"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.

Make the Best Use of My Time

So, then, be careful how you live. Do not be unwise but wise, making the best use of your time because the times are evil. Therefore, do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. -Eph 5:15-17
With so much to do it seems impossible to make the best use of your time.  My down time, like tv, surfing the internet, video games, etc. can take up an awful lot of time without our realizing it.  I'm not saying some down time isn't necessary.  But I always need to ask myself, am I spending more time goofing off than I am on focusing on the Lord?  One look at the headlines, and it reads like something contrived decades ago-so sensational it makes no sense.  But the days are evil.  And now, more than ever, it is so important to focus on things of the Lord.  If I want to know the Lord's will, I mustn't be foolish.
