"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.

BUSY

It really is hard to keep on track.  As I ponder my day, and lament over all that I did not get done, I am forced to evaluate how I use my time and how I prioritize.  Don't get me wrong....I'm pretty good at time management.  I tend to get a pretty good bang for my buck outta the time I have.  Still, there is always room for improvement.  I imagine God feels kind of like I do when I take my son to Wal Mart or Target...I have something I need to get, but my son gets sidetracked by all the things he sees, he wants, and HAS to have, touch or play with. Look at this book, isn't this toy cool?  Wow!  I really like this bubble bath.  Wait a second, I want to see what kind of cookies these are.  I get home, cook dinner, clean up after dinner.  Sit down with my computer to make a quick purchase.  But what happened on Facebook today?  hmmm....are those earrings on sale?  Let me just send a quick email.....etc.  BUSY--Burdened under Satan's yoke.  Chuck Missler once made a comment about the eyes being the window to Satan, the ears the window to God.  We see the world and want things.  We need to listen and obey.  As I finish this, its no more facebook tonight.  Its time to pray!
