Like life in a story book where the Princess is rescued by the dashing Prince on his white horse after battling the rude Dragon & she lives happily ever after her nutty ordeal. The actions we take today, will be the fruits of our labor tomorrow & in our future. Getting a beat down by the nasty Dragon kills the human spirit if we let it. We must fight till the last drop, swing our sword high & true, shield ourselves from the incoming fire. Live to fight another day. 

Ephesians 6:14 through 17.
