David’s Daily Devotion for Nov. 11

November 11, 2024 - Good Morning! It’s Monday, November 11.

Today is Veteran’s Day. It is our pleasure, our blessing, our honor, to say thank you to all the men and women who have served as soldiers, who have stood their post, who have protected America. Here’s some great quotes for this special day.

*Some people live their entire lives and wonder if they’ve made a difference in the world. Veterans don’t have that problem. Ronald Reagan

*Honor to the soldiers and sailors everywhere, who bravely bear their country’s cause. Abraham Lincoln

*We will be soldiers, so that our sons may be farmers, so that their sons may be artists. Thomas Jefferson

*Never was so much owed by so many to so few.   Winston Churchill

Those who have served in the military are truly worthy of faithful support and honor. God calls us, as Christian soldiers, to serve as well. The Apostle Paul wrote these words to the churches in Galatia (5:13) - “You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another in love”. And to his brothers and sisters in Philippi, Paul writes (2:3-4) - “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility, value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests, but each of you to the interests of others”.

Good advice for soldiers. Good advice for us all.

Reach out to a veteran today . . . and say thanks.

Meet you back here tomorrow,

David
