All,
I've been reading Tom Clancy's book Submarine.
At the training grounds in Groton, Con. the Navy has a saying:
" If you think training is expensive, try ignorance!"
I think as Royal Rangers we can apply this. How many campouts
do you think ended in failure, because the Commanders were not
trained? Likewise how many campouts had the boys wanting more?
Proper training is the key for the future of Royal Rangers.
Do you think the armed forces would turn any yahoo loose with
a M1A Arbams or a 688 without the proper training? Of course not.
But yet we sometimes allow men to lead boys that are poorly trained
or refuse to get training. Isn't of one the requirments for becomeing a
leader
to seek out training. But many refuse it, Why? "I've got work. I have the
knowledge.
I was a Boy Scout. I simply don't have the time."
While these are good reasons. It isn't the answer.
Do we refuse training from the Lord? If we do, he will still give it to
us.
Usually it's when we refuse the Lord's training we learn a thing or two the
hard way.
Later,
