Falling. Getting back up. Continuing.That image is true. It captures something real about the struggle.But there’s another image that’s also true—and we forget it too often.We’re not just chasing after God. We’re already standing with Him.Think of a soldier on the battlefield. You’re not alone, desperately trying to reach your commander somewhere far away. You’re standing on His side, right now, alongside others who are committed to the same fight.You’re already with Him.That changes how you see the people around you. You’re not just fighting your way to heaven alone—you’re working alongside our Lord to help others get there too.Yes, you’re still pursuing heaven yourself. Yes, you’re still in the fight. But you’re not alone in the struggle, trudging toward a distant God.You’re standing with Him. Right now. Today.On His side. In His army. Part of His mission.That’s who you are.—Let us pray.Heavenly Father, thank You for letting us stand with You. Give us the courage to fight well, to serve You, to win others to You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.Keep fighting the good fight. Our Lady of Victory, pray for us. Get full access to The Victor's Crown at www.thevictorscrown.com/subscribe
