All Life is Sacred, People More

In Matthew 12:12 Jesus said, "Of how much more value is a man than a sheep!" you would think the very opposite if you observed for very long life on earth these days. It seems that animals and plants are more important to our culture than human beings. Trying harming an eagle or a dolphin or cutting down a redwood. You will be put away for a long time. But you will be encouraged and possibly congratulated if you choose to end the life of a child who cannot yet speak for himself. How far has the morality of this generation of man fallen? How many more moral lapses do we need to witness before we are finally convinced of the total depravity of man?

We need to return to the Lord and cling to Him. set our minds on the things above, not the things of earth. Then we will be strengthened to rise above the regressing standards of a spiritually bankrupt world and firmly stand in the grace of God and in th strength of His might. As dark as the days living in a culture of death seem, those who walk in the light of the Lord will see the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.
