day no. 15,101: intent and context

"Effective execution of strategy requires an understanding of both its intent and its context" -- MCDP 1-1

In order to carry out orders, you need to understand what principles underlie the command and what parameters are in view.

Intent and context help define, "why" and "to what extent?"

The command is communicated in simple "whats", but effective execution of the strategy requires over-communicating vision beforehand in the form of the "whys" and "to what extents."

God's Word provides foundations and fences in order to clarify intent and context so that timeless truths can inform timely tactics.
