CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
On December 7, 1941 American’s on the east coast woke up to learn that the Japanese had lead an unprovoked attack on our country. It was later learned that in the attack 2403 Americans were killed. And our country went to war.
The attack caused thousands upon thousands of men to volunteer to go out and defend their country, states, cities, families and ways of life. Gallantry was seen when these men laid down their lives to save each other during WWII.
In our society we lose sight of that, we live for ourselves, or maybe a few close to us like wives and kids. We live to make money, buy a house, drive a fast car, or sometimes old car… But rarely do we live for each other and even more rarely does someone make the sacrifice for another.
The men of WWII laid down their lives for their friends. Time after time these men jumped on grenades, charged enemy entrenchments, and gave their lives so others could live. They died for their friends.
That makes me think of F3 and the friends I have made here, but also of John 15:13 where Jesus says:
“Greater love has no on than this; to lay down one’s life for his friends”
Jesus died on the cross for His friends, which means because He died for our sins He knows all of us intimately. Which means we are all His friends.
