Greater love has no one than this:

to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

John 15:13

Today…I will remember those who are, and were, willing to pay the price of sacrifice.

So that we may have liberty.

Wyatt McCain, 8, from North Pole, Alaska, looks upon his father’s grave at the National Cemetery on Memorial Day in Arlington, Va. His dad, Army SFC Johnathan McCain, was killed by a roadside bomb in Afghanistan in November 2011.

When we see the stars and stripes of our national flag waving in the wind….

Let us remember the sacrifice paid for our liberty.

And with grateful hearts give thanks.

May we stand against tyranny and for truth.

“…if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves
and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways,
then I will hear from heaven,
and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14

Remembering…
