It is worn by linemen and all who appreciate and value them. “Shields of Strength is a Texas based Company. We stand behind our designs.”

What Inspired the Lineman Cross Design?
If you do not recognize this Lineman cross necklace, you probably do not live alongside the Texas Gulf coast. Shields of Strength created this jewelry accessory to honor the heroic men and women who serve the residents living along the Texas Gulf coast, who face intense, dangerous, hurricane storms next to some of the most vulnerable coastal areas of Texas. The aftermath of these storms leaves residents literally in the dark. People that live along the southern borders of Texas and as far inland as Galveston and Houston will recognize this symbolic stainless steel lineman’s jewelry accessory. Honor these brave and strong, both mentally and physically, men and women with either the stainless steel Lineman cross necklace or the precious 14K gold plated jewelry accessory.
What is the Meaning of John 1:4?
In him was life and that life was the light of all mankind. John 1:4
I. Christ, the Divine Word of God, Who became Human
John 1:1-10 states clearly that Christ is the Son of God, is the Word, always was and is and will be eternally a part of the Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In Him was life and this life is the Light of humankind (John 1:4).
II. God Revealed His Son and Jesus revealed the Father’s Mind
Sent by the Father, His Light gives purpose to the redeemed life. With the indwelling Holy Spirit, the redeemed soul can conquer sin, understand the Word, and utilize the unique gifts given through Him to service, and evangelism. The apostle John’s unexpected meeting with Christ led him to immediately follow Jesus (John 1:35-39). Redeemed souls do not necessarily need to leave their career as the apostles choose to do. John shows us that evangelizing, bringing people to faith, is a team effort between the redeemed and the Holy Spirit (John 16:8). Whatever your career, commercial fisher, or lineman, you have an opportunity to witness to all you meet about the Light of this world the Lord Christ Jesus.
