Remembering on Memorial Day
Dear Friends,
It’s Memorial Day Weekend and the weekend can be a time for fun with road trips, family gatherings, and cookouts. Many enjoy an extra day off of work. But, Memorial Day must be a time for remembering.
We remember those who served and sacrificed their lives for our country. We can be thankful for the freedom we have because of their selflessness and we can be somber for their loss of life. They died so that we could enjoy the life we live in the greatest country on earth.
While we remember those who served and sacrificed, let the memory point us to the One who paid the ultimate sacrifice, Jesus Christ. He willingly gave his life on the cross to pay the penalty for our sin so that all who believe in Him will have their sins forgiven and enjoy eternal life.
Memorial Day can be a John 3:16 day –
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
Remember the sacrifice, be thankful, and enjoy this Memorial Day weekend!
Blessings,
Robin
