A Scout Is Reverent

Realizing that people of many different faiths read this blog, I am going to write what reverent means to me as a Christian on this Easter morning.  If it is not your belief, please know that I respect that you worship and pray in your own fashion.

The passage John 3:16 is one of the most known passages in the Bible.  It speaks of how God loves us so much, that he was willing to give his own child so that we can be cleansed of our sins and be able to have eternal life.  How can we show our reverence to Him?  Being reverent isn’t performed by sitting in a pew each Sunday.  While that certainly is a good step, we have to live in reverence.   The scouts, and we, should act in a Godly manner every day.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
– John 3:16 (KJV)
