The Moment:

   We were created to enjoy the Lord and His handiwork at any given moment.    If you have made the decision to follow the Lord regardless of anything else, you are a Soldier of The Cross.  That means that He can have His way with anything and everything in your life.    So then Soldier, if you believe God's Word, He is in control and you can rest in that truth.  You are then free to live in the moment, because you do not need to entertain fear or regret.  You do not need to manipulate circumstances or individuals.    Your life is founded on the Rock of Ages, and you are free to attend to the needs of those directly in front of you.    The Soldier of The Cross must not ride the wave of tension and release - crisis and resolution.    Soldier, as you get older, make sure you are speaking about that very matter with Him.   Make sure you are telling him that you agree with Him.  Make sure you are not settling into patterns of self-protection and leaden earthly security.    There is no one else.  There is nothing else.    Look up and move on!
