Ephesians 6:17 NASB "And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." I was reminded of today's verse when I saw one of my grandsons put on a hockey helmet and grab his hockey stick! Although he is only 3, he knows what he needs to wear when playing hockey with grampa in the living room. I began to think of how a 3 year old knows the importance of wearing the protective gear and thought to myself, how many times have I gone out into the world without wearing God's Protection. We can read the entire list of gear in Ephesians but the key is whether or not we put it on! We can have all the protective gear but if we don't put it on, we are not ready to play the sport, be protected or even enter the game. Let's not enter the game of life without wearing God's Armor, it may just save us from defeat! peace, tom
