Good Morning, Just curious, are we free to send out a message for each nation's?Remembrance Day? I did not see a message about the Dutch Remembrance of the Dead on the 4th of May for example, or for the? 20th of May for the National Day of Remembrance of Cambodia.

Today is Memorial/Remembrance Day which has been a day to honor the Defenders in this world for a long time. This is the day that most if not all countries on Earth honor and remember those who stood up in defense of us to keep us all safe and protected at the cost of their lives and also those who stood in defense and survived during the battles, but passed on later.
Those I include among those worthy of the honor of being remembered on Memorial Day for their service to keep us all safe are the members of the Military (Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines and the Space Force). I also consider those who serve in the National Guard, and those who are first responders aka the Police, Firemen, EMS and other groups in the United States who help the people of their states and stand in defense of them and those who stand in defense of the people of the cities in other countries and paid the price of their lives to keep those people safe as being worthy of the honor and respect and of being remembered on Memorial/Remembrance Day as well.
For those reading this message who had family members or friends who served to keep us all safe please know that I, Connie Green, thank them for their service and their willingness to try and keep us all safe. If they are still alive, I hope they are having a good life. I know once they do pass on to whatever they consider the afterlife to be they will be in? a place of honor because they were willing to stand up and protect us all as much as they could.
I know the loss of their lives is a point of sadness for their family and friends, given I lost my Father who served in the Air Force. I also know without a doubt that they are in a place of honor in the afterlife, whatever they consider it to be. I hope this message is a source of comfort for their families and friends who are still living here on Earth thanks to their Family Member's and friend's sacrifices.
I also offer this prayer I found for those who have passed on like my Father did several years ago after many years of being a veteran:? Today we bow our heads and our hearts to You, Lord, that we may remember those who paid the ultimate price by giving their lives for their country. We can never be grateful enough for the sacrifices they made, and we are humbled by their willingness to put their own lives aside for the benefit of ours. Father, carve their sacrifices into our hearts so we may never forget the loss of these heroes.
We pray for this in the Holy name of Your son Jesus. Amen.
I hope and pray those of you who have family members and friends who served and have passed on to Heaven, will have a day of peace and I know that one day you will see your family members and friends who stood to keep us all safe again one day when you to reach heaven. May God by whatever name you call him keep you all safe and at peace.
God bless you all on this Memorial day of Honor for our Heroes.
