One
day, a drill sergeant came out and threw a hand grenade into a group of young
soldiers. The men all ran away and took cover away from the grenade. Then the
drill sergeant told them that the grenade was not set to explode and he just
did it to see their reaction.
The
next day, a newly recruited soldier joined the group. The drill sergeant told
the other soldiers not to tell the new soldier what was going to happen. As the
drill sergeant came out and threw the grenade into the crowd of soldiers, the
new soldier, not knowing it wasn't going to explode, threw himself on top of
the grenade to prevent it from killing the other men. He was willing to die for
his fellow soldiers.
That
year, the young man was awarded the only medal for courage and bravery that had
not been won during battle.
"Greater
love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends."
(John 15:13)
"For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love towards us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:7-8).

My Dear young friend, God has a greater love upon you even today. Return back to His love.
