Every Soldier a Missionary

I'm sure this 2-posts-per-day thing is going to settle down when the novelty wears off, but in the meantime I thought I'd slide in a link to an article I've just started reading. For any Salvationists reading - this should be doubly applicable!

Dispatch 1 from Project 614

I've got to admit, sometimes I feel pretty lonely. I'm a 'get up and act' type person... I'm not too big on planning (especially long-term) and while I can accept the need, I get very antsy when I feel a call from God to do something. I want to be doing it RIGHT NOW, RIGHT HERE. I'm married to someone who's naturally keen on planning and security, which I think is a good thing. But sometimes it feels lonesome when I'm on fire, have a vision in my head and want to GO! ... and everyone around me is pondering whether it's possible, and what steps we might need to put in place in order to make it happen, and whether we'd have enough people... ARGH!

Let me point out, I think both types of people are needed and valuable. It just gets frustrating when I want to be forging ahead at a million miles an hour. What do you want to bet, that comment will come back to bite me someday? I'll be asking God to slow down the thrill ride, and he'll remind me I was aching to go faster.
