"For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord."
- Psalm 31:22-24
Dear Friends,
There are going to be those days when you feel like throwing your hands up in the air...you are trying to do your best but folks don't understand. Like the songwriter penned: "You prayed and you cried, prayed and you cried." There are those days when your best does not seem good enough.
Christians, yes we are. Spirit filled. No doubt about it. Determined to serve the Lord on the battlefield until our dying day. Hush your mouth. We are spirit filled Christians, clothed in the flesh surrounded by sin. We bleed. We hurt. And we encounter discouraging days.
But, WE GOT TO KEEP GOING! I am reaching for the bottom line. We must keep going. We have to keep moving. We must purpose in our hearts to cross the finish line. Do not stop. Do not quit.
Why not? The battle has already been won. The account is settled. Heaven is waiting. God is worthy. Jesus died for us. We are saved! We are children of the Most High God. As long as we are in the world we are the light of the world. We have a light to let shine. We have a God to glorify.
We got to keep going...
Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen. - Jude 24-25
Got to keep going...keep going...keep going...
in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie
