     ". . .And when the battle's over, we will wear a crown. . ." 
     Remember that great old hymn?  The battle will be over and it is important to
remember that fact.
     We are not fighting to have our earthly rights established, but we are engaged
in warfare against principalities and powers of darkness.
     Someday it will all be over and we will enjoy reviewing eternally the great reward
for each moment of obedience.
     Soldier, keep your bags packed.
     We are aliens here and as we recognize Him more quickly and completely, that
fact becomes clearer all the time.
     Our rights here are not important.
     We are to make sure our treasure is in heaven, and we could be there tomorrow!
     How can you tell where your heart is?  By the things that upset you.
     When you are ill-treated, listen to yourself relate the event.  Then tell the Lord.  He 
will put things in perspective and that means if it's not eternal, its not critical.
