From North Carolina pastor John Pavlovitz:
People Gave Their Lives So You Could Vote.
Maybe You Could Give A Few Hours
If America were placed in your hands alone, how much would you give to protect it?
Would you be willing to be assassinated in front of your children?
Would you allow yourself to be beaten in the street until nearly dead?
Would you consent to be hung from a tree surrounded by cheering families?
Would you slowly starve yourself until your body simply expired?
Would you intentionally face bullets and fire hoses and vicious dogs and baseball bats?
Would you be willing to lose your livelihood, your family, your friendships, or your very life?
Fortunately for you, you’re not being asked to do any of those things right now.
They have already been done for you.
