Blog Entry 164 of 214 The Daily Devo
My thoughts based upon each day's One Year Bible reading selection.

Remember the Alamo
Contributed by: Steve Jones   on 8/30/2008

From the New Testament portion of today's One Year Bible reading:

II Corinthians 4:12
So we live in the face of death, but this has resulted in eternal life for you.

While in Texas we visited the Alamo. Approximately two hundred men willingly chose to stay and defend the mission even though they knew it meant almost certain death. This is the reason that particular battle stands out among the 47 battles fought in the Texas Revolution. Over the thirteen day siege, they lived in the face of death, in order to win political freedom for Texas. Friends, we all live in the face of death, but how many of us do so in such a way as to win spiritual freedom for others?

I pray that today, you will live with purpose in the face of death. Please pray that for me.
