Loving God,
Thank You for the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. We honour their courage, their sacrifice, and the hope they passed on to future generations. As we remember them, help us to be grateful for the freedoms we enjoy and to live with the same spirit of generosity and commitment.
We thank You most of all for Jesus, who gave everything so that we might know Your love without end. In His life, death and rising again, You show us what true love looks like—a love that never gives up and shapes generations to come. Help us to trust in You each day and to live our lives shaped by Your kindness, Your strength and Your grace. Bless our nation, we pray. Teach us to be heroic in the everyday moments of life as we seek to follow the example Jesus has set before us.
In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
