Did I Say Thanks?

It's evening,, Jesus
Today was memorial day.
Did I say thanks for the soldiers who died for my freedom?
Did I ride by cemeteries without thinking of them?
Did I even forget what day it was?
I know it was a boating day.
I know it was a camp day.
I know it was an off day.

But you did remind me this afternoon,
Didn't you Lord?
You reminded me, and I did say thanks.
Be especially with the widows, the fatherless children.
Be,too, with the families of all the soldiers in Iraq,
And help them with any fear of death that memorial day might bring to their mind.
In Jesus name....
Amen
