Good morning! I have had a great weekend. We had some great services at church yesterday. I was blessed to see a young man accept Jesus Christ as his Savior last night. I got to spend some time with him afterward and he is a pretty cool young man. God is just so good! Hard to put it into words sometimes. I am taking the youth to a memorial service for our fallen and serving veterans today at 10:30. I am very proud of them for showing the interest in attending this event. It was spearheaded by a young lady in our youth that has had her eyes opened to what freedom is and to those who gave their lives for us to have it. I do believe it has changed her. I am proud of all of our young people. I must ask you a question. Have you remembered the men and women serving our country this year before this weekend? I know so many times that we get caught up in life that we forget about what is going on around the world. Guy's, God wants us to remember and not forget. Let's dig into the good stuff........
Every year, we Americans remember those brave men and women who fought and gave their lives so that you and I would have the rights and privileges of living in a free country. Remembering is so very important. You saw in the Bible verse, God instructs His people on many occasions in the Old Testament to remember from whence they came and to remember His providence. It is by the mighty hand of God that we are saved, we are protected, and we are free to live in the Land of the Brave. We should never take that freedom for granted. It is a valuable commodity for which the everyone needs, and it is something that we must protect no matter what the cost. Do you know someone in your life who has served in the armed forces of this country? Make it a point this week to let them know how much you appreciate them and their service.
