Soldiers

       Soldiers...what's it mean to be soldiers for Christ? To be totally engrossed in fighting, for Him! To put your trust in Him one hundred percent, no matter the cosequences!  It's unique. You feel totally safe and yet totally exposed at the same time. It's a feeling usually described as...peace. To feel so secure in His care, and yet totally revealed to danger. At the same time there are soldiers of evil, of the devil! In John 19:2-3 it says this: "And the soldiers twisted a crown of thorns and put it on His head. And they put on a purple robe. Then they said, "Hail, King of the Jews!" And they struck Him with their hands." (NKJV) How could soldiers meant for good, crucify our King like that? It's because they belong to their own father...the devil. There is a  Mighty God, who has every right to strike us dead! But chose to let us sinners, nail Him to the cross. The Glorious Cross. But let's rejoice for the good soldiers, 2 Timothy 2:3, "You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ." (NKJV). Let's ask ourselves...Are You A Soldier for Christ?
