Many people have made the ultimate sacrifice, but only one Man paid the ultimate sacrifice

"For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." Mark 10:45

The American Flag

represents

 Our Pride

 Our freedom, our reason for fighting

And our protection

BUT...

The Cross represents something even greater.

It represents where true freedom and protection came from. And the One who hung upon that cross, represents the Ultimate Sacrifice that was paid once and for all for each and every one of us. Because of Christ we have everlasting life, hope, freedom, and the promise of VICTORY. So though the flag stands for America's freedom, Christ and the cross stand for ALL man's freedom. 

Jesus there has nor will there ever be a greater sacrifice than the one You paid. Thank You for dying for each and every one of us. Help us not to forget or overlook that salvation is for ALL man. Amen
