World War II and God

Some of you who read this know that my father was a WW II veteran. He served with the 82nd Airborne Division and made all of their combat jumps. He was incredible man and soldier. Sadly he died when I was 15 years old so I never got to hear some of those stories from war because I was always too young to know to ask. One of the stories I do know deals with the Battle of the Bulge.

If you have never heard of the Battle of the Bulge then you can read about it here. The entire battled lasted about a month. The US causalities during this month were 23,554 captured, 47,493 wounded and 19, 276 killed for a total of nearly 90,000 US casualties. This mean gave their lives in a valiant effort to win the bloodiest wars of all time. This war caused the death of over 50 million people. The blood that was spilled on these days would have a profound impact on the rest of the war. This was Germany's last great offensive and was truly the decisive victory on the Western Front.

While the sacrifices of these 19,000 men was great, it is nothing in comparison to the sacrifice of one man who died on a horrible and bloody cross nearly 2,000 years ago. The power of Christ blood and sacrifice is beyond anything that we can imagine. It has the power to transform lives. It has the power to rescue you and me from the pain and suffering of Hell.

If you have questions about this power, do not hesitate. There is no time like the present. If you have accepted this sacrifice in the past but do not feel as though His power in your life, then I would love to help you move in that direction. I look forward to hearing some of your comments.
