Sacrifice

I had one of "those weeks". I was very disappointed with the results of the voting for Amendment 26 in Mississippi. My heart was broken, in fact. I could not understand why more Christian would not take a stand?

Then, today came. It is Veteran's Day. There are so many who have serve and sacrificed their lives, free time, and work to fight for our freedom. The freedom to speak, the freedom to worship, the freedom to do whatever we want......just wish more of us would think about that when we think of the freedom of "choice".

I have been challenged to "Choose What is Right". Yes, we didn't stop abortion. I can't stop others from abusing people, feelings, and property. I can't even change a person's heart.

But I know Who can! And that is what I choose everyday. I choose to serve and worship God, the Almighty. I choose to be a better wife, mother, daughter, sister, niece, aunt, friend, etc. I choose to smile. I choose to show love to others who need God's love. I choose to face the day not for me, but for Him.

“Blessed are they who maintain justice, who constantly do what is right.” Psalm 106:3
