That is because there is a constant spiritual war going on and the battles take place in the minds of the people. What starts a physical war? Normally an offense or pride being hurt, which is all in the mind. The daily battles we face are in our thoughts, in our minds, and the enemy has a lot of tactics but the main thing is causing offense in some way. The good news is that we have God on our side and if we lean into Him there is no battle that will not be won! He is the ultimate Warrior and will overpower any force that gets thrown at us, but because we all have free will we have to allow Him in the battle in order to experience victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe should be too big to take offense and too noble to give it.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-Abraham Lincoln<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHe who takes offense when no offense is intended is a fool, and he who takes offense when offense is intended is a greater fool.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;-Brigham Young<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dad Joke of the Day:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wife: \u201cWhy don\u2019t you stop telling bad dad jokes and write a book instead?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Me: \u201cThat\u2019s a novel idea\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let us go WIN our battles today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have an awesome Friday and weekend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good Morning! &nbsp; The Lord your God is in your midst, A Warrior who saves.
