One writer put it this way, “Men are not merely swept away by movements, they create movements. Heroes matter. Great men matter. So do evil ones.” In this case, two shots by one man started WW I that not only toppled four empires, but created the Middle East geography that’s still wreaking havoc today.
One man, Jesus Christ, is still changing the course of human events through one decision made before time began – to make us secure children of God (Eph. 1:3-11). His one choice, to listen to and follow the Father, started a movement that can’t be stopped.
Yes Jesus is also God, but that doesn’t diminish the choice He made. And whether we like it or not, our choices matter as well. Your choice to listen to and follow Jesus to walk in freedom over your drug of choice not only affects your life, but of those watching your life as well.
Don’t diminish the influential power one choice can make – either way. Who knows if a believer in Christ had made the choice to follow Christ and not religion that the person whose shots started a world war might have made a different choice that day.
Choose to exercise the truth today, it will set you free. Choose to follow Jesus today, others just may follow.
