I was able to catch a snippet of "Sarah Palin's Alaska" on YouTube, and at one point in the video while they are shooting, Bristol aims and fires at the targets, but misses. Because of that, Bristol gives up and wants to go home, but Sarah tells her to "Never retreat, just reload."
How true is that for Christians today? We are constantly in a spiritual fight (think about it: billboards, radio, family, tv shows, commercials, work, friends, etc!) against Satan, and often times, our instinct is to retreat.
Don't misunderstand me, I know how exhausting it can be, and some Christians are in a harder battle than what others are, and yet some are able to withstand more than what others are. But after awhile, we want to retreat. But how much more effective would we be when we reload and fire at the enemy than just tuck our tails and run?
Shouldn't that be our motto? "Never retreat, just reload." I think that it sums up how we should fight.
Yeah, it sums it up quite well....
