Standing Firm

As I read this verse of the day -I Cor. 15:58 I wondered how well I was standing. It does get difficult to "Stand firm" at times when it seems everything is coming at us. However that is the time when you cannot let our faith waver regardless of how things seem crazy. You cannot run away and hide.  When things at the job get to you- "Stand firm".  When your children think you are the worse parent because you do not allow them to do what every other child is doing "stand firm" when your friends and relatives start to act funny for no reason "stand firm"
My encouragement to you today as you go about your daily activities is to stay focused. Keep your eyes riveted on the One who is able to keep you from falling. So don't get disturbed when that driver cuts you off- just thank God you were not involved in an accident.  When you go to work and say good morning and no one  responds- Just thank God you have a job and a voice to speak. When the school nurse calls for you to come and pick up your child who left home this morning and was well- thank God you have a child and a nurse who cares.  Believe it or not that is "standing firm", because you did not allow Satan to control how your day turned out. Be blessed.

In His Service,
