Because Wednesday is Veterans Day.

Before we get started, take the time to remember those who have served our country,

to acknowledge those who have served our country.

And we also like to, on Veterans Day, make it a time to honor those who are now currently serving our country.

I don't know that it's possible, especially in this day, and especially in our country,

as our country is today, to overstate the importance of those who serve in our armed forces.

I am becoming increasingly greed and I don't want to get into this in much detail.

I did share my heart concerning this during the 4th of July, but I just think that our military deserve better treatment

and our veterans which is a real political issue if you haven't noticed in this

year's election deserve to be treated better it is appalling Dare I say it is disgusting. And so on this

particular Veterans Day, I want for all of you who have served or are serving to stand,

we want to honor you, we want to thank you, and we want to pray for you. So please stand

and remain standing if you would. Thank you.

Remain standing and please know that we cannot thank you enough for your service. Would you join with me in a

word of prayer? Loving Heavenly Father, thank you. Thank you for these who are standing

before us in our midst today. Lord, we thank you for them and we thank you for their service to our country, our great

country.

Lord, if it weren't for them, I wonder would we have the freedom to meet in this place as we do and freely open up our Bibles and worship

you Lord.

Lord it's for that reason that we owe them such a debt of gratitude.

And Lord we pray your blessing on them.

And again Lord we thank you for them in Jesus
