God is my rock

He said:

“The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer;

    my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge,

    my shield and the horn of my salvation.

He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior—

    from violent people you save me.

“I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise,

    and have been saved from my enemies.

2 Samuel 22:2-4 NIV

 Have I not commanded you?

The God of Comfort

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 

who comforts us in all our troubles, 

so that we can comfort those in any trouble 

with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. 

For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, 

so also our comfort abounds through Christ.

2 Corinthians 1:3-5 NIV

Thank a soldier

Memorial Day should be a reminder to us to take every opportunity throughout the year
to thank a Veteran or someone currently serving.

Who do you want to thank?

The name of the righteous is used in blessings,

    but the name of the wicked will rot.

Proverbs 10:7 NIV

Serve with humility

I only know one soldier well enough to understand his drive and ambition, but I've spoken to other soldiers enough to know that my friend's outlook on his duties and purpose are exactly like theirs. They do whatever is required of them. They take their responsibilities very seriously and their work ethic is impeccable. Just think where we'd be without our military. I'm in complete awe of them and wish I could be as giving and serving. Whenever my husband saw a veteran at a restaurant, he would discreetly pay for their meal as an act of gratitude. Thank a soldier today.

 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. 

Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 

not looking to your own interests but 

each of you to the interests of the others.

Philippians 2:3-4 NIV

     You don't need to be in the military to do this. In everything we do, we should do for others as servants of Christ. They will see us as Christians and our acts will glorify God.

Memorial Day 2019

It's a very special person who decides to join the military. Someone full of love and pride for their country; someone who wants to protect the rights and freedoms of complete strangers, unselfishly sacrificing their safety and sometimes their life.

     This Memorial Day, remember to honor those who serve and have served. Thank them for their service. Let them know that we as civilians are grateful and that we remember them in our prayers.

Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

John 15:13
