Veterans' Day

Today, it is our honor and privilege to honor those who have served and are serving in the Armed Forces of the United States of America. We who remain at home, safe and free, may never fully grasp the magnitude of what they have sacrificed of their time, their health, their dreams, their lives, in order that we may securely pursue our dreams and realize the full potential of our lives.

To you who have carried the Colors into far-off lands to spare us at home from tyranny and terrorism, may we say, Thank you.

Lord Jesus, I ask YOU to open YOUR hand of blessing to these good people who have loved liberty better than life. I ask YOU to lavish all YOUR FINEST GIFTS UPON THEM. I ask that YOU WITHHOLD NO BLESSING OF TIME OR ETERNITY FROM THESE WHO HAVE SPENT SO MUCH OF THEMSELVES ON THE FREEDOM WE VALUE IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

I ask, Jesus, that YOU cause our people to turn back to YOU again with full devotion to YOU and to YOUR KINGDOM's PURPOSES so WE WILL BE WORTHY OF THE SACRIFICES THEY HAVE MADE FOR THIS NATION and so WE WILL BE WORTHY OF THE MATCHLESS SACRIFICE YOU HAVE MADE FOR MANKIND. In Your holy name I pray, JESUS. Amen.
