John 15:13 - Greater love has no one than this...

NIV Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends
KJV Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

Today we recognize the brave soldiers who've died defending our country. They have given us the gift of freedom with their lives, and for that, we are deeply indebted to them and their families.

The ultimate sacrifice for our eternal freedom was made by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. While we were still sinners, he laid down his life for us so that we might live. (Romans 5:8)

Proverbs 12:16 - A prudent man overlooks an insult

NIV A fool shows his annoyance at once,
but a prudent man overlooks an insult.
KJV A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame.

Self-control is a characteristic of wisdom. When we react too quickly and with annoyance, it makes us look foolish.

When we take the time to listen, answer with patience, and overlook insults, we act wisely.

Instead of closing the door with insults, we are to leave the door wide open for reconciliation through wisdom.
