CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Today we spent time on “voliltion.” What got me thinking about it was a photo on social media that I saved a few years ago. It was a picture of the football field with Army and Navy playing. The caption said something about it being the only game that day where every player on that field was willing to die for me and my freedom. I also thought of my son-in-law, Travis. During one of his 8 tours of duty he received the Bronze Star for Valor because he chose to live by the Ranger creed to leave no man behind, put himself in harms way, and drag his wounded teammate to safety. Sua Sponte! I mentioned one of the last scenes of the movie, Saving Private Ryan, when Captain John Miller (a Ranger) tells Private Ryan to “earn this.” This disappointed many Army Rangers because they believe that a Ranger would not say something like that. Rangers don’t expect their service to be “earned”, there service is their own volition. Sua Sponte!
We celebrated Christ this past week. He chose to obey his Father on His own volition. Yes, in His prayer in the garden He did ask if there was some other way to accomplish His mission but he always came back to say that He would do the will of His Father. Jesus didn’t ask us to earn it. He did it by choice so that our sins would be forgiven, we would be declared justified in God’s eyes, and redemption could be ours. We don’t have to earn it. We only need to repent, profess Christ, obey, and follow. Not easy, but at least we know the way to everlasting joy and peace.
