Stuff That Matters In Life

Don’t let the title confuse you. I am 100% pro-life. But a friend brought up an interesting thought yesterday.

Let me see if I can get this to make sense: She said that in America, life is so precious. In other countries, ie Libya and other war-torn nations, so many people die. We always think dying is a bad thing and value life so much that we would never choose to die – we don’t want to die for anything, we are not willing to die for any cause. That means we have fears of dying for Christ. If we are not willing to die for Him, we can’t live for Christ to the fullest. Fear holds us back. We fear suffering, we fear being rejected. Perhaps it’s because we value life too much.
