The 142nd regiment of the United States Army was one of the most decorated of all during World War II. It was made up of Japanese Americans, some of whom were recruited from internment camps where Japanese citizens had been placed after Pearl Harbor. The 142nd served with extraordinary distinction, fighting in Europe. Some of these soldiers helped liberate Dachau, the concentration camp where thousands of Jews had been executed.
These young men went to great lengths to show to our country that they were true Americans.
As Christians, we should spend as much effort proving our citizenship by the way in which we live.
But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,
So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,
Give it some thought.
