Happy Sunday!

Looking forward to today’s service… and a time of reflection for Memorial Day tomorrow.

May you have a meaningful Memorial Day tomorrow — a day to reflect on those who gave their life so that we may peace and freedom.

All gave some. Some gave all.
We appreciate their ultimate sacrifice so that we may have peace and freedom.

As we think of the selflessness and heroism of the fallen, we are reminded of the words of Jesus Christ who said, in John 15:13:
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

The sacrifices of these men and women are truly great and thank-worthy.
Let us also remember, the greatest sacrifice of all time was made by a man in the garden of Gethsemane and on the cross of Golgotha. He poured out His life unto death, physically and spiritually, that all men might live.

May we not neglect His sacrifice so that we may live in peace and freedom.
For only Christ can meet the deepest needs of our hearts — and our world.
Only He can bring the lasting peace and freedom that we all so desperately need.

Alexa,
Set an alarm for me to attend church tomorrow.

The LORD knoweth the days of the upright; and their inheritance shall be for ever.
~ Psalm 37:18

~•~

God, that is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, recognizes and takes note of our days.

God knows we all need grace to be saved. Noted!
And He sees how we respond to His Grace. Also, noted!

What is equally important to know is, God notices what we do with His grace — how we respond to His grace.

~•~

He keeps account of the days of our “salvation”.

Oh yes, He sees when we fall.

And be assured, He sees when we don’t fall.

He sees when we are rejoicing. And He sees when we are suffering.

He knows our bright, sunshiny days. He knows our dark and cloudy days.

He knows us in both of these extremes and is with us, even unto the end.

~•~

Our inheritance (or final reward) shall be heavenly.

It shall NOT be earthly, corruptible, and capable of becoming old or ruined —
but rather, it shall be heavenly, incorruptible, and eternal.

A reward laid up for us in heaven.

Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
~ James 1:12 (KJV)

~ and so many other scriptures.
