We recently had a blood drive here at the church. It was a huge success and it is our prayer that many lives were saved by the few pints of blood that we, as a community, gave. Without the giving of our blood, some people might die. Jesus gave His blood that we could all be saved and none of us would have to die.
Some people can t give blood.
It s usually because of certain medications, dizziness, an illness, or just the fact that some can t stand the sight of blood. But if we were ever to have an accident or need major surgery, we could definitely receive blood. We would need that blood to live. Whether we can give blood or not, we can all accept it. Out blood type dictates who we can receive blood from, but there are such things as universal donors.
