Chaplain’s Column
- Welcomed, not Condemned
I hope
everyone is doing well and safe.
I don’t know
about you, but lately I haven’t felt very welcome.
As a matter
of fact, watching the news and social media the last few weeks, I feel like I
and my Southern Brethren are constantly being condemned.
And for what?
For loving and cherishing our ancestors.
But not by
God! Thanks to the gift of the blood of
our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, we are not condemned, but loved and
cherished.
Isaiah 61:7
tells us that, “instead of your shame, you shall have double honor.”
The Bible
also reminds us that “…there is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus”
(Romans 8:1).
We obviously
cannot ignore the world we live in, but we will continue to honor our “Godly
Heritage” and we can have solace and hope in the fact that we are loved by God
and that He has conquered the world.
May God
continue to watch over you and your families and protect you all.
And may God
save the South!
Remember those
on our prayer list.
