Rejoice…and Remember

 “Rejoice always…”
 —1 Thessalonians 5:16

Another work week begins—with a holiday. How cool is that?

You will have many choices in the week ahead. Choose wisely and heed these words of the Apostle Paul from 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18:

“Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”

Even in our darkest hour, we can rejoice that God will never leave us. He will always stand before us as our protective shield against the evil one. He will guard our hearts that we will not faint. He will give us every good and perfect gift.

On this Memorial Day, as we pray for the families of those who have lost a loved one who died in defense of our freedoms, let us vow that we will never forget the sacrifice made in our behalf.

Let us determine to live in a way that will honor their sacrifice. And, let us continue to keep those who still guard our freedoms here at home and in the four corners of the world in the forefront of our daily prayers.

May God pour out His richest blessings on those who sacrifice for others. And, may God bless the United States of America.
