Memorial Day

Today we remember the sacrifice of many who gave their lives so that we might live free in this land we call the United States of America.
As Americans, have we taken this freedom for granted?

As Christians around the world, do we take for granted the sacrifice of our Savior, Jesus Christ?

It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.
Galatians 5:1 NASB

For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.
Galatians 5:13 NASB

As these servicemen of the branches of the Armed Forces gave their lives for freedom out of love for their country, Jesus gave His life for all creation, the entire world.

Professing Christian, are you forsaking the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for your freedom by becoming a slave once again to the ways of the world?

🌹God, I once again surrender to You as Your bondservant, who by Your grace, I am set free. Forgive me Lord God when I use this freedom, given to me by Your sacrifice, as a covering for any kind of evil. Help me to keep standing firm on Your foundation. As a bondservant for Your namesake, I proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord! To Your glory, Jesus Christ, my Savior! Amen.
1 Peter 2:16/2 Corinthians 4:5 NASB

Continually Seeking Him,

Sharon
