On this day, 21 April 2007, Army Pvt. Michael J. Slater, 19, of Scott Depot, W.Va.; assigned to the 407th Brigade Support Battalion, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, Fort Bragg, N.C.; died from wounds sustained when his vehicle rolled over during combat operations in Taji, Iraq. We must never forget those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation.
1 Corinthians 15:58
Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

The Stock Market can be fickle. Friends can disappoint us. Nothing is truly sure except one thing, or better yet, our very special ONE person — Jesus! If we build our lives on his work, love, grace, power, and plan, we can hang in, persevere, and even triumph because what we do for the Lord and with the help of the Lord matters eternally. It will not be work done in vain. Why? Because the Lord is raised from the dead and at work in our lives!
