Today's devotional reading for: Sunday, May 30, 2021 Lest We Forget Now the Lord is the Spirit. And where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. — 2 Corinthians 3:17 Memorial Day is a time to remember those brave men and women who paid the ultimate price for our freedom.  Tragically, hundreds of millions of people do not live in liberty.  Ironically, freedom is something that is easily taken for granted.  It is like the air we breathe.  It is not until it is gone that we even think about it. John Adams, our second president, made a declaration to future years, saying this:  “Posterity: You will never know how much it has cost my generation to procure your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it.” One great truth that Americans have forgotten, I believe, is that the source of liberty comes from only one place: it comes from God; it has come from Christ, who alone can make people free.  Wherever the pure Gospel of Jesus Christ with its emphasis upon grace and the Cross has been preached, it has been followed by civil and political liberty. Would that the flame of freedom and liberty that burned so brightly in the hearts of our founders be fanned into a flame again in America.  This Memorial Day is a good time to begin. Question to ponder: Are you thankful for your freedom? Is there any survivor of a fallen soldier that you can thank today?
