What duty one has in life depends greatly on where one is in life. Sometimes our duty is to our boss, and our wives or husbands. Or, perhaps, one has duties to fulfill for one’s country as a member of the armed forces. It is natural to think that duty is essential to our lives, but really, it is the result of our actions. It depends on who we are and what we are that gives us a life of duty. What we should expect from God is a life filled with a non – ending duty to him. We are duty – bound to follow him no matter how it goes, whether things get crazy or stable, we should be in his good graces no matter where the wind blows.
As we close our lives in this brief encounter with dark spiritual forces, we should remember that as soldiers in God, we are duty – bound to be in his good graces, and do our best to represent the best we can what he represents. God is indeed there, looking after us and everything we do, and it is not right for us to neglect him for any reason. It is more than acceptable to take time to relax, ponder, and evaluate who we are in God. We are duty – bound to remember his everlasting experience in what we do on Earth, and trust him no matter what happens here. We are duty – bound to be with him in the end, and as such, we need to be ever mindful of what we say and do each day.
