Soldiers...

"A soldier never leave another soldier behind, dead or alive"... that was a statement our pastor told a group of young men starting in their faith. Got a few of us to chat. That is NOT what happens in the Army of God. Too many soldiers have been left behind or are being left behind.
Ecclesiastes 4:12 says, " A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken." What are the soldiers, (generals, captains, etc) of God's army doing today? Make a mistake, loose your footing, etc, you get left behind or worse, are left in the battlefield to die. Too many have exploded or just wander around in their confusion, past or even their doubts...

What are you doing if you know of a soldier, one who has fought at one point and today is not in the ranks? Maybe it is living truly the Gospel, being that chord to strengthen them, maybe it is being the one who will stand with them in the line, give a hand.

In the army, "never leave one behind"!!
