The hearts of men...

Photo by Tiffany Phillips I love this country and it's wonderful privilege of freedom. As priceless and precious as freedom is, it is never free. Concerning eternity, Jesus Christ/God the Father paid the highest price, his life so that others can live and if you're alive He's got everything to do with it. Destruction is cheap and ramped and there is so much of it. I'm not out to defend war at all costs but when it means sacrificing life in order to preserve it because of the evil in the hearts of men who kill, steal and destroy life then it's worth it, fighting to protect innocent life. So, thank you again to all who are serving and sacrificing and those families that support you. Your gift is priceless and is not taken lightly by this U.S. citizen.
Recently I've been reading a fictional book by Karen Kingsbury, one of my favorite authors, titled: Ever After. It portrays the very real concerns of the war in the Middle East very well on both sides of the issue.
I can't help but quote this relevant scripture once again:
"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13
