Soldier of The Cross, why are we told to let go of all that would encumber?
Because if we are to serve, we must be completely available. What does that mean? It means that we must be in prayer, specifically to avoid concept. It means that we must be in prayer, specifically to move into unknown territory. It means that we must be available to the Frontier of Faith.
There is a worshipful and beautiful bending of the soul that takes place in prayer. When the Soldier agrees with God and submits to Him, things fall into place in the unseen and He is free to operate.
Soldier, agree with God.
Aloud and aloud.
