Veterans
John 15:13, Rom 12:14
Vietnam
veterans were deeply hurt when protesters did not respect them.
The protesters had forgotten that our freedoms come with a
cost, one which we fought to preserve, and some gave their lives to protect
those freedoms. The Bible says in John 15:13 that ‘Greater love hath no man
than this that he lay down his life for his friends.”
Yes, veterans have experienced a rejection of that love as a
country. Turning to God’s way, we should forgive and find ways to bless. Rom 12:14 says “Bless them that persecute you;
bless, and curse not.”
Fortunately, our country is now honoring its veterans. Still, all of us who are veterans should
consider this prayer:
Father, help me to continually find ways to bless my
country. I forgive those who hurt us. In
Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Reflection:
Why is important to honor our
veterans?
What happened to our country
when we did not honor our veterans?
