If I could have a minute of everyone's time..
The next two days will be full of the normal patriotic Veterans Day celebrations, and I know in my heart that everyone of us feels the same way about our veterans.. There's only been a few years when our Nation was completely free of war in one form or another, and anyone who served gave our Narion a blank check.. With life as the amount, and with the understanding that it could be "cashed" at any time..
So for those who saved our Nation in WWII, for all of the veterans everywhere, and most importantly for those who gave the ultimate sacrifice and will never return to their family's arms, we offer this short prayer.
Dear Lord, please watch over our Veterans and their family's today as we honor them, and the other 364 days of the year when we sometimes forget their sacrifice. Please let those who gave it all know their memory will always be honored, and please comfort their family's by knowing a grateful Nations pride. Father we ask that you guide us to always be that grateful Nation, and to always honor those who served, and the memory of those who won't return.. We give them to you Lord, that they might be in the palm of your loving hands.. Now and always .. In your holy name, Amen
