Initially, I was going to write this in my "Adventures" blog but I decided against it and it will soon be apparent why. Just a little backdrop. My brother and I went to see the Air Force/Army game this past Saturday (Nov 7, 2009) and before the game started they had several men parachute into the stadium. One had the American flag and I got this picture (as well as others) of him just before he landed. As I looked at this picture today I couldn't help but think about our daily walk. My daily walk. A time may come very soon where I have to decide whether or not I'm going to jump out of the plane, trusting God for protection and I could die. Will I keep the flag fully raised until I am taken down? As an ambassador to the Kingdom am I willing to die for my God? I hope and pray that when the time comes where I have to decide whether or not I stay in the plane or take that jump of faith, I will jump. Paul said it best, "To live is Christ, but to die is gain." That's faith!
"Trust in the Lord with all Thy heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him and he shall direct your path." Proverbs 3:5-6
Have a good day!
