Our Memorial Day!

I would encourage all of our children to take our grandchildren to a Veteran's Cemetery on either Memorial Day or Veterans Day.  What a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by brave men and women.  What a reminder of the scripture in John 15:13--"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."  Soldiers are wonderful and I am grateful today we could go and experience the beautiful cemetery where these brave warriors are laid.
As we entered the cemetery the flags were all at half-mast
and bells were playing "Amazing Grace"
I intentionally took pictures where there weren't any people
but there we so many there and I was humbled realizing that
someones son, father, grandfather or friend was being visited.

If you look closely you will find a fellow member of the church is buried here.
