A Memorial Day Prayer...

 

Heavenly Father,

On this Memorial Day weekend, we pause to remember and honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. We are grateful for their bravery, selflessness, and dedication that have safeguarded our freedoms.

We ask for Your comfort and peace for the families who have lost loved ones. Surround them with Your love and grace, and remind us to support and uplift them.

Bless our veterans and active service members who continue to protect and serve. Give them strength, protection, and guidance in their endeavors.

Help us to live our lives in gratitude, never taking for granted the liberties we enjoy, and always striving for peace.

In Your name, we pray, amen.
