This week, we have the great privilege of honoring those who served in the U.S. military when we celebrate Veterans Day. While we are always grateful for their allegiance to our country, we thank our veterans, pay tribute to their sacrifices and pray for them in a special way this week. Throughout our history, men and women in uniform secured our freedom, protected us from aggressors and defended our Constitution and way of life. Why not take some time this week to attend a Veterans Day event or display the U.S. flag? You could call a veteran and thank them for their service. May we learn from their sacrifices and their courage. May God’s abundant blessings always be upon them and may he fill our world with the precious gift of His peace.
