I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Galatians 2:20
Growing up on a Christian Campus for the evening worshIp one of old favorites was the song " We are one in the Spirit we are one in the Lord." This song had the ability to penetrate deep within ones heart and touch the hearts of many as they sang along at the evening worship service. The song went on to say that they will know we are Christians by our love. Our daily walk with Christ is not just a time when we sense his spirit within but overflows to our daily Ives as we reach out to those in need.
The equilateral triangle has for thousands of years been symbolic of a sacred trinity. A pastor once elucidated our spiritual walk as viewed as 3 sides of an equilateral triangle; one being spiritual and the others physical and social. Christ is not just evident in our spiritual dimension but also becomes a part of our physical and social dimension.
Martin Luther King Jr. the civil rights activists and beloved pastor of many, delivered a very powerful sermon where he said, “If you want to say that I was a drum major, say that I was a drum major for justice, “Say that I was a drum major for peace. I was a drum major for righteousness. And all of the other shallow things will not matter.’’this sermon was so moving that the architects of the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in Washington abbreviated these lines to be inscribed on the memorial’s statue of the pastor and leader.
Thought:- What do you want people to say is your drum major?
They will know we are Christians by our Love.
