"No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends." (Jn 15:13)
I hope everyone has had a wonderful Memorial Day, and that we've all had the chance to pause and reflect on why we have a "Memorial Day" to begin with.
It's because freedom isn't free, but it is worth fighting for, worth sacrificing for, even worth dying for. Christ sacrificed his life so that we might be freed from sin; today, we remember those who sacrificed their lives so that we might walk in freedom, free from oppression, free from fear, free to follow Christ without persecution.
Pray for those who sacrificed for our freedom - pray that the freedoms for which they sacrificed will not be lost - and that the true freedom found in Christ may reign in our world.
