I dream of giving birth to a child who will ask, "Mother, what was war?" ~Eve Merriam
"Freedom is never free." -Author Unknown
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. ~John Fitzgerald Kennedy
O Lord, today I thank You for our veterans, for their willingness to risk all so that our nation might dwell in peace and safety. May they find the honor and recognition they truly deserve. I pray that You will heal the physical, spiritual, and psychological wounds some of these veterans have suffered. Bring a lasting peace to those who mourn the loss of comrades. Help them to find Your love and mercy, so that they may cope with the actions they may have had to take while they served our country. Make them realize that the rules of engagement in war do not always follow the laws of Christianity, but give them solace by Your scripture passages that show them that sometimes battle is necessary for the common good. Amen.

Imagine all the people... Memorial Day Thoughts in Maryland
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Have we told you lately that we love you? We do!
Dear Moms, Dads,Wives, Sisters, Brothers, Aunts, Uncles, Girlfriends, Loved Ones.... yes- all loved ones ... and most of all our soldiers,
Have we told you lately how proud we are? How much we love you? How much we're thinking of you? That we are here for you? Because we are... in our prayers, moments throughout the day, when we see someone in uniform, speak to a friend, correspond with someone else on line. Thank you for the sacrifice of being away from home, your loved ones - for us, for America, for freedom.
Have we told you lately that we love you - We Love You!
