For those who have lost a soldier it is a day of both honor and sorrow. They are honored for their service and their courage and remembered with great sorrow for the loss of a spouse, parent, child, family, and friend they love and miss.
Before you head out to celebrate this weekend, take a moment and pray for the families of our fallen soldiers, for those who are at this very moment serving our country and those who are in preparation to do so.
Prayer is the greatest gift you can give in return for all the sacrifices both the soldier and their families make to keep our country free. When a soldier deploys it affects the family. Spouses are left behind to hold the fort at home with the children.
As an Army wife I know what it is to be missing my husband and praying that the LORD will bring him home safely. I thank God for giving me the strength to endure our separation and for returning him home to us.
There is power in prayer! HAVE A BLESSED MEMORIAL DAY!! AND THANK A VETERAN TODAY!
