If anyone else has a mind to put confidence in the flesh, **I far more:**5 circumcised the eighth day, of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the Law, a Pharisee;**6 as to zeal,** a persecutor of the church; as to the righteousness which is in the Law, found blameless.7 But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ. **Matt 12:20**20 "A BATTERED REED HE WILL NOT BREAK OFF, AND A SMOLDERING WICK HE WILL NOT PUT OUT, UNTIL HE LEADS JUSTICE TO VICTORY.**Heb 12:3**3 For consider Him who has **endured such hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.****Rom 8:26-28**26 In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; 27 and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.28 And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. **Warrior is a Child -- Twila Paris**Lately I've been winning battles left and rightBut even winners can get wounded in the fightPeople say that I'm amazingI'm strong beyond my yearsBut they don't see inside of meI'm hiding all the tearsThey don't know that I come running home when I fall downThey don't know who picks me up when no one is aroundI drop my sword and cry for just a while'Cause deep inside this armorThe warrior is a childUnafraid because his armor is the bestBut even soldiers need a quiet place to restPeople say that I'm amazingI never face retreatBut they don't see the enemiesThat lay me at his feetThey don't know that I come running home when I fall downThey don't know who picks me up when no one is aroundI drop my sword and cry for just a while (I cry for just a while)'Cause deep inside this armor (deep inside this armor)The warrior is a child**13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that the limb which is lame may not be put out of joint, but rather be healed.****Isa 40:3-4**3 A voice is calling, "Clear the way for the Lord in the wilderness; **Make smooth in the desert a highway for our God. 4 "Let every valley be lifted up, And every mountain and hill be made low; And let the rough ground become a plain, And the rugged terrain a broad valley;****Mark 1:2-3 (John the Baptist Ministry)**2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet: "BEHOLD, I SEND MY MESSENGER AHEAD OF YOU, WHO WILL PREPARE YOUR WAY; 3 THE VOICE OF ONE CRYING IN THE WILDERNESS, **'MAKE READY THE WAY OF THE LORD, MAKE HIS PATHS STRAIGHT.'"****Ps 46:1-3**God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea; 3 Though its waters roar and foam, Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride.**Heb 10:23-25**23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful;24 and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, 25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.**Matt 23:4**4 "They tie up heavy burdens and lay them on men's shoulders, but they themselves are unwilling to move them with so much as a finger.**Isa 35:3-4**3 Encourage the exhausted, and strengthen the feeble. 4 Say to those with anxious heart, "Take courage, fear not.
