Today we celebrate the sacrifice of the American soldier. I am thankful for all those who have served and are currently serving in our nations military.
Being a soldier is not an easy thing no matter if you are in the US Army or God’s Army. Nobody promised that it would be easy. If they did, they have lied. If something is worth obtaining then it will not be easy to get it. Being a soldier is no different.
Look at the counsel that the Apostle Paul gave to Timothy in II Timothy 2:3-4, “Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.” It is not easy to be a soldier. No matter if you are in God’s Army or not there is a war going on whether we acknowledge it or not.
I am thankful for the American Soldier. Someone said that if you can read thank a teacher. If you can read in English thank a soldier. There is a lot of truth to that. If it were not for our armed forces we would not be speaking English because we would be ruled by some other government.
Thank you to all men and women that have given themselves to serve our nation and secure our freedom.
So, how are you doing?
