Who do you believe have saved you? Happy Memorial Day!!

Today is a holiday of remembering the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. Today is a day where many people visit cemeteries and memorials, particularly to honor those who have died in military service. There are people who will live because men left the security they enjoyed in their home to come to serve our country.
"Today we remember 1.3 million men and women who died so we could live.  Each of them left the security of their homes to defend ours.  They paid the ultimate price for their nation and for each of us.  It's been said that the reason you've not received a bill for the freedom you enjoy today is that its price has already been paid.  Today we remember those who paid that price and pray for those they left behind. As we remember their sacrifice, let us also remember the One who gave everything for our eternal life.  Paul told the Romans, "At just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.  Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.  But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:6-8). He died protecting him from certain death." -Dr. Jim Denison

I can never forget the person who sacrificed his life to save me.  I owe everything to my savior, Jesus Christ. I owe everything to the One who saved me!!

Happy Memorial Day!! : )
