The Watchman

When you think of a “watchman,” what do you think of? Do you think of an elderly security guard who doesn’t actually secure much? What comes to mind? This is certainly where my inclination toward folk, fantasy, and fairytales comes in handy. *smile* I think of a lone man in a tower looking across the expanse. I think of a soldier keeping his late night or early morning watch. I think of an archer (an Old World sniper) keeping his post near a slitted window so he could put an arrow in anybody that didn’t declare themself and receive entrance. Watchmen play a strategic role in the Old World and specifically in the Bible. But they are not an antiquated concept. We are very much so in need of watchmen today: namely in the realm of the spirit.
