Verbally consecrated by Lincoln’s famous speech, Gettysburg was physically and emotionally consecrated by the actions of those who fought its famous battle. In Lincoln’s brief Gettysburg Address, he says that those gathered in the town after the battle were meeting in a place of unfinished work that had been nobly advanced.
Every place has the potential to be consecrated by action. Every place can be a Gettysburg. What will you do today to consecrate where you are by work nobly advanced? You have the opportunity if not to complete unfinished noble work, then to advance it for others. And so on.
