Remembering the Brave

Veterans Day 2019

Today we remember our brave soldiers who have protected and defended our country since its inception. Thank you, all Veterans for serving your country so bravely. Thank you for accepting the commitment, no matter what and for giving your time, your energy, your skills, your life for your country. Thank you for the inconvenience to your family, the worry it caused, and the dedication you gave. Thank you for loving America and proudly representing each of us, where ever you go. Thank you, Veterans and families of our lost.

To remember all of the conflicts our Veterans have served in is too overwhelming to comprehend. Those who served during war times have seen unspeakable things, too terrible to share. Many of our Veterans continue to suffer long after their active service. And I would guess most of them do not get the help they need. They suffer in silence.

Let us take time today to say a prayer for all Veterans and say thank you to all who have served. I'm proud of you and so very thankful for your willingness to dedicate your life to your country.

"Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them. Remember...," (Deuteronomy 4:9-10a NIV).
