Memorial Day - Never Forget The Cost Of Freedom
Contributed by David Simpson on May 24, 2018 (message contributor)
Needless to say, protecting our freedom has come at a great cost. President Franklin Roosevelt said: “Those who have long enjoyed such privileges as we enjoy forget in time that men have died to win them.”
Our Lord Jesus Christ knew that we all have trouble remembering things, even important matters, so he gave the Lord’s Supper as a lasting memorial so that we might never forget his sacrifice for our spiritual freedom. He said: “Do this in remembrance of me.” (Luke 22:19)
On this Memorial Day weekend, may we never be guilty of forgetting those who gave all on behalf of our wonderful nation. We are free to worship our Savior this Sunday because of those who sacrificed their lives that we might enjoy this weekly privilege. I’m humbled by their sacrifice. I hope you are too.
