I wake up to quiet. I enjoy drinking a refreshing cup of coffee and knowing that I don't have to worry about incoming rockets that make me race to a bomb shelter. I know that I am blessed and I am so very thankful. But I also know that my freedom didn't come without costing someone their way of life to change things.
We are so blessed and it is so nice to relax and enjoy it that it's hard to image why a person would sacrifice this way of life to help others enjoy the same luxuries that we have.
But I know that we are blessed to be a blessing and that becomes a crossroads for me.
It would be so easy to lean back and talk about what needs to change and complain about the government and the politicians who seem to making all the decisions for our country, but now I'm going to beg to differ!
I AM NOT THE GOVERNMENT! I AM NOT A POLITICIAN! I believe that when Jesus set me free that I have become a person with a different perspective and a different outlook. I don't need to get a vote on it and I don't need permission to make a difference. I can because I have been called, chosen and empowered to live above what is going on in this world.
I can make (MY Choice, My decision) this world a better place! Because I know that God's love and favor rests on me (by Jesus' sacrificial atonement) that I bring that to my world that He puts me in. Wow, is that ever empowering to me! I get to bring a bit of Heaven to earth! Maybe not to a crowd, but maybe to a little person who needs me to look into their eyes and let them know they are important.
What are you doing to bring Heaven to earth?
Just saying. .
