Amen. Although we do not know what is ahead of us, but as long we continue to cling on to Him and put our hope in Him who is faithful regardless of the circumstance, and being patient in doing what He asks us to do, we'll be rewarded for our effort.
Hebrews 10:32-39 (New Living Translation)
Don't ever forget those early days when you first learned about Christ. Remember how you remained faithful even though it meant terrible suffering. Sometimes you were exposed to public ridicule and were beaten, and sometimes you helped others who were suffering the same things. You suffered along with those who were thrown into jail. When all you owned was taken from you, you accepted it with joy. You knew you had better things waiting for you in eternity.
Do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord, no matter what happens. Remember the great reward it brings you! Patient endurance is what you need now, so you will continue to do God's will. Then you will receive all that he has promised.
"For in just a little while,
the Coming One will come and not delay.
And a righteous person will live by faith.
But I will have no pleasure in anyone who turns away."
But we are not like those who turn their backs on God and seal their fate. We have faith that assures our salvation.
Dear Lawrence,
Thanks for stopping by and leaving your comments. I always appreciate them, as well as the fact that you take time to find and quote Scriptures in many of your comments. That is so good to know and to do, brother. And as for what you said here, amen. God blesses those who put their trust in Him (and yes, that's also an indirect quote from Scripture). *Grin* Thanks, brother, and God bless.
In Christ,
Brooke
