As Memorial Day approaches, our hearts turn to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice, laying down their lives for others. In John 15:13, Jesus teaches us about the greatest expression of love—selflessly giving oneself for the sake of others. This profound truth echoes through the ages, resonating not only in the heroic deeds of soldiers but also in the sacrificial love of Christ on the cross.

In a world often characterized by self-interest and division, the message of love stands as a beacon of hope and transformation. It reminds us that our purpose on this earth is intricately tied to our capacity to love one another. Just as Jesus laid down His life for us, we are called to emulate His love by serving and sacrificing for those around us. This Memorial Day, let us honor the memory of the fallen by embodying the selfless love that they exemplified, and may we never forget that love is why we are here.
