Memorial Day Remembrance and Prayer

Recommended Posts

Dear God, on this Memorial Day weekend, please help us to remember and give thanks for those who have given their lives in the service of our country.

When the need was greatest,
they stepped forward and did their duty to defend the freedoms that we enjoy, and to win the same for others.

These honored dead gave the most precious gift they had,
life itself, to promote that most just cause. 

Help us to honor their memory
by caring for the families they have left behind, by ensuring that their wounded comrades
are properly cared for and by being watchful caretakers of the freedoms for which they gave their lives. 

O Dear Lord, help us to remember that freedom is not free.

There are times when its cost is, indeed, dear. Never let us forget those who paid so terrible a price to ensure that freedom would be ours to cherish and enjoy. 

Though their names may fade with the passing of generations, may we never forget what they have done.
Help us to be worthy of their sacrifice. 

Please Dear God, help us to be worthy.
 

Amen
