us never forget from the Revolutionary
War to the current War on Terrorism and all the wars in-between that the
sacrifice of others has reserved our freedom. Remember to pray praises for this
great country of ours and for those who gave their lives that it might remain
great and free. Also pray for those
still in murderous unrest around the world.
STOP and thank God for being alive and being free at someone else's
sacrifice. God Bless You and God Bless America.”
