Memorial Day's Greater Love

[dannoboone]

Another Memorial Day has come in which we honor those who have
fallen so that we can be the "home of the free". In today's
political climate in which socialism is being more and more pushed
on us, it is becoming more clear that too much of our population
no longer cherishes being the home of the free. What would our
WWI and WWII fallen soldiers think of today's Americans? Would
they wonder what they died for? Did they die in vain? Will we
become much like the police states which they defeated?

The greatest warrior who ever lived did not fight with guns,
armor, or missiles. He fought with heavenly love. He practiced
what he preached, "Greater love hath no man than this, that a
man lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13. He died to
be a friend to us all, that we may live in an eternal land
free of war, hate and sin, all for the simple act of recognizing
Him as Lord and Savior, confessing our sins, and asking Him to
come into our hearts.

Our country may very well go away, but Heaven will always stay.

So true! It’s easy to become more concerned about the temporary here and now than the eternal then and forever.
