Yard Signs


It is a time of year when signs start popping up in yards across communities in these United States.  These signs indicate support of a candidate running for prosecutor, or sherriff or, some other noteworthy office.

Obviously, these signs identify the owner of a particular yard with the name on the sign and I suppose, by default, as being opposed to that candidates well-esteemed opponent.

More than three thousand years ago, a man named Joshua stood before a group of Jews and told them "Choose you this day whom you will serve... but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."  In a sense, Joshua was putting a campaign sign for his God in his front yard.

It takes bravery to make such a stand, but in the end it is totally worth it.  For, Jesus has promised to honor those who honor Him.
