Shoulder Man

How could I forget This battle isn't over yet Satan offers up some short term gain Unto an everlasting death The rebellion pushes me to join And it's eternal blood their spilling With God I have the strength to fight back But I am not always willing "Take heart," says Jesus, from the edge of the road "Did I forsake you? Would I ever? Lock shields with me, my child, you'll see We can beat this foe together!" By Kyle Ezra kriticos

Indeed! Ephesians 6 describes putting on the whole armor of God, and then, you recall what it tells us to do: just stand. Hold your ground. Let Him fight for us. Just stand. Because He's already absorbed the cruelest blow.

Kyle great insight and honesty here. It is sometimes a battle my friend he is like a roaring lion seeking out to devour.

strong message, Kyle, truth for sure in the "but I am not always willing". Why is that, I ask myself.
