Dear Warrior

Dear Warrior,

News has recently reached our ears that the fighting has been fierce where you are stationed. We have heard the stories of your company’s great heroics in gaining ground previously held by the enemy. A great sense of pride has been unleashed here at home and has united all our hearts. The young men and even boys have this eager gleam in their eyes to join in the battle; they are ready to rise up and take their place along side their heroes and even now are consecrating themselves before the Lord and waiting for the Holy Spirit to bid them “go”.

You should see the way the young women look at their warriors, they are so proud of them, so eager to cheer them on. The love in their eyes barely rivals though, that of the wives of your men. Their eyes shine brightly with pride and joy in every story told, no matter how many times it is repeated. There is no fear there; for we all know that this battle is the Lord’s and He has already declared victory. Still, we all know that the enemy continues to try to take prisoners so everyone here is continually burning incense before the Lord, praying always for your strength, courage, clear minds and pure hearts.

There have been some small skirmishes here as the enemy has sent spies to test our weaknesses, and snatch our little ones. We are learning to be vigilant here too; keenly aware that the battle you fight is not in some distant land but very near. You would be delighted to see how the princesses are rising up to fight against the enemy forces. Who knew they were all warriors under their feminine exteriors! I think they are surprising even themselves.

Daddy wanted me to tell you that reinforcements are in route! Many will arrive before you even get this. He has given his angels charge over you and all has promised that victory and peace will be ours very soon, and to the Victor goes the spoils!

We all send our love to you and your men. I hope you will relay my affection to our dear Captain. (Though, I’m sure you know, I’ve sent him a personal message already.) My friends and I also compiled a small care package with hope that you will be refreshed by it.

All my love,

Sis

The LORD will be your confidence and keep your foot from being snared. Proverbs 3:26

The Lord will keep you from all harm, he will watch over your life. Psalm 121:7
