On Veterans Day

On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in the year of 1918, with the signing of the Armistice, the fighting in the "War to End All Wars" was brought to an end.

Sadly, evil men still persist in doing evil things, and wars continue to be fought to ensure freedom both here in America and around the world.  As long as this earth continues to exist in its present state, evil will also continue to exist, and the war against evil will continue to be fought.

Over 200 years ago, Irish Statesman Edmund Burke stated,

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." Evil will continue to press forward, but I hope and pray that good men will continue to stand up and fight for what is right.

Today we honor all those who have sacrificed so much so that we may be free. We thank those that have given all so we may have all. To those men and women in our armed forces we say a resounding "Thank You". We hold you in the highest regard, and may you always have a place of honor in our nation and in our hearts.

"Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends."

John 15:13 NKJV
