Warrior in the Army of God

Not long ago I read a book that touched me deeply. As Eugene Peterson would say, I ate this book! (EP wrote a book called, "Eat This Book")

For those men who do not know who you are, and for those women who want to know who men are, this is a great start. Start here and then go back to the Bible and finish there.

In a quick view, here is how the book touched me. Every day, or as often as I remember I say the following to myself:

I am a Warrior
I am a Warrior in the Army of God
God is my Commander and God is my Friend, God calls me Friend
I do not know what this day will bring, but I know
That my Commander will not send me into battle without all that I need, and
My Friend will not let me go through the day without helping me if I need help.
So whatever this day may bring, I can face the day

I am a Warrior
I am a Warrior in the Army of God
God is my Commander and my Friend.
