STEEMCHURCH: The fight of the good battle

in #steemchurch7 years ago

Without blinking


source

During a civil war in Korea, a certain general advanced relentlessly with his troops, taking province after province, and destroying everything in his path. The people of a city, knowing that the general was approaching - and having heard stories of his cruelty - fled to a nearby mountain.

The troops found the empty houses. After much searching, they discovered a Zen monk who had remained in the place. The general ordered him to come before him, but the monk did not obey.

Furious, the general was where the monk was.

-You should not know who I am! he roared. I am the one who can pierce your chest with my sword, without even blinking!

The Zen master turned to him and answered calmly:

-You should not know who I am either. I am the one who can be pierced by a sword, without even blinking.

Hearing this, the general bowed, bowed, and retreated.


Reflection:

"Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called" 1Timothy 6:12

To fight the good fight of faith is to hold on to whatever happens, whatever happens; yes we keep advancing DESPITE OF, we will receive eternal life.


THANKS to our friend @SirKnight for the initiative to spread the gospel in steemit, showing the love of Jesus to many.
