Parade of Heroes!
Down the Path to the Well--a thought to remember along the way
Once upon a time there was a VERY little girl who stood excitedly along the street of a Small Town USA waiting for the parade. Would it never come! It did--with soldiers marching home triumphantly after World War II (TOLD you I was old...grin). My most distinct memory is of a very "food-enhanced" man wearing a hula skirt, waltzing down the street, as "the band played on!" I LOVE parades!
There's a grand and glorious parade in the pages of the Bible--check out Hebrews 11 and read about the "God-enhanced" heroes as they parade through Christian history--there's Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Rahab, Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, the prophets and more. Men and women who loved God supremely, who marched to the beat of a Different Drummer, who left for us a marvelous example....
For the band plays on......we're the marchers, endeavoring to keep in step with the music of heaven, as we move forward toward the end goal. Tired? Weary? Worn? Scarred? Sure--that's how soldiers may be, but they're committed to a cause, committed to a course, and committed to a crowning day--the day when the parade marches down the streets of gold, in triumph, splendor and victory.
March on, hero of heaven--God sees you, watches over you, guides you, and leads you on to His Heavenly Kingdom--where we will live happily ever after--in the presence of the King! Believe it--and have a very happy holiday weekend!
Delight in a Word from the Well--a refreshing in the Water of His Word
Draw from the Well--a prayer for renewing strength for this day
"Lord, I'm one of the heroes in the parade bound for heaven. I'm weary, worn, scarred and sometimes don't look or act much like a hero or a saint, but Lord, I'm hangin' in there. By your grace, I'm "bound for the Promised Land" where someday I will join with heroes down through the ages to honor the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Help me to be faithful--no matter what! In Jesus' Name, Amen."
