This is a worthy piece that comes to DefCon readers from latter days
Dare we stand before the living God and declare the right to live our own lives the way that we see fit?
Still think God gave His life so that you could enjoy your “best life now” in this temporal world?
It is only when we completely ignore the depth of His sacrifice that we can make faith in Him to be something so shallow and self-serving.
While we were oblivious to our own plight and dead in our sin, Jesus died for us. Yet, how many times do we go about our own way each day…and not even notice Him? Do you think there is even one moment that God has not considered the life of His Son?

The video at the end is from the short film The Most. A powerful little film that I recommended in 2007.
I’ve watched ‘The Most’ once before.
Once was enough. Good clip though.
God bless.
I saw “The Most” several years ago as well. I especially liked the portrayal of the people on the train who were to be saved by the father’s actions: totally “unlovable”, uncaring, oblivious, “dregs.”
And yet God saved us anyway.
I was reminded of myself when I saw the faces on the train.
