Marines behind one soldier
May 18, 2021
It was once true that for every Marine on the battle field, there were 17 who provided, support, information, direction and everything that Marine might need to be successful on the front line. Weapons, protective gear, transportation. Going to serve widows in developing countries, I have folks praying, giving money to purchase sewing machines and pay trainers, selecting tailor or bakery trainers, missionaries who advise me, a pastor who teaches, strengthening me. Friends pray for my safe travel and housing. And then I go.
Are you facing a tough task, sensing a call to serve in a hard place? Gather your team, my friend. Imagine that the enemy sees you coming with 17 strong support folks close behind you. You’ll be stronger to serve, and you’ll be blessed together.
