Bible Marginalia Series- #132
The WHOLE Armor of God.
Thinking about how sometimes
I may put on a bit here
and a bit there.
Have seen some wonderful drawings
depicting suits of armor
in the Bible Journaling groups online.
Then a recent worship service had-
EPHESIANS- Grace for Life
as a bulletin cover.
There's my page.
Torn and taped right into my Bible.
And summed up right there for me-
was this whole armor thing.
I am just covered in GRACE-
for my WHOLE life.
And when life seems a bit weary
and rough around the edges,
and attacks from the evil one
seem to be making head way.
I need to yell full throttle-
"ARMOR CHECK."
Because somewhere-
there is a GRACE leak.
Not in the Lord's provision.
EVER.
But, in my own awareness
of the belt, shield, or sword-
to be battle ready.
It is a red-alert time.
For by HIS Grace-
it is all there waiting and ready.
And by HIS Grace-
in my human frailness and forgetfulness-
He has already begun to armor dress me-
GRACE FOR LIFE.
So that I may STAND FIRM.
