Memorial Day weekend is a time that America sets apart to specifically honor those who have sacrificed their lives during active military service. It is a time to recognize the glory in serving our country with everything they had. I am in awe of those who are willing to step up and give their all for me, an insignificant American citizen so that I can maintain the freedoms and rights afforded to me by my government and forefathers. Having national freedom is a temporal opportunity.
The One Who sacrificed it all to save me from eternal damnation is the one that I want to honor every single day. I am beyond grateful for what Jesus did for me on the cross. He defines love as laying one's life down for our brothers and sisters. It got me thinking. Do I do that in my own home? Do I show true love to my family in all that I do and say? Do they feel loved by me and am I setting the example of love like Jesus did? Luckily, Jesus also left us with some valuable information and a Helper to guide us as we fumble through trying to live out this type of love. Come Holy Spirt!
