On Veterans Day, we honor the brave men and women who have served our nation in uniform, defending the freedoms we enjoy and too often take for granted.
Behind every veteran is a story of service and sacrifice. Time spent away from loved ones. Important moments missed. A willingness to put country before self.
Their service deserves our heartfelt gratitude. But how often do we take the time to express it?
This Veterans Day, I want to challenge you to turn your gratitude into action.
Find one meaningful way to honor a veteran today or in the week ahead. Consider delivering thank-you cards to a local veterans’ home, volunteering with the USO or a veterans’ organization or personally thanking a veteran and taking a moment to hear his or her story.
Please also join me in praying for our veterans and their families, especially those facing challenges long after their military service has ended.
To every veteran reading this: Thank you for your service, your sacrifice and your love of country. We are grateful for you!
May God bless our veterans, their families and the United States of America.
