November 26 Devotion

Our Operation Whitetail events for the year 2024 came to an end last week. Truly blessed to get to do what we do. We try to close all of our events with a message and communion. During the communion meditation, we talk about servitude. We discuss how our nation’s military serves us all. Without even knowing us, they sign that line, becoming a part of our military, and they serve us. All of us. That includes you and me. And our families. And our friends. This humbles me. 

We are all called to serve. Called to serve in some capacity. We all have talents that we can use to serve. I like to think that this part of our lives really show who we are. Many of the ministry’s volunteers do not hunt or fish. And that is actually fantastic. Because many other things that need to be done do not include hunting or fishing. We have things going on behind the scenes that include our volunteers. Serving! 

And that brings us to this. The ultimate act of service: Jesus sacrificing himself on the cross. Serving us all. Paving the way for us to have eternity with him. Is there any other example of what we should follow? Not really. I don’t mean we need to sacrifice ourselves. But we need to devote ourselves to what we are called to do. Love God. Love others. Serve the world. And in that order. Let’s let God lead our hearts as we serve others. If we do that, just imagine who might come to know Jesus. Who in your circle of friends might come to know Jesus. Who in your family might come to know Jesus. What at an incredible testimony that would be.
