Lets thank them all!

If you read facebook, you might have already seen this, but I am going to post it here for all to read. I heard this a couple of days ago on the radio. It was quoted by a mom of an Army soldier who had been killed in Iraq in 2004.

" Our flag does not fly due to the winds that blow past it,
Our flag flies due to the final breaths
Of the Marines, Soldiers, Airmen and Sailors
Who have died fighting to protect it"

When I heard this, it struck me right in the heart. There are many families in this US who are observing this memorial day with heaviness and sadness in their hearts. Many parents, brothers, sisters, husbands, and wives who are missing their loved one who gave his or her life for this country. For our freedom, so that our flag could fly with pride.

Lets thank them all today.

For those of you who pray, please say a prayer for the safety of our servicemen and women who are serving all over the world, and for their families who are anxiously awaiting their return home.......
