Deuteronomy 18:9 to 19:21; Joel 1; Luke 11:37-54

Eighty years ago today almost 4,500 allied soldiers were killed on the beaches of Normandy, France as the D-Day invasion took place. Thousands more were killed in the days that followed before World War II was brought to an end. The sacrifice of those soldiers was with a view to defeating the enemy and restoring freedom to Western Europe. Almost 2,000 years ago our Lord Jesus Christ gave His life in an even greater cause, for the eternal blessing in salvation of repentant sinners. His was the ultimate sacrifice at Calvary. Have you by faith come into the good of His great work? —Philip A. Kaye
Trust now in the crucified Saviour,
Salvation He offers to you. —S. M. Sayford
