Girded Saints

Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 20, 2026

Girding precedes armor; readiness begins with being held together so faithfulness can endure pressure without collapse.

There is a kind of readiness that feels loud. It announces itself. It comes with urgency, energy, momentum. People speak faster. Plans multiply. Language sharpens. For a long time, many of us assumed that kind of readiness was faithfulness. If someone was energized, they must be ready. If ...read more
