Frail but brave and noble fighters. Using their wit and skill and the best equipment they could muster. Led by the greatest leader they have ever known. Giving EVERYTHING - including their last breaths - on behalf of a beautiful hope, a blessed idea of freedom and equality and on behalf of a future they would never live to see.
How am I honoring them? What am I doing in support of that hope? What am I doing with the future and the privilege they so bravely, so FIERCELY placed into my hands? Father God, please help me to be the man that History needs; no, REQUIRES me to be at this time. Thy precious Will be done - through me - Sovereign Lord. Amen.
