“and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt.” (Hebrews 6:6)
A statement I have heard more and more frequently as November 8th approaches is those who choose not to vote (whatever their rationale may be) are actively dishonoring the ultimate sacrifice others have made so we would have the right to choose our elected leaders. Considering the lengths that soldiers and activist for women and minorities, and so many others, had to take just so that we could push a button or check a box is sobering. This is sobering because we so easily forget was has been sacrificed for ourselves, as we benefit from those sacrifices.
Allow me to transition that thought to a spiritual one.
Does our daily conduct reflect honor towards Christ or does it dishonor His incredible sacrifice? Do we go through our days, making important decisions, without considering Christ’s sacrifice. While we may be able to honestly say that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior, the decisions we make throughout the day either honor or dishonor His sacrifice. Let us make decisions and live lives that honor our God, the only true leader that matters.
Let your light shine!
