My natural as well as my spiritual sister used this phrase on yesterday. I sat back and meditated on this and if you preach you know what the next words I'm going to say, "Message". I got a message just from that phrase alone. Everyone won't leave you for dead but many have. When we don't allow ourselves to be used of God we are leaving someone for dead, when we refuse to be renewed we are leaving someone for dead, when we are not satisfying our husband Jesus Christ we are leaving someone for dead. When we give up and throw in the towel and say what is the point we are leaving someone for dead. When we don't keep our house clean (Spiritual) we are leaving someone for dead.

It is not about us but about someone else. Too many times have we been selfish believing that if I can only make it in. Remember, we are part of the body of Christ (hand, feet, arm, finger, neck, back and etc.) no matter which part you are it takes the whole body to operate and if one part of the body is damage it puts a strain on the other parts. Don't get me wrong the body will still operate and go on but when Christ made the body it was made with all its parts. If I see you drowing and not throw you a life raft or I can swim and not try to bring you ashore to safety, I have left you for dead.

I look at Christ and him dying, he not only died but he went further and went to hell to take back what the devil stole. A life for a life is my motto. Jesus gave his life for ours, will be give our life for another. I just wanted to share a little of this because it was on my mind.
