She told how it:</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Looks</li>
<li>Tastes</li>
<li>Makes her feel</li>
</ul>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><strong>Anything to die for seems very important. </strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong> </strong>People want it because it:</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Looks wonderful</li>
<li>Makes them happy</li>
<li>Has great value</li>
</ul>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><strong>Most people will not actually die for a piece of pie (or other food). </strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">However, they will pay a high price for it. They want it that much.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Besides food, items to die for might include:</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Clothing</li>
<li>Jewelry</li>
<li>Cars</li>
<li>Houses</li>
<li>Trips</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: left;">None of those is worth people giving their lives.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><strong>However, many people will die for what they believe. </strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">A few who go <a href="https://dianaderringer.com/beyond-the-call-of-duty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">beyond the call of duty</a> include:</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><a href="https://dianaderringer.com/cost-an-arm-and-a-leg/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Veterans</a></li>
<li>Missionaries</li>
<li>Police officers and firefighters</li>
<li>Others who protect family and friends</li>
</ul>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><strong>God loved the world enough to send Jesus to die for it. </strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Jesus died so <a href="https://dianaderringer.com/about-2/my-faith-journey" target="_blank" rel="noopener">anyone who follows him can have eternal life</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">“God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8 NIV).</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"> Thanks to Melissa Scott Taylor for the suggestion and to Winona Smith for the photo of one of her wonderful pies.</p>
