Memorial Day Edition

"True heroism is remarkably sober,
very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass
all others at whatever cost, but the urge to
serve others at whatever cost."
- Arthur Ashe

"Courage is contagious. When a brave
man takes a stand, the spines of others
are often stiffened."
- Billly Graham

"These heroes are dead. They died for liberty -
they died for us. They are at rest. They sleep
in the land they made free, under the flag they
rendered stainless, under the solemn pines,
the sad hemlocks, the tearful willows, the embracing
vines. They sleep beneath the shadow of the
clouds, careless alike of sunshine or storm,
each in the windowless palace of rest. Earth
may run red with other wars - they are at peace.
In the midst of the battles, in the roar of
conflicts, they found the serenity of death."
- author unknown

"If my people, which are called by my name,
shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my
face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will
I hear from heaven, and will forgive their
sin, and will heal their land."
- 2 Chronicles 7:14
