Wisdom Meditation

I was in a dilemma, and I began to realize I wanted more than the prescribed horsemanship offered for Unico within its lens of goals and competitiveness.

“Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.” THERE is but one kind of armour, brethren, which, after all is done, proves of any value, and that is the armour of God. It is only through putting on of this that a man, or a nation, is able to do that which the Apostle desires here that the Ephesians maybe enabled to do—namely, “to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand."
