In honor of Veterans the small
congregation sang the hymn, “Onward, Christian Soldiers.” The pastor said, “There
are also veterans of the faith who are Christian soldiers in His kingdom. As a
military veteran (US Navy and Army National Guard), the comment gave me pause. A
veteran is someone who has had long experience in a particular field; however,
I’ve never applied that title to my Christian walk. The writer of Hebrews said, “Anyone
who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching
about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who
by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil” (Heb
5:13-14 NIV).
