Are you walking
on Holy Ground or just a Dead Man Walking?
I had been
thinking about what it would be like to leave a legacy, but couldn’t quite come
up with a summary of events that led to a legacy until this morning in church
when we sang songs about “Holy Ground”.
When I think
about Holy Ground I usually think about being in Church, but Holy Ground
involves all that a Christian does and says and everywhere he goes. Once
God comes into your life you carry Him everywhere. You are on Holy Ground in every walk of your
life whether it involves the people you meet, the things that you do and say,
or even the food you put into your mouth and your body. You are on Holy Ground because God lives
within your body, mind, and soul.
Even with God in
your life, there are times when events leave you struggling with life’s
situations, and you may be tempted to
say you are just getting through the day much like a “dead man walking.” However, with God, all things are
possible. God is mighty, strong, and powerful.
These traits He gives to His people.
God can make the weak strong or the strong weak. When Gods' traits and His power are applied and added to the armor of the Christian spirit, a
legacy is being formed. Although the Christian may feel life no longer needs
them, and they are much like a “dead man walking” their love for others, theirs
deeds of kindness, their zest for God is actually leaving a legacy. They will be remembered as having walked on
Holy Ground.
