Day 6

Today it seems like I have got nothing accomplished. We had paintball games today so most of the day was taken up by that. Then this morning was taken by Saturday inspection, and this evening was taken by fishing with cadets. so over all, its been a very busy day. As is most Saturdays. Though I must say things went much better today then they have in the past. I was very pleased. However, with all this going on it has pushed, once again, everything for this challenge to the night. yay.

Jesus Christ does not want to be our helper; He wants to be our Life. He does not want us to work for Him. He wants us to let Him do His work through us, using us as we use a pencil to write with.

Throughout history there have been several mighty warriors of Jesus Christ. Most Christians will read their stories with amazement and excitement, and wander to themselves why they can't live like they did. Which brings up an interesting question; What is so different between their lives and the lives of the average Modern Christian? The answer is something I have experienced recently, and is mentioned in the book I'm reading. An Exchange. The life the mighty Christians of old led aren't very different then the one you are living right now. They and their failures, and temptations, and everything else you are experiencing today. The difference, is they have made an Exchange. They have exchanged their lives for the life of Jesus Christ. "It is no longer I who lives, but Christ who lives in me."

This on is going to be short because I keep falling asleep.
