1 Cross + 3 Nails = 4 Given

As Christians we don't celebrate disorder. We are aware of man's depravity and our stomachs churn at the thought of it. We see the downfall of humanity. We see sin in every aspect of the world. We don't celebrate the disorder. We do the opposite.

Sin is disgusting. Why should we celebrate it? We want to get as far away from it as possible. But sin is rooted so deeply within us, so how can we do this?

"As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us."

God has already done it for us. As Christians we celebrate not disorder, but the order that comes from God.

We celebrate life.

God has given us life and that is what we praise Him for.

So what do we do with that? In this world that celebrates disorder Christians must be a light to shine amongst the sinners. We must show them the saving grace of Christ and the joy we find in His life.

The only difference between the rest of the world and ourselves is that we are forgiven. Let's live joy filled lives as a testimony to Christ. Let's make them wonder what it is we have that they don't. Let's share with them what life is like.

Let's make a difference in this world.
