Memorial Day

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States for remembering the men and women who died while serving in the country's armed forces. 

So many people confuse Veteran's Day with Memorial Day. Which is the appropriate time to thank Veteran's for their service and honor them. Memorial Day is about remembering freedom is not free and some gave all. They gave the ultimate sacrifice and their families never get to wrap their arms around them again.

I have 4 friends widowed and a dear friend lost that come to mind today. Though they should have many more days dedicated to them, than just one.  I hope you all can find the time today to pray for all the families of our fallen men and woman. Today is not "Happy" for them. 

Today I will remember, enjoy my family, and be grateful for all who laid down their life for my freedoms.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13
