It’s been
calculated that around 1,346,000 American soldiers have given
their lives in battle in the history of this nation[1]. That’s a lot of men and women who have
sacrificed their lives for you and me. They died for our freedom and our
safety. They gave everything so that we might enjoy our life here in America.
This is why we celebrate Memorial Day.
Memorial
day first started after the Civil War to remember the American soldiers who
gave their lives in that war. It was then extended to all soldiers who have
given their lives for our Country[2].
We owe these soldiers so much. We should be so thankful for all that they have
done for us. The only proper response for us to have is gratitude.
At
this point you might be wondering why I’m talking about Memorial Day on this
blog. After all, this is a blog dedicated to following Jesus. The reason is
simply this: Memorial Day is a great reality and it points us to an even
greater reality. Memorial Day serves to remind us of those who gave their lives
in battle, but it can also serve to remind us of another who gave His life:
Jesus Christ.
The
similarities between the soldiers who have died and Jesus are many. Think with
me about this verse from Galatians:
“For
freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again
to a yoke of slavery.” (Galatians 5:1 ESV)
Why
have so many people given their lives for this Country? Freedom. This is the
exact same reason why Christ gave His life; for our freedom. Christ died to set
us free! Free from death, sin, Satan, guilt, shame, and punishment. Christ has
set you and me free by giving His very life. This is a truly great reality. God
in human flesh gave his own life for sinners like you and me.
So
my challenge for us is a simple one. Let us remember not only the soldiers who
have given their lives, but also the Son who gave His life. Let us all think
about the one who gave up everything for our eternal freedom. Let us “stand
firm” in our freedom this Memorial Day. We have been given a great gift; let us
remember it.
