     Is there mercy for you?
     Oh, Soldier!  There is mercy whether you have murdered thousands or if you have 
had a slip of the tongue.
     There is mercy.
     There is not permissiveness, but there is mercy - big difference.  Permissiveness
sets aside the law, but mercy sees the heart.
     Soldier of the Cross, the enemy will come at you, especially in the night.  He will lie 
to you , accuse you, and present evil thoughts about others.
     He wants you to feel dirty and he wants you to feel like a failure.
     Why are you a Soldier of the Cross?  Because nothing else attracts you.  You feel
weak and small, but you are attracted to Him alone.
     Do not hesitate to approach Him.
     Yes, He is firm.
     Yes, He is immovable.
     Yes, He is Perfect.
      But His gracious Mercy and  Loving kindness marks our commander.
     Soldier, there is nowhere else to go.
     Trust His understanding and tender Nature today.
