MEMORIAL DAY: A DAY TO HONOR LIFE

Memorial Day – to some it’s merely the beginning of summer and to others it’s a
solemn day to remember those who have passed from this life. However, to the war
veteran and to the families of fallen soldiers, Memorial Day carries
significance so deep that words cannot express their hearts.

When we look into the eyes of those who still mourn these once vibrant men and
women, we often sense their loneliness and pain. We hear them choke back tears
as they simply say the ranks and names of their military brothers and sisters at
a Memorial Day service. White gloves, dress uniforms, rigid posture, and
perfectly precisioned salutes represent the reverence and respect flowing from
within. Those who have been personally affected by war understand and appreciate
this day of remembrance.

What should we say to those who sincerely honor this day? "Happy Memorial Day"
doesn't seem fitting. "I'm sorry for your loss" may be closer to appropriate.
What would the fallen soldier want from their comrades and the rest of the
country on this day?

In an often quoted Memorial Day speech given in 1884 by Oliver Wendell Holmes
Jr., the speaker ended his address with these words, “Our dead brothers still
live for us, and bid us think of life, not death -- of life to which in their
youth they lent the passion and joy of the spring. As I listen, the great chorus
of life and joy begins again, and amid the awful orchestra of seen and unseen
powers and destinies of good and evil our trumpets sound once more a note of
daring, hope, and will.”

The American soldier who gave his or her life for U.S. citizens to enjoy life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness won’t be telling us how to observe the
holiday. But I believe that Holmes’ proposition to “think of life, not death”
would honor the fallen soldier. Their sacrifice follows the example of Jesus
Christ laying down His life for our freedom. It's selfless love for others – not
so others can mourn forever, but live!

> "We know what real love is because Jesus gave up his life for us. So we also
> ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters." (1 John 3:16** NLT)

Notice that in Scripture and in military service, the willingness to give up
one’s life is not dependent on the worthiness of the people who benefit from the
honorable act. In a perfect world, all who receive freedom and grace would be
worthy of such a sacrifice and full of gratitude. But that’s not the way it is
anywhere on Earth or in Heaven.

> "But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we
> were still sinners." (Romans 5:8**)

We are blessed to be living in a free society. May we honor our American
soldiers for the liberty we have in this country. May we also give thanks to
Almighty God for the freedom we have to spend eternity with Him because of His
gift of forgiveness through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

JESUS IS MY FRIEND

When I was young, I thought calling Jesus my friend was an exaggerated
statement. In my moments of solitude, He understands because He spent time
alone. In my moments of pain, He comforts me because He was whipped and beaten;
on Him, all the punishment of humanity fell. Learn how He can be your friend,
today!


LOVE NEVER FAILS

Love is more than a romantic notion. Love is what God commands of us. Jesus said
that the greatest commandments are to love God and to love others (Matthew
22:37-40) and that all the 613 laws of the Old Testament could be summed up in
those two simple statements. So how does this apply to us?


WHEN WE DON’T KNOW WHY, GOD DOES

Amid circumstances that don’t seem to add up and life trials we have no
explanation for, we can find peace in knowing that God’s plan for us is better
than anything we can imagine. When we don’t understand why our lives unfold the
way they do, we can still trust in God’s purpose.
