Brothers in Arms...

Got together with 4 other guys tonight to just sit and talk a little about life and pray together. One initiated the meeting, and others followed. Times like these with my friends, laying our hearts on the table about so many things in our lives...these are the times that are sweet. These are the times that we come together to feed from the Heavenly table that Christ so graciously gives to us. I am thankful for these times, where we can sit down face to face and just open up to one another, to just be real before the sight of God. But these times are not always smooth or go without the attack of the evil one. Satan hates this. Satan despises when men get together as like iron sharpening iron and will begin to throw whatever he can at us to throw us off or disrupt.

God is bigger. He is more powerful and always prevails. His love for us, His love for our coming together, His desire to see us being real with one another. He protects us from the evil one, day and night, He watches over us when we are at our weakest state. Tonight we got together to talk and pray - there were disruptions, there were points of attack that we could all clearly see, but we pressed on as Christ would have us to. I am thankful for these brothers in arms, my friends and most of all, God.
