Today we remember the 82nd Anniversary of D-Day, June 6, 1944.
On that day, thousands of brave men crossed the English Channel and stormed the beaches of Normandy in one of the most significant operations in history. Many never returned home. They faced overwhelming danger, uncertainty, and sacrifice so that future generations might live in freedom.
As Christians, we especially remember those brothers in Christ who stepped onto those beaches knowing the cost that might be required of them. Men of faith stood shoulder to shoulder with their fellow soldiers, carrying with them not only their equipment and training, but also their hope, prayers, and trust in God.
Today we honor their courage, their sacrifice, and their memory. We pray for those who fell, for the families they left behind, and for all who served in the cause of liberty. May we never forget the price that was paid by so many, and may we strive to live lives worthy of the sacrifices made on our behalf.
"Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends."
— John 15:13 (ESV)
Lest we forget.
