“Let some veterans show you the scars that they have received in battle, and you will realize how much suffering, heartache and blood our freedoms have cost.
Out of this comes a great lesson to Christians. The Apostle Paul said, ‘I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus’ (Galatians 6:17, NKJV).
In other words, Paul said that he bore in his body the branding marks of a slave. When he called himself a servant of Jesus Christ, he did not mean a paid worker, as the word connotes today. He meant a slave, in utter subjection to the Master. But this subjection is borne out of love and devotion to Christ, and it ultimately brings liberty.” #VeteransDay
