Lest We Forget

Today we spend time remembering fallen soldiers and being grateful for those that fighting all around the world.  Fighting for justice and freedom, protecting those that can't protect themselves and putting their lives on the line for others.  I thank God that there are such brave people, that look to the interest of others and the common good more than that of their own. Scripture says we can expect war, but we have hope!

For many will come in my name, claiming,
  ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many.  
You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, 
  but see to it that you are not alarmed.
Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 
  Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes
  in various places. 
Matthew 24:5-7

Thank you Daddy for your Word!  Thank you for warning us that these things MUST happen, so that we are not surprised when they are going on.  Please help me not to be alarmed and to fear not, but BELIEVE ONLY!
