DINGS AND SCARS OF BATTLE

"My favorite piece . . . the shield of faith. There's something appealing in the notion of carrying this picture of who you are into war. Then when, God willing, you come home, it comes, too, changed, as you are, by the dings and scars of the journey and the battle. Your faith can't emerge unscathed or untouched-- not if you've really fought."

Jeff Chu

In our human wars, wow! Absolutely true and so well put. In our spiritual battles, what do you think? Is it true that if your faith emerges, unscathed, you haven't fought? I would love discussion.

Picking Up My Shield,
Lonnie
