Waiting for something good
For a lot of people instant gratification wins out over faith all the time. It can be difficult to just "wait" for something good when we see others seemingly satisfied with what they don't wait for.
My wife is nearing the end of her pregnancy and we're about to welcome a new kid into this world. With all our kids we never found out what sex they were until they were born, well with the very real posibility that this one could be our last one, I'm anxious to see what it will be. Although the wait can be frustrating I know it will be worth it. Perhaps that's the way heaven will be like. Heaven is the greatest promise we could ever be given, yet we have to wait for it.
What is something you had to wait for... and you're glad you did? I'd be interested in hearing about it.

when a good soldier has fallen...
Jesus said in John 15:13, "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends." This is the ultimate act of love and devotion that anyone could do for someone. Soldiers will never forget the one's that made the sacrifice for them. In the Lord's Army we too have soldiers that have fallen, but their ultimate act wasn't done in a single scirmish but most often their sacrifice was displayed over time through their selflessness, through their loyalty to God's Kingdom. There are many that we know that have made an impact in our life, and we will never forget how they lived for God so boldly. Thankfully, in Christ, there really isn't an "end", but rather a brand-new beginning. As a good friend of mine said at the passing of his father, "[seeing that person again] makes the goal of heaven that much sweeter." I encourage you to live for Christ with all the passion you can muster, to love others the way God has loved each one of us.
