Devotion for Tuesday, June 6


No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends (John 15:13)

On this date in 1944, during the height of World War II, the Allied forces stormed the beaches at Normany, France -  Utah and Omaha (USA), Gold and Sword (Great Britain) and Juno (Canada) -- in what has come down to us in history as D-Day.  

The sacrifices that were made on that day by so many lives on as a reminder that freedom comes with a price.  

Just as our freedom in Christ comes with a cross, the values and freedom of our democracy comes with a price.

Let us remember the brave men and women of D-Day today who paid that price and give thanks for their sacrifice.

And lets us always give thanks and offer support for the brave men and women who serve our values today!
