Veterans Day

It has been over a week since the political hoopla has ended, and today we observe a different kind of special day. Today is a day of solemn remembrance and prayers for those who have in the past, and today protect our freedom ,and us. Today we put the politics of war aside, and honor those who serve their country. We honor sons, daughters, husbands, wives, and parents, all of whom have put their personal lives on hold because their country needed them. Many never to return.

As you go about your daily routine, say a little prayer for those men and women who have answered their countries call to go into harms way. Forget the big buisness men. Forget the singers and actor activists. Forget the politics and politicians. Remember your neighbors who understand that our country can’t exist without those who are willing to give of themselves. Remember the solders of decades past that faced down true evil for the safety of generations to come. Remember all those who even now are fighting and dying, to protect us from terror.

To all those in the service of our country, our hearts and prayers are with you.

May we never forget your sacrifice.

Thank you!
