...The General now...it's not just for insurance.

I really enjoyed the devotional today.  It talked about life bringing good and bad things and how we easily thank God for the many blessings, but when things aren't "going our way" we sometimes try to handle it by ourselves.  We might pray but it's quick and impersonal "God please help."   We typically put on our armor and fight the way we know how as best we can.  What we need to do is put it all on God.  Let Him lead this army of one, let Him be the General.  We have to have Faith...that seems to be a recurring phrase for me.  Matthew 17:20, we need only faith the size of a mustard seed to move mountains right?

Romans 8:28 "We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him."


I know that my love for Him is great, but not nearly as His love for me.



To change the pace...I had a very interesting night at Volleyball.  Amber and I ran into each other and she kneed me in the thigh.  I'm am still in so much pain, I'm just waiting for this HUGE bruise to show up on my leg.  I know it'll be there in the morning.  We'll see.
