Why do the men in the video below dedicate so much time and energy and risk life and limb “just” to rescue some elk?
I’d posit this answer: Efforts like this are precisely what we are created to do.
God didn’t make us in his image to sit all day in a cubicle or troll comment threads or squander one bit of this marvelous life (2 Corinthians 6:1).
We are each endowed with boundless compassion, empathy, resourcefulness, strength, and courage. We are miracle workers and waymakers — always seeking a sense of purpose and mission.
Please take 3 minutes to closely watch all of that in action:
Coda: I also feel certain that none of the men in the video checked first to see who the other guys voted for, if they got jabbed, what their sexual preference might be, which sports team they prefer, or where they stand on Ukraine, climate change, immigration, whatever.
In a moment of crisis — when humans are required to rapidly step into our most powerful potential — priorities become clear. Actions become automatic.
Just like this (30 seconds):
Take a good look around. We are collectively facing many crises at once — amid a spiritual war.
Translation: It’s high time we clarify our collective priorities and metaphorically save some elk.
