Today is Memorial Day in the United States. It’s a time to remember and honor the military personnel who died while serving our country.
In Ecclesiastes 3 we’re told there is a time for everyting…
3 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, 3 a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, 4 a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, 5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, 6 a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, 7 a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, 8 a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.
This year we’ve also battled COVID and have lost many people in the fight. Today I plan to take time to remember our military and also those on the front line defending us against this horrible disease.
Wherever you are I hope you have a good day of celebrating. Thanks for your sacrifice and thanks to those who have given their all.
