This scripture captures a portion of what we honor on Memorial Day. The willingness of men and women to sacrifice their lives to save strangers.
“My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. This is my command: Love each other.” John 15: 12-17 (NIV).
We would not have our nation, our livelihood, or our future without the sacrifices of our forebears. Let’s emulate Christ and let’s also honor our fallen dead from every war.

God is on the move in prayer groups across America. Let revival and unity of purpose unite and empower us.
“I will praise the Lord at all times. I will constantly speak his praises.
I will boast only in the Lord; let all who are helpless take heart.
Come, let us tell of the Lord’s greatness; let us exalt his name together.
I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears.
Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces.
In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened; he saved me from all my troubles.
For the angel of the Lord is a guard;
he surrounds and defends all who fear him.”
Psalm 34: 1-7 (NLT).

Here’s my prayer for today.
“Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law.”
Psalm 119: 18 (NIV).
‼️Below are the verses the Lord gave me today.
What can you glean from these verses ? Do they speak to your heart or situation?
“Hear me, my God, as I voice my complaint; protect my life from the threat of the enemy.
Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the plots of evildoers.
They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim cruel words like deadly arrows.
They shoot from ambush at the innocent; they shoot suddenly, without fear.
They encourage each other in evil plans, they talk about hiding their snares; they say, “Who will see it?”
They plot injustice and say, “We have devised a perfect plan!” Surely the human mind and heart are cunning.
But God will shoot them with his arrows; they will suddenly be struck down.
He will turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
All people will fear; they will proclaim the works of God and ponder what he has done.
The righteous will rejoice in the Lord
  and take refuge...
