Before The Chaos (5/26)

Good morning from close friends Brett Hobbs and Michael Barone. We are here every Monday morning to help prepare you Before The Chaos! This is a special Memorial Day segment. God Bless America.

Honor service.

Today, as we gather with loved ones and enjoy the comforts of our daily lives, it's important to take a step back and reflect on the price that was paid for our freedom. The peace and privileges we so often take for granted were earned through the sacrifice, courage, and unwavering dedication of those who served in our armed forces. On this Memorial Day, we pause to honor their legacy and remember that our way of life exists because of their selfless service.

Let’s remember to never take our freedom for granted.

Reflection

“What can I do to give, rather than take, from my community?”

“Are there times when I am caught up in political narratives, and forget to be grateful for all that we have? Are there times when I forget all that was sacrificed for me?”

Take Action Task

Find someone who served (we all know someone) and write to them. Thank them. It will make their day (and yours). Do it now.

One Achievable Goal

Set one goal that must be completed before week’s end.

Ours is to let loose and enjoy ourselves. Its summer. Go out. Have that drink. Or have that dessert. Hard work deserves reward.

VERSE

John 15:13

“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”

Closing

As we honor the memory of those who gave everything for our freedom, let us carry their legacy forward through gratitude and service. Wishing you a reflective, peaceful, and meaningful Memorial Day.
