It's supposed to allow us to refl ect on the lives of those who died while serving in the armed forces in the United States. We would do well to both remember that and to take a moment to actually do it in some fashion. I personally do not believe this is meant to be a somber day whereby one cannot enjoy all that the long weekend has to offer; but that we remember the price that was paid that gives us the freedom to have all of this fun. I think those who died defending freedom would delight in a sense of satisfaction in knowing that Americans feel secure on this day. This day has also always marked the beginning of summer. As a youngster, this was the day the public swimming pool opened. It was a day for baseball, barbeque and bicycles. It was the time my momma unpacked the summer clothes and packed up the winter ones. (I can still remember opening those bags of clothes as if I were getting something new) And of course, perhaps the most important marker that Memorial Day provided was knowing that school was offi cially out for the summer. The name Memorial Day really does fi t. It is a day full of remembrances. But because of this, we must be cautious. Over the years monuments and markers have been built just to keep us from forgetting those who gave their lives in order that we might enjoy ours. Without these, we might lose focus on the real purpose of this day. We might forget the heroic acts and even the bleak moments when it seemed the worst had come. We must remember these times, and the best way to do that is by building these monuments. We learned this in the Bible. God was always telling his people to build an altar or to stack up stones, or even to write something down. It was mainly for one simple reason – so they would not forget; so that each time, they passed by these monuments, they would remember how God had delivered them or provided for them in a diffi cult time. We too would be wise to do the same. Perhaps you are going through a time right now where it seems there is no way out. It may look as if the worst has come, or the end is near. It may seem, as it did to Moses, that you have an enemy that is behind you and a vast sea in front of you. Remember, just as God made a way before, He will make a way now. But this time, after He has parted your Red Sea, build a monument so you and others will remember the next time you think victory will never come.

ListentoLife.org LISTEN TO LIFE by Dr. Joey Faucette Is it hot where you live? It was one of the fi rst hot summer days of the year. It was one of the fi rst hot summer days of the year. I was working outside on our farm. I don't know about you, but it takes me a few times of working outside in the heat for my body to adjust. Since this was one of the fi rst hot days, my body had not adjusted yet. So I was feeling pretty hot, sweaty, and tired out there working away. I stopped to take my hat off and wipe my brow and in doing so looked up. And what to my wandering eyes should appear? Vultures. That's right, three or four vultures were circling over me. And I thought to myself, "I must be feeling worse than I know." I stood there and watched them for a few moments as they circled and circled me, eyeing me to see whether I would make it or not. The good news is they passed on over to somewhere else. Often times in life, it seems like something ominous is circling you—rising debt or rumors of layoffs or a loved one has a terminal disease. Remind yourself in those times that life is better than it seems. That'll it pass… as you Live Positive and make a life worth living today. GREAT VALUE! GREAT VALUE!
