In warfare, the greatest honor belongs not to the ones who survive, but to those that give the supreme sacrifice of their lives.
I thought about this for a long while. Looking for a deeper meaning. Truth is, there isn’t. There was a man named Jesus Christ who has done exactly that. He did it for us. Just like Him, we aim to hopefully grow into our roles as servants, and do exactly as he did. How many of us can say we are willing to lay our lives down, not just for the Lord, but for His people? Makes you think.
My God, I humbly set aside my own concerns for the struggles of those who need You the most. You are present always, Your grace is sufficient. Allow me to love everyone around me. Allow me to further pour out my overflowing cup, to those that are yet to be filled by You. Lord, I offer my life to You, take over.
Christi Crux Est Mea Lux
