Greetings š
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.
āMy command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down oneās life for oneās friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his masterās 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 fruitāfruit that will lastāand so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. This is my command: Love each other.ā John 15: 12-17 (NIV).
We would not have our nation, our livelihood, or our future without the sacrifices of our forebears. Letās emulate Christ and letās also honor our fallen dead from every war.

āLet the redeemed of the Lord tell their storyā those he redeemed from the hand of the foe.ā

Throwback to a few years ago ā still one of my favorite photos. Standing with these incredible women reminded me how powerful it is when we show up for each other. The smiles, the purpose, the sisterhood⦠some things donāt change.
Whatās one moment from the past few years that still fires you up?

How often do people assume God is limited to certain places, seasons, or circumstances?
In 1 Kings 20, Israel faced the Arameans, who decided the Lord was only a god of the mountains, not the valleys.
This was His answer:
āThis is what the Lord says: āSince the Arameans have said, āThe Lord is a god of mountains, but He is not a god of valleys,ā therefore I will hand over to you all this great multitude, and you shall know that I am the Lord.āā
So they camped, one opposite the other, for seven days. And on the seventh day the battle was joined, and the sons of Israel killed of the Arameans a hundred thousand foot soldiers in a single day.
1 Kings 20:28-29 (NASB)
The valley was not outside His reach.

How is your faith during these difficult times?
God is looking for those who will believe and take action.
His word tells us:
āAnd without faith it is impossible to please Him, for the one who comes to God must believe that He exists, and that He proves to be One who rewards those who seek Him.
By faith Noah, being warned by God about things not yet seen, in reverence prepared an ark for the salvation of his household, by which he condemned the world, and became an heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.ā
Hebrews 11:6-7 (NASB)
Where is He asking you to take that next leap of faith?
