Train Hard

"But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified." 
1 Corinthians 9:27 (NKJV)

An old Major-General from the South African Defence Force said something I will never forget, he said: "Train hard, fight easy."  Very profound words! 

You know it's very easy to walk on the water, in an instant, but it's hard to walk on the land, daily, in the drudgery of our continual grind... every single morning. We really need to discipline our lives as Soldiers of The Cross. We cannot blow hot and cold, it does not do the Lord any Justice and it makes us very poor ambassadors... One day praising everybody, the next day cursing everybody - We can't live like that! We need to discipline ourselves in what we say, what we do, what we think, what we read and what we watch on our devices or television. 

Today let us be Good Soldiers of the Lord and train hard, then we will find that when we have to fight, we can "fight easy".

Jesus bless you
