"You are the light of the world..." Matt 5:14

This is our duty as Saints of the Most High. Yet, some days it is really hard to shine, isn't it? As soldiers in this spiritual battle, it is our mission to glorify the King of Kings with our lives. As tenants in the world, we fall prey to its seduction, dimming our light. It is for this reason that this blog was started. In the military, after action reports are used to review the activities of specific events. This retrospection forces analysis of these activities in light of the outcome. Likewise, willing soldiers of Christ are invited to briefly review their daily lives, and note where God is working, recognize where they have fallen short, and prepare for the next battle. The hope is to not only provide accountability for our daily actions, but to also recognize where God is working and the part he wants us to play in His mission.

Thankful God is Bigger

Coming off of a horrid night's sleep, I was preparing for the worst.  Surprisingly, I am ending the day thankful.  I am thankful that my God is bigger than any of the insanity in the world.  I am thankful for my family who cares for me needs, and my dearest friends who listen to me, encourage me, and keep me sane!  I am thankful for the blessings God has given me.  I am thankful for teachers willing to freely teach.  I am thankful for the Lord teaching me, so I feel like its all new and exciting.  I am thankful for like-minded people at my son's school.  I am thankful for dessert--no kidding!  When I look back over the conversations I had today, my safety as I bopped about, my family's health and protection, and so many other things, I am just overwhelmed!  How GREAT is our GOD!!!!
